Like a Sir/Ma'am Moment

    What was a time in Skyrim when you did something so INCREDIBLE so GREAT that if you told someone they wouldn't believe you unless you had proof or any kind of accomplishment that made you feel like a boss or sir. Something that made you said Skyrim is my province there aint a living thing in all of Skyrim that can take me down. Did you kill something oh so great or did you get 100% achievements/trophies in the game.

    Well for me it was getting the Platinum trophy. Nothing else came even close to the amount of stress I had to go through to get this award. After needing to create a second character for my mage I never realized the amount of stress I would have to go through to get the oblivion walker trophy/achievement. It was a pain in the a**e. After I had got 14 artifacts the last one I needed i had to be lvl 30. The problem was that I was only lvl 23 at the time and it took a LONG time sneak attacking those Greybeards so my sneak skill would rise and I would finally reach level 30. Very annoying especially since I had done most of them on my first character not knowing there was an /achievement/trophy for them.

    Anyways that was my like a sir moment what was yours?

    & yes I made that ^^

    Congratulations! My achievements are rather regular, surviving a difficult dungeon or finding hiding treasure always feels great though.

    I've played more than 300 hours on PS3 and never got a trophy, except those silly ones awarded for completing a questline or a mainquest phase. I don't think I am seen as a great hero in Skyrim - guards still keep snorting at me and calling me thief.

    I survived shearpoint with a blood dragon, an ancient dragon, and the dragon priest then accidently ran into the giant camp at the base of the mountian and lived.

    On leveling up - go to a trainer, get trained, save, pickpocket the trainer, level up. Repeat process.

     Lol I wonder how they know that if you haven't been caught in that hold. Pretty sure it involves being in the thieves guild.

    I've never been caught with my Argonian nightinggale and im called a "sneak-thief" by almost every guard. I think is has something to do with sneak lvl.

    Yeah the moment I crouch in any town every all the Guards come running up to me and say "Keep your hands away sneak thief" or something similar to that.

    I have one character that never steals unless they call him a 'sneak thief' -  I then take all of his arrows.

    It's based on sneak - I have many characters that don't steal, but sneak through dungeons; so they call me a 'sneak thief' - makes me mad.

    Finished a dragon off with a dead horse. Dragon was nearly dead, I was out of magicka. My dead horse lay in between me and the dragon. Thought "eh, might as well try"

    FUS RO DAH

    Horse's corpse pings the dragon for the very last bit of health. All were amazed, with several guards saying "I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes" =P

    That has to be the ultimate shame for a dragon "death by horse".
