    Hey there. Flutters here and I just wanted to post this interesting exploit/glitch that I found in Skyrim. 

    Note: This requires at least one Dragon Soul to work

    Basically during the quest The Throat of the World when the player goes to Paarthurnax he will teach you a word of Fire Breath and then teach you it, meaning you don't have to use a Dragon Soul to unlock it. This is where the glitch/exploit happens:

    1. Learn the word from the wall
    2. Before Paarthurnax can unlock the word open the menu and go to the "Shouts" section
    3. Unlock the Word of Power for Fire Breath.
    4. Exit the menu
    5. Paarthurnax should now teach you the next word of Fire Breath

    I'm not sure how well known this glitch/exploit is, but I wanted to share it just in case people can't be bothered to go unlock words in their individual places.

    I'm not sure, but this might also work with Unrelenting Force and Whirlwind Sprint when you learn them from the Greybeards.

    I've def used this...one thing to note is that in order to get all three words, it seems you need to have one of the other words already learned and unlocked. So when you get to Parthy, and use the exploit as you described you'll have all three.

    If you wait and try to get the third one from one other wall after getting two from Parthy, it won't show up until you go to BOTH of the other walls. (dustman's cairn + sunderstone). I've checked this twice on accident, and it happened both times. But if you go get say, the Sunderstone one first and unlock it, then go to parthy and get two more, you'll have all three.

    I understand what you're saying. However, I actually had no words of Fire Breath when I used this, although having one already would certainly be helpful.

    Hooray for Laziness!

    I use this to avoid the Companions their questline is so boring after the first two times...

    This does also work with Whirlwind Sprint.
