Solo-playing too and never had a huge problem recovering my stuff... just annoyingly long runs but well...

And fyi, you won't lose any more skills when you die right after a death.

If it really bothers you that much just turn on the dev commands and give yourself god mode until it's over.

The thing is, in this particular case, there's a Draugr literally within six feet of my respawn point. Respawn in your skivvies, get killed before you can take a step, rinse, repeat. I've got no interest in cheating, but in this case, I figure I've got to make an exception. No way I'm starting from scratch on another world, playing for hours just to gear up and go reclaim my base.
