Most of the perks on the Smithing skill tree seem to unlock new material/construction types that can be crafted. The description is always along the lines of: Can create <material> armor and weapons at forges, and improve them twice as much. As far as I can tell I can still only perfo...

After finishing That Special Someone by killing Darko, I didn't receive a call by Pegorino, as the wiki says I should. But this means that I can't continue to the following story missions. I did a few optional missions after that, so I don't think waiting will help. Am I missing something or is...

I have found a door in Shroud Heath Barrow which looks almost exactly the same as the one in Black Falls Sanctum. That door was opened with Lucan's golden claw, but the symbols on this door aren't quite the same (wolf instead of bear), so I don't imagine I'm supposed to steal his claw back. Whe...

So I'm at the point where I've retrieved my gear and had the door locked behind me. My next task is to Search for Information about the Dragons Returning. In the next room are two guards, which are easy enough to slip past, but then there's a wizard on the second floor who isn't as easy. What ...

Alright, so i'm doing the Dark Brotherhood questline. And now i need to choose either to kill Cicero the jester or let him live. I've been looking up abit. And i've read that if you kill him you get 500 gold but if you let him live he can be a companion later on. Now my question: Is this confir...

I'm at what I assume is the end of the 3rd Catwoman mission. I've beaten down the guards, I have two suitcases full of loot, and I'm apparently having a moral dilemma regarding whether I should leave Batman buried under a pile of rubble or flee Arkham City with my ill-gotten gains. Though she a...

In BF3 I can choose which monitor to use for fullscreen gaming. Since my secondary monitor is my plasma TV, this is a great feature. MW3 instead offers video modes for the primary screen only, so that I have to switch the screen in windows (set the plasma primary) before I start the game. Does ...

In morrowind you could find grandmaster trainers who could train your skills. My question is who is the most powerful smith in skyrim? im trying to build a master craftsman but i need the training to get to that goal.

As I slowly explore the enormous world of Skyrim, I see all sorts of different symbols appear on my compass. I know they indicate that I should go in that direction to find something, and that the symbol tells what type of thing it is. Some are relatively easy to decipher, but many are not. So...

I have the quest to bring supplies to Hrothgar, but when I got there I had no idea where to drop them off. Any idea what to do to complete the quest?

Possible Duplicate: What combination do you set on the door to open it in “The Claw”? In the golden claw quest there are 3 rotating pillars. I think I have to set them to something for the lever to open the portcullis but I don't know what the combination should be. Is th...

There are certain times (like when levelling up and choosing which to invest in) I'd like to see what my Magicka/Health/Stamina are, unbuffed by any gear I might be wearing. Short of removing all gear before doing this, is there an easier way?

I get a BSOD almost whenever I've gamed for a little while and try to save the game or do something else that explicitly writes to disk. I don't know if it's actually the disk writing part or anything else that causes the problem but I've run many different error checking tools and haven't found ...

For all the magic schools, the skill description only mentions that the skill makes it easier to cast those spells. You also need a certain amount of skill to get the perks associated with that skill. Aside from unlocking perks, what effects does increasing your skill in Destruction, Alteration,...

Where are the locations of all the master level skill trainers that can train each skill up to the maximum of 100?

I recently killed a dragon (near the loving stone) and I didn't absorb the soul. I have two theories on why this is: 1) I didn't deal the killing blow, so it's not mine to absorb or 2) there were other hostiles around so the absorb action didn't take place. Any findings or other theories?

There is some type of black daedric looking gauntlet (withan oblivion sign in the palm)at the bottom of the college. Can anyone tell me what this is for, also a little help if you know anything I can do to get this started?

OK, I'm lucky enough to have the game run smoothly enough for my tastes on the Ultra settings - so with all the game-provided settings set to maximum. Most of the time it looks brilliant. However, once you find a large open space, and then can see the distance rendering cut-offs, such as these d...

I was wondering how I would divorce my spouse before I get married. and could I get married again afterwards?

I'm about to start the Thieves Guild quests, but as I'm playing a non-stealth character my Sneak skill is very, very poor at around 17. In preparation to joining the Thieves Guild I wanted to improve my Sneak skill, as I doubt I'll be able to do their quests at my current skill. I tried to sneak...

I'm beta testing The Old Republic and all the servers are full. I clicked to connect to the first and it told me I was 319th in line, so I hit Cancel, intending to see if another server had a smaller wait. It kicked me out of the menu entirely and now it's just sitting at some kind of loading s...

Fable 3 was honestly a let down-the graphics weren't as good and the game play was seriously boring and repetitive. Even the fighting itself was just me pressing the same button over and over again to cast a spell. Does skyrim have a more in depth fighting experience than fable 3?

I've successfully completed the Dark Brotherhood Questline in Skyrim and purchased the Poisoner's Nook Alchemy Table + Garden for the Sanctuary. However, it appears that the plants in that one don't grow back, which is a pity. Is there any confirmed timespan in which the plants should grow back? ...

In Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7, you start the game with Wingardium Leviosa as your only available spell. How do I unlock the spells I learned in years 1-4?

For awhile when SC2 came out I was pretty heavy into it. I was playing multiplayer and got up to diamond in 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3. I want to start playing multiplayer again, but I feel like I'm going to get my butt kicked. What is the most efficient way to regain my competitiveness in SC2 multipla...

I spent my weekend playing through Final Fantasy 13 and managed to get up to pulse late afternoon Sunday. I haven't been avoiding any encounters the entire way through, I've used good strategies to get good weapon upgrades (pouring 36 Sturdy Bones and then anywhere between 20 and 50 Turbojets on...

After the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom, which restored my years 1-4 spells, the ghost coins led me to a blue arrow pointing in front of a blank wall, with a lion's head above it. I am guessing I need to open it, but pulling the torches doesn't do the trick? How do I get the wall to o...

I get in the bathroom through the window, but when the Iranian came in it said press O, then he says NOW and it says press R1 but I just can't pass this part. I've tried hitting both constantly, then O first then R1 then I try leaving both pressed. I don't know what else to do; I've try many thin...

Does anyone know how to fix an issue where changing zones (immediately after loading screen appears) FPS drops to single digits. Restarting the game is a workaround but I'm looking for a long-term fix.

I'm at a Stonehenge like formation and I need to solve a puzzle similar to one we encountered earlier. How can I find the right combination?

I've just purchased my first house in Skyrim, the one for 5000 gold in Whiterun. I see that I can add an alchemy lab, but that appears to be it. I'd like to add an enchanting table - is this possible? If not, will it be later on, perhaps in a different house?

How can I check my ping in Battlefield 3 when playing online?

In Battlelog, the list of dog tags is split up into "Basic Dog Tags" and "Advanced Dog Tags". So far (Rank 13) all dog tags I have unlocked were "Basic Dog Tags". I started out with the BF:BC2, the N7 and the Mass Effect 3 advanced dog tags, like everyone, I guess. So: What are Advanced Dog Ta...

Obviously this changes based on your proficiency in a game type along with a myriad of other variables... But, generally speaking, which game type in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 gains you the most XP (on average)?

In Oblivion, I had two favorite money-makers: Dump all my stuff except some basic armor and potions, and raid an oblivion tower. The armor and weapons was worth lots, and selling it in Anvil made a lot of cash fast. Harvest an entire farm's worth of crops, create 'restore fatigue' potions and s...

Today (November 13th, 2011), while playing MW3 on Xbox I noticed I was getting Double XP for most of the day. I know that you can enable it a few different ways, but I didn't do anything special this weekend. This was player XP, so like kill confirmed was giving me 100 score for each tag. While ...

I changed my build from a Paladin using Zeal and Fanaticism (Zealot) to one using Blessed Hammer and Concentration (Hammerdin). I am presently at Act 5 Quest 3 in Nightmare but I find myself dying frequently while navigating the Crystaline Passage/Frozen River. Certainly the narrow halls are a...
