How do you SHOUT?

Post » Wed May 16, 2012 2:45 am

I'm at a quest where they are asking me to shout to prove I am Dragonborn. I'm on PC. I tried equipping the shout but that doesn't work. I'm totally clueless, I've been trying to shout for like 20 minutes. The guide doesn't tell me how to shout I think.

Did you save it to a favorite? Make sure its checked off under shouts, since you can only have one equipt at a time
If you look on the controls setting (where you can remap everything), it should tell you what key to press

Z


It's the default key for shouts / racial abilities / powers.

(I'd bet that you can find a list of many commands - or at least the rebindable ones - by going into the options menu and looking for the "controls" section.)


And I think they finally got the Skyrim manual out on Steam. Not sure where to find it, though. I've got the book from my boxed version.

How to shout?

1) inhale deeply
2) exhale forcefully while activating your vocal cords

or

1) activate caps lock
2) type in the tips and hints Skyrim forum ;)

Try typing in all caps

Otherwise, on page 2 of the manual, it lists Z as the default to shout. But first you need to go to "magic" and assign a shout

Thanks. I've made like 4 posts in this forum and already got someone metaphorically jumping up and down, waving their fingers at me and screaming "HE'S MADE A MISTAKE" in Cicero's voice.

You lost 90% of people at the name 'Cicero' :teehee:

Remember, on a game forum you'll get mature people, immature people, and immature petty people. The last two post the most often and most excitedly. Plus, everybody's human

I'm using the 360 controller with my PC and the only way that I can initiate the Shout (after selecting it either via the Favorites menu or the Magic menu) is through the right bumper on the 360.
