So, it seems you can't unlearn perks, why on earth would Bethesda trash the classes so we can "change our play in the middle of the game" if we regret choosing magic in the first place and not include unlearning perks? Should be some trainer who could untrain you for a fee. Don't you think?

I'm happy you can't unlearn perks makes you have to think about what you want or need to get.

Because this is not WoW Talent Trees derp.

Seriously though, it's probably for balancing.

I mean, you could just perk up in whatever levels you the most, get to level 50, unperk everything, and put it where it gives you the most power.

it has its pros and cons.
with unlearn perks you can do things like give points in smithing make your uber imba dragon armor, and give the points into fighting after thats... quite stupid -.-
but of course it could be that a perk dont work like you guessed, in this case it would be very usefull.
i got this case 1 time when i learned the perk double casting healing and 10 minutes later realized i never heal with both hands xD
BUT in there e is a trick you can use
save game, try perk, if u dont like it, load agian.
same way u can test shouts.



@bashing guys: he is speaking about perks, not the level of tree, so its nonsense if u talk about leveling with something fast and then give perks it in the more powerfull!

Perks are like learning to ride a bike. Once you know how you never forget.

I'm bit of a hypocrite defending the perks because before I played the game, I hated the idea of them and was quite vocal about it. Now I have hands on experience though it isn't nearly as bad as I thought. lesson learnt.

Why would you be able to unlearn perks? It's like spending time practicing tennis, then realizing you should have studied history. So you'll just unlearn all that tennis and learn history instead?

Because in real life its pretty hard to 'forget' skills completely? Besides, there are 50 levels, and 50 perks, so it's not like you only get to pick a few unless you change playstyle at level 45 or something.

same here , thought of doing it manually trough console but there is still magicka problem i put all skills in that :/

Kind of redundant to address people who are bashing when no body has bashed anyone yet don't you think?

Really?

I made a cheat character by raising the skills and stuff, so I got to max level, have tons and oh so many tons of health, like 500, and with a fully specced Restoration tree I used the healing spell I was given at lvl 1 by default and double casted it on myself and it was suprisingly effective.

So I think that double casting can be useful if you're fighting a dragon and need to take cover to heal.
Better than spending money on potions or using a healing spell whilst in battle. (Which 2hand and archers cannot do without unequipping their main weapons.)
