Have you considered raising offensive skills?

And wearing armour?


Just an idea. peace

How can you complain about dragons?

I can't recall the last time I didn't three hit a dragon...

Dragons are pretty easy, especially if you have conjuration. I get my companion, his demon, and my conjured atronich to fight for me while I shoot a few arrows and hide behind cover.

You guys killing them so quickly, what difficulty do you have it set to?

I am one notch from the top, I think it's expert.

lvl 51 dual wielding. 100 Light armor, 94 one handed...


I'm also 100 smithing and improved the crap out of my nightngale armor, and use a sword from 'the blades' and the dragonbane. I think they are rated around 120 or so damage each, plus enchantments.

Tempered I am assuming with decked out enhancements to smithing... Armor rating should be 500+ (guessing as I don't use that armor, I stick with the nightngale for fighting)?


What is your fire resist?

With Ancients (expert mode) once I get them on the ground, I might loose about 25% health and use about 25-25% of my endurance on Ancients...

What other details are you leaving out? Are you one or two handed, using a shield, dual wielding, or just a straight up mage with the ancient shrouded robes? If fighter class and using light armor, what's your light armor skill at? Combat perks?

I played on the highest difficulty and one shot every dragon I saw.

That game is for babies.

Yeah, I maxed out BS and conjuration first...by time I had light armor to 50 and one hand to 50 I was getting spawns that I couldnt beat because of my level was higher than my offensive/defensive skills. Ive tried dualsummons and then run around but first frost breath from the ancient dragon and Im goner.

Nonsense - Blacksmithing is the first thing you should max out, it's where 75% of your leveling comes from before you hit level 20... By the time you kill Alduin you should have blacksmithing maxed.

I just think something else is askew. Not looking to brag but hate to hear people not enjoying the game. Just trying to help is all.

I'm on max difficulty and i get two shotted by dragons, but i have no magic resists except an amulet. Waiting to get 100 enchantment before I do anything to my dragon bone armor, which is stupid because i could probably make yet another set already. I quit for a bit though, right before level 50 andright before 100 enchant and conjuration.

True if you up the difficulty level you need to pump more points into health and have great armor

I didn't do crap with blacksmithing.

I didn't do crap with alchemy.

I didn't do crap with enchantment.

I played awhile on 'normal' and then up'd it to 'expert' and that's how I've probably played the last 25 hours of the game.

I just went pure mage destruction/conjuration.

I put maybe 2 or 3 levels into health. All other points I put into magic.

I got bored with the side quests about level 38 and finally followed the main quest line. It was easy. coffee

I didn't do any blacksmithing enchanting. I didn't really do magic, just bows.

and I got the elf companion who can train you to 50 in bows.... upped it to 50 asap. boom nothing can stop me!

Health is my primary attribute. Nothing else can kill me except dragons and quest monsters.

I don't consider this a problem, I just view it as a need for strategy. I bet if I upped my ice resistance I would be more than fine.

Large rocks or buildings offer the best resistance bonuses. Its almost as if they offer 100%!

I love the game but get annoyed at the number of quests that are bugged. Wished I had the PC version because I also some how lost a dragon priest mask and can't get the 9th one due to that..

level 59 on one avatar, and 44 on another.
