Can You Beat Skyrim With Only Daedric Artifacts? 

There's gonna be the biggest lawsuit in Nirn for which daedric lord should get the dragonborn's soul after they die

13:25 Gotta love how this lady effectively gaslights you into believing that you had once eaten someone and blocked out the memory. If I recall, she actually has a necklace that improves speechcraft and likely it's meant to imply that she was using her own Speech skill on you.

34:26 the fact that Sanguine himself shows up just to beat the hell out of a couple mages that were in the way of you retrieving Meridia's Beacon is hilarious. A Daedric Lord popping in to bully some mortals for a demi-god he just had a drink with is such a ridiculous but funny course of events. Sanguine really is biggest bro of all the Daedric Lords sometimes

One thing you should always remember is that Markarth is just Skyrim's Brazil. There is a big economical diffrence between rich and poor, it has a high murder rate, there's corruption, there's shady mining operations and they have cool vibes

A Daedric weapon being weaker than soup actually sounds about right for the Elder Scrolls.

"Like every sentient creature in Skyrim who has the ability to speak, he of course asks for my assistance." Congratulations Nerbit, you just summarized 95% of the gameplay loop in a total of 19 words.

Imagine being in the Hall of Valor. Various heroes are around you, telling their heroic tales. Then, a voice speaks up from the back of the hall. "What, Dragonborn, was the true key to your success?" You take a moment to think, before saying "vegetable soup, of course." The mysterious figure laughs. "Of course." Then, they step forth, and reveal themselves to be Ysgramor

A really funny part about the Sanguine Rose quest is that even if your already married to Yosolda, she still congratulates you on your engagement

Fun fact about the Ebony Blade! There's an easy way to charge it without killing 10 people you may not want to. You must not do the Lights Out! quest, and you need the ritual stone. Get your ebony blade, do the quest normally, and then when Deeja betrays you, kill her with the blade. Res her with the ritual stone, and then kill her again. Repeat until Mephala is satisfied, being careful not to decapitate her otherwise you won't be able to revive her again. Boom, fully charged blade and no major alterations to the world!

If you Ever need a dedra heart ever again for whatever reason nerbit, go to the companions their leader just has one laying out in the open

42:15 Skyrim items are first loaded into the database with their base image as a bucket. They are changed individually based on what the item and item class is supposed to be.Mysterium Xarxes has no burned version of itself so it reverts to bucket. Red eagle's sword also does this.

Classic. Now do this in Oblivion

The fact that Mehrune's Razor has a chance to instantly kill Alduin in *both* fights is really funny. I feel like it probably shouldn't work, but... I guess It Just Works (tm)

Sanguine chilling and breaking some spines reminds me of the time Meridia casually stopped talking to me while I was in the air with her so we could both take on a random dragon encounter. It was certainly wild.

I think the reason that you can light the beehives without casting flames is so you don’t get detected while sneaking if you want to be stealthy in the quest and not using a torch that can make you visible from the light

Making deals with Daedra can never go wrong.

If you ever need to get the blood for discerning the transmundane again, there's a dungeon called Liar's Retreat where you can get all but Altmer blood.

I actually tried this run myself, and I picked a character that would be quite fitting for collecting mythical fantasy artifacts. Purveyor of fine fairy tale relics himself: Mr Big Jack Horner. "Yeah, I couldn't get this beacon off it, but still pretty cool, right?" I ended up going the extra mile and grabbing Wuuthrad, Staff of Magnus, Blade of Woe, Auriel's bow, and all of Miraak's gear. They might not all be Daedric artifacts, but Mr Horner is a thorough collector.

As I sit here eating a bowl of Shin black ramen with extra mushrooms, bone broth, soy sauce, garlic, and a boiled egg I can confirm there is nothing more magical or powerful than a bowl of soup.

Just came across this channel and it reminds me a lot of mitten squad, glad to see someone else doing Skyrim and fallout challenges but R.I.P Paul of mitten squad hope he’s having a wonderful day😔

The concept of a Mythic Dawn museum is so baffling lmao. Imagine if someone opened a museum in memorial of John Wilkes Booth

People consistently underrate how dangerous Peryite is. They love theorizing about the falmer taking over, but a single rogue Peyite leader has an entire army of plague carriers just waiting to wreak havoc on the surface. Orchednor is also the only enemy in Skyrim that’s 100% immune to shock damage.

Volendrung actually wasn’t forged by Malacath! It was forged by a Dwemer clan who left Vvardenfell due to being angry that Dumac allied with the Chimer. Some Orisimer probably simply found it when the Redguards pushed them out of Hammerfell into the Western Reach.

37:10 I love this combo. A flashy, two handed finish to turning around and standing still for an hour

Nearly spit out my drink see barbas being hit by a giant boulder. Excellent commentary good sir 10/10

"I am Alduin, first born of Akatosh!" "Ah yes but do you have a license for getting stabbed?" "What?" *gets Razor-stabbed*

Can you beat fallout 4 as the milkman? Postman outfit, junk jet and milk bottles. Bring the wasteland Calcium!

Just an FYI if it’s necessary in future runs… there’s just a daedric heart lying around in Jorvaskarr. I believe in the same room that Kodlak and Vilkas are in at the start.

If you ever do this challenge in Oblivion, the Gray Cowl that you receive for completing the Thieves Guild questline is a Daedric Artifact belonging to Nocturnal.

"Can you beat Fallout: New Vegas as a Lobotomite?" -can only wear clothes that drop from Lobotomites. -can only use weapons that drop from Lobotomites. -1 Intelligence -1 Charisma -must leave your brain at Big MT. -i guess technically you can use common Wastelander gear until you get to Big Mt, since at least some of the Lobotomites were Wastelanders before the brain surgery.

I was gonna make a snarky comment about how "Well, he got the black star, which technically isn't a Daedric artifact, it's been corrupted past their influence" But egg on my face, cuz when I look it up, even the achievement says it's strictly better, because it counts for the Oblivion Walker achievement. Man, Azura's Star really IS useless.

I know what I’m doing for the next hour

Couple notes For the black star when you absorb a soul it is checking if the soul can be contained within the gemstone, theoretically a black soul gem can contain a white lesser soul and it’d be a lesser soul gem. The black soul gem therefore can absorb any soul and fuel a soul. Just thought you should know. Also for the ebony blade if you use the standing stone that gives you the the ability to raise a dead body every day you can keep resurrecting the same follower to fuel the blade, handy and works in anniversary

Hearing the fable soundtrack in a skyrim video is so funny especially since it fits pretty well honestly

After getting these brief summaries of all these quests, it just keeps making me think of a joke from Dungeon Dynamite: "That's not going to do anything! To fix the economy, you must head east to the Dungeon of Greed and defeat the wicked Economancer who lives inside!"

If you tell Barbus you are busy, he makes fun of you, then says meet me at haemars shame when you feel like doing something useful, and you can just fast travel to the shrine and use the in game wait function for barbas. EDIT: Oh my god you got so lucky not looting the chest in morvunskar before you ran into the portal. I did that one time when I couldn't beat the mages, and if you grab meridia's beacon from the chest and run into the portal to the misty grove while meridia's dialogue is still going, it halts her dialogue and breaks the quest completely.

You know they say that Boethiah is the god of Betrayal, so you know what else fits the theme of betrayal? Playing through Fallout 4 as Revolver Ocelot Nothing but pistols, and betraying every faction Side with everyone until you destroy the institute (there is a guide for having all the main three factions getting along to destroy the institute, and part of the railroad is going undercover and betraying the institute so, yeah), HOWEVER, dont rush destroying the institute, because you can side with everyone in Far Harbour, then destroy all their factions by first nuking and shutting off the first lot, then, telling the institute about arcadia but yeah, then you can betray all the factions with the Minute men helping then betray the minute men with the Nuka World raiders taking over sanctuary and the fort THEN betraying the Nuka Raiders in the end.

Oblivion Walker™ moment.

I love it when Yamarz goes to face the giant chief and then goes to space.

You can get both hircine's ring and the saviors hide. Spare sinding, get the ring, go back inside the cave, kill sinding, get the hide. Skyrim my beloved.

0/10 did not begin with Volgin saying "Sorry for the delay!"

I always enjoy your longer videos. I enjoy getting to watch them and play a game at the same time

omfg.... I've spent over a decade playing this game at this point but 5 minutes in and my world is shattered. It never once occurred to me to run an npc out of magika during ward spells.... so many magic builds that suffered for nothing

Day 1 of asking nerbit to beat fallout new vegas as Doctor Zero from Old World Blues. - Complete old world blues: leave your body parts in the big mt and solve doctor zero's name issues. - Can only use LAERs and metal armors. - Must break every single breakable machine in the mojave. Good luck!

According to the wiki Auriel's bow counts towards the daedric artifact achievement despite being an aedric artifact, so if anyone wants to do this run you have a ranged option

My fav "razor moment" was in Oblivion. I played on max Dif- so 6 x less damage delt, 6 x more damage taken. I was way in the lategame, and I just came around to complete Arena questline. The final boss of the arena, gray orc, just found out he is a child of a vampire and lost will to live. At the time of the fight I was Sheogorath, with full madness set and almost all Daedric artifacts, including Staff of Command (or order? i dont remeber, one from Shimmering Isle DLC) At the begging of the fight Ive used it to freeze all enemies in place with loud booming *STOP*. It turns out, that gray orc has dialoge when you walk over to him when he is frozen, he said something in a line of: "Please, cant you see I dont want to live, just get it over with already" I said to myself, - well ok... took out the razor and it proced on first hit. In universe, people watching the fight must have felt like they blinked and gray orc was dead, because they would be frozen by Staff of Command too...

Me: Huh, what's Lover's Lab? Me, 2 minutes: Oh... Why am I surprised?

I absolutely HATE the Merida dungeon boss, his "spell" is just a shout only he can cast, and always one shots me

I'll be honest, the best time I had in the thieve's guild was teaming with Mercer and watching the guildmaster of the sneaky boy guild charge in yelling only to get spam-fused by all the Draugher Death Lords while I sit back undetected

Fable soundtrack over Skyrim gameplay is a combination I didn't know I needed

"besides, I have been to Loverslab" You poor soul, lol

I usually end up turning in the skeleton key because after hours of looting everything that isn’t nailed down (and several things that are), i tend to have hundreds of lockpicks so i will never run out for the rest of the playthrough anyways

You know something stupid happened when Nerbit starts with "ok, so"

I know this has nothing to do with the video, but I always give a sigh of relief whenever I hear the Fable OST, great music choice!

Something I always do when following Barbus for that quest is just wait a few hours and he'll teleport to the cave he's leading you to

Calling the lockpick a deadric artifact means you invalidated the run by using a lockpick to escape jail (per your logical regarding soul gems)

Now, This, is a certified hood classic

Can you watch Nerbit with only a hangover? Answer: YES. 😂

No but the standoff with Janessa thing just to kill her is actually insane daedra behavior

Idea for a run: CYBF4 as The Ghoul from fallout tv Show. Perks: •rifleman •rad resist •chems resist •ghoulish •cannibalism •gunslinger •bloody mess Armour: •drifter outfit •millitia hat Weapons: •pipe revolver •44 revolver •combat knife •lever action rifle Aid: •any chems •tatos •eating corpses

Oblivion's rat quest for the fighters guild is actually more subtle than the thieves guild quest in Skyrim. In the fighters guild quest you are trying to find out what/who is killing the rats. Storytelling is my jam. I loved your whole essay, very entertaining. Thank you for the hard work and comedy talent.😊

A New Vegas run in which you just collect all the unique weapons and use those? Man, other than the "you can't kill anything without a named item in hand" starting bit of these runs, you literally just described every single one of my Bethesda open world RPG playthroughs. I don't remember the last time I played Morrowind without rushing to the Boots of Blinding Speed followed shortly by ransacking Tel Fyr and its half dozen legendary items literally just stashed in a closet somewhere or sitting right behind weird quarantine wizard Divayth.

that guard's reaction really got me plus the thing you did after the first made it hilarious!

Exact same thing happened to me on my very first playthrough of Skyrim, with Alduin and Mehrunes Razor. Was a very pleasant surprise.

Possible Skyrim Challenge: Can you beat Skyrim as a soul collector? - Go through all Major quest lines (Story, Civil War, Dark Brotherhood, Daedric, etc) - Any NPC you are tasked to kill (both mandatory and optional) must be soul trapped into Azura's Star. This only applies to named NPCs. - Take whatever weapon the NPC has on them and use the soul in Azura's star to enchant the weapon - Put weapon on display in a player home (Bloodchill Manor is reccomended)

Fun fact, you can actually get both the Rueful Axe and Masque of Clavicus Vile with at least a slow time level two shout. Also my favorite weapon combo is the windbreaker with Mehrunes Razor.

0:13 Nerbit if you do collect all unique weapons in new Vegas, I got some advice for that video. Every single time I play NV that’s exactly what I do, I don’t know why but I do. What I recommend is start the game by going after the lower leveled gear such as Maria or Figaro. Then as you get into mid game go for the middle grade gear such as This machine or Paciencia then lastly the high end gear. Obviously you don’t have to take my advice but if you do I hope it helps!

"At risk of getting a 1 back and sides" has me rolling ngl.

8:55 Yeah, but Azura’s Star being upgraded is clearly all a part of Azura’s plan, so I always bring it back to her.

For those who don't know, you can wait while following Barbus and he'll just teleport to the cave you need to go to. I do this is all my runs

I've played Skyrim so many times, but I always devolve to a stealth archer. Also; R.I.P Mitten Squad, I will always miss your videos whenever I watch a Skyrim challenge.

Falion in Morthal and the fence at the college of winterhold are usually selling at least 1 daedra heart the first time I meet them in a playthrough.

For another challenge idea, can you beat Skyrim as Iron Man? Can only use gear under the Iron smithing tab, and nothing else. If you want to take it literally, iron armor and only magic so you can be Tony Stark. Since there is no Iron Bow, however, you can use a Longbow instead

There's a daedra heart spawn in the companion's dorm rooms. It's where I always go for that Orc quest!

you did an excellent job dishcushing the ongoing hoshtilitiesh with farengar

Man bringing up the dreaming about going to school only to wake up and have to go for real gave me PTSD i havent felt in a good long while

To be fair to the Thieves Guild, the whole sidequest of doing jobs, rebuilding the influence as well as the Ragged Flagon and collecting random shit to sell to devin for your trophy case is actually the cooles RP thing about skyrim. Somehow

For the fallout I would love to see almost like a gun game sort of thing, basically only using most recently acquired legendary at any one time. Makes the run a little more interesting.

My favorite part of this video was when he said "It's Nerbin time!" and Nerbed everywhere. Truly one of the RU-vid videos of all time.

I really just want to see Nerbit play through Skyrim, Oblivion, and the Fallout games the way he would actually play. No restrictions, no character in mind, just Nerbit

Nerbit, i've been a fan of yours since the beginning. I've watched every video you've put out, and thoroughly enjoyed em. With that being said, your accent murders me in my sleep and makes me cry laughing. You opened the video with "but first, RIZZ"

I know you went to the bandit camp for the experience, but if you ever want to do Ysolda's quest quickly, there's a mammoth tusk behind where Hulda stands at the inn in Whiterun. You can easily steal it and give it to Ysolda without even leaving town.

“You’re an idiot if you take the Black Star” My companion Aranea disagrees. A black soul gem? Few thousand septims. Walking artillery that is the adept and expert level spells she has? Priceless.

I've read online somewhere (I can't recall where; I'm sorry) that the reason the Mysterium Xarxes (and other objects) turn into buckets when burned, is that there is no "burned Mysterium Xarxes" object, and bucket is some kind of "default" item.

Going off the ear wax bit from the video, as a kid I didn't clean my ears. One day I scratched the inside of my ear and dislodged a wax plug from my ear. I could suddenly hear much better out of that ear. Kinda funny how gradual the hearing loss was that I didn't even notice it until it was gone.

God I fucking love this guys content. Absolute peak sleep videos. Also do it in oblivion, and make it like a 3 hour video, so that my sleep content is sorted for weeks. Thanks.

In case you need to grind levels for another video - Dragonsreach is great for Sneak. Get in, up the stairs and to the right "balcony" overlooking the dining hall. Crouch down, run into the railing and watch the levels go up. Great video as always 💪🏻

Another argument for the Skeleton Key, it isn't properly unbreakable (unless my game was incredibly bugged), it just remakes itself. You still get the broken lockpick animation and the lock resets. By the time you get the Skeleton Key, you have hundreds of lockpicks in your inventory

I love how even tho the free ebony boots *could* be counted as an extra gift from Boethiah, you absolutely refused to use them and just took on the World-Eater barefoot (also love the idea of Delphine having to take a barefoot maniac seriously)

I have an idea for a new series that I think you and people might like for longer videos. Remember when Nerbit completed all of metal gear solid before the old man died of old age? Why not just use the concept for all the elder scrolls games and fallout games? He has to complete the series before the old man dies.

It's a good day when Nerbit uploads a 40+ min video

Can you beat Skyrim as Pelinal Whitestrake reincarnated? Be an imperial or nord, use the crusader gear, side with the Empire and kill any elf (particularly any high elves) that have the misfortune to fall under your gaze, using little to no stealth as he was a zealous barbarian type. Do any quests that support humans and the Empire as a whole. Use your judgement if Whitestrake would do any of the stormcloak/blades quests but make sure that the Empire he helped defend from the filthy elves stays in power.

I have awaited this day. Glorious Let's GOOOOOOO

My most favourite playthrough of Skyrim ever, was doing this challenge with only Dwemer Artefacts. 10/10 recommend.

39:36 The Courier is fast, the Jarl even faster😂

A good description for azura's star and the black star. azura's star is a infinitely reusable grand soul gem, the black star is supposed to be a infinitely reusable black soul gem that only steels black souls but is actually a infinitely reusable black soul gem.

Id argue the Nightingale Armor is also a Deadric Artifact, its armor you get in exchange for entering a Deadras service after all

Just when the voices stopped, thank you.

I have a fun challenge… a bandit loot only challenge… so you can only use items looted from bandits… or to elaborate further the only thing in the entire game you can loot is bandits, no forsworn or npc’s ect! This includes chest and any gold not found on bandits (unless gold is a quest reward) If you given an item as a quest reward you have to drop straight away the only exception is if an item can’t be dropped e.g an elder scroll! You also can’t use any sort of magic. Apart from maybe healing spells… otherwise it would be pretty much like a normal game of Skyrim.

A funny thing about Orchendor, the mage you fight for Peryite's quest- he is entirely unique in that he has a 100% magic immunity, for some reason I still can't fathom all these years on. This means he's immune also immune to the effects of enchanted weapons, hence him being completely unbothered by the damage magicka effect on the Mace of Molag Bal.
