To get a free horse - without stealing! - you need to take a trip to the northern coast - North of Windhelm and West of Winterhold, along the coast South of Bleakcoast Cave. Pick skills that best augment your playstyle: For example, someone wanting to be a thief should look to Stealth, Pickpocket, Lockpicking, and a weapon skill like Archery or One-Handed.īe sure to take advantage of IGN's Skill Builder to experiment with different builds to map out your chosen character as they level up! Generally, it's good to pick a handful of Skills you want to build on, rather than spreading your skill points between every skill tree - or only focusing on one.

Will you be a Warrior, Mage, or Thief? Or maybe something in between? Will you focus on secondary crafting skills, or go all in on combat?

It's important to have a good understanding of the type of person you want your character to be when setting out on your adventure. There's nothing worse than leveling up and not knowing where you want to put your next skill point. See Also: Things Skyrim Doesn't Tell You,.Have any expert tips for new players?
