Post » Thu Jun 07, 2012 6:16 am

my high elf is currently on 280 magicka through his start bonus and levels,but im also wearing a hood that boosts magicka by 40,a ring that boosts by 30 and a necklace that boosts by 40 yet it only seems to counts the 280 amount.is this a bug or is the bonus hidden somehow.

If the stat is being affected by gear, it should show up as green in color in the constellation screen.

It should show your stat highlighted in green if you have fortified your stat in anyway. I will check this out now.... back in a few minutes

What is your magic level if you take all of these items off? Does it change?

Well upon testing it, you should see it highlighted green if you have increased your magica from it's unfortified level.

it dosent change at all and its not written in green

It would therefore appear to be a bug :shrug:

Orcs have a racial ability that affects both smithing and enchanting.

Is it just your magicka stat that does that or is it for other stats such as health or stamina modifiers?
