Oblivion talk:Feather

"For instance, if you create a custom Feather spell that gives you 100 points of Feather for 120 seconds AND another custom Feather spell that gives you 90 points of Feather for 120 seconds, you can cast them both and gain a net bonus of 190 points' worth of Feather." This sentence seems a bit ambiguous, some people might think that you need to make Feather spells that are of different value (while in fact you can cast as many 100pts for 120 secs Feather spells as you want). I suggest changing that 90 to 100. Lisan al Gaib 10:46, 8 January 2007 (EST)

Good point. In fact that whole paragraph is pretty much redundant with the following paragraph, so I took it out and added in a new example. Hopefully that works better! --Nephele 11:26, 8 January 2007 (EST)

[edit] Where can I find and buy this spell?

I'm not sure I have this spell yet.--ShakenMike 13:08, 25 February 2007 (EST)

Ease Burden is the lowest level feather spell, available from Alberic Litte, Alves Uvenim, Delphine Jend, Druja, Edgar Vautrine, Selena Orania, Sulinus Vassinus, Thaurron or Trayvond the Redguard Jadrax 14:26, 25 February 2007 (EST)

[edit] Run faster

Using Feather over Fortify Strength has the benefit of making you run fastser as it lowers your encumbrance, the more you're encumbred the slower you run. It's not a huge amount, and is only noticable when you already carrying a heavy load. Grandmaster z0b 18:03, 5 March 2007 (EST)

[edit] And longer duration

The other advantage of Feather over Fortify Strength as a spell rather than an constant duration enchantment is that Feather lasts longer. This can be important in a fight, where your Fortify Strength might give out at a critical moment, leaving you frozen in place over-encumbered until you can get it cast again. --Vilhazarog 13:58, 6 March 2007 (EST)

[edit] Sigil Stones and enchantments

Concerning the Sigil Stones, I am currently experiencing what is warned for above - that I applied a Transcendent Sigil Stone of Feather to my cape, only to find out it only gives me a bonus of 33 instead of 125 as promised... This seems to relate to the "zero-weight items" thingy - now the question is, how do I get rid of it? I want to have a 125 Feather cape, but I see no other way except buying another similar cape, adding a Sigil Stone via the console and then reapplying it - or can you do this on already enchanted items? Thankful for any input, even if I suspect the abovementioned is what I have to do. Lovykar 14:14, 4 June 2007 (EDT)

If your problem is related to the Bug described in the article, then simply taking the cape off and putting it back on again should fix the problem. That bug shouldn't affect the actual enchantment on the article, just the math that gets done when it goes to apply the enchantment to your character.

If, on the other hand, your cape permanently claims to only have a 33 feather effect (i.e., that's what it says in your inventory, not just what it says on your magical effects page), then I'm not sure what would have caused the problem. --Nephele^Talk 21:29, 4 June 2007 (EDT)
