Going to word walls in the wrong order

Post » Tue Jun 05, 2012 2:15 pm

Quick question: is it possible for me to get the third word in a shout before I have unlocked the first and second?

No, that is not possible.

The wall will adjust to give you the next word in a sequence.

I have a question about word walls.

Has anyone else here been able to reuse a word wall? I went to SkyAltar and got my first Frost breath word. Hours later, maybe it was days(I don't remember), I came back to the same word wall(don't remember why) and it gave me the second word for Frost Breath.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Yes, I had the same thing with the word wall right next to Dibella's Temple. Not sure if it's a bug or intended...

I would think it's a bug because it's never happened before.

But there's another one:

This one is probably intended, but I though I could make sure.

When you find the word wall that gives you the Throw Voice shout, it IS supposed to give you all three words to the shout, correct? Because that happened to me, and I wasn't sure if it was supposed to happen or not after the Frost Breath incident.

But I figured it was supposed to happen since Throw Voice it one of the most useless shouts, unless you're a stealthy thief I suppose..

Yes, that shout you learn all three words at once.

I've had a Word Wall give me two Words at once. In between Windhelm and Riften, there is a mountain range where on the Eastern Edge of the range is a Dragon Aerie/Burial site. After defeating the Ancient Dragon there, I walked up to claim my hard fought Word-like prize, and the lid flipped off of a sarcophagus and a Dragon Priest jumps out.

So I kill the Dragon flunky and claim his Mask, and the Word Wall gave me the first two words in a new shout.

Anyone else experience this at that Aerie?

I just had the Skyborn Alter wall give me the third word in Frost Breath instead of the second. But it wouldn't let me unlock it. Thinking that it was supposed to do this, I went to the other location of the shout, Folgunther Only to find that the word wall wouldn't give me the second word. *sigh* Well, I wasn't planning on using it much anyways...

Had this happen to me on one word wall (near Meridians temple). Go pick up some other words, it should hopefully work then.

I'm 99% certain that the same thing happened to me.

You should get all 3 words, if that's the throw voice shout you're talking about.
