Debra, target them for ranged? If so, there is a talent you can take which slows time down and makes it easier to hit.

I'll certainly take that talent then. My cursor moves so quickly that I can't target well and the enemies seem to jump and move like rabbits. I'm getting the game guide to help me. I can't believe it's almost 700 pages!
Maybe I've gotten too old to play this type of game.

Never too old Debra. That talent helps a lot. I just have 1 point in it, but will get another when I can (if life ever lets me play again).

For those of us who are playing Skyrim on the PS3 there is great news. The Patch has solved the lagging and freezing. It is soooo good to be able to play without random freezing and losing all the work if not saved.

Also, the 24th stone in the quest "No Stone Unturned" that was stuck in the Thalmar Embassy is now available so that the quest can be finished.

Tracy-- I was laughing over your description of my "husband" Balimund's substandard grooming, and then I caught sight of "myself"! I'm covered with grime! I think I will go find those hot tubbers again and have a good soak.

Annie---LOL! Sounds good to me! Maybe Farkas and I will join you guys and bring some wine.

Woo hoo,glad to hear that the patch has solved some folks problems anyway

I haven't been on in a few days because I'm getting ready to move. I'd better get back on before I get rusty, lol. Once I do I'll be asking you all about mods.

I hate when real life gets in the way of my gaming.

Me too JeanK, moving is a real life adventure/action story.

Manxman, how do you get into the embassy to retrieve the stone? I was just there again but the door is locked and you need a key to enter.

Hi Rowan,

Thanks Manx

Manxman, where is Reeking Cave? I know it was marked on my map because I have been there. However, my mapmarker is gone and I can't find it anymore. Is it NW or NE of the embassy? is it near the shore or somewhere higher in the rocks? Thanks for trying to help.

Hi Rowan,
If you go to the embassy, and then go down the rocks to the left of the gate, and onto a path then walk along the path to the right you should come up to the cave. It is not on the world map but if you look at the local map it should be there. Let me know if you need more details

Thank you, Manx. I finally found it. I think the patch also changed the interior look of the cave. I remember that there was a ledge you had to jump down when leaving the embassy. I remember that it was too high for me to jump back up to retrace my steps. Now it isn't there any more. Anyway, I got my gem. Thank you again. I still have 4 more to find. I've finished the main quest so I'm location hopping to find what I've missed.
