Pick Your Race: Start Sneaky and Strong
Sneak to Level 100 Before the Game Even Starts
Right in the tutorial, you can hit Sneak 100 without leaving the cell! Enter sneak mode, push forward into the wall by the table (it looks like you’re just staring), and tape down the forward button. Come back in a few hours—bam, Sneak 100! This unlocks perks like 3x bow sneak damage (8x with daggers) and ignoring enemy armor at 100!
Birth Sign and Class: Boost Your Archer Prowess
Choose the Thief birth sign for +10 Agility, Speed, and Luck—early-game gold for damage and survival. Create a custom class called “Stealth Archer” with Agility and Luck as attributes. Major skills: Marksman, Sneak (already 100!), Light Armor, Athletics (to outrun foes), Alchemy (for OP poisons), and Acrobatics (optional for high jumps). Skip Security—use magic or the Skeleton Key instead!
Early Gear: Shrouded Armor and Bound Bow
Join the Dark Brotherhood at level 1 by killing an innocent at Walker Camp (northwest of Cheydinhal). Sleep at the camp, meet Lucien Lachance, and complete “A Knife in the Dark” at the Inn of Ill Omen. Head to the Cheydinhal Sanctuary for the Shrouded Armor (+10 to Sneak, Marksman, and more). For a bow, activate the Doomstone near Arcane University for a Bound Daedric Bow—repair it with a hammer, drop it, wait an hour, and keep it forever!
Exploit for Insane Damage: Weapon Swap Trick
Here’s a game-breaking exploit: sneak attack with your bow, then quick-swap to a dagger as the arrow flies. It counts as a dagger sneak attack (8x damage) but uses your bow’s stats! With Sneak 100 (ignoring armor), this one-shots most enemies. Add the Frost Wyrm bow from Dive Rock (north of Cheydinhal, 15 Frost damage) for even more pain!
Best Arrows and Invisibility: Thieves Den Power-Up
Fast travel to Anvil’s Dunbarrow Cove (southwest). Clear skeletons, then buy upgrades from Dahlia at the harbor ship. Get the Fletcher upgrade—Mhollie sells Arrows of Stumbling (paralyzes targets). At level 11+, shops stock Elven Arrows of the North Winds (60 Frost damage). For invisibility, duplicate Strong Potions of Invisibility from Jax Silver (Thieves Den) or stack 100% Chameleon with Sigil Stones (level 11+, 5x 20% Chameleon armor pieces)!
Level Up Fast: Marksman and Beyond
Swim to the Shrine of Peryite (south of Silverfish River) and shoot frozen worshippers to level Marksman fast—pin them against the statue! At Marksman 100, you’ll zoom in, save stamina, and get a 25% paralyze chance on hits. Boost Agility first for damage, then Speed (70+) to outrun enemies. On harder difficulties, level Strength for survivability!
