I ended up gaining 5 levels in the Fjords. I was 16 going in and 21 coming out. I don't have wisdom, so I'm guessing someone with wisdom might gain an extra level. I might have chosen xp bonuses as some of the quest rewards, I can't remember. It should make the Laiken run a breeze. I'm very weak to poison, but being 3-5 levels higher than the enemy should help

I've got a +75 damage to magic and another +30 so that adds 105 to each spell cast. Yay!!! Can anyone say overkill?
I knew you could.
P.S. Which is better, elder or legendary?
