As a blade-wielding gamer in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, I’ve noticed that my sword and dagger skills directly impact the amount of damage I dish out. With every level I pump into it, I inch closer to reaching its maximum potential at 100. This investment not only amplifies my combat power but also rewards me with additional passive perks along the way.
What Does Blade Do In Oblivion Remastered?
In simpler terms, the Blade Skill in Oblivion Remastered controls the amount of damage inflicted by Blade-type weapons. This includes weapons such as daggers, swords, and claymores. On the other hand, axes and hammers do not belong to this category.
To see if an item is categorized as a blade, ensure the details are visible in your inventory, then hover your cursor over it.
| Skill Level | Effects |
|---|---|
| Novice (0-24) | No particular perk |
| Apprentice (25-49) | Power Attacks deal more damage and Blade weapons are more durable |
| Journeyman (50-74) | Power Attacks apply Weakness to Normal Weapon to opponents |
| Expert (75-99) | Regular Attacks have a slight chance to make opponents bleed, dealing damage over time |
| Master (100) | The Weakness to Normal Weapon applied by Power Attacks is even stronger |
How To Increase The Blade Skill In Oblivion Remastered
As with all Skills in Oblivion Remastered, there are three ways to increase the Blade Skill:
- Manually doing the Skill, in this case, hitting opponents with Blade weapons.
- Paying for Skill trainers who teach Blade.
- Reading Blade Skill Books
Hitting training dummies and other objects does NOT level up the Blade Skill.
Fastest Ways To Level Up The Blade Skill
In order to build up experience with the Blade, players should aim to engage opponents using Blade weapons without focusing on causing damage or eliminating enemies swiftly. Instead, they should seek targets that offer extended combat durations and try to deal minimal harm, allowing for multiple attacks before the target is defeated. Here are some strategies for honing the Blade skill in The Elder Scrolls V: Oblivion Remastered:
1. Choose enemies with higher health pools: Targeting adversaries that have more hit points will allow you to engage in combat for a longer period, giving you ample opportunities to accumulate experience.
2. Engage in combat using light attacks: Light attacks deal less damage than heavy ones, allowing you to attack an opponent more frequently before they are defeated. This strategy will help you build up your Blade skill more efficiently.
3. Avoid using powerful abilities or spells: Abilities and spells that cause significant damage can quickly eliminate an enemy, preventing you from gaining experience. Instead, rely on your Blade weapons to deal damage.
4. Utilize blocking and dodging: These techniques will help you survive longer in combat, giving you more opportunities to attack and accumulate experience with the Blade.
5. Practice against trainers or specific enemies: Certain trainers or enemies in Oblivion Remastered are designed to offer extended combat durations, making them ideal targets for farming the Blade skill.
- Use weak, damaged daggers to deal less damage and get more attacks in before killing targets.
- Attack while low on Fatigue to deal less damage.
- Don’t level up your Strength or Agility Attributes, as these will increase damage with swords and daggers, respectively.
- Summon creatures for free combat training.
- Heal enemies after hitting them to keep them going as a training dummy.
- The Arena in the Imperial City is a great place for constant combat.
