How Long Does It Take To Be A Millionaire In Oblivion? 

Honestly, you found a treasure far more valuable than 1 million dollars: an adoring fan.

I remember wanting to be rich in Oblivion, so I bought the house in Skingrad and got the maid who would give you a free pie every time you spoke with her. I got my alchemy up to full so that I could create potions using one ingredient. I solicited hundreds of pies from this poor lady, made hundreds of potions and named them all viagra, and sold them to the local vendor for bank. The potions were too heavy of course but if you drop them all at once they drop as a single item which you could then hold telepathically in the same way you can move bodies around. I did this up until the door, picked them back up, became over-encumbered, went through the door, and dropped them again. I became the most successful viagra salesman known in the Elder Scrolls and retired soon after.

Imagine being a Bandit in Oblivion, worrying about the next time the Bandit Leader places you in a dungeon that keeps being cleared out. The day arrives for you to be stationed there. If someone enters or exits, you know it's none of you. But you hear it. The door opening. The sound of 400 pounds of armor stomping through the doorway. Ridding all of Tamriel of bandits. Why? Just to sell the armor he rips from your dead corpse. For a meme.

“And here we have Jabo who bravely slaughtered the countless marauder warlords. Tell us Jabo what motivated you to go in this quest to vanquish these great evils from the world.” “Money.”

I ain’t gonna lie, if you did a Millionaire Series for the Witcher 3 Wild Hunt you’d be an even bigger God.

There's actually a better merchant to sell to who is available very early on if you have the Fighter's Stronghold addon (Battlehorn Castle). They're a Dark Elf that can be found in the Merchants Inn, which can be found in the Imperial City's Market District. The dude has 2,000 Gold and very quickly gains disposition with the player (meaning you don't actually need spells or a high Speechcraft / Personality to get the most out of them, I've had times where he was at max disposition, despite having not met him before on the character).

I remember earning over a million gold in Oblivion back when it released in much the same way. Only I didnt use the potions. I just killed an unknowable number of bandits and sold their loot an equally unknowable number of times. It was a grind only a much younger me would have had the time and patience to undertake.

Quick tip, rather than enchanting feather on your armour, fortify strength instead. You get the same carry weight benefit plus your attacks also hit harder :)

Maglir: *glitches in a door while having a seizure* Rhano: I like what I see 😏 I mean, I have no sympathy for Maglir but... Rhano, you sick bastard

The nostalgia I have for this game is out of this world So happy to see an Oblivion video from you!

You're a hero for providing a link to the songs you used in the description. Especially 'Leona Eclipse Dance' that song deserves a full deep dive into why so many people find it so familiar

I just found your channel a couple of days ago and despite the fact that I'm not into speedruns, (other than the story behind some of them) or livestreams, you've become one of my fav RU-vidrs to binge on a lazy day, thanks for the great videos

Good people, we have a winner! All hail the combatant from the Blue Team! Victor from the Blue Team, leave the Arena now and rest. You’ve earned it!

Remember that guy in the imperial city that you could use the Lovers Kiss and paralyze him and just infinitely take his gold. You'd take a few thousand, put it all back, paralyze him again, take more and more rinse and repeat.

Just wanted to say your intro are excellent, amazing work Jabo!

This was the first video i got to watch some of the streams for, certainly won’t be the last. Great vid as always

I think you forgot that you needed higher level alchemy equipment to make more valuable potions. You can easily turn a 2G food item into a potion worth 150+

Awesome video, keep up the great work!

Nice video i really enjoy these! your elder scrolls content is amazing

6:49 That music coming on sent me back like 15 years in the past. Idk why that credits song has been stuck in my head after all these years, but it hit me like a ton of bricks.

i dont understand how ur at 232k, u were recommended on my home and your content is high quality n u play awesome games that i love to watch, just subbed, keep up the awesome work!!

Love when I check my subscriptions and see a new video! Great work! You make Bethesda games look easy 😅

Good video Jabo. Nice work

Always a damn good day when jabo uploads

nice vid, that 'star' ref you put in here takes gonads, I'll give you that. Me myself can't just hear the start and not vibe out on the entire track, so I had to go give it another listen. Good thing I opened another tab for it so I could still see what I was doing after closing it :p Again, nice video!

Restoration actually takes a really long time to level up compared to the other magic schools. Destruction is slow too, but Restoration is much slower than Alteration, Illusion, and Conjuration

Such a great video 😉 i love it like all other too.

YEEEEESSSS OBLIVIONNNN seriously so happy i found you love these chaotic videos

If you make a fortify mercantile spell. You can invest gold into stores to make money faster given you used level 20+ items.

It's silly, but yet again.. finding it pretty neat to see your own name scrolling by when you was NOT expecting it. Oblivion is a fun game and was loads of fun watching someone play it. Hard to believe its been over 16 years now.

The Mass Effect end music (An End, Once And For All) at 17:23 hits different everytime

Hell yes, been waiting for this 1

i loved at the start the " i like what isee" when it was glitching likehell, perfectly encapsules oblivion😂

This reminds me how much I loved this game

came a long way from those outer world speedruns, that's when I first saw your content. lol love the vids

Dude I was 10 years old when this game got released. Played it the first time at 13 years old, playing up to this day. A constant replaying for 13 years. Time has passed quickly.

Here’s an interesting challenge: can you become vilified by all factions in new Vegas… without killing anyone? A pacifist hated by all.

Rockmilk Cave is my go-to for loot, it has bandits and marauders fighting each other so you can get light and heavy armor, plus if you finish the Mazoga the Orc quest you get extra money for black bows the bandits drop

These are fun vids ! thank you

as someone who started in Skyrim and has barely played Oblivion I am amazed at the depth and features this game has compared to Skyrim.

great video Jabo

Nice use of the mass effect ending song at the end of the vid. A great song

Banger Vid as always

I love you Jabo. Great video too!

Very nice thanks for posting

I think I accidentally became a millionaire in this game with a friend from a glitch where someone who you can pickpocket or loot who had constantly regenerated gold.

Been waiting for this one..

New video and my day is already better

Holy cow that intro music with the bells is fire

i wish Jabo would make waaaay more challenges on Oblivion. this game has just become so overshadowed by Skyrim and Fallout 3 that people even forget it exists but it's so full of stuff and i'd love it so much to see Jabo explore it more

gotta love the Mass Effect Sad music playing in the background at the end.

The Mass Effect Song at the end hit right in da feels 😢

You conjuring whilst doing quests reminds me of runescape and using high alchemy everywhere!! hehe

Doing better over time!

I love that adoring fan in oblivion is every1s favorite jester in skyrim. Also oblivion game and dlc are awesome and horse armor was hilarious. Also cursed mine just west of skingrad is best bandit cave. 12 to 15 .

That leona song at the beginning is so relaxing

Let's go new jabo vid

I really appreciate you used Young Scroll's "Star" when Adoring Fan approached you. I would have done that exact same thing.

Commenting about the console commands, not because I think it would help you in a non "cheating" challenge, but rather to add a comment so that the RU-vid algo pick this video up! Good shit man, subscribed.

I know in Morrowind that alchemy was supposed to be one of the best ways to make profits but I think you were on to something with charm and fortify skill via leveling and questing.

That was the most climactic end to an oblivion challenge ive ever seen lmfao

The Shooting Star clip was the best

9:13 all the death and the adoring fan is just happy to be there lol. Oblivion just has that charm that Skyrim cant replicate.

Bro I remember the 30+k guy running and having no idea what was going on but jabo screeching his head off and I was laughing because of it

14:00 Several Merchants added in the official plug ins (Included if buying the game now) have a base gold amount of 2,000; so with high mercantile skill can get up to 3,000.

small tip to speed up the casting grind, add a touch spell of the same school to the self cast spell, the touch spells cast animation much faster than the self cast spell and it will still grant the xp of the self cast. also don't use the feather enchantment on armor, the fortify strength enchantment give the same benefits as well as melee bonuses.

That Young Souls beat drop was iconic!

13:14 - For armor I always like hitting up Fort Nikel because it spawns Bandits AND Marauders and they will fight each other

I love these series, can you do Fallout 3 next? UwU

This made me happy :)

"I like what I see." Wow. Just perfect line up of random dialog

Looking forward to the Fallout 3 version considering how limited the economy in that game is.

Mmm..when I heard Star start to play.. I dunno. Something just lit up inside of my heart.

Yes some Oblivion, Love It!

dying that he murdered the fan at the end

We stan we stan the adoring fan, for there is no one who loves you more than this man

you mentioned stumbling unto glitches and exploits and i remember doing the scroll duplication on accident

god i watched these on stream and it was supper fun.

Lovin these millionaire videos

Oh man I just finished replaying Mass Effect 3 yesterday and than I hear Leaving Earth while you kill your biggest fan. That hit.. strangely

Fort wooden hand for heavy and the abandoned mine for light armors, they are both simple and small and have a boss enemy of either type in both. I have spent more time in fort wooden hand in my years of playing oblivion than in some of the cities im sure

10/10 thumbnail 10/10 video

Oblivion is like Mr. Bone's wild ride, the overall 'goodness' really depends where you go. The bone zone w minotuars at lvl 3? Or a hidden stach of goodies at lvl 3?

Good tips

I think Jabo forgot that you can get the skeleton key super early which eliminates the need to ever buy lockpicks or learn how to play the minigame.

I've watched a ton of your videos and only now realized I haven't been subscribed, hope the comment like and share makes up for it. 😘

Bethesda games need to bring that wild camera wrap around back in future games.. Man I've had so many jump scares of random people.. It's the best when you're on a rampage and a guard comes out of nowhere and the screen just teleports to him 🤣🤣

The Mass Effect music at the end made me remember how quickly you could become a millionaire in ME1 because you can pick up SO much loot and the economy is so broken in that game

Don't you know this one simple trick? *points at Dorian's coinpurse*

The best merchant is Nilphas Omellian who is inside the merchants in the imperial city merchants quarter as long as you have fighters stronghold installed. He has the exact same merchantile skill as Varel Morvayn but he has 2000 base gold. Daedric and glass gear starts spawning at lv 20. Lv 23 is when you can make the highest tier amber and madness weapons. LV 25 is when all leveled rewards in the base game cap. Lv 30 is when a few dlc weapons like dawnfang cap. Daedirc armor is actually bad to sell because it actually has a bad weight to gold ratio. A deadric cuirass weights 60 and can be sold at max for 3k so it's gold to weight ratio is 50:1. A glass cuirass weights 15 and is worth1800 which is a gold to weight ratio of 120: 1. The glass shield wights 6 and is worth 1000 gold for an impressive 166.66:1 ratio.

Since you made the Majoras Mask reference it would have been way cooler if you'd written the remaining gold needed instead the current amount^^

you're awesome Jabo - watcher from canada

That intro song is nice

I've played this game for years and know how to make this process way faster. Using the merchant that the Battlehorn castle DLC gets you, invest in the shop. You get to sell things for 3k a pop, and go to the fort that comes with the Mehrunes Razor DLC. There, you find tons of guys with Daedric and Ebony gear, and they respawn really fast. That is the best way to make money.

Two words: Rockmilk Cave Two more words: Marauder Dungeons Two MORE words: Oblivion Gates Hit those over and over, especially after Ebony and Daedric gear starts spawning. You'll get to a million in no time.

Heard Star start playing had to stop and listen to the whole song before finishing the vid lol

**hellish being contorting into door** "I like what I see"

There is an imperial city sewer where once you enter, you take like one turn and theres two chests with expensive weapons inside. I remember this on ps3. I think they were heavy weapons though. No bandits.

1 million gold morrowind video must be on the way

0:30 classic oblivion, a bandit wearing mithril and glass armor with glass warhammer. I used to just farm them and sell their stuff lol
