Where umbra in oblivion Videos

Yeah

The traps never kill me...

You probably shouldn't play a game where you don't know how to pick up items.

I bought it preowned for 4 pound

+Mahogany Wolfy i have now.

+Capsule Fox You can buy the Game of the Year edition on Steam for $20 I think. I love that game.

and Barbas is ADORABLE in Skyrim. I mean, he's a talking dog, with a New York accent (somewhere up there ive never been out of this state :P)

+David Bonte Latin's dead. You might speak a derivative, but Latin has been dead for centuries.

+Tiger White I know, Latin, is my language, Captain Obviousю

+David Bonte Umbra is Latin for Shadow or Darkness.

+Denter86 Daggers are the best weapons if you have offensive enchantment on them (in Oblivion wepaon enchantments pretty much more than double the damage), since they are the fastest. On this video, though....no idea, the dagger is mundane.

+FrozenWolf150I did some testing to see how difficulty affects damage rounding and it seems that you're right, it doesn't. I made two axes:11 points of shock damage for 3 secondsand the other,12 points of shock damage for 3 secondsThe 11 point one killed a mountain lion in 28 hits, and the 12 point one in 26.

+FrozenWolf Thanks again for your help. I just did a little testing, and the results supported the idea that it does round down for spell effectiveness. With 95% spell effectiveness, a spell with 21 points Fire Damage on Self only did 19 points of damage, the same as a spell with 20 points of Fire Damage. Even after casting the 21 point spell 12 times, my character had only lost 228 Health points. (19 * 12) If the game was keeping track of the fractions, my character would have lost 239.4 points. (19.95 * 12) So, I decided it was best to always make Destruction spells do damage in multiples of 20 if I want to use armor.

+Derek Honky As far as I know, damage is not rounded down to the nearest integer. Rather, the game calculates the fractions. You can test this by creating a spell that does 3 pts damage. 3/6 = 1/2 = 0.5, which would round down to zero, but you will still be doing a little damage, so it's obviously not zero.Spell effectiveness only applies to spells you cast from your own hands, not to weapon enchantments.

Awesome. Thanks so much. I think the problem was I didn't realize that Weakness to Element effects aren't cumulative. I guess this character needs to start working on Destruction to be able to use Weakness to Magic.You mention dividing by 6 for max difficulty, which reminds me of a couple other things I haven't been able to figure out. I know the game rounds down to the nearest whole number when accounting for spell effectiveness on Destruction spells. Does it do the same thing for difficulty settings? For example would 12 points of damage actually be twice as strong as 11 points because 11 / 6 would round down to just 1?Last, does spell effectiveness affect weapon enchantments?Anyway, thanks again for the great explanations.

+Derek Honky A couple things to keep in mind about Weakness effects. First, they only apply to subsequent hits, so the effect has to last long enough to get the next hit in. Second, Weakness to Element effects are not cumulative with themselves, but Weakness to Magic does stack with both itself and Weakness to Element. So you can figure out the total damage by multiplying all the weakness effects together. For example, here's one of the weapons I'm using:Fire Damage 10 pts for 1 secFrost Damage 10 pts for 1 secShock Damage 10 pts for 1 secDamage Health 10 pts for 1 secWeakness to Fire 100% for 1 secWeakness to Frost 100% for 1 secWeakness to Shock 100% for 1 secWeakness to Magic 100% for 1 secSoul Trap for 1 secThe base type of weapon does not matter. You can use anything from iron to daedric, since it's the magic that does most of the damage. All weapons have an attack rate faster than 1 second, so the duration does not need to be long. The idea is to find a way to hit your enemy repeatedly without being blocked, since any delay will reset the damage stacking. The easiest ways to prevent an enemy from blocking are Drain Speed 100 pts on them, or 100 Chameleon on self.So discounting the weapon's base damage, it will do 40 the first hit, 160 the second, 240 the third, etc. Though you have to divide by 6 to account for max difficulty.

+FrozenWolf150Maybe you can help me. Does a weapon enchantment of "weakness to X element" + "X element damage" really work the way it says it does? The character I've been testing it on seems to be better off without a "weakness" enchantment on the weapon, instead just going for raw damage. Maybe it's because said character only has "weakness to fire" available and the mobs I've been using it on are 1/3 resistant to fire? Even so, it seems like a 100% weakness to fire for 3 seconds would be better than no "weakness" enchantment, especially if the timer resets every time I hit them.

Oh wow. Thanks, I didn't know!

+Derek Honky Actually, it still works on enemies like atronachs and undead due to the Weakness to Poison 100%. Also, the thing about damage stacking with Weakness to Magic is that each time it hits, it not only stacks with the previous, but also resets the timer. Therefore the duration doesn't need to be that long. That is, unless you're worried about enemies who absorb spells like Xivilai, or reflect spells like Liches, in which case a longer duration can help.The one enemy this will not work on is the Arena opponent, an Altmer in one of the later rounds, who carries The Gray Aegis, which is a shield with 100% Resist Magic.

+FrozenWolf150 Definitely. I like to have a longer duration weakness spell than that though, at least 7-10 seconds, so I can really stack the weaknesses up. Its totally overkill for most enemies though, but really handy for Xivilai who will likely absorb some of the weakness spells.It won't work against anything though. Some of the toughest enemies, like gloom wraiths, are immune to poison.

Of course, if you're willing to wait until later in the game as the player in the video did, the easiest way to kill her (or any tough enemy in the game) is to blast her repeatedly with a custom spell of Weakness to Poison 100% for 3 sec + Weakness to Magic 100% for 3 sec. You can include Invisibility on self for 2 sec if you're afraid of getting hit. Weakness to Magic stacks with itself, so hitting her X times with the spell will make your next poison attack do 2 + 2X times the damage. Then just cut her with any poison and watch her keel over in seconds.

+Derek Honky Umbra has 394 HP and regenerates 2 HP per sec, though poison strength is not affected by difficulty. At Alchemy 25, Damage Health poisons start out at 2 pts for 9 sec. Of course, making all these poisons will raise your Alchemy skill, so at skill level 35 you'll end up with 3 pts for 11 sec. The mean is 2 pts for 10 sec at Alchemy 30, and arrows can be fired about 1 every 2 sec, so every 5th poison arrow will effectively negate her regeneration. This means you'd need approximately 25 Damage Health poisons, which is about how many I used. So yeah, don't hold back.

+FrozenWolf150 This has to be the easiest way to do this. Actually, I tried to poison Umbra at lvl 1 and it didn't work, but I'm pretty sure it was just because I didn't have enough poisons. Do you remember how many you needed? I'd guess at least 30 or 40? I seem to remember going through at least a dozen and it didn't make much of a dent.

Lure her to the imperial city, she will kill like 4 Guards but you get legion armor and umbra sword/ebony armor

Work this today too? Or did they patch this? I would try this soon. :D

@live4hymn1 The title that you feel I'm sooo stuck on, is ONE way of killing her. Unfortunately, many feel the need to input their alternative methods to kill her. It is for those individuals that the comments pertaining to the title apply. It's just entertaining to watch the guards gang up on her. I would recommend just making a save point before trying this, then you can kill her the way you feel is the "proper way". In other words, IT'S JUST FOR FUN!

I love it. This is fantastic. I gave this strategy a shot myself. At first it was just to avoid getting a murder on record, but then it turned into seeing her get into fights with people in different area; I took her to the Mages Guild entrance once, the Palace district, Elven Gardens, Talos Plaza, and so on. I thought about dragging her to Skingrad, but I'm only level 2, so my health is rather low for that sort of marathon.

I tried this with her outside by the stables, she ran into the city chasing a guard that attacked her. I followed them both into the city, when It loaded me into the city the guard was there, but Umbra was gone, and the battle music stopped. I went back to the dungeon to find her and she wasn't there. I ended up waiting several in game days to see if she had returned, and still no luck. Did it glitch on me?

The only thing that sucks about this method is you can't get involved in the action yourself once you bring her into the city, lest the guards start attacking you too. I found this out the hard way when I attacked her once on the Waterfront to maintain her interest in chasing me, and the next thing I knew it I was fighting Heironymous Lex too.

When i killed her all i did was walk around in circles in the poison room and dodge her attacks by jumping....immune to poison because i chose an argonian. It took like 10 minutes though and i almost died like 3 times. I was on medium difficulty and i was only level 3. i did it yesterday in other words xD

If you simply attack her without the quest being active then the guards will attack you, but if you start the quest you can CHOOSE to fight her by talking to her (which was showed in the vid) without hitting her. The guards will leave you alone because of that..

i tried this, but when i run back to the city the guard say i commited a crime and theres a bounty on me of 40 gold? ;[ ;[ ;[ something that got fixed with game update? (im playing the xbox version)

I killed her pretty easy at level 1. Just use the Imperial City-Talos Plaza infinite money glitch, buy the best weapons and armor from the Imperial City Market, then go slay her ass.

WARNING! this will not work at low levels. you need very good acrobatics and athletics because umbra runs superfast. she smokes me easily and i wear light armor and an a wood elf.

easier way: jump onto the broken pillar near where you find umbra(you may need to jump on the basket first) just sit up there and kill her from range (she wont be able to hit you)

Female citizen: "Sure lets pretend theres not a nude dead body of a women behind us." Male citizen: "Leave it alone Quagmire will take care of it." Quagmire: "GiGGity!"

HAHAHAH. Im surprised the guards didn't sccidently swing at each other. When doing the Glarthir quest I let the guards kill him, they started attacking eachother.

Man...0_o I somehow managed to get Umbra at lvl 1, but when I first started a fight with her, I nearly got my butt handed to me, and when I swam across to the

uh its easier to go behind the stone table in her room just where she can't reach you and shoot her with magic and if you aren't a mage use a bow.

I killed the grand champion in the arena in 3 hits with umbra's sword if u want to see it search up killing the grand champion in 3 hits!

swarm of guards at the end...funniest thing thanks for the video...good to know that im not the only "attack and run" player out there.

+Arpine Babloyan It's a spell effect called life detection. You can buy a novice spell that gives you the thing for 60 seconds at Mystic Emporium, and it has low mana cost, so it's good to have it even if you're not a mage.
