3. Prowler's Profit - Skyrim
By completing certain side-quests in Skyrim, certain Perks can be attained. Depending on which Perk is unlocked, the Dragonborn can upgrade magical armour and weapons, pickpocket with ease, or dramatically boost dagger attacks.
Another highly desired Perk is the Prowler's Profit, making it easier to find money and valuable gems. Using this ability, our anonymous warrior can fill his wallet effortlessly, allowing them to buy anything they desire.
If only it were that simple. To reap the benefits of this Perk, the Dragonborn must locate the 24 Stones of Barenziah, which are strewn all across the map. After finding these mystical pebbles, a crown, and speaking to Vex, the Prowler's Profit will be up for grabs.
Just as players are about to go and plunder every cave and ruin, they'll realise... they already have. Players will be so far ahead in the main campaign by this point, they should have all the weapons and artefacts they need.
Had the Perk been available earlier, it would've been less tedious to scavenge for loot. But since it's found after the Dragonborn has more money than they can spend, the Prowler's Profit is basically worthless.
