Unless you can find a way to become chief at one of the Orc camps.ġ1) Now that you are a soldier in a war you will be doing two things:1) Following the civil war questline slowly and 2) "Being creative" on how you are fighting the stormcloaks. The storaged you have is only what you and your follower can carry. You must keep it on you at all times along with the other things in point 4. Now its time for you to join the Empire.ġ0) You will be given a set of Imerpiral gear. Thus, get back to mining and blacksmithing to get that done.ĩ)You will discover these Orcs favor the Empirer. You'll have a great reward, you and your follower will have bad ass armor, you have places to mine from to increase you blacksmith even more, a place to lay your head, and three other followers you need to equip with weapons and armor. Its the one were youll have to turn in two items, which i wont say what they are, but it starts up something important.Ĩ)After that questline you should be feeling pretty dam good about yourself. Dont worry, its the only real quest that the strongholds give. In order to do this youll need to spend alot of times in the mines getting the ore.ħ)After you and your follower is equipped with Orish Armor, you are confindent that you can handle a quest that one of the strongholds have. Get an Orc follower and have you and your follower equiped with Orish Weapons and Armor. Once you find the Orc camps, thats the only place you can sleep now.Ħ)Once life at the strongholds begins youll want to make sure your blacksmith is at Orish. You may hire a temporary merc to help you with bounties when you can afford it.ĥ)Once you find the Orc strongholds, talk to every singal Orc and read every book in the living areas.
Thus, the goal is to get your blacksmithing up to Orish weapons and armor while you are searching for a stronghold and the way that you do that is by working. You must always carry an axe, bow, a pick, mining clothes, blacksmith clothes, clothes to hunt in, and clothes to travel through the city in (You'll find these along the way). This is the hard life in Skyrim, but the rewards are many. You are also not a City Orc, so no other side quest besides bounties. Thus, the ways you earn income in the mean time is by working the fields, chopping wood, mining, blacksmithing, doing bounties and hunting. It took me around 15 to 20 hours to find. You will need to survive until then and DO NOT go to wiki to find it. Your main objective is to locate one of the Orc strongholds. After you get out of Helgon, do not start the main quest.
You can get the resting bonus for sleeping in beds, however.ģ) No fast traveling except for public transportion, and from one Orc stronghold to another.Ĥ) You are crossing the border into skyrim because you want to find work at one of the Orc's strongholds as a miner. And DO NOT, use the warrior stone that makes you level up faster. If you can't spend the points save them until you can.Ģ) Put game on Master difficulty. Lets see how i do here.ġ) Create an Orc (duh) The only points your going to spend on perks is for Two Handed Weapons, Blacksmith, and Heavy Armor. After its all said and done you will be very happy with your Orc and what he has I promise. I've also done RP threads that were quite popular on Fallout 3 forums sometime ago.
#ORC STRONGHOLDS SKYRIM MAP HOW TO#
You may be asking yourself what makes me think i have the know how to run an RP guide? I'll just say this: I've put more than 200 hours of time in the game with over 4 different charactors and classes and i've found a way to play on my own without the help of internet aid, and its a way of playing i HIGHLY recommend. This maybe considered if your stuck on trying to figure out what to do on another play through. I'll write a brief guide on how to create a believable and very rewarding start for an Orc. Therefore, if you don't like what you read thats fine, blast me for that, but, DO NOT say crap like: "You have to make ways to have the game balanced and make it fun cause its broken." You see, crap like that pissess me off not because its rude, stupid and ungrateful, which it is all those things, but rather its pissess me off because its a LIE and the people that preach such none sense are they themselves are the ones who are broken. I've posted twice on these boardes and already ignorant people take the thread out of context just to find a ways to insult the game. Those of you that are still stuck in complaining mode about Skyrim's short comings, rather than exploring all that it has to offer, is not welcome here. ****(Be warned: This content is only interesting for people that like to roleplay and that have learned how to balance out personal gameplay with the world. I've made a guide on how to create a real and functional orgin story of an Orc, enjoy.
