Make the cheapest restoration, armor and destruction spells you can and buy some time at an inn and spam the spells, sleeping when needed until, until your magic levels are like, 60-70.

Go make actual spells with your new levels and bam, practically invisible.
Save in the in before entering any jewlers in town and reload and check all until you get two saphires or diamonds. Enchant them for bonus magic in all four seasons, easy +200 mana. Also if you didnt select 3x mana, restart.

Adding

Enchanting your robe with armour or cast shield, or both, is highly advisable.

Buy levitation and agility up, for haste, and fly around. Its fun.

For help with Mages guild.

Save infront of quest giver. Ask for quest and reload until gaurd duty is given. Do this quest like, 15-20 times then travel to a differnt town and talk to a member of the guild. You'll jump up a few ranks. Id keep at it until you unlock the teleporter or atleast the enchantment maker.

>>4122495
I managed to make a redgaurd mage with all armour and weapons restricted work and complete the game with ease. If you have any further questions, just ask.

Also, make a cheap teleport and exploit it. Use it to warp back to quest giver upon completion. Combine with guild teleporter for 1 day travel quest completion Use it to escape paralysis, if youre not immune.

You don't need to reload, there are actually no reputation penalties for turning down a quest, just for failing it after accepting to do it.

Recall spell

>>4123501
hug right wall, refer to map often, and tap activate constantly. when you kill your target, you get a dialog box then recall out.

>>4123653
Is this works for every dungeon? or just few of them?

>>4123747
Most of them. You will need to be able to adapt and improvise. A few tips

Drop a recall outside the dungeon, or at its entrance.
Search for levers, tapestry, chairs and other props can be levers
Look up. Often when you are stuck, the path is above or below you.
Save before entering red brick doors. They can lead to dead ends.

Is it worth playing this game in 2017? I would wanna try and play it through wine on Linux so I can use my laptop. Should I bother? Or is it very bad? I used to try and play Morrowind when I was a kid but the jumping eyeballs and shit scared me, because I was a pussy at 11. The only other elderscrolls game I have ever played was Skyrim.

I do like advanced games, and RPGs, but I just wanna know the ui/controls/graphics holds up at all today.

It's an awesome yet crappy game. Yes it is very bad. It's riddled with terrible flaws--bad design decisions, inept programming, bad UI design, bad audiovisual choices (especially audio). It's awful.
But it's also good enough (in some ways) to make up for that... for some players. You might hate it and you might love it. It's worth trying I guess. But be ready to have a bad experience with it and then come back to some forum or other to learn how to have fun in it.

The magic creation system looks badass, and the fact that it's huge is cool. At this point I want to go back to something, and I'm wondering about Morrowind, but man that hasn't age well either.

It did have cool magic and shit though. I should look up Morrowind graphics mods.

I started using Daggerfall setup, but by default, this version of Daggerfall uses the newer 16 bit versions of the songs that play in the background. I prefer the 8-bit versions that played on the regular version, what would I type in the Daggerfall config file to get the 8 bit versions of the songs to play like it did on the regular version?

>>4127485
They're not older or newer versions of the songs; Daggerfall always had both and it played the lower or higher quality versions based on your sound card. You should be able to get whatever versions of the songs you want by changing the emulated sound card and/or running the audio configuration tool (through DOSBox of course), which is SETUP.EXE in your Daggerfall directory. I'm not sure specifically what sound card you would need to emulate or select for which versions of the soundtrack, however.

>>4123501
If you're not a filthy mage who recalls out of everything in the most lazy way possible, get used to the map controls. Once you have a good grasp of the map and especially the custom note system, it becomes impossible to get lost except in the case of a few rare traps that teleport you. Even then if you have your wits about you you'll still be fine if you start heading to whatever appears to be the nearest location you've already explored so you can map the path between the teleporter and its destination.

>How to make you custom class in 2:00hrs!!!

>>4131563
I don't think I've ever used a default class in any TES. Daggerfall's class creation allows for so much customization that it feels weird not to take advantage of it.
