Go out in the day, can be done, create strong health stamina regen enchants (200%) This nullifies the weakness to sunlight debuff.
While I agree, how do you make any money? You have to sell yourself in the daylight, since everything is closed at night, although... If you join the college, you can always wake somebody up to sell you stuff. I hadn't really considered that.Go out in the day, can be done, create strong health stamina regen enchants (200%) This nullifies the weakness to sunlight debuff.
200% Health and Stamina Regen enchantments don't grow on trees, and the hours and hours you'd spend working on that would be better spent playing a goddam vampire who avoids sunlight because that's what vampires do.

Still, doesn't it seem like wasting 1/2 your game time hanging out in your coffin? My characters usually don't sleep more than 3 or 4 hours at a time (kind of like me in real life), so, what are they supposed to do the rest of the time? Read?
While I agree with you. Skyrim vampirism very different from traditional vampirism as vampires are seen in the daylight all the time and, other than regeneration, really aren't all that limited.
My vampires rarely let the sun cause them issues. Most of them are insomniacs in any case so short periods of rest are more than enough and they spend most of their daylight periods underground or in ruins that are out of the sunlight.
I suppose, if the sun did actual damage (as it did in Oblivion), it might be a different question, but, it doesn't.
My vamps (and characters for that matter), rarely, if ever, steal anything and MUST be as rich as Midas as quickly as possible.
I would find myself exceedingly bored if I required 12 hours of downtime in every 24, just because I had a disease.
Besides, unless you're playing a complete sleezeball, at some point you are going to need to interact with other people (and not just by murdering them or ripping them off) civilly.
I do my best to disguise my true nature (hoods, masks, etc...), but still interact.
I agree that you could do your selling between 7 and 8 pm and do your crafting at night, but, to me, why not do it in the daylight. When you're in town it's the safest you're going to get, so you may as well take advantage of the situation.
Oh! And another thing I NEVER do. I do not feed, except on the castle cattle. None of my vampires are the monstrous bloodsuckers that they would so obviously like you to be. Besides, why feed all the time? Sure you're more susceptible to fire and lower in HP, but your abilities make up for that and you can always use enchantments and potions to make up the rest.
This is why I don't roleplay in games, its my character, he operates the way I want him to.
'In character' folks, whilst commendable for sticking to a role, don't inspire me in any way, why put restrictions on your behaviours just because your character doesn't do that cause he's a "This" or "That"?
Only you is going to be playing that character, not talking to vendors or restricting yourself to not sleeping in a city... For real?
Since Npc's and the world of the game have no brain, or emotions, whether you play a "This" by the book, doesn't matter they aren't going to react and say "What a Good roleplaying ol' chap!".
Perhaps it comes down to how In character you want to get I suppose, which never appealed to me all that much. Alot of people on here spend more time on backstory than the actual playthrough.
My Orc doesn't really need a backstory, and I never set Terms or templates for new builds.
If I had put limitations on my Orc, I'dve never found out about Necromancy, or even got far in the game at all.
@thomasblaine
The condescension is overwhelmingly palpable and it is not pleasant in the least.
Please refrain from condescending towards forum members. It will gain you no friends.
Name calling and playing at the "you're stupid" game because I do not agree with you is uncalled for.
Fortunately, this forum has something called "ignore" and you will certainly receive it from me.
To address a few minor issues:
1) Vampirism in Skyrim is not vampirism in Oblivion or any other TES game. It is treated as a disease. While you are technically undead, your are able to act and "live" as you see fit.
2) Moral arguments don't fly with me. Moralism is a pointless game or "Behave as I say or else"
3) I did say that damage was suffered by vampires from the sun in Oblivion. I am neither a newbie nor an idiot.
4) We each roll-play in our own way. Your roll-play is perfectly valid and I admire your dedication to a narrow definition as you see it. I will roll-play in my own way.
Thank you for your attention and Good Night Sir! I said Good Night!
