Thanks.

I sold the majority of the daedric items after I got them and still got the achievement.

[Matt36]

Brilliant, cheers mate.

Getting a perk to 100 is one of the easiest. Just use one of the many glitches, such as the speech glich in Riften, takes 2 minutes

[Matt36]

Just given the lass the piece of armour to upgrade in the thieves guild, updated to 1.4, went and found the armour in the ratway and no achievement!?

EDIT - sorry, thought it was as simple as giving the armour and getting the achievement, didn't realise you had to do more jobs for Vex after the Darkness returns quest -.-

Out of all the Skyrim achievements, Oblivion Walker is definitely going to take the longest. I have 10 more achievements to get (6 from quest lines) and I'm definitely saving the daedric items for last.

I just 100% Skyrim last night but I'm still far from being done with it. I'm currently a lvl 60 and a half so still room for improvement and I also still need to finish finding the rest of the shout words.

Mate, how are you only lvl 60 1/2 and yet you've completed the game.

I'm on my 4th character (NONE completed). I'm lvl 59 3/4 and I've only completed the Thieves Guild main quest line (not including restoring all guild back to former glory).

Do I arse around THAT much???

You also have to remember that you don't level up by the quests you do, but the skills you use. So, if you go around the whole game using Sword & Shield, and using Light Armor, you'll once you level them all, you can probably do a whole questline without leveling up. Depending on how you like to play (you like one or two things or like to change up how you fight), you may have to go out of your way to level up.

Getting to level 50 was the last achievement for me. I used what I said above, and used Archery for long range. I didn't pickpocket, use much magic (some restoration, but not much), or use two-handed weapons or heavy armor much. And I generally used what I found. I created one potion, one enchanted item, and one smithed item early for the achievement, but afterwards, I barely touched them. My focus was the questlines and I played how I liked.

After all my questlines were done, my light armor, sneak, lockpicking, and speech were 100, and my archery, one-handed, and block were pretty high. But, everything was pretty low, and I wasn't even level 50.

Im level 53 and i haven't even finished the storyline yet because i like doing sidequests. Although im almost done with the alduin quests

[Dite]

Nothing wrong with that. The sidequests can be pretty fun.

It just seemed to surprise you that someone finished the game and was level 60, while you've only completed one storyline and you're level 53, and I wanted to clarify how you level up, since it makes more sense when you know that really, level has almost nothing to do with quests (some raise a skill level on completion, so I won't say completely nothing).
Like I said, I did what was comfortable for me, and I completed all the quests probably around level 40-45. To get the level 50 achievement, I had to grind Smithing. And, I'm currently grinding to reach lv70-80 for the Legendary Dragon achievement (I think I'm at level 68 or 69 now).

I love the black and white they went with.....was hoping with the add on they would have changed it to maybe red and white and keep changing it with every add on but keeping that same design.

[Matt36]

Started up the Dawnguard DLC again, after deciding to take advantage of a little free time over the next week. Trying to get the Vampire Perks for the achievement, but can't figure out if I'm doing something wrong? Am I meant to press RT to 'attack' and then once they're dead I get a perk or....? And where did everyone find best to do it?

Also, I've acquired the bow and gone to speak to Imran, but I assume because I'm a Vamp I can't continue? Compliments me on my bow, calls me a monster etc when I press A on him and I can't continue -.-

[Dite]

For the Vampire Perks, you'll probably want to look at the wikia page if you haven't. Between what I remember and what I read from it, you have to use the Power Bite in melee mode or the Drain Life in Blood Magic mode to "feed" while in Vampire Lord mode. I can't remember if it has to kill them, or if you can do it multiple times to one person before killing them, but I think I just went from city to city doing it till I got the perk (on a seperate save).

For the second part, did you get the Kindred Judgement quest? I think the page says there's a bug where you may not get the quest. And if you did, you only need to go to Isran if you took the Dawnguard side. If you are with the Dawnguards, it could be because you are a vampire. You may need to cure your vampirism (on a separate save, if you want), and return and see if it works.

[Matt36]

All sorted, thanks!

[Lammkottet]

Does anyone know if Oghma infinium glitch still works so its easier to get level 50 achivement?

You can only marry once, so pick wisely.
