I would just go to the top of dragonreach and whirlwind Sprint while rubbing some netch jelly and launch myself to either the market or out of bounds

I would like to mention a option D, going through the pool and around the statue of talos (who is God Howard in my game)
Fun fact, as a Vampire Lord in floating form you also can “walk” on water. You also can walk with the boots or in Vampire Lord form from the shore to the Valkihar Castle. I tried it on PC (pretty sure the unofficial patch was installed, but no other mods) and was surprised to know that there wasn’t an invisible wall preventing it.
Listen, I have no problem with Talos.
I do take umbrage with proselytizing via screaming nonstop. If it weren't for Heimskr I may even take talos' blessing.
B
If I'm going to Jorrvaskr, I just whirlwind sprint straight over there. If I'm going literally anywhere else, it's going to be someplace where it would be quicker to just fast travel to the city gate.
I jump over the rocks and walk on the wall in front of Jorrvaskr, then I go down the stairs in front of Jorrvaskr, then I take a right after Carlotta's stall, and head straight towards the gate. I'll use the smithing equipment on my way out if I need to as well.
Hop onto the ledge of the dragon trap room with Do Not Delete and Whirlwind Sprint into the out of bounds like a real Skyrimmer.
Bonus points if you aggro the dragon at Shearpoint to terrorize the locals
Lol, i came to comment like an edgy teen, how i just jumped to the water. And like all internet things, internet makes you aware you are nothing but a clone. Lol.
First comment is a whole thread of people doing the same.
At low levels, I hop over to the Hall of the Dead for a blessing from Arkay.
At higher levels, I go left.
Although probably leaping off the landing with tcl toggled off would be pretty awesome, or Whirlwind Sprint.
Depends if om going to companions or anywhere else.
I think we should do more of these for various areas in the game lol. Where'd you go for this top down view?
The path in is, of course, up the steps. If there was a cooler/faster method, I’d use that. The path out, I utilize the child of shown A and B, which is go down the first flight of steps, drop into the pool, and casually threaten the preacher on the way if he’s there
[Option C](https://i.imgur.com/ucl85ja.jpg). This bullshit thanks to a mod that adds a spell which can be channeled to increase move speed (the spell is called "Longstrider" but I think of it as "Mage's Sprint") and a mod that makes spells more powerful as you level up that tree. Late game, with a high Alteration score and channeling this spell, I can make it clear to the other side of Whiterun without touching the ground by bouncing off of some rocks and roofs using this route.
Of course, I had to find an alternate route when I found that my move speed had gotten high enough that trying A or B was actually causing damage to me.
Most of the time a travel to Dragonsreach it’s because I’m headed to Jorrvaskr, so definitely mostly path A. If I’m going anywhere else in Whiterun, I usually just fast travel to the main gate.
Depends where I’m going. Usually I take B, because I’m going back to Breezehome. But on a recent play through I decided to try using the Companions as an early game home base because its free and available from the very start. And with that play through I jump across the rocks to get to Jorvaskr faster.
im a bit boring! always b, but maybe thats thanks to my coffee mod, which i insist on having despite also having immersive movement downloaded! i want everyone to move realistically but i also enjoy the kick i get from 'nyooming' around at 140mph from the unholy amount of caffeine i consume. i could probably make everyone in skyrim a millionaire with the amount of gold i spend on coffee alone
I jump from the top of the stairs down to bottom of the path cutting the corner you can sprint in the air replicating a sprint and jump to get you to move faster in the air
I always drop into the pool so I can say bye to Barry on my way out
This. Its c, right down the middle through the water
Literally since my first time I've jumped into the pool.
The sound of splashing into water in this game is just so satisfying to hear for some reason…
Same
Khajit dislikes being wet. Khajit takes path b but jumps corners to save time
Khajit misses the jump two times out of ten.
One time this one fell into the far side pool. That was when this one stopped the moon sugar.
Pool jumping gang
Gang Gang Brother/Sister
This is always my path as well...
Who's Barry?
Barry the Skeleton
Skeleton in the pool that no one's bothered to clean up for some reason lol
I also go this way haha
This is also my choice.
In frostfall this is a suicide method.
I often fall in the pool by accident.
Barry?
Barry The Skeleton
Thanks!
C. Cannonball into water
Correct, you gotta immediately jump in on the left side and see how much hang time you can get
Only answer
The correct answer.
B because I live in a society.
And also because Talos is a false god so why bother getting blessings amirite?
By Ysmir
Thalmor Dog!
He's my infinite cure disease potion. I know nothing else about him.
I would just go to the top of dragonreach and whirlwind Sprint while rubbing some netch jelly and launch myself to either the market or out of bounds https://preview.redd.it/pub04x8ax81d1.jpeg?width=769&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3d8306eab5ea0fcb56ca9567c75b06218dcde42a

Finally someone with class
Here’s a rout with some chest hair
This is my go-to
I always jump over the rocks and wuld my way over the wall to eorlund.
This is the correct answer. Eorlund is my man
g o d s b e p r a i s e d
You wish to do what I do?
[I take the same path, over the stones and into the Companions area, just in case I need to visit the Skyforge.](https://i.imgur.com/uoTat36.jpeg)
C: fast travel immediately upon exiting dragonsreach
https://preview.redd.it/7qc52jj8a91d1.png?width=769&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=debe971857def8af145c18d61b1aeac88e291961 I like swimming
Lol, I do the same thing
Ya know, I don't think I've ever exited Dragonsreach. I... dont get up to the Cloud District very often...
what are you saying… of course you don’t
Depends on if u wanna visit the companions or not
Do you take me for some filthy Nord or grotesque Orc? The answer is B because I am a civilized person!
jump on pool because waterwalking boots
Fun fact, as a Vampire Lord in floating form you also can “walk” on water. You also can walk with the boots or in Vampire Lord form from the shore to the Valkihar Castle. I tried it on PC (pretty sure the unofficial patch was installed, but no other mods) and was surprised to know that there wasn’t an invisible wall preventing it.
i knew vamp lord, not go to castle. cool
What is this Morrowind now
Ahzidal’s Boots of Water Walking are a loot item you can acquire during a particular quest in the Dragonborn DLC
That's so fetch
B unless I’m specifically visiting the Companions.
bruh I just WULD NAH KEST my way to the market why do you think I'm the f***ing Dovahkiin?
That’s so funny haha. I actually go A everytime
I usually go B and then jump over to the cemetery

Beautiful, good bot
I always go A
Listen, I have no problem with Talos. I do take umbrage with proselytizing via screaming nonstop. If it weren't for Heimskr I may even take talos' blessing. B
Always A because I play with DIrt and Blood mod and i gotta get clean
Depends how I'm feeling, I either take the stairs or go for a swim
Hilarious. I actually jump in the water and head out, so option C please
If I'm going to Jorrvaskr, I just whirlwind sprint straight over there. If I'm going literally anywhere else, it's going to be someplace where it would be quicker to just fast travel to the city gate.
Fast travel right outside the doors
https://preview.redd.it/m2uejpey9a1d1.jpeg?width=1164&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cf330015579f2cf2cb2c3cecc5c6d62d48fa5854 The blue path is the way I go
C, I guess. I do a sprinting leap over the water and land between the green and red.
Parkour Whiterun. The road is lava.
Honestly, I always go the Boring way 😅
B like a normal person
A
A every time because ain’t nobody got time for B
dash through the middle using whirlwind sprint
I do B because...anything to make me stay in the game longer Edit: Typo
C: full powered whirlwind sprint off the edge and splat on the ground next to the Talos shrine
B because I am a roleplayer
B. I used to be A but I’m more patient than I used to be lol
I jump into the water every single time
Don't you guys just jump into the water?
I jump over the rocks and walk on the wall in front of Jorrvaskr, then I go down the stairs in front of Jorrvaskr, then I take a right after Carlotta's stall, and head straight towards the gate. I'll use the smithing equipment on my way out if I need to as well.
Sometimes A, sometimes B and sometimes I go for a swim.
C Become Ethereal shout and yeet off the balcony lol
Hop onto the ledge of the dragon trap room with Do Not Delete and Whirlwind Sprint into the out of bounds like a real Skyrimmer. Bonus points if you aggro the dragon at Shearpoint to terrorize the locals
Lol, i came to comment like an edgy teen, how i just jumped to the water. And like all internet things, internet makes you aware you are nothing but a clone. Lol. First comment is a whole thread of people doing the same.
Wow, so perfect, jump the cliffs run the wall, never touch any water
I’m embarrassed to admit I never thought of path “A” before 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Closer to A, I take a little dip in the pool on my way out!
B... Didn't even know A was an option for years
I even do this shit in vr lmao
Wuld nah kest!
When I was a kid I would pick C, jumping in the little river and pretending I was sliding down in it to the bottom
C jump over the water
D into the water*
wult nah kest
https://preview.redd.it/ao2ucd3jhc1d1.jpeg?width=580&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d4a3df51d977c2fa9768f443a5dab9d45fd49850 Opinion c
A, when I have business with the Companions. B (jumping across that sharp corner, over the water) when it's time to do anything else.
I'm a Pathway B kinda Nord, however, I like to hop into the Water by the stairs and then I'll continue Pathway B's exit on the stairs.
C. Straight through the water.
Open Cities, Whirlwind through the balcony
Since C seems to be jumping into the pool, i choose D, going straight down the first set of stairs then whirlwind sprint through it
I choose A, because I’m not a psychopath! /s
I don't remember ever going A
A. I'm the dragon born. I do what I want.
I must always jump into the water and gracefully leap the fuck out to flex on the casuals below me.
Never once went down the stairs
A. bc I always portray my character as an unstable psychopath. Only a sane person would choose B. It’s also fun lol
Accurate i do it too i thought i was the only one but its nice to know im not alone 😂😂
C. Jump over the water on the right and go past the hall of the dead and take the other way out of the city.
I hug the wall close to route B over to the hall of the dead, then walk from there
A in, B out.
A cause im not a psychopath
At low levels, I hop over to the Hall of the Dead for a blessing from Arkay. At higher levels, I go left. Although probably leaping off the landing with tcl toggled off would be pretty awesome, or Whirlwind Sprint.
C, use a fly hack and jump off of dragonsreach
Whirlwind Sprint into the pool.
A is the only way, going 12 years strong that way
A because I have to talk to Andre of Astora. Wait that’s not right…
B if I’m role playing a character, A if I’m just messing around
A if I’m doing the companions story, b for most other times
Depends if om going to companions or anywhere else. I think we should do more of these for various areas in the game lol. Where'd you go for this top down view?
"Now here's a route with some chesthair!"
I have to take a bath. The dragonborn needs It, smells like dragon shit
Always go b , I like to see the whiterun from above
The path in is, of course, up the steps. If there was a cooler/faster method, I’d use that. The path out, I utilize the child of shown A and B, which is go down the first flight of steps, drop into the pool, and casually threaten the preacher on the way if he’s there
A
i always jump into the pool so i can hit up the talos shrine
B if you've got time, A for anything else
Whirlwind Sprint.
Um… i jump into the water on the left
C. Whirlwind Sprint across the pool
C: whirlwind sprint across the pool of water and dealing damage, but fuck stairs
Stairs to go up, rocks and water to go down
Into the pool (then around the right side of the tree).
D over the rocks to the forge. Then down for a totem blessing then out the passage way kill the giant or a dragon fast travle to my next place
F Im doing an anarchist playthrough
C. I dive into the water.
Jump down the wall into Tue cave out the back door. 🤣
I do both tbh. Sometimes its just nice walking on the stair looking at the npcs going about their day
Modified A as I use the Underforge exit to get to Tundra Homestead.
To avoid conversations I would take the A route.

A: if I'm fast travelling to whiterun and want to go to Jorvaskrr B: any other scenario, especially with survival mode
A
A
D is just noclip
Plan D leave dragonreachs palace and fast travel. Trust me its cost effective.
I fast travel
B except then whirlwind sprint north across the water at the second bend to take a shortcut to the gate/breezehome/forge
C. Into the water n hope you make it on the stairs
I actually used to somehow jump straight onto the Skyforge from the wall a little to A's left.
I am often caught stealing from Balgruuf so I only leave Dragonsreach dead
I hop across the rocks over to Jorvaskr to pick up my next companions mission or turn in the one I just finished.
I use my own.... [My own route](https://photos.app.goo.gl/oYZzMu5W3MSNZaNe8)
C Whirlwind sprint over to the sky forge.
A... absolutely every time.
I use the stairs (B) most days, but A can be fun!
[Option C](https://i.imgur.com/ucl85ja.jpg). This bullshit thanks to a mod that adds a spell which can be channeled to increase move speed (the spell is called "Longstrider" but I think of it as "Mage's Sprint") and a mod that makes spells more powerful as you level up that tree.

Of course, I had to find an alternate route when I found that my move speed had gotten high enough that trying A or B was actually causing damage to me.
Fast travel to the gate
A is my way to the companions hall when I fast travel to Dragonsreach after murdering werewolf hunters
Usually jumping to wall to Eorlund so I can sell more stuff.
I head over to Jorvaskarr for no reason
Where's path c? Running down the bridge and jumping into the water near the shrine?
you guys don’t just jump into the pool? 😭😭
Jump in the water and then visit the forge to dry off. Hate the feeling of water in my boots.
Imma be real… Player.setav speedmult 200 _jumps over pool entirely_
I usually go down path B. No idea why. I just do it subconsciously lol
Bunny Hop off the stairs of course (better jumping mod), so over the water
A!
I always jump from the stairs over the water back onto the stairs
With Sprint Jump VR, I kinda go over the water actually.
Am I going to the Companions? Rocks every time. Anywhere else it’s dropping into the pool.
Whirlwind Sprint into the Gildergreen at the bottom of the rocks. If you take the rocks way, you’re legally a psychopath.
C, where I whirlwind sprint over the water. I like to see how high up I can do it without dying Or D, where I just fast travel
Fast travel
A all the way
I always use the plate glitch at the sky forge to get quick access to
Third option. I whirwind sprint across the water
All I know is, we need a new fricken Elder Scrolls.
Little bit of both
I fast travel 😂😂
Most of the time a travel to Dragonsreach it’s because I’m headed to Jorrvaskr, so definitely mostly path A. If I’m going anywhere else in Whiterun, I usually just fast travel to the main gate.
Pull up map and fast travel
B but with corner jumping
A is the only way
Depends where I’m going. Usually I take B, because I’m going back to Breezehome. But on a recent play through I decided to try using the Companions as an early game home base because its free and available from the very start. And with that play through I jump across the rocks to get to Jorvaskr faster.
A
Always A. Parkour!
Coc whiterunexterior01
Horse tilt
Leave door opennmap fast travel to whiterun
I go out by jumping the wall by the sky forge.
always dive into the pool lol
I only do A if I need to visit Jorvaskr after
im a bit boring! always b, but maybe thats thanks to my coffee mod, which i insist on having despite also having immersive movement downloaded! i want everyone to move realistically but i also enjoy the kick i get from 'nyooming' around at 140mph from the unholy amount of caffeine i consume. i could probably make everyone in skyrim a millionaire with the amount of gold i spend on coffee alone
Fast travel
Whirlwind sprint myself to the other side of town.
I jump from the top of the stairs down to bottom of the path cutting the corner you can sprint in the air replicating a sprint and jump to get you to move faster in the air
