Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Tips & Tricks

Take a large item and set it on a chair. Then, sit in the chair. You will launch the item across the room. Try this watermelons.

In the beginning of the Thieves Guild you need to steal a diary try killing her with your sword in the room where she finds the diary, and when she is unconscious. As she was getting up I pickpocketed her and got the diary.

Join the thieves guild and talk to any of the Fences. They have 100 picks at a clip. They restock often as well. (Nocturnal Shrine in particular)

When you steal items, most of the merchants will not buy them. Use the following trick to authenticate them. Get in the jail and escape. Take your items authenticated or pay for your days in jail and you will have the items authenticated again.

Wait near a place where there are more than one person sleeping. They will all get up at the same time and may switch beds with each other. They might even walk down to another floor or to the other side of the room just to go to another bed.

When you are in the mages guild you will get a quest to go check out the mages guild in Bruma. When you check it out it will be full of skeletons and they will gang up on you. so go out side and let the patrolling guards take care of them.

(This does not work on all items) if you attack with any weapon then pause the game try to unequip some arrows it will say (you cannot unequip while attacking) then drop any item and it will be duplicated by the number of arrows you have.

Upon purchasing the house in Skingrad, go to the top floor. In the room will be a deer mantle. Jump on top of the mantle, then jump again onto the loft design in the back corner. You will find an old note that has a riddle on it which leads to a treasure.

You can do this at any bed you can sleep in. First you click on any spell and keep using it which will increase the level of that skill and your real exp. Keep doing this and when you get low on mana sleep for 1 hour, which will refill your mana. This is easy for getting higher on the skills you want. (NOTE: Destruction spells won't work for this)

On the Main Quest, when you have to go to Dagon's Shrine you can become a member of the Mythic Dawn. At the first door in the cave, there is a Dunmer that will ask you if you want to join, say yes. He will take all your items, so either drop them before or kill him later. He will take you directly to the shrine, and present you before Mankar. Now he will ask you to prove yourself by killing a prisoner, do so and become an alcolyte. But after you take the Xarxes you are no longer one of them.
