Well... all of "hidden effects" looks like that meme: "Is that bug or feature? Bethesda: Yes"

Knew about all of these except the last one. Colette was right, holy shit. Restoration IS a perfectly valid school of magic.

You know I always tell myself “okay this time I’m going to be a Nord warrior no more sneaking around” and then five seconds after that I say this “okay maybe I can put one skill point into stealth” and it just gets worse from there

Fus Ro Da! (whisper)

Aspect of terror (illusion perk) also increases all fire damage by 10, meaning that the spell "flames" that normally does 8 dmg, now does 18.

>They're not in any order >very interesting especially the final one

0:34 Quiet casting perk 1:38 Stability perk 2:05 Decapitation perk (savage strike, devastating blow) 2:50 Augmented+Impact perk 3:35 Necromage perk - Effects work on yourself if you're a vampire 4:29 Augmented destruction perks 5:28 Augmented perks - also affect shouts 5:40 Merchant perk - Buy any item from shopkeeper inventory 6:04 Atronach perk - Also recharges your own magicka with the circle of protection spell

drinking game: take a shot whenever a fudge muppet video contains the word "heaps"

I was disappointed that he didn't mention the HUGE alchemy benefit to the merchant perk. There are some very rare alchemy ingredients you cannot ever buy from an alchemy vendor unless you have the merchant perk.

Skyrim is such an amazing game, 800 hours in and yet there's still shit I had no idea of. Thanks for the vid man!

Plays Skyrim, has Oblivion soundtrack in background. Awesome!

damn that Oblivion music was nostalgic.

aaah... the good ol oblivion soundtrack

I have 2500+ hours in skyrim but even i didnt know the Cricle of protection one. Now i need to make a stand-ins still mage build to try it out. Thnx guys!

5:07 they also all apply to the chaos damage enchantment; I once used that trick (full perks in improved fire, frost, and shock, plus fire, frost, and shock enchanter) at level 100 enchanting with dual enchantments and absorb health (puts on the Longhammer for maximum DPS); the result was a weapon that did something in the 500 damage range per non-power hit and healed 95, with 0.8 swing per second swing speed of the Longhammer.

Nobody: Absolutely nobody: Dragonborn: *slices bandits head off with hammer*

when I started this I was thinking "oh please... Ive played thousands of hours.. I may not know everything about skyrim but I don't think you will tell me anything new" I stand corrected. this is some pretty awesome information.

That last one about the circle of protection is super cool and i really wish i'd known about it when i made my paladin, It's super thematic for any mage build really. Everyone rips on skyrim for its lack of complexity but these little interactions really make it up and make the game special. Excellent vid

Watching your videos before playing always makes it a better time. Thanks and best wishes.

The Aspect of Terror perk actually increases Fire Damage by 10-15 points depending on whether or not you took both ranks of Augmented Flames first. Since it's a flat bonus, it really shines on lower level spells like Flames which can reach up to 27 damage per second without dual-casting.

So Augmented Perks are the best ingame Thanks

This is cool, I've played over 600 hours on PC but I never knew any of this

"They're not in any order (...) especially the final one"

Man, there are so many things I never knew about Skyrim despite having over 200 hours in it. It's great to see that there are still videos dedicated to finding out hidden things in Skyrim (even if I don't play it anymore) Keep up the good work, you've earned yourself a sub!

Ive been playing Skyrim for YEARS. I never completed any main story lines because I dont want it to end! But even after all this time, and all these characters I made, only now am I really understanding the potential power you can obtain. I love skyrim

I'm sleeping with my accountant

I remember in my first play-through I took the necromage perk as a vampire and had no idea why I suddenly became so much stronger.

Atronach is pretty broken for conjurers. Sometimes it takes 3-4 casts before you can summon something.

Using slow time makes me feel like Quicksilver. It feels amazing.

An added bonus to Atronach is that the fire from fire traps, hanging pots, and oil stains will also refill your magic... if it doesn't burn you.

This augmented flame fact will be great with the dawn breaker ! I'm making a dawn guard build with the rune shield and the dawnbreaker !

I love how he's playing king and country from oblivion in the background.

Fun fact; the elemental enchantments (and I think literally all weapon enchantments) you put on weapons are also affected by the enchantment Fortify Destruction which decreases destruction magic usage. Should you use alchemy to get Fortify Destruction 100%, your offensive enchants won't drain (that includes staves).

it's 2:00 am... GO THE FUCK BACK TO SLEEP!!!

Wow, thank you for this! Playing as a mage now makes a lot more sense than it did before, and knowing all this, it's a whole different experience. Great video!

Kudos for using the Oblivion soundtrack throughout! I miss that game.

How did they forget Aspect of Terror? Fuckin beast perk man. yeah yeah you get that sweet increase in level for your fear spell but more importantly IT WILL DIRECTLY BOOST YOUR FIRE DAMAGE. not impressed? well if you take aspect of terror after augmented fire 2 IT WILL ADD 15 DAMAGE ON TOP OF ALL YOUR FIRE DAMAGE. AND THIS WORKS AFTER AUGMENTED FIRE! This means that a firebolt will deal not 25, not 37 but 52 damages! This amazing in the fact that firebolt which is an apprentice level spell can outperform a basic fireball. BUT HO BOI LET ME GET TO THE POINT. IGNITE FROM DB DLC IS ALSO AFFECTED. ASPECT OF TERROR AND AUGMENTED FIRE 2 WILL TRANSFORM THIS SHITTY APPRENTICE LEVEL SPELL INTO A POWERHOUSE, DOING AN INCREDIBLE 21 POINTS OF DAMAGE EVERY FUCKING SECOND DURING 15 SECONDS! AND. IT. STACKS. AND ALL OF THIS COMES BEFORE AZHIDAL (the mask) AND POTIONS (fortify destruction) THIS IS LEGIT GAME BREAKING.

One other thing you need to know about the Necromage perk is that this little hidden perk was fixed in the Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch mod. If you are using USSEP you will have to circumvent this fix with another mod that restores the Necromage perk back to vanilla.

I sincerely enjoy your videos, FudgeMuppet. I was looking for builds to play, and found your channel; and I'm so glad I did. Keep up the great work man, subbed.

These are some awesome hidden perks. Thanks! I can improve my play style now since I'm a stealth/conjuration build and I found out I can quiet cast shouts 😂

I love seeing the channel now, i was there when it was only skyrim builds, and then came the awesome lets plays... aahh, its like watching a child grow, ya know? Keep going bros, you are awesome :D

Thanks for making these videos, even though I know a shit ton about Skyrim they're still so entertaining. You guys are amazing, Scott, Michael

I appreciate how you go through the list very succinctly instead of drawing out the video length for no reason. *cough* watch mojo *cough*.

Wow, I have been playing Skyrim off and on for years now and I did not know about the Circle of Restoration, the muffled shouts or the crazily boosted slow time stuff. Great video!

I hate it when spell absorb stops you from summoning atronachs though

The first vid I ever saw by you two was the Raider/Melee Build I saw it thinking it was a good guide on how to run a melee character then I loved what I saw and watched everything and subbed so what I'm trying to say is I love your guys work it really good this came to mind when I went back and watched that vid

The last one also works with guardian circle, allowing you to heal while spitting out spells, making you a god-like mage

EPIC video. Love the editing, music, concept, all of it

Heh. I always thought impact staggered dragons even without the augmented perks, because I usually go for that damage boost first. Whattaya know, you learn something every day :P

I can't be the only person who wants an Elder Scrolls Real Time Strategy game. fact?

I am super Skyrim vet and I can't believe I actually learned something new about Skyrim. Thanks for that FudgeMuppet!

400 hours into Skyrim, still learning hidden stuff about spells. I only knew about 5/9, nice job!

And drawing a bow lets you move faster when overweight, and there are perks that make you move even faster in the archery tree

Excellent video. Love the ones like this.

I knew all of these, but that was from a huge amount of time studying how the game itself worked, kudos to you guys for figuring this stuff out too. Skyrim just has so much in it that people are still figuring out, and vampires are still stupid strong.

Man fudge I played skyrim front to back I thought I new every little secret to the game but I learn at least 2-3 new things with every video you upload

Pls Bethesda, don't patch any of this

I absolutely love the work you do on this chanel I have changed from noob to someone who actually knows what to do in the game so I would like to say thank you

I was skeptical on this thinking I would see something I already knew, but the augmented elements on weapons was really great to know, thank you

your channel is lit af. did your paladin guide from way back

Scott, Michael just wanna say that I love your vids and also would like to recommend a character aesthetic, Full Noridic carved armor except the helmet and for the helmet the helm of Yngol it looks sick in my opinion

Great video man.

This is so cool! Such an amazing game. Thank you for making this video and the work you put into it!

Didn't know about at least half of these. Very cool!

Interesting tips!

UPDATE ABOUT NECROMAGE FOR NEWBIES: YOU MUST BE A VAMPIRE BEFOR YOU GET NECROMAGE OR IT WILL NOT WORK

Was hoping there was at least one I didn't know about or wasn't plain self explanatory. Number 1 did not disappoint. Did not know about the circle absorbing. Good job.

This was really helpful and interesting. Most thumbnails that say "X things you didn't know about X" are usually dumb, but your discovery here was really good. Thanks for the info!

1:22 From hearing your 'thumb'.... THU'UM

I love your videos man, I found you from Camel. You guys are awesome.

Awesome video man, I didn't know some of these things so this will help me out a lot.

It's HIGGGGGGGHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOON

Unfortunately having high magic absorption means you can't cast conjugation spells. All your summons are just absorbed by the player character

Totally unrelated but a lot of people don't know about the npcs relaxing in the hot springs. I never leave them alive lol

Great vid. Doing a playthrough right now and this has changed what perks I am going to get because I didnt think they would be very useful. Seems the hidden parts actually are more useful to me then the normal perk description.

Great vid - some really good tips for builds here - nice one!

Do you think he knows the alteration spell is altering things lol. Aaalteration.

Circle of Protection + Lightning Storm

Been playing Skyrim for years and haven't heard of some of the things on this list. Nice job.

Dude thats awesome! Five years later and im still learning!

EDIT: Alright after some deep thoughts and reading I will apologize for being rude, I am feeling shitty in general. Have a nice day/night.

The first one is so hillarious and dumb, a shout is like a Roar, the dragonborn roars stubitly loud and makes some sort of power, like fire or whatever, to silence that wouldent really make much sense :b

We don't have to put our nerd glasses on, we just never take them off.

my favorite build you guys have ever made was the slow time shout/archer stealth build. that was so fun.

im an atronach.....i can absorb your spells ;-)

The decapitation perks don't seem to be that useful against necromancy. The decapitation moves, like finishing moves in general, seem to occur at the end of the fight, against the last enemy in combat with you. Because of this it would only be useful in the way mentioned in the video if you were to fight a single opponent and then start another fight against a necromancer in the same room. If the necromancer was participating in the fight, you wouldn't get the decapitation off and he'd be able to raise the dead enemy, and if there were multiple enemies he'd be able to raise the other people since only the last one got decapitated. The augmented shock perk however does work like this since it disintegrates enemies with at least moderate consistency and doesn't only trigger as a finishing move

I really like your voice and your videos really help me when i start a new character

The tip about necromage perk is AWESOME!!!!! thank you!

Does Augmented flames perk work for Dawnbreaker?

they are not in any order.... especially the final one. hahaha

this video gave me alot of useful information, i didn't know anything about the mage perks even though my first build long time ago was a broken mage lol thanks alot i look forward to seeing more videos for skyrim :D.

"Increases elemental shout powers?" * equips frost breath and ice storm. You've got the touch starts playing *

"but you still have to be good at stealth tho" wtf? am i so good i automatically press stealth a certaint way right in front of someones face and i vanish... i thought stealth was broken for everyone tho

i know like almost everything about skyrim

Really good video dude, Makes me want to play Skyrim again

Very useful info. I didn't expect all that

"they're not in order and very interesting, especially the final one" so, where's the final one then? D:

I wonder how many of these apply to Ordinator perks, if any at all.

This video is so awesome. Information overload. about to start a new build just to take advantage of these effects

Even though I use mods (been using SkyRe and Perkus for ages now), this is still a very cool video. Even though I knew some of this, I didn't know most of it. Cool vid, Michael!
