Couple of updates to the game.

Posted By | On 05th, Mar. 2013

Bethesda has just rolled out a beta build of the 1.9 Update for Syrim, and it comes with an intriguing set of new features that should drastically alter the end game.

The patch brings a “Legendary Difficulty” to the table and an increased level cap of 100. In addition to that, skills at 100 can be made “legendary”, which will reset the skill to 15, similar to the Prestige system found in Call of Duty. However, you still retain the perks letting you develop the skill even further.
