Just for laughs what are the typical mistakes that noobs make in skyrim?
well when i first started skyrim i tried to kill a mamoth early on (classic noob mistake because he killed me).

perking the lock picking tree?

Fight a giant at early levels? Try to fight the Frost Troll near High Hrothgar at early levels? Run right into a trap? Trying to jump on a Dragon? Killing a chicken without patches?

lol try killing a chicken in some towns in skyrim the town guard usually comes after you and arrest or fine you.

Stealth. Every aspect of it used to frustrate the crap out of me.(I'm not a veteran ES player). Till this day I still don't know (and don't really care anymore since my sneak characters go light anyway) if you partly wear heavy armor (like heavy boots or gauntlets); will it affect sneak.

I used to try to commando-style with this character; which is like sneak to close proximity then proceed to freak out and lay it on them with a warhammer. Works OK at low level, but later on I constantly get nailed by archers before I can even take out my weapon (That was when I didn't give a damn about upgrading my armors and weapons).

And I only pump points into miscellaneous skills, like both TW and OH, random points in alteration because I thought that armor increase was cool until I found out that I had to wear clothes only (I seriously thought armor counted as clothes); and how much mana ebony flesh freaking cost without perk.

And I always play on Master... So the first character playthrough was ROUGH, but I was really excited to try out proper stealth. So now suddenly sneak become my favorite playstyle, and I'm trying out so many other derivatives of a sneaky character.

I killed that troll. Just ran around blasting it with fire so its health didn't regenerate. Took me a good 5 minutes, but hey, i still killed it.

Having 50 million markers on the map and thinking there was no way to turn them off. That time I totally failed at reading comprehension.

Forgetting the Golden Claw and the Dragonstone after forgetting about giving the Golden Claw to Lucian until I was level 30.

- Only use Autosave.
- Underestimate the 7,000 steps Frost Troll.
- Be impatient and run to Riverwood without taking a Standing Stone.
- Mudcraps can kill you... this is not Oblivion/Morrowind

Charging in at Krosis.
