Bears are hella strong

I see a Blood Dragon: mmmkay

I see a Cave Bear: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

I don't have to use potions to fight a dragon, or most other opponents, but against Cave Bears I do. Maybe they're a little overpowered?

I don't know if I've fought a cave bear but I've killed several snow bears.

My thoughts are this: Dragons could own a bear because they can fly and keep hammering fire from above. However a bear will give you all it's got on the ground and cause you much more immediate pain where a dragon circles around and gives you time to heal. So basically bears are harder briefly, even though a dragon probably takes more damage but they don't attack very fast or frequently.

Honestly I'm disappointed at dragons. They are way too easy to kill, I see one and I'm like oh cool another soul in the bag. THey should instill fear and give the player oh [censored] factor X10 over anything else. It should be an epic thing to kill one, not easier than a frost troll.

Bears are strong, blood dragons are strong, giants kick my ass. I was fighting two dragons, a normal dragon, and a blood dragon. The blood dragon was kicking my ass until I used Dragon Call. That dragon helped me with the first. When I was looking for the blood dragon, as I hadn't killed it yet, turned out a giant killed it. Then the giant killed me. :P In two hits.

Don't know about anyone else but I find dragons difficult. I almost always get caught someplace with no cover.

Bears just shred me. I avoid 'em :)

The bears suppose to be extra strong, esp their body weight and they do have alot of strength and stamina. So becareful, i had to run like hell few times in expert level and manage to kill one with sneak attack with a bow at distance.

You know, the real final boss in skyrim is actually one of those wooden carts with the weird physics which utterly destroy you if you so much as jump in them.

That is true, some are weird physic gizmos out there could kill you if you not careful. I was running down the road and saw ppls walking by and i turn around bumped into the silly cart in the middle of the road, lol the cart came flying around and kill one npc walking and damage me alittle. I though they were going to kill me for doing that, sadly i didnt mean to lol.

The Falmer are immense. On a new save I'm only level 8 or so and was given the task of emptying out one of their caves. All I can say is.. dayum, even with upgraded steel armour and dual steel swords, more than one of them at a time is a real headache for someone who doesn't use magic or shields.

I like the fact that giants are badass.. they are like 15ft tall versions of you.. if you can take out a dragon it stands to reason that someone nearly three times your character's height and weight could do the same thing.

Bears are easy just strafe around them, using the normal attack. Same with Frost trolls.

I had to solo an entire camp of them in a quest. Not fun.

Re dragon strength, expect it to be one of the first things modded. Everyone wants it.

What difficulty do you play?
What "class"?
On master my dual wielding warrior once killed 2 cave bears at once, but i cant kill a dragon.
