Default Skyrim Top Tip


Everyone probably knows this already, but just in case not ...

You know you can 'favourite' things like spells or weapons by using Triangle
(or whatever the favourite option is on your game) when in the main inventory
or spell list screens.

Then, in game, you can use D-pad U and D-pad D to bring up favourites to
quickly switch.

But... The thing I found out tonight is, when the favourites menu quick pick
is open (DP-U), then you can

A) Hold DP-L and you get a little '1' next to the item.
B) Hold DP-R and you get a little '2' next to the item.

Then... You can use DP-L and DP-R to insta-switch between two things. Without
even bringing up the favourites menu.

I use it from switching between Heal and Summon, or Bow and Sword depending
what I'm doing.

It's great! Why don't they put this stuff in the manual?

Apparently, Oblivion, Fallout 3 and Fallout NV all had manuals too. I've
never looked.
