This can be very effective for indoor climbing, but when climbing mountains outside, just be sure there's something solid in front of you or you might overshoot and fall right off the other side. Keep in mind that Whirlwind Sprint moves you forward horizontally, not up slopes. You won't gain any height using this shout, but you can avoid losing height getting from one ledge to another if there isn't a traversible slope between them.
Just make sure you're facing the right direction, or you might find yourself in mid-air with a long drop below you. Saving judiciously before such a stunt is highly recommended.
With the Dawnguard add-on, the Vampire Lord 's Bats ability serves a similar function. This shout won't help you much when climbing up a mountain, but it can be a useful way of climbing down very quickly. Use the shout before you jump off a cliff, and you can avoid all falling damage when you land.
Be careful if you have a companion, however, as they may attempt to follow you and possibly fall to their death. Needless to say, you can't shout from horseback, so this is another argument for staying on foot while climbing. Unfortunately, this technique cannot be used to save you after you are already falling, since you can't shout in mid-air unless you fell without jumping. The werewolf form's natural speed and leaping abilities make it well suited for climbing, but the short duration and once-daily limit to transforming make it somewhat impractical.
Using the Ring of Hircine eliminates the once-per-day limitation, making it somewhat more viable, but you still need to keep the duration in mind or risk changing back at an inopportune moment the duration can be extended by feeding, of course, but you won't find many people to feed on up in the mountains, so this is not much help. With the Dawnguard add-on, you can gain the ability to transform into a Vampire Lord. In this form, you have about the same movement speed as a werewolf, and when sprinting, you can move even faster - as fast as a horse, in fact, with none of the maneuverability difficulties.
This uses up stamina , of course, and if you're climbing in the daytime, it won't regenerate, so you'll either need to wait for nightfall, or have some other means of regenerating it the Respite perk in the Restoration tree is useful for this.
Alternatively, if you've acquired Auriel's Bow , you can use a Bloodcursed Arrow to blot out the sun before climbing. Note that regular vampires do not gain any such advantages, only those with the Vampire Lord form. In addition, the Vampire Lord's Mist Form power allows for a similar effect to the Become Ethereal shout, negating falling damage. This should allow you to move farther up the mountain.

I've modded it. I've looked inside its editor to find out what makes it tick. And it turns out there's escapism in predictability and order.
Our world is chaotic to the point of feeling random. The relationship between cause and effect is so cosmically vast as to be beyond human understanding. In games, though, it can be reassuring to see the edges of a world; to find the limitations of the simulation. If you know what a game can be—if you understand its rules and design—you can also create tricks to turn it to your advantage. In games, you can run at a cliff until you reach the top. What could be more empowering than that?

The frost troll is the worst if you don't have any fire enchanted weapons or decent fireball abilities. Originally posted by roninbernie :. Omgwtfbbqkitten View Profile View Posts. Go to Riften and get a free horse by doing Shadrs Debt quest and just ride up the side of the mountain.
I am only using one-handed weapons until my one-handed skill is , then I will switch over to two-handed. The fights might become more fair again when I do. Like x 1. Benthos Proud Mer. I'll have to try those locations, but I've found that banging on the Y button constantly while walking sideways can get me up some pretty sheer stuff. I struggle more with the smooth slopes that don't have any footholds.
Alissa DeWitt Beer Wench. Roads are for wusses. I just about always climb, usually to get to dragon shrines. Of course I have the compulsion to fill in as many locations on my map as possible even if it takes me forever to get somewhere. I call it Skyrim ADD. You must log in or sign up to post here.
