Hi FreeWitch Well.....Adella is snookered ! Went into BFB at Level 18 AR200 Lots of Restless....can't go toe to toe....so left the ones after scythe trap 1. Got to the snow covered ramps area under the vent shaft Found a Frost troll.....Adella has nothing that will kill him and one swipe takes 80% off her. Wasted all our good paralyse poisons made from canis root painstakingly gathered in the Rift cos we can't do Lakeview yet. But the paralyse oddly would not work on the troll.....some glitch crap....they normally do work. So She is stuck between a passage full of Restless Draugr one side and a frost troll the other. And...no we cant just run past the troll cos the short passage then brings us to another Restless guarding the inner sanctum and we don't want to face him with a frost troll coming up behind. We did try to get the troll the other side of the gate with the pull chain where he could be trapped safely away....but he wont fit through the doorway....just bloody great.....Ive wasted nearly a quarter of our time and not got one shout or damn dragon yet. This is not going well...... Adella is furious with me for cocking it up, and my patience is running out. My only option looks like somehow getting past the draugr passage and leaving BFB the way we came in....without the damn Dragonstone. Then do Knifepoint Ridge and get Lakeview anyway, and hire a good merc to help out. I even bought us a Flame Atronach (yes Glargg/Bram I did) but you might as well use a bloody candle at this level. I am not happy.....and Adella is definitely not happy......only the Damn Frostroll is happy :( Edited by Rick, Jul 30 2016, 12:11 PM.

FreeWitch, I hope you get some play time soon! Rick, difficulty level doesn’t change the damage dealt or received by your summons, only your character. Also if memory serves you can cast them through gates. Good luck! Jonna wasted a bunch of time bringing three recruits to Delphine only to have Esbern tell her he didn’t know where any dragons were right now, but at least her game really fits the Dragonguard theme! :D I think she’s going barrow diving to get some more dragon priest masks. She got one yesterday and loved it. Smashing mages is her favorite thing. She’s still not ready to run up and smash dragons. :O Also she has fought a frost dragon and an elder dragon. They are beautiful! |

Mr. Grits had to work today, so Jonna went to the Throat of the World and met Paarthurnax. She's at the front door of Geirmund's Hall now for a quick peek before she heads to Winterhold. Somehow Forbidden Legend got fouled up when the notes didn't spawn with the dead Dunmer, so hopefully it will straighten out from some kind of clue in here. I guess we'll see. |

Abel has triumphed at The Summit of Apocrypha. He's soon to return to Skyrim to see if any Dragon Lairs have respawned and wrap up some side quests. |

I don't think anything triggers in Geirmunds hall, sadly. I actually went there at the same point in the MQ and nothing ever popped up for Forbidden Legend. :/ |

Kane, How many dragons DO you get by doing the Solsteim thing. I have to decide if it's worth the risk,,let alone the time. Not having done Solsteim in the three years I have had the dlc ( really) I am not confident about going there....so....is it worth it? I certainly would not go for say five lizards....probably not eight either...maybe fifteen! |

Areial, is that the answer to my Question to Kane? I got her ladyship out of the mire and mired my pants in the process! Basically I had to get her back through the narrow passage with all the upright draugr cavities in BFB.....and they were all milling around brandishing battleaxes and the like. Thankfully the scythe trap was still deactivated, but once she passed through to the burial chambers it switched back on chopping up three following draugr. I then ran her to Whiterun and hired Jenassa.....spent a fortune on elven armour for her and smithed it up. We then returned to BFB and killed the last draugr upto the frost troll. He was a real pig to kill.....she went toe to toe and Adella shot at him.....it was case of trying to hurt him faster than he healed. Once defeated, the next restless was not too hard between us. But the BFB boss was now a Scourge Lord.....very nasty. Jenassa was constantly dropping to her knee....it was a slow "wearing him down" battle. We prevailed....but it was pretty tough with all the foes out levelling our equipment levels. But that was nothing compared to.......Moss Mother Cavern ( for Runil's journal)...easy coin....I thought....damn those Spriggans! I used a megaton of health potions in there and poor old Valdr spent most of it shuffling along on his knees. Mirmulnir was a Frost Dragon this time....took seemingly ages to kill used over 60 arrows....even though Jen and Irileth did most of it. Three guards bought the farm. Back in he city, I dismissed Jen and took on Lyds. Well Adella is now level 22 after about 17 hours Took Ancients Ascent Came out late at night straight into a couple of vampires! We had to leave Lyds to it and leg it......they should have given us a 'disengage' command. Well, she cought up in the pub in Falkers. Smithing skill is still the problem....at only 46, I just can't make the armour good enough (AR220 incl Lords stone and a shield) I must have made fifty Dwarven bows already....thats nine grands worth of ingots...the bows were only worth five grand upon selling. It all turns around once smithing hits 60 and we can smith arcane gear.....but that is a long way off and the clock is ticking. Oh well......its fun....and has its rewards.....in a sense....like extreme dieting....or pulling one's own teeth out with pliers (j/k) Edited by Rick, Jul 30 2016, 09:14 PM.

The named dragons in Solstheim are misleading too. Three of the five get killed and absorbed by Miraak and not you. I was mainly after the masks and a few guranteed spawns.

Jolea Level = 17 Playtime = 31:15:19 Expert Difficulty Words of Power Learned = 22 for NADA .. just me keeping track of what I'm doing. Unlocked = 15 for 1500 Fully Unlocked = 4 (Unrelenting Force, Elemental Fury, Marked for Death, Become Ethereal) for 1200 points Dragons Killed = 9 for 900 points Named Dragons Killed = 3 (Mirmulnir, Sahloknir, Vuljotnaak) for 2700 points Dragon Priest Masks = 2 for 1000 points Edge of seat moments ~ In Volskygge going after the mask there when she's fighting an outlaw in front of her and I'm not paying attention to the two handed Orc that is smacking her in the back of the head :(. Totally my fault and is what happens when I play tired. I know better than to do this. Jolea did great. For a play style that I don't enjoy we had a really good time. She loved shouting Elemental Fury and smashing face with a mace and shield. If you were undead you got a silver sword instead. Once I got her some magic resistance it was pretty smoothing sailing for her. I found it rather freeing not worrying about magic, enchanting, alchemy or sneaking about. This girl just barged right in and went to work! RIP Jolea ... it was a fun run! And I'm sorry! So total points = 7,300 X 1.25 = 9125 total points. Edited by FreeWitch, Jul 31 2016, 12:35 PM.

Aw Freewitch honey....you were doing real good....so sorry to hear that ending! Good score though.... Ok...who wants to hear screams of frustration? I do not believe my stupidity..... Firstly.....you know how a couple of us were talking about MfD the other day....well. We found ourselves in Markarth and I thought an ideal opportunity to do a controlled retest the MfD effect on Nimhe. I did a save in her chamber (for reloading in the experiment) then we carried on and killed the bug. Then duh! Resaved with Nimhe dead over the prior save...Adella thought is was funny....I didn't... :( Secondly......and much worse.....after Markarth we went to Riften and a dragon attacked and so did a vampire...but ok...the guards helped a lot. I forgot to tell Dinya about helping Calcelmo...but I did a super load of potion trading...bought material etc and after more outside gathering and alchemy I got enough together to raise smithing to 70....that's glass....yay! I thought best to save it....but maybe after getting to Falkreath.....in Falkreath it was now late.....so lets go to Lakeview. Then decided at long last to build our long long awaited enchanter....I already accidently used the gold I had saved for this once before so now we are really wanting it. And btw....this is the potted version....it was a good couple of hours on all this....anyways.... Went to the bench....bugger! the glass is in the outside chest...go outside and get it...go back inside. At the bench.....bugger!.....ran out of nails.....ingots are all....you guessed it....outside. Made the nails....rushed back inside Screen Freeze! Thats an xbox360 impression of a CTD. I was so annoyed I bit my contoller....really! Adella was so annoyed she stomped around from one side of my skull to the other, smoking furiously for five full minutes. I can't repeat what she said...... Edited by Rick, Jul 31 2016, 04:25 PM.
