Well This is the first time I've gotten this far so I thought I'd give you vets a progress report and see about getting any pointers. Let's see, storywise I've done all the jobs for sugarlips and I just took my first job as a blade. I've also cleaned out the smugglers, two or three ancestral tombs, and one other hole in the ground, taken the slave from Hla Oad to Ebonheart(followers are dumb), escorted the pilgrim to the fields of khumuu(sp?), found the tax collector in the beginning, did the whole love letter nonsense, and took care of the Nord for the legionaire guy(waiting till I'm better at combat for the bloodbath). I think that's about it as far as quests go. Oh and not once have I had a bounty on my head. Now for the info:

so far, so good. Just wait when you get to level 10. Leveling up is soooooo easy! It's so awesome!

That's what I've heard. I don't see how it could become so much easier, but I'll take everyone's word for it. Come to think of it I shoulda stayed in Ebonheart for a while after freeing that slave, but live and learn. It's quite a walk now, but I've got other things to occupy myself with for now.

If you have the expansons or GOTY edition, you will be on a whole new main quest. (wont ruin it for you) if you are not on it already. So, then you have 2 new worlds to explore. Plus, at that time (on my first character) I began how easy it could be to level up. The secret is to walk everywhere, and not on the main roads. If you don't you meet so many more enemies. And, to top it off, it is easier to hit your enemies since your weapon or magic skill goes up. That's pretty much it.

You're playing a stealth-oriented character so my advice is: get your sneak skill up. It's easy to do and IMHO a lot of fun.

Well Im in sneak mode almost 100% of the time when I'm in an unfamiliar building/cave so my sneak skill kinda goes up in spurts, otherwise it doesn't get used so much. If I'm just running around a city, which I have been for a while doing thieves guild quests my sneak skill does get used much, but when I'm out exploring which I was doing earlier en route to balmora and now that I'm in the dwemer ruins I'm using my sneak skill a lot. So I should be OK. Thanks. And I've played the game before... just didn't get very far so I learned back then that walking everywhere is definitely beneficial.
