I was partially wrong about leveling, it's based on damage, but only the base damage of the bow. You can just draw the minimum with a shitty arrow from a now that's not enhanced with blacksmithing and it will give the same amount of xp as if you had a fully enhanced dragonbone bow doing sneak attacks fully drawn.

So now I understand why I've always had a hard time leveling this skill, I had it all wrong. Bound bows doing wimpy quarter drawn shots is what goes fastest.


Ok I'll stick too regular bows

Ty for ur awesome advice
My char is lvl 39 and op as hell
100 smith 100 sneak 90 heavy armor 90 enchant 94 or 95 alchemy and 78 archery
76 conjuration 65 destruction
I'm decked in deadria armor and my follower is decked in dragon chain mail

I'm loving all of these tips advice
Also and tips on maxing out archery??
I use bound bow for unlimited arrows and conjuration
But when u cast it in sneak it makes noise and alerts enimies
On switch I use legendary daderic bow
But yeah any tips on powerlvling archery would be awesome

Again Ty for all tips/advice everyone
I hope this helps viewers as well ;)


there's a perk in illusion, which is one of my favorite. All spells you cast can't be heard by others. Idk what its actually called, but its there. Walk behind someone while invisible, crouch, then fully charge up whatever master level spell you want all while being 100% silent. Or just cast bound sword and power attack them for 1 hit kill. Trouble is, you don't get damage bonuses for spells cast while sneaking and undetected. But there are a LOT of fun spells you can cast without being heard while sneaking.

My char is in his 60s, pretty much same setup as you have but I don't use a follower, I don't like the feel of them in the game. There's a place (I forget where) that if you hit a few targets (which isn't all that hard) will give you like 5 levels of bow skill. I just ran through the game and then had bow at like 95 and stumbled upon this place, then got level 100 bow from it and thought it was pretty sweet since 95-100 take the longest.

Btw you don't need to be around enemies to spam Muffle and raise the level of illusion. I just do it whenever I'm walking anywhere. I actually once legendary'd it twice in 3 or so hours of playing when made a new mage char. Getting illusion and resto to level 100 are by far the easiest.

Speech is a bitch to level. Takes so much selling to get it up one level. Imo that's the hardest to level, but its also the most useless.

The fastest way to level archery+sneak (since it does both at the same time) is to do the Greybeards. Find as many falmer/forsworn arrows as you can (7 damage, lowest in the game) and then go to High Hrothgar and sneak, then fire at the Greybeards, BUT DO NOT KILL THEM. They'll regen and since there are always 2 inside (at least in my experience) you should have a pretty easy time switching targets and doing something always. But don't wait, not only does it take a long time to load on ps3 (in my experience) but they also move around, so just sneak and be patient for them to regen health. And try to save often, because it really sucks when you kill a Greybeard.

nah I'd have to load the game and stuff, but I bet you could google it. But I don't recommend doing it until you're 95 archery, otherwise it'll just take you longer.
