Oh cool, the forum is so festive.

I'm wondering why when I obliterate the Imperial camps, the camp's Legate is always unkillable. Has anyone else had trouble with this? I've been specifically told to obliterate the camps, so is it a bug and is there a way around it?

no bug, smoosh. i've finished the imperial quest and was told the same thing as you. but the stormcloak captain never dies. maybe you need the leader in case you replay the quest but on the other side

finally got that dragon but had to use sneeky tactics. must improve the bow and arrow thing.

no capital letters because kitty is asleep on my lap on my left arm and must not disturb her.

Yankee, I love your last sentence. wave12

To kill dragons I
Click to reveal..
Call my flame atronach. Then let my follower, currently Lydia, attack. Then whip out the bow and arrow. I also use whatever potion I can on it. I have had better luck against dragons since I took the point in archery that lets you zoom in and slow down time a bit. I have also found that I can't damage then unless they are already attacking someone else or when they flare to attack me. Course, when they are attacking me I have to use way too many potions to stay alive, so for me, getting them to attack someone else so I can attack from stealth works best. I think using a flame bow would also really help as there are no creatures immune to it I don't think.


Have fun!

Dragons:
Click to reveal..
Lightfoot around the area where dragon can land and where there are some places to hide behind. Then entice him to land - this takes awhile. Meanwhile when he snorts fire hide behind a barrier so the fire won't affect your health. When he's flying I use the bow and arrow but when he lands I get close(not too) and not directly in front and use magic/weapons. The most difficult part is getting him to land. And staying alive of course. [spoiler]

Hi all,
I'm doing town quests now. Have finished all the factions and am now just looking to find as many quests as possible before I resume the main quest. I just finished with the greybeards I think as far as the main quest goes.

Anyway in the process of hunting for quests I've found a talking dog who led me on a merry chase and I saw a headless horseman ghost. I followed the ghost for a long ways and then lost him. I'm just wondering if he is just an easter egg of sorts or if it is a quest that I lost because I lost him. Hmmm, think I'll google it.

Anyway this is the most fun I've had in a game since Witcher. I'll probably pick another character and play through once again when I finish with my high elf even though King Graham is waiting in the wings impatiently.

Hi again. Tonight I was in a Daedric mood so I've been doing the Daedric quests, but when it came to Boethiah, I'm having a problem. I found her shrine (sacellum) but no one is there and I haven't found a copy of the book that I need either. I'm not sure if this is just a bug or something, but I'd love to be able to do this quest and so I was wondering if you guys had trouble, and if you did, how you fixed it?

Thanks so much!
Tracy smile

Oldman: I've seen the headless horseman three times now, always in different places. I believe it is an Easter Egg, and I think he's leading us somewhere. I just finished a merry romp with my drinking buddy Sam.

Hi everyone! santa

I've come to join you in Skyrim. The game was supposed to be a Christmas present but last Friday I missed a step and broke a bone in my ankle. Since I now have to stay off my feet and can't do housework, my husband decided to give me the game early. So here I am in my cast which doesn't prevent me from sneaking and setting all Skyrim problems aright.

I'm playing as a thief/archer with one-handed as a backup. That's my favourite game style. I'm surprised that the wilderness isn't quite as dangerous as in Morrowind and Oblivion. I hardly run across any bad things while exploring. I had a hard time finding the difficulty level but when I found it it was at the midle difficulty level so I have just left it there for now. I'm really enjoying this.

Welcome, Rowan, and happy bone-mending.

I ran into a bug yesterday, in the "Revealing the Unseen" quest. If you leave the area without finishing the puzzle, when you return the puzzle is "frozen" and you won't be able to finish it. Sigh. Well, next time...

And werewolf unhappiness: after spending a whole night trying to avoid being killed, I returned to my human self only to have people sniff loudly and make comments about wet dogs.

Hey, Rowan, glad to see you here in Skyrim.

I was initially a bit put off by the lack of enemies in the wilderness, but I think they balanced everything nicely. All in all, I'm impressed. The map is much bigger than I'd originally thought, there are hundreds of places to explore, and I'm only just starting the main quest at level 37 (oops).

In fact, at level 37 I haven't even completed any of the guilds, having sneaked and archered my way up the levelling screen without really thinking ahead. Got sidetracked for two weeks, actually. You're playing the same character class as me, as usual, I see.

Rowan---I'm so sorry to hear about your broken ankle! frown But I guess the good news is that you'll get to play Skyrim to your heart's content now. smile
