NAPALM13092 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 (edited) I had a dragon steal my horse.... I had dismounted to fight the dragon and it swooped down, grabbed my horse, and flew off dropping the horse to its death on a riverbank about 300 yards away without even attacking me. Never came back just trolled me and flew off. Edit: My avatar picture at the time I posted this is pretty much my expression as I stood in the road for a good 45secs trying to make sense of what just happened.

Vagrant0 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 It happens, like all other special kill stuffs, it's just fairly rare and even more so when most everything else is stronger than the dragons. It's most likely to happen when you get Elder and Ancient dragons with fairly weak NPCs (like bandits, guards), or during some of the main quest sections where the NPCs are at a fixed level. As for the crash landing, that can happen anywhere, and does seem to deform the terrain temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CasperTheLich Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 i've killed like 60 dragons with my first char. about 20 or so crash landed, about 30 or so died because they landed for a quick snack (2 ebony or daedric swords can be quite mean), the other 10 or so were dragonrended (so i guess they crashed too). i'd say maybe 15 or so either landed chomped on and tossed stuff (including me), grabbed using their talons and wooshed off, or once i think i saw one eat someone. he, she, it landed... picked up a guard with its teeth, then sort of chomped on him (ala jurrassic park or sharkweek), and i think just... well, finished him in one last big bite. twas at a distance when this occurred. and it only happened once. so i could have missed the toss. however, in retrospect i think the dragon regained some health.oh, and the dragons shouting, i think i've seen an ancient use frost then switch to fire once or twice. if that counts.

ShadowscaleB1980 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I have seen it happen a few times, and the first time it was actually rather convenient. It happened to a Marauder that was firing arrows at me and it was picked up by a dragon. I have seen Dragons dining on Stormcloaks since I sided with the imperials I didn't see any reason to try and help them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sepherose Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 At one point I had a bounty in The Rift. I was on foot traveling to Riften and a guard stopped me about 200 feet from the gate. He begins to tell me that I have to pay a fine or go to jail, well, he didn't get to finish that. An Ancient Dragon swooped down and grabbed him, flying away over the tree tops and disappearing. I was a bit confused. :psyduck: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides they must think Humans are tasty...I knew there was an added bonus to being a kajiit.:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
