LTK:
Is everyone done with this game already? I killed my first dragon yesterday! I stood on top of the watchtower and riddled it with arrows while it was on the ground roasting the Whiterun guards, then walked down to finish it off with a few blows of the Ancient Nord Battleaxe of Cold. I freaking love that thing. Caused me to invest heavily in Stamina so that I can use more power attacks.

I'm occasionally surprised by how much tactical depth there is to combat. Before arriving in Whiterun I made a stop at High Hrothgar (took a detour circling around the Throat of the World), and found a Frost Troll on the way up. I had no chance of going toe-to-toe with it, so I tipped an arrow with a paralysis potion 3 I picked up somewhere, which knocked him out for seven seconds. That was enough time to give him a good clobbering with the axe, but he still got up, so I just had to roast him with a fire spell in two hands.

Do creatures in Skyrim have elemental weaknesses, or just resistances? It made sense to me to use a fire spell on a frost troll, and the lightning spell (love that as well) seemed to be particularly effective on arthropods. I did verify that the undead are immune to poisons, but the cold damage from my axe didn't seem to be more or less effective on the troll. So what's the deal?

LTK:
Oh, I'm not one to run from a fight. Although sometimes I feel a little bit bad about getting into fights with creatures that are just minding their own business. Like that family of trolls in the goldmine near Valtheim Towers. (On the other hand, they did massacre the original inhabitants, so I guess it evens out.) And I think it was rather nice of me to not kill any of the bears I encountered. Not before someone asked me to do just that, anyway.  :angel: :evil:

But I only managed to get a horse after descending down the mountain. I took one from the Stormcloak camp east of the mountain; they didn't seem to mind. But it seems to have wandered off while I had to go talk to the Jarl. Damn it, those things don't just grow on trees!

Dazed:
Shadowmere is basically immortal.

Dazed:
Also, the decapitation finisher animations are about 60-65% of why I play this game.

Here you go, a cowardly horses mod.

I haven't been able to decapitate anyone yet, Dazed. Plenty of other finisher moves though, like sweeping someone's legs out from under them before planting the axe in their skull. Do you need a specific weapon or a specific skill to do decapitations?
