Are staffs in skyrim worth it sell them or use them?

staffs are worth it if you get the right ones, Personally, I don't like using staffs so I give the good ones to lydia, who will use the staves very effectively. Normally I give her an Ice bolt staff, which you get off a dead mage near winterhold (she will snipe people with it for 25 ice spike damage, its so OP) and I also give the staff of fireball off of the dragon priest at shearpoint (she is much too OP with that too) and also a staff of resurrection (she will at random times resurrect a dead body to fight, you cna also give her staff of the familiar to summon a familiar likewise) and of course your companion/follower never uses any of the charge on the staff. Staffs are worth it to use in the beginning of the game, but good staffs come later in the game and by then if you go mage build, you will already be much more powerful. So hike em' on a follower and watch their value in combat skyrocket! x'D My Lydia normally hold the ice staff on left hands, orcish sword on right, and pulls out the resurrect staff and firebolt ones at random times, In bandit encounters, she kills them all before I can get to them D:<

The werewolf totems in skyrim do nothing when I howl Am I doing something wrong Is the game glitched?

Once you activate one of the Totems of Hircine in the Underforge, you should gain a power that can be activated the same way you would use a shout. Make sure you have it selected in your magic menu and then push your powers button.

Also note that Totem of the Hunt gives Detect Life. And if there is nothing around it may not look like anything is happening. Also, Totem of Fear causes the fear effect on enemies, but up to a certain level. If there are no enemies around or their level is too high, it won't do anything.

You can test if things are working by using Totem of Brotherhood to summon two wolf spirits as this one should always work.

The crossbow was a more effective weapon than the normal bow because?

Specificaly to the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim:

Crossbows are useful in several ways. They don't affect walking speed, shoot faster arrows and have a higher base damage, all useful when hunting vampires. They can also be used in combination with element infused arrows that inflict frost, flame or lightning damage on the target. You don't have to wait for the bow to be drawn before shooting and thus can be ready to fire before entering battle. You have a higher chance to stagger the enemy across the board, both when they are hit by an arrow and when you bash them.

How can you replace an enchantment in skyrim for example you have a robe of minor destruction would you be able to change the enchantment to say restoration without destroying it?

No, you can't do that. You can only disenchant the item, you can't 'edit' it. You'd have to wait for one of the mages to stock a restoration robe, you could disenchant that and enchant a regular robe with it, but it might end up weaker unless you've got a high enchant skill.
