The most recent patch effectively removed it. So no, not any more.

YES
All right, now I can play a mage without worrying about my damage eventually leveling off because spell damage doesn't increase with level.

I think you have the opposite thing in your head than what is actually there...

I probably do, considering I haven't played in months. What's the reality?

In the vanilla game, spell damage doesn't scale with skill. You will always fall behind on spell damage unless you use a mod which fixes that.

Well, whenever I play again I'll be sure to download mods.

It does increase with perks, though, and I think you're supposed to switch to the more advanced spells as you go. Fireball and blizzard are particularly potent throughout the entire game. Seriously, blizzard is so OP, it goes through solid objects and doesn't stop until it hits the end of its range. Try throwing off 2 in quick succession (not dual casting), nothing can dodge it if you space them right.

I really need to stop visiting Riften at night. I'd just gotten off the cart at around 2 am when Serana was hit in the face by a ball of poisonous phlegm. A single bolt took out the giant spider that had come up from the forest to say hello and we headed back up towards the gates only for a dark brotherhood assassin to come running in from the east. He was quickly taken out with some help from the nearby guards and after quickly looting his valuables we proceeded into the city.

We started walking up towards the inn, when from behind us came "Ha! I found you!", a group of vampires had come in through the gate. Serana promptly got into a "ha! I steal your lifeforce." "No, I steal your lifeforce" duel with the ancient vampire while the guards jumped on the blooded vampire. This left the fledgling coming at me who went down with a bolt to the face and I started moving around close to the gate to get a shot on the vampire the pair of guards were fighting. As I was taking aim, suddenly I was staggered and lost a big chunk of health as someone yelled out "You never should have come here!". Behind me from nowhere a bandit plunderer had appeared and was hacking away at me with his greatsword. Cutting a hole in time to swig some healing potions and a couple of bolts took down the bandit, so I turned to assist against the remaining vampires.

The pair of guards had managed to take down the vampire they had been attacking and were moving in to help Serana deal with the ancient vampire she had been playing life swap with. I took a shot to stagger the vampire when I heard the faint sound of fire magic roaring. I turned and looked down the street to try and find who was casting magic, when I saw perched atop Black-Briar manor a legendary dragon happily toasting the rest of the city guards. Quickly finishing off the vampire we then had to go on your typical, run around the city getting shots off at the dragon when buildings don't get in the way hunt. Eventually it was forced to ground badly injured next the the shrine of Talos where Nura Snow-Shod had been ignoring all the commotion and had remained there praying. I thought we were about to loose a named npc when the dragon snapped at her, but she got up went "lol, no" and electrocuted the dragon to death.

All I wanted was to get a bed for the night so I could sell my loot in the morning. Definitely not visiting at night again.

Right. Well, fuck mods. I can't get skyre to work, no matter what I do. I've followed each of the installation guides for each mod to the letter, and the damned thing won't work. All I have is either vanilla skyrim, or a buggy install of skyre. This pisses me off so much, because I actually got this on the computer for the explicit reason of using fucking mods. And I can't fucking use them!

do you have all of the dlc?

[Teneb]

Dawnguard is the only DLC needed for skyre.

Do you have it?

[Tellemurius]

are you installing it via Steamworks or Nexus Manager?

[Imofexios]

It is tricky to install the Skyre and Dawnguard aint necessary to use it.
Just use the older install before DG.

[Imofexios]

Well. i got it working yesterday fine. Vanilla that is.

[umiman]

This is what you need to do:

1. Download Nexus Mod Manager.
2. Download community uncapper.
3. Install uncapper with Nexus Mod Manager.
4. Go to Skyre page on Nexus.
5. Install with Nexus Mod Manager.
6. Enable it in Nexus Mod Manager if it isn't already.
7. Play Skyrim with script extender on NMM activated.

If you really have a completely plain vanilla version of Skyrim with a completely new character that should be all that you need to do. I think manually installing it would be what's giving you so much grief. The mod manager works fantastic... The only thing that doesn't really work with it is some of the more complicated body meshes where you need to manually overwrite existing meshes / textures.

If the above steps don't work for you, you likely have a PEBKAC issue.

[Teneb]

OK, the game is purposely trolling the fuck out of me. I've tried something else to see if I can get skyre to work, but it seems I accidentally brought up console commands.

And it refuses to exit. No matter what.

Fuck skyrim, fuck mods, fuck this waste of money buying skyrim for the PC has turned out to be. The mods refuse to work, and all it's done thus far is utterly piss me off!

This is a probably stupid question, but... did you enable the mod flies in the data menu of the launcher?

[Imofexios]

Oh and there is great tutorial how to install all necessary crap youtube wise.
