The Advanced Stones

  • May 27, 2016

    Hello all, have you ever had a problem in game with a concept, where everything could be fixed with just a tiny bit of extra umph from one of the stones, well I have a solution for you.  I was reading through some character build stuff, and once again I realized that no one has put up an Advanced Stone article up here except for the Atronach Stone.  That being said, I would like to thank Albino for his wonderful work on the Atronach Stone, and instead of reposting his work I will simply be providing a link to it.  

    This tip or trick guide is a simple expansion of the Restoration Loop trick, but can be used for a large number of solutions to regular problems.  I will be including the basic # of potions I find more than sufficient to do complete these tasks.  I like to use a grand total of 8 salt piles, and 8 small antlers as this is sufficient to get more that a 400% improvement to the stones.

    Advanced Lord Stone
    Lord Stone + 8 Fortify Restoration Potions:

    Magic Resistance for Conjurers
    -Now most of us know that Conjuration builds experience a major problem when trying to provide a solution to casting enemies, that others can just use the Atronach stone, to give them magic absorption.  In the case of Conjurers they need to use a different solution in the Lord Stone.  

    Effect: This gives you a persistent 100% magic resistance and 200 extra armor.  

    Advanced Atronach Stone: Great Work Albino and everyone else...

    You get a like just for advertising my own work. 

    Seriously though, buffing the standing stones is always good stuff. Does this really work for the Lord and Experience stones as well? I thought it was just the Lady, Apprentice, and Atronach.

    Those are restoration effects :) and it worked last time I checked it.  :)

    You know, you cant increase your magic resistance to 100%, it caps at 85%. However, you can increase your resistance to the elements by another 85% via the resistxelement effect.
    Spell Absorbtion doesn't have a cap.

    You should make some tests (again) to check if it really works.

    I did not realize that this worked with the experience stones that frees up so much of my free time it's ridiculous.

    I just finished testing this on the Guardian stones sadly it does not work.

    I love using the Lady Stone, enhanced by 2000% on my Vampire Lord builds. Vampires are supposed to be immortal and tough, right?

    Well crap, thank you for the heads up must be either a faulty memory on my part, or one of my mods did it.  I will go through and edit the page thank you.

    Yeah, I thought this was the case. A shame it doesn't work though, it'd be a great substitute for the old Oghma Infinium glitch.

    You can do this with the Atronach, Lord, and Lady only.

    Atronach grants full absorbtion of Magicka, Lord grants immunity to magic and an armour bonus, and Lady has the potential to make your Stamina and Health regenerate crazy fast.

    Technically seen you can do it with the Apprentice as well, but.. well who the hell wants to be MORE than 100% weaker to magic!? You could permanently be under the influence of the Altmer ability, with the drawback that you're literally allergic to magic. One stray flame and you drop dead.
