Mind you, do the loop only once. 3709 unarmed damage feels a bit broken after a while.
Wait, what is this alchemy-enchanting loop?

Someone help me out here

A while ago I made this: http://hugoluman.deviantart.com/art/Thalmor-Inquisition-308671100

But now I've someone complaining in the comments that there are no parallels between the Thalmor and the Third Reich, and that the Thalmor are a just organization who's main goal is stopping Talos worship because of how evil men are and their great elven genocide.

So what kind of help do you expect? I mean... I can help you ignore the troll if you want, but I don't think it's going to make any difference.

No the Thalmor is a government faction from the Summerset Isles who's main goals is to destroy all Imperial influence from Tamriel. They blackmailed the Bosmer and the Khajit into joining their organization and pretty much almost wiped out most of human influence until the treaty. The Talos worship was a throw in for them and they would still screw everyone over with their Xenophobic views.

To kill Man is to reach Heaven, from where we came before the Doom Drum's iniquity. When we accomplish this, we can escape the mockery and long shame of the Material Prison.

To achieve this goal, we must:

1) Erase the Upstart Talos from the mythic. His presence fortifies the Wheel of the Convention, and binds our souls to this plane.

2) Remove Man not just from the world, but from the Pattern of Possibility, so that the very idea of them can be forgotten and thereby never again repeated.

3) With Talos and the Sons of Talos removed, the Dragon will become ours to unbind. The world of mortals will be over. The Dragon will uncoil his hold on the stagnancy of linear time and move as Free Serpent again, moving through the Aether without measure or burden, spilling time along the innumerable roads we once travelled. And with that we will regain the mantle of the imperishable spirit.

Which is funny cause the dragons were killing anyone so THEY can take over the world.

I thought that the protagonists of the TES games were the ones killing everyone and becoming gods.

Quote from: BrightScale
I don't see how half of what you said is relevant, but ok. But remember, men also took argonian, khajiit, other men and sometimes elves as slaves. It was a two way thing.

And they are not 'quite obviously' related to nazis. Tell me one thing, which is the greater evil, stopping the worship of a man who fucked their race over and murdered Every. Elven. Royal. And considering yourself better than those who did it as we'll as taking slaves in a time where everyone took slaves, or taking over a continent forcefully, disbanding the government, killing off three races, killing the royal and Nobel families because they did not want to join the empire, and considering yourself better and taking slaves in a time where everyone took slaves.

I fail to see how the elves are the bad guys in this situation. Everyone fucked up. Yes, elves, men, pretty much the only clean people are the beast races. But all in all, elves got the short end of the stick, and are trying to right that now.

And however much Kirkbride helped, it was never officially used. So not actually credible.

I'm starting to think I'm dealing with some kind of Otherkin elf-lover here.

To admit "Elves" are not the problem. This nation that is run overwhelmingly predominantly by elves is the problem.
