This is something in the game that I don't understand.  One would think -  in fact, logic would dictate - that If the devs are going to place in the game  uncommon enemies that have  their own brand of ammunition, that this ammunition would be, at the very least, comperable to the the lowest tier ammunition that your common, every day thug/bandit/hunter would use  (iron arrows), If not a couple of tiers higher.

But no.  These enemy's arrows, despite their rarety, do less than iron arrows, which  your character practically begins the game with.  lol  That's right.  Falmer Shadowmasters, ranked in the top 10 deadliest enemies in Skyrim, will  pepper you with Falmer arrows,  while the first, level 1 , Stormcloak/Imperial trash mob you meet in the game's tutorial will assault you with more powerful arrows.

Make sense to you?  yeah...  I don't get it either.

Makes total sense to me.  They don't have metalworking capability and are basically zombie level intelligence.  Plus their dungeons are deadly enough already with their poisons, mages and those &#(^ Chaurus.

I walk around like a stealthy tank. Nothing fazes me in full Heavy Daedric Plate at Level 81.

Yeah, I thought about that, but then I noticed that their  other weaponry  is actually pretty good.    Their swords, for example,  do more damage than Iron swords,  Ancient Nord swords, Steel swords and Orcish swords.

Ditto with Foresworn swords.

While its a good idea to fight to save your life its a BAD idea to shoot an angry orc in the ass.

Falmer and Forsworn weapons and armor are good for one thing:  increasing your speech skill with merchants.Image IPB

I still love seeing a little crowd gather if you kill a dragon in front of them.

Kind of a nod that you do the impossible every day.
I was talking to the Khajiit caravan and just had traded with them, only to turn around and kill a dragon in 30 seconds. To the Dragonborn, dragons are nothing more than fodder now .

The dragons do provide some hilarious amusement in this game. I was doing some dark brotherhood contracts, and was heading to do the one in Dawnstar to kill the woman working the smelter. When I got there, wouldn't you know it, a dragon spawned in there and used it's finishing move on my target.
I just shrugged and moved on to collect the bounty, while letting the guards struggle with the dragon.
Pretty sure the contract was the only one the dragon managed to kill too heh.

In my DB run, I killed both her, and her ex as he issued the contract. The surrounding mountains provided enough cover to move from site to site without being noticed.

But yeah; I spawn Dragons there frequently, too. It was getting bad enough that I would only Quicktravel to the Hideout, and then walk to Dawnstar if need be.

Dragons seem to spawn a lot near Winterhold for me.

I once had three dragon skeletons in the school at one time it got so bad.

Thanks for this. I've never seen that huge crab. Well, I guess I know what I'll be playing today.


You're welcome.  Even though this dude is already dead, and all you see is his carcass, it's still quite a sight to see.


"Quite a site to see," is the main reason I play and enjoy this game so much. :)

If you do the Kyne's blessing quest you can fight its spirit.

Argh, I hate those hired thugs on a low level. I started a new Khajiti thief, and of course I already have those three bastards after me. I'm toast. xD

I don't start new characters, so I don't have a problem with anything.

Back when my character was fresh though, THOSE GODDAMNED SABRE CATS.

Which is why I soul trap them and turn them into cheap amulets that I sell.

Hate those things.

Every time a bear, sabre cat, or anything jumps me, I'm like, "Haaaaa"

Sometimes I don't even bother fighting them. I'll try to sneak by or I'll just run up a mountain if I can.

Toss a firebolt at them and their carcasses will fly off the cliff.

I got a mod that made stuff like that not happen anymore.

Guards just flop over when shot not go FLYING.

Were you a double agent?

No; was forced into becoming a member of the DB; my first playthrough, my PC was drugged, kidnapped, and had no idea of the location, so I killed all of them for Astrid. When the person asking for a contract was as unsavory as the possible victim, I retaliated., and removed them, too.

The Emperor did not really even need to ask....

I really hope the rumor I heard about Fallout 4 being announced at E3 is true.

Some news on Dawnguard, AND maybe something new.
Obsidian is good and all...but Fallout 3 had more quality than New Vegas.

I'm willing to bet my copy of Skyrim that Bethesda will announce  *a lot* of information about Dawnguard at E3. That's practically a given.  The thing's supposed to come out  this summer.

Fallout 4, though? I'll go ahead and chalk that up to wishful thinking by the rumor-starters. There's a much better chance they're gonna flood us with Information about that silly Elder Scrolls MMO, instead.

I'm a total FO nut, but I'm more than willing to wait as long as it takes for 4. I DON'T WANT Zenimax/Bethesda cranking these things out like an EA commercial production line. FO4 will be ready when it's ready.

Skyrim's so damn good, it's got more than enough juice to tide me over until such time. Hell, I just started another New Vegas playthrough for goofs and am having way too much fun with it. Can't wait to get to Big Mountain again.

Don't even want to see FO4 for a while, truth be told.

Watch it be an MMO lulz.
