I wanna improve alteration, pickpocketing, illusion and conjuration faster.
those are the skills i use the least how do i improve them faster? i know there are certain magic spells that help u level up pretty fast for example, muffle is super fast for illusion magic but i need to be at least over 20 in level to use that spell since it's apprenctice.
any ideas of what spells i use to level up faster?
and whats the most efficient way for pickpocketing?

bound sword levels you pretty fast, just keep casting it while in combat, and thats really the only one of those skills i powerleveled up.

You could also get the mages stone with lovers comfort, i think thats increasing you xp by 30 percent

The more the spell is powerful the faster the skill increases, especially at lower levels.

i have the mage stone but idk if i should go for the lovers stone near markarth or not..

For conjuration I like to raise all the bodies of the people I've killed, and then kill them again!

For conjuration I did the following:

Activate the mage stone, aggro a giant, run to a place where the giant cannot reach you (a rocky outcrop, the giant camp up against the mountains to the south of Whiterun is ideal) then cast bound sword over and over.

Pickpocket only levels on a successful pickpocket, but it tends to jump up several skill points per success (at least early on). Activate thief stone and go on a pickpocket spree. The more valuable the item, the more experience you get for it too I believe.

Lover's stone is only 10%/15% but grants it to all skillsets.

To level conjuration cast Soul Trap on a dead body. When you run out of Magicka wait for an hour and repeat.

i know the lover stone does that but here is my question..
doesnt soul trap raises conjuration faster than bound sword?
and for pickcpocketing it's such a heavy risk..u need to keep saving and reloading..

Since most of them are magic, get the Mage Stone near Riverwood, make armor/accessories with -cost to Alteration/Illusion/Conjuration or magicka regen, and have a husband/wife and sleep in a random bed to get the Lovers Comfort bonus, then proceed with the following:

Alteration: Spam Detect Life in Whiterun.
Conjuration: Spam Soul Trap on the dead body of a Bandit *or anything that gives you a Grand Soul, Bandits are the best option though*
Illusion: Cast Courage/Rally on NPC's in town until you can get Muffle, then spam Muffle.

Pickpocketing? Get the Thief Stone and have a husband/wife blablabla and Enchant gear with % increase to Pickpocketing and go on a spree~ Steal items that are more expensive, but remember to save often~

Well, I got my conjuration from 15 to 100 in about 2 to 2 1/2 hours tops spamming bound sword, so I can't really say whether or not soul trap is faster.

i have the mage stone but only one more question, i just checked the jarl's wizard of whiterun and he doesnt have detect lie, where do i find it then?

Just find a dead thing(mudcrab, thalmor, whoever) and just soul trap it for Conjuration. Every soul trap spell on the corpse raises Conjuration. For Alteration, use telekinesis on an object. For Illusion, spam Courage on Heimskr.

For illusion cast courage on everybody in town, it's also funny for chickens. And use either fear or calm on wild animals.

Lovers Stone gives a 15% boost to all skills. The only way to power level pickpoketing is to get training in it or do it - to not get into trouble pickpocket bandits. The beggar in Windhelm is the easiest trainer to find. For Alteration cast Oakflesh and Candlelight. For Conjuration use bound sword and familiar. For illusion use clairavoyance and fury until you can get muffle. Since three of the skills are magic use the wizard's stone.

You can pickpocket the pickpocket skill trainer for a good few easy levels but that will only go so far before it is impossible to steal back the amount of money you pay for the increase but after then, it's easy to steal high priced stuff anyway.

Alteration a little trick is to use telekinesis on an item while using enchants that reduce the spell cost of alteration.

Conjuration is one of easiest skills to level up. just find an enemy that cannot reach you (slaughterfish while standing on land is best bet) and repeatedly cast bound sword. you can get to level 100 in just over an hour this way.

Illusion just repeatedly cast muffle spell while walking around. just use courage or clairvoyance to get it to 25.

These I guess you could call exploits as its power leveling so be wary. You will be missing out on a more enjoyable experience if you use these as I have found out on different replays.

Muffle will shoot your Illusion up like no ones business. You don't even have to be near enemies.

alteration isnt working so well for me guys im using oakflesh and candlelight and no luck

I used to do these kinds of things in Oblivion. Now I just find ways to pay the trainers so I can enjoy the game without spamming my skills all the time...though I still go a bit heavy on conjuration because it's such a great problem solver.

Try their more powerful counterparts.

Take a look at http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Spells.

You can get the transmute spell almost straight away in game. That is probs best bet as works hand in hand with a other skills (and great for money!), until your high enough level to get telekinesis.

thank u im gonna buy detect lie from tolfdir but what this means is i need to start the college of winterhold missions.

Waterbreathing in waist deep water leveles Alteration pretty fast.
Calm or Muffle raises illusion
Soul Trap a corpse to raise conjuration
There's a trainer in windhelm that warms her hands at the forge in the marketplace at night and she trains pickpocket. Train in pickpocket, then steal the money back. It also helps to have that first pickpocket perk, gives a 20% bonus.

If you run out of magicka casting, just wait one hour and repeat.

Don't forget you don't have to be that level to use the spell. The level is only for when it is available for purchase from someone. If you find a lvl 50 spell on travels at lvl 1 you can use it if you have enough magic *cough* Bound Bow *cough*.

Well some spells are given as quest rewards or are available after your skills reach an enough high level, but there are still a lot that would do the trick. Just look the level of the spell.

i tried tolfdir he didnt had it, i guess that's because my alteration isnt improving AT ALL since im only at level 16 in alteration.......
