You know how leveling up skills like axe and long sword will give you a bonus for strength when you level up, right? Well, for some strange reason, that hasn't been happening for me for the bast couple of times I went up a level. I always manage to improve long sword and blunt weapon, both of which are among my major skills, as well as axe, which is one of my mior skills. I'll improve them a couple times by the time I reach a new level, and i should be getting a strength bonus of 4 or 5. Yet, when I level up, I'm not getting a single bonus for strength. Any ideas for why this is happening? Thanks.

If you have, you might want to ask Fable about it as I am no mod expert. Or, there is a possibility it is the Mournhold expansion, if you have that it might be the cause for this. I heard somewhere that the Mournhold expansion changes how your minor and major skills afffect your attributes, so check it out.

What's your current strength? If it's 100, you won't go any higher when you make levels. Not without the aid of a mod.

It's like, 98 or something. But I don't remember this happening with my Argonian, though in general her strengh isn't as high as my Nord's.

Perhaps it is a bug that Bethesda didn't find? I doubt and think it unlikely, but hey, there's always the chance. Check out the site and you might find a patch ot help you.

Try to do acrobactics, just keep jumping everywhere you go. It levels up fast and contributes to your stregnth.

if a stat is 95 or higher it typically will not allow any more bonuses and for the next five points u gotta do it one at a time each level up

IIRC if you have a stat drained like from a disease, you have to get that cured and remove all your buffs then reapply them before you can level a stat.
