Skyrim Rampage Cap'n Yesterday |
1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Yesterday, while climbing mount Arthor or whatever it's called, and I notice these three goats are running just ahead of me. So, I'm all like "goats! You gotta get out of here, there's a f$*%ing Dragon on top of this mountain!" But of course, goats are stupid, so they lead me straight to the Dragon. Turns out, every dragon is a f$#%ing Blood Dragon now, so it's naturally a chaotic, pitched battle atop the mountain, me, running around, shooting arrows and summoning Flame Atronachs, and yet somehow, all three goats survive!
So, I decided to keep following the goats, over who knows how many mountain peaks (two) and suddenly, this cave bear jumps out and starts mauling the goats! Not even summoning a frost Atronach and wailing away with my Greatsword distracted the a%@~~*# from his goat mauling. The g@#**+n piece of s~!* killed two of the goats, and then, as the last living goat passes a tree a f%+@ing troll came out and killed it right in front of me!
Lessons learned, nature is hardcore, and all cave bears must die!
Rampageth!!!!

Does that mean that you're going back to the cave at Helgen and kill that one too?

No, that was just a bear. Not a f~*$ing piece of s&+* cave bear.
It's just as well, I guess. Not long after I got into a huge melee with 3 bandit highwaymen (kind of a redundant title...), two sabre cats, a giant frostvenom spider, and two trolls, and three wolves that joined in at the end.
I doubt the goats would've survived that.
Nature's hardcore man!

F$#~ing dragon south of Riften had a trap (one of those s~@#ty soul gem ice blastermajigs).
Alas, that was the only smart thing the dragon did. For some reason it decided melee combat was the way to go, which of course, with my Dwarven armor, enchanted ebony great sword, and predilection for summoning Frost Atronachs, is not the way to engage me.
I'll take that dragon soul, if you don't mind...

Those 3 goats get around. I've seen them in several places. Do note that goats and trolls are natural enemies if the stories of our youth are true!
For my part, I've seen a saber cat kill a rabbit, then get mauled by a cave bear. And if you haven't already, save the bear pelts. There's a woman who will give you a task to bring her 10 of them. She's at one of the mills, in one of the small towns. I believe not far from Riften, maybe Shor's Stone?

Ok Skyrim, WTH was that?
Nice frozen lake with some ruins on it. I got to take a look cause why not
Everything explodes around me I fall in icy cold water and by the time I pull myself out there is not one but TWO NAMED DRAGONS swooping around to Fire Breath me.
and to make things more fun these two buggers enjoy Smashing through the ice of the lake to try and Drown me
Seriously WTH Skyrim, WTH?!

That fight against Voslaarum and Naaslaarum (the dragons from the frozen lake) seems like it should be really epic and exciting except, every time I fight them, they get stuck flying in super slow motion. I can just stand there plinking arrows or lightning bolts at them until they suddenly drop out of the sky like ragdolls. It's like the dragons are experiencing lag, and it's kind of underwhelming. Anyone else get this glitch?

Went home for my Carnage Armor - Kind of a mix of Ebony and Deadric Enchanted for 2Hander damage.
Then back to the frozen lake. That was kind of a harsh fight. Dragonrended one down for go ol' Axe to the Face and the other Straffs me with fire.
Occasionally falling into a hole in the ice didn't help
But VICTORY IS MINE
My prize - 2nd word of Drain Vitality.
Now Onward through Falmer infested ice caves....Stop shooting me ya g!# d+!ned blind SOBs....As soon as I figure out how to get up there I am axing you in the face too.

I realized while stocking up on potions, I'd never been to Rorikstead!
So, I started at the Western Watchtower, where I was immediately attacked by a dragon! Yay! I'd been looking for soul to learn my new storm controlling shout.
Strolling along a while after that I notice a dragon circling a hilltop, so natch, I set off for it.
Well, well, well! It's our old friend Anduin! And he's resurrecting a playmate!
pulls out sword, readies his shout, and summons Frosty.
Yes! Let's play!

Thanks for the highways suggestion, it's actually been a ton of fun! Haven't found a way to increase my carrying capacity yet but I did buy 32 lock picks off this guy, and i've slightly lowered the population of ice trolls, ice wolves and saber cats.
Walked from the brewery all the way to the stormcloak city where apparently the KKK is taking root.
It's all fine if you want independence, but I'm not going help if you're going to be racist pricks about it.

Hag's End (or more specifically, the grounds outside) was a blast!
I went all ninja bowman on the chumps working the walls then summoned Frosty and pulled out my Ebony Flaming Greatsword (which I named Darkfire, cheesy I know!) And just waded in.
Forskins never knew what hit them! Towards the end, Frosty was chasing stragglers all over the grounds (as in they were literally trying to run away from it) while I cleaved the twits hiding in their tents. Then somehow, I found a secret little trail that let me sneak up on the Briarheart leader, where I hit him with a ice form and waited for the chump to get up where Frosty went all hulk vs Loki on him and started doing fist slams on his face.
That'll do Frosty, that'll do!

It turned out to be more endurance related. Dude loved his electroshock. And summoning s~*!. But he was a copy cat summoner and only summoned. What I summoned, so Frosty went back in the pocket and Flamey came out.
However, I didn't start to make headway until he discovered he'd let down his flank against a greater threat then myself.
Beware the Slaughterfish!! The true threat to undead dominance of Skyrim!!!!
That's right, dude spent five minutes, real time, blasting lightning at a pond of Slaughterfish as I slowly whittled him down with my Flaming Dwarven Bow. He didn't even turn around to look at me.
Alas, there was one Slaughterfish left flopping around the floor.
Rampageth!!!!

Started playing Skyrim again. Building up my character to try to take Bleak Falls Barrow. Any advice?
I know a couple of guys who are Min/Maxers, they focused on "beating the game" and then complain at me that the game was no fun.
So my advice is, Don't be like them. Don't worry about a "right way" or "beating it", just have fun and find your own style.
also avoid trolls for a while. They will F' you up in the early game.

So, take things slow and easy, and avoid being cornered? What about potions? I already know how to make several, and I've harvested enough food for restoring Health. I've got an armor value of 42, an ax, and Flames, Sparks, Raise Zombie, and a couple restoration spells. Anything else? Or it that it?
PS: Following advice given earlier, I've begun crafting items to get my smithing score up, and selling them for cash. I've also killed a few bandits and sold their stuff. I'll go back and raise them as Zombies to increase my Conjuring score, like I do with the dead animals I kill. *snicker*Zombie Rabbits. :)
