A:Either you have already had five training sessions for your level(the maximum), they are a medium trainer and your skill is below 40, they are a low level trainer and your skill is above 40, you don't have enough money, or they are in the fighters guild in which you'll have to join. Q:Whats the difference between a low level trainer and a medium level trainer? A:The low level trainers can only train you until your skill is at 40.Medium level trainers can train you when your skill is between 41and 70.After 70 you need a master trainer. Q:The trainer/skill book is in the Arcane University and I can't reach them,how do I? A:You have to join the Mages guild and do all the recommendation quest for each city(except the Imperial City) to get access to them. Q.I read a skill book but it didn't raise my skill, why? A.Either you've already read it or your skill is at master. Q.I tried to dupe an item but it didn't work, why?
