Dragon Slaying in Skyrim
By wubb 1 Comments
So I've really been sucked in to Skyrim and my dude is slinging magic fire like a champ. If anything the game still seems a bit easy on default, but I'm loving it and have decided not to up the difficulty, at least so far.
The best perk I have is the one that staggers most enemies with a dual wielded destruction spell. I can take out most any single large enemy by constantly hitting him with dual firebolt. The momentary stumble gives me enough time to launch another double firebolt. Rinse, repeat, dead. A few of the toughest enemies recover quickly enough to get off an attack here and there, but I'm able to swap to Fast Healing for a quick shot in the arm. Even dragons go down pretty quickly with this method. I guess I've just fought 6 or 7 of the weakest dragons to this point, but I'm semi-surprised I'm dominating them at level 14/15.
I love the flexibility you can have in handling different encounters. In one dungeon a few necromancers were fighting some other enemies and I decided to try setting a fire rune right in the middle of them. The explosion sent them flying. :)
