Neil, Poncho is correct in that I meant dremora lords. So if you lure him out of that room he is not magic resistant/immune? It would make sense to have a way for a true destro only mage to be able to kill Orchendor....but hey this is a Beth game ;) |

I don't know why, I didn't even think of "Dremora Lords"... Maybe because I haven't been able to use them at all for quite a while. I can't even use the "Sanguine Rose" even though I have it. Every time I try, it's good for an instant CTD. Guess I forgot they're even summonable, 'cuz I never seem to get Conjuration much past flame atronachs. Anyway, Orchendor... Last time I took him out, I believe I beat him to death with my bare hands and a fortify unarmed enchant on a pair of gloves. Here's the thing... Orchendor can be quite powerful, even deadly, but... his main ability is that teleportation he uses. Magic is never going to work very well against him, but fortunately, you don't really need magic to bring him down. So... How you say? Well, you go down a set of stairs from a kind of narrow hallway to get to the entrance to the room where Orchendor spends all of his time. What you have to do is piss him off enough to make him follow you, whether you do him any harm or not. I usually hit him with a medium spell or two, like lightning bolt or even firebolt. Once he starts following you, lead him up that flight of stairs and into that narrow hallway to the point where it makes a little zig zag. Once he's beyond that zig zag, he can no longer teleport out. He still has his immunity and resistance to magic, so you need an alternative... unarmed will work (as I did), so will a dagger (dual weild is great). Lydia or some other companions are quite capable of killing him once he can't get away, so if they are along you can stand back and just heal them while you watch the fight. He'll still try to use his spells against you, but a shield bash or an unarmed power blow that staggers will break that up. Just make sure you have some magic resistance yourself (he favors Frost or Lightning spells) and a few good healing potions so you can last long enough. Sah taught me this the first time around (credit where it's due, eh?), but she used Lydia or a companion, and I never do, so I do things a little differently.

R.I.P A'Darien ( C )... LvL 7 8 hr's played.. Ring of Hircine is the only thing he had. Not sure which did him in.. an Arrow to the back of the head.. from the Watchtower guard that would not let him back in or the Dragon fire that he was trying to back away from. Richard Starting again... Arieal Keri ( C ) Breton Fem Expert Skills: Conjuration 1h Alteration Enchanting Illusion Sneak Left for Dead ( Started on Solsteim ) Now LvL 2 2 hr's played.. in RavenRock. |

Bummer, Areial.. It was Mirmulnir I take it? Those guards at the watchtower are truly a hazard... |

I no longer go in the Watchtower for that very reason. Once in a while I go in and maneuver the guard that spawns in there to stand in the doorway, muahahahaha! That'll teach him to skip strategy class for dragon fighting!!! |

Sorry to hear about A'Darien. Good luck with Keri! I'm waiting on starting the Main Quest until Brynhildr has more Frostfall cold endurance. She'd never survive the trip up to High Hrothgar right now. Brynhildr is currently level 13, and she has Wabbajack, the Savior's Hide, and Azura's Star (Black). She also has several books. She has invitations from Clavicus Vile, Meridia, and Peryite. |

Managed to get some play time in tonight, but stopped after a while*. Finished a Daedra's Best Friend, and picked up the annoying golf ball. I'll post some starts tomorrow. *The missus started watching Stranger Things on Netflix and dammit if it didn't suck me in. |

Got "Discerning the transmundane" started and I'm halfway through it. After that, I have 3 more missions. The real grinding is gonna be after the books. And unfortunately, I won't be able to play today (since it's past midnight). If I am able, it'll be at night. I hope everyone is having fun with the competition. I wish you all the best of luck! :) |

Good Luck guys! I to got a bit of play time in.. Keri made it to Whiterun ( carriage ) and is atm just outside BFB, having finished it.. We may have an issue.. "Fury" is not working and while not central to her strategy, it IS a back up for places with many baddies! Having another issue, but it's "visual" and doesn't effect game play at all.. Her Staff's of Ice storm ( gotten from some Goblins..aka Relkings) show as held even though they are not, as long as I remember staff in left hand, pick-axe in right.. we are good to go. Their are many.. many.. Illusion spell's from Grimiore, I will just have to find one that is similar or has an effect I can use almost the same way. I'll get stat's and a vid up tomorrow.. the vid show's Fury not working.. |

Quick update, and a worry... Brynhildr is at level 15, about 23 hours. She has 3 artifacts and 7 books. The worry: I've got a glitch that relates to the Alternate Start. Brynhildr recently visited Helgen, and the MQ launched. Unfortunately, when she went to Whiterun to tell the Jarl, the Whiterun gate was locked and there was no guard to open it. I retried several times from my most recent saves, and couldn't get Whiterun to run correctly, so I opened the gate with the console. The scene at Dragonreach played out correctly, but it looks like some of the NPC packages aren't working correctly, because the townspeople are mostly still in their houses, in the middle of the day. I'm hoping that if I leave Whiterun and return later, things will straighten out. If not, I'm going to have to lose a lot of hours reverting back to a much earlier save, and there's no guarantee that the glitch won't recur. |
