Jail questions

Post » Tue Jun 26, 2012 1:19 pm

I heard that if u spend time in prison, some of your skills will decrease.. Im just wondering how that would work if you already spend a perk in certain set of skills. For Example if I have my sneak at 100 and I put a point in Shadow Warrior perk( Shadow warrior perk is a lv 100 perk in sneak). Then I go to prison. Would my sneak level decrease? and if it does would i still have the perk in that sneak skill tree? or would the perk disappear?? Or If i already spend the perk on a skill, then the skill level would not decrease pass that level?? please someone explain to me because I wanna try spending time in jail to see the different in each town but i dont wanna lose my skills level too much.

If I remember it correctly, you lose any progress in leveling up skills, rather than actually losing already accumulated skills.

Edit: According to UESP:
To serve your sentence, simply http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Sleeping in the bed in your cell, and you'll sleep through your entire sentence. Depending upon the length of your sentence, your progress towards one or more http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Skillsadvancements will be reset to zero. Unlike http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Crime#Go_to_jail, you will not lose any past skill increases; instead, it will take longer to obtain the next skill increase(s).

You don't lose your level, you lose your progress to the next level. If you are 3/4 of the way to the next level, you go all the way back to 0 xp towards the next level. If you are at 100, you don't need to worry about losing anything for that skill because you don't need any more xp

xD I wasn't referring to that Orc. Just an Elder Scrolls version of being [censored] in prison by a big hairy black guy.
