[Karbuncle]

I've been attacked in Whiterun before, Just a normal dragon.

Get attacked at the College a lot too >_>, thought college isn't a walled city

[miokomioko]

Yeah, the college doesn't really count (you can actually base jump off the roof into the ocean if you aim just right). Whiterun, Solitude, Windhelm, Markarth, Riften, and maybe one other require loading screens to get inside and give you a false sense of security.

[Vagrant]

I've been attacked in both Riften and Whiterun in the past.

[Snick]

I think the worst NPC auto-banter for me is the little girl in Whiterun "I sell blahblah at the market with my mother..." I always manage to go by her and get her damn banter.

Nah, "I work with Belethor at the general goods store" is worse.

[Priran]

it's a nice day with you around <3

[Serra]

Got attacked by an Elder Dragon in Whiterun earlier this weekend -- beat it but saw all the dead NPCs and said fuck it, loaded my save, and quick traveled somewhere else.

How long did it take you to beat it without anyone dying?

1 or 2 reloads usually does it. I'm at a comfortable level of OP where if a dragon lands I can kill it with dual wield power attacks before it flies away.

i'm level 33 now on my main save, just hit 100 smithing and hit myself up with awesome dragon armor... only to notice i havent killed a dragon in 13 levels. What the fuck?

Progress more in the main storyline missions. I had the same problem where I didn't progress past meeting the guys up that mountain once to get a couple shouts from them, and that was it (I think 5 into main quests?). Went 30+ levels and found ~150 places all over the map without seeing a single dragon besides the first couple, did a few more of those missions and then dragons everywhere.

[Esvedium]

I did the same on my first character, got ~5 quests in on the main story, saw only the occasional dragon. After getting a few more quests done, dragons everywhere.

I got attacked by one in Falkreath a while back and while trying to scramble and get its attention on me, a lifeless body landed at my feet. I looked down and it was Sven. I thought *hmm* for a second... then continued fighting.

After getting a few more quests done, dragons everywhere.

Obviously the first dragon fight in Whiterun triggers them to appear at all... but there's one definitive event that ramps up the encounter rate, big time.

Spoiler: show

When you encounter Alduin resurrecting the dragon from its burial ground.

[Yuri-G]

Spoiler: show

is that when you're hanging with that blades chick? I saw a dragon getting resurrected by another dragon as part of her quest, no idea that was Alduin though.

[Priran]

There's actually a ton of those dragon burial mounds that open up as the story progresses. If you visit specific ones at specific points you can see Alduin resurrect them, too.

[Esvedium]

Spoiler: show

I got to the point where he res's the dragon from the burial mound on a second character, I saw that it was Alduin, fired off a few spells, didn't do anything to him.

There are definitely a lot more dragons in the world after that point.

[Gwynplaine]

Yeah and frankly I'm sick of dragons on my game. It's basically a prevents-you-from-fast-travel-for-a-while event. Until the stupid thing finally lands to kill it. I don't even take the bones/scales anymore its too annoying gaining all that weight.

[Serra]

Speaking of carrying capacity, what spread to you guys do for your magic, health, and stamina? I remember I was only upgrading stamina for a while at first, but haven't put anything into it since I got it up to 180. Magic's also been on the back burner ever since I got the second restoration perk that lets my magic regenerate faster.

[Yuri-G]

depends on how you're playing. I was straight destruction mage so it was around 70/30 in favor of MP... no reason for stamina, and very little for HP since I rarely got hit.

Currently 380 hp, 300 mp, and 250 stamina, or something like that. But since i now have absorb stamina daggers, i'm probably going to get rid of some stamina, since i don't really need that much, and can use power attacks nonstop anyway.

[TT]

So is 29% the best smithing/alchemy enchantment you can put on armors? Cause I'm at 100 enchant, smith, alchemy with all the right perks on it just doesn't seem right. Also does the Notched Pickaxe do anything? I've noticed nothing.

[Psion]

If your annoyed with the dragon keeping you from fast travel, you can always just open the console, click the dragon, and type kill. :D
