Does the level cap go past 81?

do you really need anymore than 81?

No it does not

No and what need is there to go any higher?

Uh yes! I'm already 81 on one of my saves......so much for those new perk trees

This.

The Vampire Lord and Werewolf Perks are increased through using their respective Powers, not through Skill increases. So no, it does not raise the level cap.

And why would you need more than 81 anyway? At 81 you have every Skill at 100... what more could be left after that? lol

You can still take the perk trees. They do not level you up but add to what you already have.

Well you don't have every perk . Increasing the cap may give players the urge to play more Skyrim and level up.

Just the sheer epicness of the expansion did that for me. But then, I didn't need any more excuse to play Skyrim. I've been addicted like a heroin addict since 11-11-2011...

I've done every quest/ got every single item you can even glitching some unique items/ visited every location. But I still have yet to 100% Dawnguard

Did you do the Aetherium quest?

What?

New perk trees are unrelated to level, you can max them when you are 81 (though there is no reason to be that high anyways.)

Grab "the aetherium wars" book and read it, it starts a very long and awesome quest.

Does the Aetherium Quest deal with the Dawnguard Expansion? If so I can't, haven't got online to buy it yet lol.

1/10?

The aetherium quest is a new sidequest you get from a book in dawnguard.

It is one of the best quests they have made so far.

Waddayou mean 1/10 ? :/

Sorry if this is old news. It was the only thread I could find don’t know what happened but I just hit lvl 82 today. I think the lvl cap may have been raised. Can anyone confirm the new cap?

In the next TES they should make it so there are 5 extra perks left over when you reach 81, because when you are leveling up one perk tree then don't use them right after you forget what your saving them for and you end up spending them on something else.

Or maybe a one time option of perk reallocation, but that would make too much sense.

No, because there are no new skill trees like let's say acrobat.

I'm level 81 have about 11 points for perks but would like about 20 more. Plus some of the perks you'd like you have to spend 5 to get to them. I didn't know it capped at 81 might've spent them differently if I had. To bad they don't let you pick your perk when you reach 100. So you could conjure 2 mistmen for example without having to spent 4 or 5 points to get to them. Oh well.

No and it doesn't need to.

That can already be done by starting a new character.

So, let me run over this again...

You guys are wanting to either:

1) Be awarded five extra Perk Points,

or

2) Be allowed to completely erase all of the progress, training, learning, etc. that you've done on your character. You don't want to lose your level, but you want to suddenly go from being an astrophysicist to an Olympic gymnast overnight? And this feature isn't in the game, so you sarcastically whine about it "would make too much sense"?

Have either of you read your posts and really taken the time to think about them? Because they're both pretty [censored] ignorant.

Why should you be awarded with a "do over" for you making bad choices with your Perk points? Seriously, the first post I quoted even said that he forgot what he has originally going to spend it on, but because of his abysmal memory capacity, he should be allowed to get an extra five Perk points because he made a mistake.

As for the second post, your idea is just as bad as the first post. It's not Skyrim's fault that you didn't plan out your character well. You can see and read what each Perk does well before you ever get close to unlocking it, therefore you have no one to blame but yourself for any poor choices you've made during point allocation. Why should you be awarded the ability to effectively re-work your characters life after you've shown an amazing capacity for the misappropriation of resources?

Look, you both made mistakes (obviously) in your character builds. Accept it and deal with it. Don't try and pander for features to be added to the game that would literally break the game.

If I start out being an Assassin, and take that build all of the way to level 81, then decide that I somehow [censored] it all up back at level 5 (strange that the effects don't become apparent until 76 levels later though...), why should I be able to hit a button or pay a vendor and all of the sudden I'm a level 81 Mage? And this wouldn't just absolutely [censored] the whole experience of the game?

Imagine a person works his whole life to become the President. He works hard his whole life and finally attains the position he so dreamed of. Then he sits in the Oval Office and thinks to himself, you know I would've rather been an artist... a visionary artist even. Then he goes and pays some shady guy in a back corner of D.C., or even better, wishes on a shooting star, and then wakes up the next morning as Jackson Pollock? Does that sound like it'd make any sense at all?

And especially since there is no way to erase the memory of the rest of the world. People would know that said artist was the president with no artistic ability the day before, what possibly could have happened?

These are horrible ideas. Why should you be allowed to break the game and be awarded for the failure of bad choices? That's just too ignorant to think about.

No. Either deal with the choices you've made, or create a new character. It's not the game's fault that you've reached level 81 and only now are you unhappy with what you've built. So why should the game be held responsible and be made to give you a "do over"?

to increase the level cap bethesda would have to add a new skill into the game... so no, there is no higher cap
