- They are meant for the tutorial and nothing else, but if I just pretend the whole game is one big tutorial then they should be alright...right?

That laugh after "I've got a bone to pick with you, Uriel" makes me concerned that these challenges are slowly breaking down Nerbit's sanity.
Slowly?
@@Nerbit13098 He was sane at one point?
@@singletona082....
@@Nerbit13098 you be speedrunning it lol
I mean how sane was he to begin with?
“I’m guessing you’re an experienced barbarian, right?”
“No, I’m a Rusty Recker.”
“Close enough.”
As someone who started playing Fallout 3, New Vegas and Oblivion because of your runs…you make them look a lot easier then I thought Nerbit
Oblivion is easily the most difficult out of the 3 due to the way it's levelling system functions. if you don't know what I am talking about I would advise watching this: czcams.com/video/NNlILuseQJw/video.html it goes into great detail about why the game can get incredibly difficult very fast
@@Nerbit13098 I’ll be sure to watch that video after this one. It’ll be good to know what I’m getting into.
Oh yeah, thanks for that btw. I probably never would’ve committed getting those games if not for your content. Love it man
Challenge runs drove mittensquad and isorrowproductions to bassicly insanity, its only a matter of time
I thought NV would be easy, I just got confused af because that game is different than Fallout 4. 💀
@@AnekoGT but FNV is easy
Imagine if repairing the rusty iron turned it into normal iron.
This run would have become near impossible lol
it would just be longer, cos you'd have to periodically farm goblins for rusty loot.
Knowing Bethesda/Elder Scrolls logic, I wouldn't be surprised if that was an idea at one point.
@Saoghail Implying that's a bad logic?
@@D990990990More like cut content that could have made the game better, or at least interesting.
"I am skulking about as Tarantino intended...barefoot" is the best line I've heard in a while. Comes real close to (reacting to a car blowing up in Fallout) "That would be funny if you knew where I was from", which is my favorite line I've ever heard in a challenge run.
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for Nerbit to beat Fallout New Vegas as Agent 47
Will definitely get to this one day, if not just a straight up hitman challenge
@@Nerbit13098 I yearn to see it. I first started suggesting it on the Fallout 4 Lincoln video. That comment goes more in depth about the run
@@Nerbit13098 Can you beat hitman as the courier coming soon?
We should collectively workshop a kill list to add a little *zing* to the challenge.
@@Justin-zp7rz as someone who plays hitman (the new ones), yes, you can play that game pretty much however and it's not super difficult
I'm glad we finally know that Nerbit, is indeed, an Axe Man
Indeed, if the opportunity is there to use one I am doing it no matter the game lol
Patrician taste, my friends
@@Nerbit13098 Thank you for the reply. I always look forward to your videos. Hope all is well. Keep Axe-ing Questions, lol
Im a fan of big axes in particular, much more enjoyable than dwarven chests and the like

Ah yes, the Salad Fingers run we've all been waiting for! 'The feeling of rusty weapons on my salad fingers...'
Best comment on this video
He missed the opportunity to play as an orc.
@@logan_wolf Honestly if Nerbit sees this comment, I hope he'll consider an official salad fingers run in the future, then maybe we can get the distorted Orc we deserve
thanks for reminding me that oblivion exists, gonna go binge play it for 200 hours and forget about it for another 2 years
200?? bruh how long will that take u, I never have time för games anymore :( fucking ot every week lmao
@@belladonna442 Probably 200 hours.
@@PureRok you got him with the floor is made out of floor meme ++++respect man🤣
As someone who usually plays with absolutely no armor (just usually wearing clothes) it made me laugh that you decided to use the 5 extra points of frost damage rather than using it for another 10 damage resist to both physical damage frost damage.
Yeah, for those who don't know, the 'elemental shield' spells actually increase your armor as well, which is why I typically keep the shackles and look for clothes that have seperate pants and shirts, shoes, and a nice hat for my lizard wizard.
wondered about that as well. frost, fire and lightning shield are the best possible sigil stone bonuses at low lvls imo.
@m no. gauntlets lower the spell effectiveness anyway since they count as armor.
@m No, but I've never really found any gloves in Oblivion, so I keep them back for any perma-enchants I want (which means they usually sit in a box till I'm the highest level I can get for leveled loot, then save-scum a little bit on the gates till I find the enchant I want/is useful enough to keep.)
Another plus of these kinda things, least clothes wise (which probably wouldn't have helped in the challenge run there) is clothes don't have durability, so typically better in the long run when the max armor you can get is 85, so enchanted heavy/light armor doesn't do much late game.
Edit: Should clarify, when I say 'gloves' I mean non-durability clothing, not gauntlets. Gauntlets on the other hand can't have you wear both of them, so it's a pick between your daedric hand-warmers that can withstand some punishment or a set of shackles that can have higher DR with the right enchantment, a resist as well to an element, and never break.
@@calsifer666 i just said gauntlets cause there are no non-durability items for that slot aside from the shackles.
Same, except I stack reflect damage and absorb Magicka.
I've been randomly rewatching your Oblivion videos and I thought to myself 'Damn it's been a while since the last one'. Well, here we are. Thanks, Nerbit.
No problem man, always love going back to Oblivion
In oblivion, sneak is only effected by the weight of the boots you wear.
Nerbit "I don't know why I thought of this challenge" me "because you love to torture yourself it seems"
So, Can you beat Oblivion with only the starting firebolt spell?
Also, thank you nerbit for the hours of entertainment.
I think the answer to this might just be no, there’s some enemies that are straight up immune to fire damage, and depending on your level they might become involved in the main quest. It might still be possible, but require some real trickery.
Much like this run, you could never level if you hoped to keep any semblance of even chip damage with the spell. Second, lots of Daedra are immune or highly resistant to fire like the other post mentions. Fire is just one of those things that it seems, no matter the fantasy game, Fire is usually the element with the highest amount of enemies resistant or immune to it. (And spells kinda blow in this game by comparison to Morrowind or Skyrim.)
@@metroid3802just don't level
@@CErra310 Problem, I'm pretty sure jumping and taking damage AND using said spell in the first place would make it impossible to not level?-
@@temmieton9755 I mean character levelling. You only level up when interacting with a bed after 10 advances of your major skills, and there is no quest in the main story that requires you to sleep, so your character can stay at level 1 and will have an extreme advantage over every enemy they might encounter since they're scaled to what a Level 1 character is normally capable of
May I suggest, Can You Beat Skyrim With Only Glitches?
Only allowed to progress the game by means of exploiting bugs/glitches, like clipping through walls to bypass a puzzle, only killing enemies with bugs/glitches directly or weapons/spells obtained through the use of bugs, etc.
Any Bethesda game would work, but I think Skyrim is the most fitting.
ooooh, this one is good
Oh this sounds really fun, it would ramp up pretty quickly by the end with stuff like the exploits to use vampire lord spells in human form or to equip infinite rings and amulets
"Beat skyrim using only glitches"
Just like Hodd Toward intended.
the in game book manual of arms explains that "To the uninitiated, axes and hammers may seem to be very different weapons, but the rhythm, drill, and physical strength used by both weapon types are virtually identical." so that is the justification for axes being blunt i suppose
You always seem to upload just when I need something entertaining to watch. Thanks for this, man.
Honestly with how rusty that axe is, it probably would count as a blunt weapon.
Fun fact those 5 extra points of damage would actually have been a 250% increase in damage at the time
I found out that this could also technically be done in Skyrim as well. There is 1 rusty weapon to my knowledge and that is Mace of Molag Bal before Molag Bal restores it to its Daedric Artifact form. He gives it to you and tells you to go beat someone up with it. Theoretically (because I have never tried this) you could grab the rusted mace and leave the quest unfinished. And then you can continue to just use the rusted mace as your weapon
You can also throw it in a weapon rack and keep the rusty variant, as it's not required to use it to defeat the priest. Then, you can go back and loot the rusty variant, and have both it and the actual mace. Fun times.
Fun fact: there are actually two Rusty Iron Daggers. One has stats roughly on-par with the standard iron dagger, and you can loot one off the skeleton's corpse. There's also one with a whopping THREE base damage, which is low enough that, depending on your race, it may display as the inventory as doing 0 damage. Make no mistake, though. It does under one damage per swing and simply rounds down. Someone else and I did extensive testing on this dagger.
Should you want the weaker one, the only place you can get it AFAIK is from the Goblin loot pool. The best place is by those two goblins you roll the logs over in the tutorial.
Ah yes, nerbit videos, with rusty oblivion skills
Oh yes, I love it when your videos drop and this was an awesome idea. Never stop man.
Thanks man :)
The hesitancy in this "...let's begin..." -- I'm delighted.
I've actually thought about doing a similar challenge like this on my own (beat oblivion with only things from the tutorial area so no extra potions or new spells). Your videos are great. Keep up the good work!
I love your oblivion videos. Keep up the good work man
I'm almost obscenely excited to watch this. I used to collect a set of all armour when I was going through the levels. It's a long time since I went though but I did think there was other pieces available outside the tutorial.
Your vids are so entertaining to watch it's insane. Every challenge you face always intrigues me heavily and makes me laugh at some very funny parts. Makes being currently sick not so bad and rather bearable. Thank you.
Also....
Can you beat Fallout 4 as Doom Guy?
Love any and all oblivion content, it was my first major dip into rpg gaming and holds up to this day.
It reminds me of playing in the McDonald's playroom when I was 5, for some reason
@@Alizudo same
You’re actually beginning to become a madman as you do these challenges
this has given me an idea for a oblivion playthrough beating it with only iron weapons and armor also gonna try it with only the rusty gear as well
Just what I needed for a awful day thank you good sir your videos never fail to make me smile
Awsome video as always! Love it!!
Happy birthday nerbit! Was just re watching the gift only run and realized today was the 20th lol
Can you beat Oblivion as an identity theif?
Love your channel btw, got me through the summer
can you beat oblivion as Sheogorath?
Level up once in the sewers, then leave and head immediately to borderwatch to do Sheogorath's quest and receive the wabbajack.
Once you have the wabbajack, you can't use any other weapons.
You can use Aleteration, Illusion, Mysticism and Restoration magics, or anything specific to sheogorath.
Go to the shivering isles after getting the wabbajack.
Reach max level while in the shivering isles and before finishing the shivering isles.
Go finish the main game dressed as sheogorath with the wabbajack.
bonus challenge, pick up any cheese you come across.
Here's one to make you crazy:
Can you beat Oblivion while being chased by an Imperial Guard?
Those bastards are known to teleport great distances just to fine you 5 gold for touching someone's spoon, so good luck.
This is one of those "should have thought of this, but didn't" challenges, shocked I didn't try it, I love challenge runs in this game.
I've done it in both, it is fun. Even made a touch spell/unarmed build one time, which I made the mistake of turning into a glass cannon. Will probably try it again some other time, but better.
Perfect timing, was having a pretty crap day and this was the perfect thing to distract myself
When you give Commentaries Volume 4 to Tar-Meena you don't need to wait the two days for her to decipher the books, you can then go straight to the glowy spot afterwards, cool video as always
Seriously hearing that Oblivion music is giving me so much nostalgia. God how I'd love to relive that game all over again.
After making challenges for myself( no cheating, exploiting glitches, no fast travel etc) I find Oblivion a lot more submersive especially after beating the entire game. Also by never changing the difficulty
Axes are blunt weapons in how they're used to fight, an axe has a blade, but you do not wield it as a cutting weapon such as a knife or sword, you use the blade to accentuate the weight and crushing strikes, smashing things with a side order of sundering rather than slicing and cleaving
I've seen a ton of your Fallout videos, but this vid makes me think I'm missing out by not seeing your other series challenges. Honestly, I think you can make narrating a challenge for *any* game entertaining.
I suffer from psychosis, I've tried to throw myself out of my window twice this year and seeing recent videos for a game that marked my adolescence makes me feel better for just a few minutes.
It brings back a lot of good memories and also a time when I felt good
Thanks
That Super Chris Pratt 64 joke got one hell of a laugh out of me, thanks Nerbit
CZcams has so much Meh I’m always happy too see a new nerbit video on my home. Or an old one I’ll watch the entire catalog 3 times before I’ve gotta give it a month. It would be a super funny addition if rusty weapons could give tetanus, that would kill an enemy over like 3 hours.
I’ve never played oblivion and yet I still watch these because I enjoy you suffering ❤
I really enjoy your oblivion runs.
When you said oblivion has meat shields for most of the quest line I really enjoyed that part of the game. I remember feeling as if the npcs were doing some work
This made me think about how a "tutorial items only" runs would go? You can use everything you gather in the prison for Oblivion or Helgen in Skyrim. This means you can only use healing from what you find there, can't upgrade weapons beyond what materials you can find, and only starter spells. I wonder if its even possible?
Considering how exploity Skyrim is, should be really easy.
Nerbit has done a sparks-only run, so the answer is yes.
The Sigil Stone rolling around outside the Great Gate was powering the Big Crawling Metal Thingy
Hey I’ve got an idea for a video.
Follow the green pact as a wood elf. In case you don’t know what that is. The wood elves cannot use any plant products.exclusively animal and mineral. This one will make the run an actual challenge.
Arrow made of wood? Can’t use it. Bow made of wood? Can’t use it. Is the handle of that sword made of wood? Can’t use it. What’s that potion made of? Most likely plants, can’t drink it. You’ll have to craft your own potions.
They cannot kill unnecessarily, so you have to justify every kill. Either self defense or required materials. Pretty easy
No lycanthropy, so if you join companions you have to turn them down if you were hoping to use werewolf. Pretty easy
You need to eat what you kill, so cannibalism . This one does give you an out in the lore, because it would just be tedious. To walk up to every single body you kill to eat it.
Many wood elves don’t engage in cannibalism and it is considered to be an extreme interpretation in the modern day. Though not illegal. It’s viewed in the same way that we might look at people in our own religious groups, who go those extra miles that even the top leaders say are unnecessary.Like a Christian refusing to eat pork because of Leviticus for example.
But you will have to eat the meat of every animal you kill and/or collect their hides. Every life is precious, and if you take one the body cannot go to waste.
Always a good day when nerbit makes a video 🙏🏼
To be fair, if someone ran up to you and hit you with a rusty weapon, you're probably getting an infection after that.
i feel butterflies when you do a new upload. love from brazil
A piece of advice I was given in my own Oblivion challenge run:
Pick the Lord Stone.
The healing power is a lesser one nad so its an insanely spammable healing power that can save your ass.
Oblivion is one of my favorite games and I didn't even know rusty weapons were a thing. I guess I learned something today!
That's weird, did you never use the tutorial equipment?
@@donovanfaust3227 lol, is that what you actually start off with? I could have sworn it was iron. Or maybe I've jsut modded my game too much because I can't remember the last time I saw "rusty" in the title for anything.
An Oblivion challenge video.
Hell yeah.
Another great video
My favourite part is when you rubbed a bone over uriel
Gosh, the Oblivion music is so beautiful.
Thanks to Nerbit I just got oblivion and I love it. Amazing game
The oblivion weapon categories make sense, they're just named badly. Blunt should be named hafted. They're all forward center of mass weapons, while blade skill weapons are center of mass towards the grip.
Great Video Mr. Nerbit!
Thanks man :)
13:40 "As far as I'm aware, those robes don't rust."
You could argue either way. Iron oxide dust is a pigment used in making red dye, so those robes may very well contain rusty iron after all.
never played oblivion dont really plan on it but you and mdb make it entertaining
I finally realized something I should've a while back.
Oblivion is like the forgotten Nordic brother of new vegas
noice, new nerbit vid
~~also wanted to bring back my idea for beating Nuka-World as a Legionary~~
Nerbit perfect time the lunch bell just rang 10/10
I remember playing through Oblivion the first time, wearing the rusty armor with a Mythic Dawn hood on my Argonian (named Monty Python because I had just seen Spamalot off Broadway). This really does feel like it's channeling every first time Oblivion player.
Always love a good “caught a fish this big” joke!!!
Here is a terrible idea I did one time: Fighting only with Restauration magic. I made it up to Level 35 before it got a real chore, but absorb health is pretty strong, actually.
Another top quality video to add to the pile
I got a very well timed ad right after you said to Uriel: I've got a bone to pick with you, Uriel!
The ad cut off your laugh and it was a sigh hahaha
I think the reason Axes are Blunt in Oblivion is because Axes, Maces, and Hammers require simmialr skillsets like you have to get used to the awkward weight distribution and Edge Alignment isn't nearly as Important, but I also don't know HEMA at all so I don't actually know how to use them at all
You are correct. Axes are top heavy and have a small cutting edge, so their most effective use is as a crushing weapon. While axes were historically rarely supposed to be used in combat, many that were were used as armor crushers, just like maces.
So ia bit more of a intresting challange. I recommended this on your Reddit as a "side note" to my Fallout 76 challenge runs, but the more i think about it, the more i wanna see it...
"Can you beat Fallout 4 as the Silver Shroud?"
Hey Nerbit I’ve been a fan for a while and was wondering if you could beat my favorite elder scrolls game Morrowind in some obscure way.
Thanks for the consistent weekly content. 👍
17:11 I always assumed that Cyrodiil just makes really bad axes.

nerbit: heh heh..

nerbit: *GASP* you your just phuckin with me!
Without even finishing watching the AD before tge video, i come here to say, yes. Just get to about level 7-9, get 3 frost/shock shield sigil stones. At that level they will give 25 pts of shield. That will be 75 armor for you, right before kvatch.
Fill the rest in as you like.
As for weapon, steal the grand soul gem from the Arcane University, and when you have access to an rnchanter tablr, do weakness to magic, to an element, and 100 dmg of same element on a dagger. Also go get azuras star to fuel your rusty weapon of your choice. Enjoy.
Sorry i was in a hurry, and from phone, so i cant edit. Plz excuse the grammar
I've got a good one for you. "Can you beat Mad Max by only healing with fury attacks"?
Rules: No canteens, no maggot meals or canned dog food, and no fresh kills from lizards or rodents. Only regain health from fury executions. Heading back to 1 of 4 strongholds is an exception due to refilling ammo. As I who have 156 hours in, over 6400 kills and maxed out all stats with a now level 224 Road Warrior in Mad Max, I would LOVE to see you do this challenge.
"What would happen?"
I suspect you will go through an absurd amount of repair hammers.
This was a neat one to watch. Running myself, I would allow use of rough leather equipment, too... but I'm not doing this run :D
With that said, I once more ask: can you beat FNV with only automatic weapons?
"I've got a bone to pick with you, Uriel" nerbit my guy, it's ok to be mad, so much elder scrolls and a little sheogorath gets inside anyone.
Two Fallout challenge ideas:
Can you beat Fallout 3 with only the Mesmetron(if you so choose you can also use the Microwave Emitter)
Can you beat New Vegas with the Compliance Regulator
I love that this rusty run is done with a character named Tetanus Terry!
Thinking about the "Sponsor" you need to meet in the main story, you COULD sneak in a placement there, if you had one available
"We are meeting the sponsor who is about to tell us about RAID SHADOW LEGENDS, who are sponsoring this video"
Fallout 4 as the terminator, so there’s a bunch of mods called” talk like arney” you can only use ballistic and any not heavy energy weapons, you can wear any not faction and or advanced weapons, so basically any civilian clothes, your probably gonna use a leather jacket and double barrel shotgun, also you have to defeat or save all robots, also I’m not sure if your able to find a mod, but any mod that gives you a kid companion, you have to use him and give him a switch blade, also if you find any neat terminator mods, you can use them( you can show my name in the video… if you ever see it)
You did it you mad man you actually did it
Thank you, just thank you!
Oblivion :)
You are my hero man!
Thanks man, love playing Oblivion so it always feels great to see others enjoying the few Oblivion videos I have done :)
@@Nerbit13098 It didn't disappoint! Have a great weekend!
Hey Nerbit! In the spirits of Halloween! I got a challenge for you!
"Can you beat Fallout: New Vegas as Freddy Krueger?", a challenge where you have to beat the game as ghoul (as a mod, of course). But you have to only wear (Dirty) pre-War spring outfit, any fedora hat (meaning Dapper Gambling Hat, Fancy Gambling Hat, Stylish Gambling Hat, Fedora, or Vance's Lucky Hat), Your main weapon will always be Deathclaw Gauntlet or Fist of Rawr (or Fist of North Rawr with Wild Wasteland Trait).
The Twist now would be that you can only kill people when they're asleep, as we obviously know that every npc (not including Mr. House since he technically is in a bed machine) goes to bed. Though you can use Mister Sandman perk, as you please but it would be easier just sneak up then give them a love tap with a giant deathclaw fist. But what faction to choose from for the ending would be really up to anyone's choice to see what Freddy would choose, although he is just a psychopathic dream serial killer.
This challenge idea came from both videos of "Can you beat Fallout: New Vegas as Leatherface?" and "Can you beat Fallout 3 with only a toy knife" where you played as a nerf version of Jason Voorhees. So figured to keep the horror slasher theme going!
I feel like a "Fallout NV as Chuck Norris" would be pretty interesting, we was the Texas Ranger afterall.
Outfit would be up to your favorite flavor of Norris, for weapons there's a bit more variety however as he's used/owned Rocket launchers, Breach nade launchers, 1911s, shotguns, a flamethrower, Smith and Wesson revolvers, LMGs, assault rifles/semi-auto rifles, Winchester rifles and of course his hands and time altering kicks.
It's been months since this posted, and 'How Tarantino intended' has lingered in my brain after that barefoot comment. Fam.
I think a Beat Oblivion challenge should include Nights of the Nine and Shivering Isles. But then Uncle Sheo would want you to suffer through the madness.
