So if you're playing a thief character and see little reason to want to level up your Heavy Armor skill, you won't have to. In theory, you'll be able to earn more perk points and a larger pool of health, magicka and stamina through the system without having to spend much time grinding on skills you don't care to use.

Keep in mind that you'll get your perk points back as soon as you make the skill Legendary, and do the whole thing again. You can level it up as many times as you like and keep accumulating levels. If you level up with it, the skill you're proficient in will have an imperial dragon symbol just below it. The simple gist of it is that the new feature allows players who've maxed out their skills at 100 and reset it back to 15, and thus allow their characters to earn even more options for perks and levels.Īll the perks invested in that skill were returned just as if they had been reset with the Book of Waking Dreams. The new 1.9 beta patch for Skyrim adds an odd, and interesting new feature called Legendary Skills.
