[QUOTE="Gannu, post: 1566649, member: 11738"] Yesterday was one heck of a day! [B]Smithing skills at [SIZE=3]101[/SIZE][/B] (that's right b1tches), unlocked the Dragon Armor, went to Skyforge straight away, used my special ring and bracers for smithing and fabricated the Dragonplate Heavy Armor set - Armor + Boots + Gauntlets + Helmet. Next stop at Shor's Stone and improved all the heavy armor to Legendary in one go. The total armor rating stands at [B]642[/B] now and my character is all SET to face some serious foes. :ohyeah: From 75 to 101, how some of you may ask? Took me < 2 hours with this simple trick. More like a loophole in the game. It's pretty simple. Here goes: [spoiler]Ensure that you have stockpiled on plenty of dragon bones and scales. This is very simple. Just head to those sites where the dragons are spawned, you could battle those dragons once more and salvage the bones and scales. If you cannot carry them, please have some location like a fort or house ready to store these items. In my case, I used [URL="http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Drelas'_Cottage"]Drelas Cottage[/URL] - it is pretty much straightforward in the map and the character can be quickly transported there from anywhere. Next, have at least 5000 coin with you. You are going to need this to trade. Head to Skyforge near Dragonsreach and buy all the iron ore, iron ingots, leather and leather strips from Eorlund Graymane. Use the Skyrforge to then make some iron daggers.

Head to Shor's Stone and use the workbench to improve everything! :D [/spoiler] Slayed an Elder Dragon yesterday and this was somewhat of a worthy battle! Spews fire but is a serious threat if the character doesn't have proper armor.
