School's in session, so parking sucks still

Jan 08, 2007 10:55

Yeah, I had to park in the garage. I only have a contract to stay at EHS for 3 months, so no point in getting a faculty pass. My grandmother is on the board at TMH and called to tell me they may have an opening for lab techs there. That would be awesome as Micro lab was one of my favorite labs ever. I have to follow up with EB, Petland, and ( Read more... )

just so you know the only good thing about working for EB is the discount, that's it. I've put in 3+ years and managed to get screwed even after i've raised the concerns I had. Don't wasted your time there.

Thanks for the tip, but this was strictly temporary.

How the hell did you get so good? I go around leveling my skills and everything, but by the time I get to a certain point (around 70ish with my skills or so) the monsters get SO DAMN STRONG I can't kill them without the old "hit with an arrow, run like hell, hit with an arrow, run like hell" trick...which never works in a dungeon, nor in groups of monsters. Bloody spider-demon-woman thingies by the crapload swarmed me at the FIRST OBLIVION GATE! (Mind you I'm the "let's do every side-quest and level up constantly, steal everything I can, ect" kind of guy, but still, that's bullcrap!) I heard it's something to do with the un-patched version of the game, and since I don't have net at my house I can't update, but still...there's got to be something you're doing differently.

Well, I play a Khadjiit, and I started with thieve's guild missions to get sneak and security up, then the Dark Brotherhood to get blade and sneak up more, now fighter's guild to get more attack skills. I was always stealing to get money to buy better equipment but mostly I bought training from people. Alchemy was another cash cow for learning to make good potions and even the bad ones sell well. Learning the mini games for speech craft and lockpicking severely helped in saving gold on lockpicks and bribes. I don't know, this is one game I can power game like hell. Also in combat in dungeons, I use arrows mostly too but I make sure I have a spot to hide so I shoot and hide real quick and they never know where I'm hittin from. Also, invisibility potions come in handy in case you get swarmed to fall back and do it again. As for Oblivion gates, I did the same thing, I started on my second and I had to fight Daedroths, Dremora fags, Spider bitches, and all sorts of crap too. Same techniques work, and it helps I found cool swords ( ... )

I usually go with a Wood Elf...I know you hate elves, but the resistance to disease is awesome, and the archery bonus doesn't get any better than they have. I guess my problem is I get too focused on one thing with a character, like magic or sneak, pump all my skills into it, and then get disappointed when I join a faction or whatever that doesn't specialize in it. I had a Breton Mage that I was doing AWESOME with, had gotten far in the mage's guild quests, the main quest, and the thieves guild, but I got some damn disease that kept me from regenerating mana off of a hopped-up headless zombie on crack, and didn't realize it until AFTER I had saved over my game!!! Had to delete it ( ... )
