iansutton91 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I'm at level 16 and I think I've killed around 8 so far. The hardest one was a Frost Dragon. Luckily, I was near a Stormcloak camp. Once the dragon killed all of them though, I was back to square one. It took a while to finally dispatch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignoral Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 The only thing that really poses me any threat are those dragon priests that drop the special masks and the dragons themselves. Stealth is really broken in this game with about 80% of the stealth tree and a mix between the thieves guild, brotherhood and Nocturnal sets. I can walk right up to the Draugs without them waking, then hit them once with a dagger for a 30x multiplier thanks to the Dark Brotherhood gauntlets. Starting to feel like a thief/assassin character is OP. :psyduck: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolves425 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I found out that the best way to kill dragons was to get them on the ground. then attack as much as possible with a sword. using shouts of them too, or shouts that gives bonuses on me. in the 2nd hand I keep a decent restoration spell. just in case when I lose lots of hit points from the dragon attacks while I try to kill it or is in the air. some dragons is harder then others. save before you try to kill it and find the best way for you to kill it. Besides it wouldnt be fun if they were all easy to kill :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueChaoS Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I'm actually considering further buffing dragons when the CK is released, or nerfing other creatures, so there is a much more noticable difficulty gap between dragons and, for example, bears or trolls. As they are, dragons are merely tedious to kill due to the fact that they take a long time to kill on higher difficulties, and if you are skilled at using cover, they aren't really dangerous.

As they are, dragons are merely tedious to kill due to the fact that they take a long time to kill on higher difficulties, and if you are skilled at using cover, they aren't really dangerous. You're the dragonborn, not bearborn. So you kill dragons easy but bears will munch on your dragonballs. Seriously though, the thing I have to watch out are Bandit Chiefs/Plunderers armed with nasty two-handers. I play on expert and those guys; 1 shotted my follower, 1 shotted me (several times, with an unavoidable finisher and I play a tank.) I get their damage, but NPC being able to finish the player is propably a bug or dev oversight just like the giants' falcon mammmoth-boned super smash attack, (which is ironically blockable.) Also, I find that the dragons should occasionally land even without being damaged, as I play melee and it takes forever to bow them down with my miserable archery skill, once they come down I just charge at them and they fall.
