>Boots that make you run fast
>But also turn you blind
Is it time to stop pretending Bethesda ever had good design?

>>718992279 (OP)
>interesting tradeoffs instead of boring number go up for every stat
No, that is excellent design.

I can't tell if bait or retarded but at this point I've learned it doesn't matter, retarded by accident or retarded on purpose is just a different flavor of retarded

>Posts the best item in the game
False flagging faggot.

Just a little magic resist, and it's not 100% blindness anymore, so you can actually see where you're going.

>>718992279 (OP)
Make a spell that gives you 100% magic resist for 1 second on self and put the boots on, the effect applies only once when you equip them. Cool item when for the latter part of the game when you've explored most of the map and requires a bit of thinking on the player's part on how to "cheat" the game (I'm pretty sure the devs wanted you to work around the debuff in that way).

woooooow

magic restistance should also resist the fortify speed effect

>>718993186
>should
No. It shouldn't. And it doesn't.

>>718993237
I know it doesn't. But it should. That's also a magical effect.

>>718992279 (OP)
fuk da rest of the suggs. make a spell that gives u sonar/echolocation + ESP. ez shit dawg and a worthwhile tradeoff fo sho

>>718992761
>minmax meta shit
If you're going to do that, why even bother?
Make a spell that gives you 100 INT for 1 second, craft int potions in that second, drink the potions and craft more potions. Make charisma potions and convince the town to give you all their ingredients for free, use them to make more potions, keep drinking until your brain is the size of the universe. Make speed potions, run faster than the collision detection and fall through walls. Make strength potions, hit enemies so hard you shatter your own weapon in one strike. Make endurance potions and equip full Daedric gear then get crushed to death by it when you lose track of the buff and it runs out mid combat.

Whh shouldn't the resist magic effect resist magic?

>>718993436
>Equip magic resist gear
>Can no longer heal self because of Anon's logic
It doesn't apply to positive effects, why would it?

>>718992279 (OP)
Thematically it's a good item, one of the best since it's power at a cost and can be overcome with preparation and ingenuity. This is ideal.
Unfortunately they break combat by trivializing movement, so it's a bad item.

>>718992279 (OP)
The only fun in Morrowind is breaking the game in various ways. It's a poorly thought out piece of shit if you're actually playing it fair.

>>718993662
Because positive effects are still magic, and you're resisting magic?

If you put a resistor for electric current it doesn't matter if the current was meant to have a positive effect (powering your coffee machine) or a negative effect (powering a wood chipper into which your face is being shoved in). The machine stops working regardless.

>install circuit breakers
>my house now has no electricity
I see...

>>718993186
>>718993436
correct and intelligent

>>718993237
incorrect and stupid

>>718994078
Circuit breaker = flips when too much electric, not because it can tell whether the electric is powering a bad bad not good machine or a yes yes very good machine. Why would it be different with a circuit breaker that works with magic?

>>718994325
How does a circuit breaker know what is good or bad electricity?

>>718994464
It doesn't that's literally what I said you illiterate mouthbreathing troglodyte.

>>718994464
GFCI, look it up.
Basically it compares current flow in and out, and if current is leaking somewhere, ie shorting out and cooking you, it interrupts the circuit.

>>718992279 (OP)
Blind is supposed to decrease your hit chance but due to the unbelievable incompetence of Morrowind's programmers it actually increases it.

>>718993432
At that point you might as well save time by opening the console, turning on god mode and setting all stats to 255. You're not playing the game the way it was intended either way.

>>718992279 (OP)
Pretty good bait, OP.
