Skyrim difficulty SUCKS

@Vasito:

First you need to understand what the difficulty settings do.

Every setting changes the amount of damage you cause vs the amount of damage you take.

 

Above adept difficulty, you need to be smarter in your approach.

You can't run at people with your giant axe raised like a barbarian.

Use a shield, block as much as you can, go in and out like a boxer.

When fighting multiple opponents, incapacitate some of them with a FusRoDah, use magical runes, run circles around them.

In the wilderness, keep your ethereal shout ready. Use it whenever a bear or a giant cat pounces. Of course it'll kill you in one shot. That's the way it's supposed to be.

 

As far as pre-fight strategy goes:

Put the majority of your points in health, heavy armor and blocking.

Enchant your armor to fortify health.

Use potions or the stoneflesh spell to give you a boost.

 

If you want some good mods:

-Enduring dragons: It just gives them more health, which means they'll win in a fight against a giant.

-Combat damage multiplier: makes weapons for the player AND the NPCs more powerful. It doesn't make the game any easier or harder, but it makes every move very important because one missed strike can mean life or death.

-The blocking part of "Deadly Combat": makes shields more effective.

 

Sorry to hear you're not enjoying your experience. I'm absolutely loving Skyrim on adept difficulty with these few tweaks.
