Does changing the difficulty in Skyrim affect XP?

Yes, you generally level up combat-related skills (One-Handed, Two-Handed, Archery, Destruction, Light/Heavy Armor, and Block) faster on higher difficulties in Skyrim. This is because enemies have more health, requiring more hits to kill, and deal more damage, allowing you to train defensive skills more rapidly.

Does changing difficulty in Skyrim affect anything?

The difficulty modifier doesn't decrease player damage dealt, but rather NPC damage taken. While the distinction might seem odd, it means that enemies do the same reduced damage to other NPCs that you do, making companions and conjured atronachs/undead incredibly useful.

Is level 30 the max enchant?

Yes, level 30 is the maximum enchantment power you can get from a standard enchanting table in Minecraft, requiring 15 bookshelves placed one block away to enable those options, though the actual enchantments granted have randomness. While you can technically get slightly higher power (like 32) by completely surrounding the table, it doesn't offer better results and level 30 remains the effective max for high-tier enchantments, achieved with a specific setup.

Is there actually 7000 steps in Skyrim?

Trivia. In an interview, Todd Howard jokingly mentioned that he would count all the steps leading up to High Hrothgar to make sure it's 7,000. Counting each visible step will only get one to around 700–800, though the path itself is quite worn and snow seems to cover much of it.

What happens when you 100% a skill in Skyrim?

When a skill reaches 100 in Skyrim, it stops gaining experience, but you can make it "Legendary," resetting it to level 15 and refunding its perk points for reallocation, effectively removing the level cap and allowing continuous character leveling by re-mastering skills. This lets you earn more perk points to unlock perks in other trees, gaining more character levels and continuing to increase Health, Magicka, or Stamina, while the "Legendary" skill starts gaining XP again from 15.

Expert or Master. Anything below Expert makes most mobs a push-over and thus makes the experience boring unless you have other restrictions in place. Legendary is too extreme, you cant fight most mobs even in heavy armour without excessive amounts of + armour/damage perks.

Does race affect anything in Skyrim?

Yes, race matters in Skyrim, but mostly for starting skill bonuses, unique racial abilities (like Argonian water breathing or Khajiit unarmed damage), and minor roleplaying elements like NPC dialogue, rather than making any race unplayable or locking you out of content. While starting bonuses help in the early game, most racial differences become less significant as you level up skills through actual use, allowing for flexible character builds across any race.

Does higher torment mean better loot?

Yes, higher Torment tiers mean better loot in Diablo 4, but it's primarily due to more loot drops and higher chances for top-tier items like Ancestrals and Greater Affixes, not necessarily better base item quality per drop; the key is efficiency, so play the highest tier you can clear quickly for the best loot-per-minute. Higher tiers offer more Legendaries, unique drops, and better chances at Ancestral/Mythic gear and Greater Affixes, with T4 providing the most significant rewards like the best item level gear.

The rarest enchantment in Minecraft is currently Wind Burst, exclusive to the mace and obtainable only from ominous vaults in Trial Chambers with a small chance (3%). Previously, Frost Walker was considered the rarest because it's a "treasure" enchantment not found at enchanting tables, but Wind Burst's specific acquisition method makes it significantly harder to get for most players, even requiring combining multiple books for higher levels.
