What Oblivion skills do you use in real-life?

Post by Josjie »

Inspired by the "How old are you" topic in the General Banter forum :D. But this belongs here.

What Oblivion skills do you use in real-life?

For me it's:

Acrobatics (a lot)
Athletics (a lot)
Marksman (every week)
Sneak (at school, regularly :D)
Security (see ^)
Alchemy (chemistry, usually Restore Health potions :lol:)
Speechcraft (needs no explanation)
Mercantile (..)
Light Armor (it's summer after all)

Please try to keep this on-topic. If you've got something to say that's off-topic, please use the off-topic BBcode. Do not post replies that only contain off-topic content.

So:

[offtopic]Off-topic text goes here[/offtopic]

EDIT: If any of the other mods think this is a spam flooding topic, which I think it isn't since we also have the Oblivion Trivia topic etc, feel free to move it to the General forum so it won't give us a higher forum count. But I think it belongs here since it's about Oblivion.

Uh...

Hm...

Er...

Is there a skill that would cover Coding/Developing/Scripting? >.>
Light Armor.
Mercantile. (Every now and then, I devise plans to sell this game for that. If that counts.)
Speechcraft.

Er... That's it. :p

Oh really? Image
That does explain a lot...

Athletics
It's a pretty low skill at the moment, but I'm working on it with running a few times a week.
Long Blade (yes.. morrowind skills)
I've been training myself in er.. "sword fighting" since I was small. Assuming you've no idea what you're doing, I'm pretty good at it.
Security
My dad used to be hours late when I came home from school, so I had to learn to break in..
Sneak
This skill is maxed out. Trust me.. if I don't want you to know where I'm at.. you won't :wink:
Illusion
Just to help the above skill a bit in more.. critical situations.

Mercantile
Heavy Armor Okay, the spikes on mine are much shorter, but you get the point.
Athletics
Destruction (In conjunction with alchemy, plastic kitchen gadgets cannot withstand me!)
Mercantile
Speechcraft

Marksman when I play Halo 3. When I play Soulcalibur, blade, athletics, agility, acrobatics. Mitsurugi FTW!!!!!!
