What is the level requirement for Dragonborn?

» Mon Nov 19, 2012 1:37 pm

30+ seems logical plus if they make it a lower level requirement then a lot of people will be complaining that the final boss fight was too easy

not really since Dawnguard could be played at level 1, yet Harkon leveled all the way to 81.

A boss's difficutly has nothing to do with a minimum level requirement, and setting the min level at like 10 doesnt prevent him from being any more or less powerful then he would be if the level req was 30.

Dawnguard started at level 10 though, no?

There shouldn't be a level cap, but the difficulty on Solstheim should be hard. Kinda like bloodmoon. You could go to Solstheim any time, but if you weren't prepared it was gonna be a [censored] to fight through.

no because Dawnguard starts at level 10 and quite frankly i tried it and it was hard on an early level which was odd Harkon took me three save loads and a ton of potions and besides the failsafe is in this game lol you know where enemies do level up when you do

yes it does

I got the rumour for Dawnguard at level 2...

If they do set a level requirement for the main quest of Dragonborn, it'll probably be level 20 at the highest, given thats the standard set in vanilla for high end quests that are level locked.

it's all based on luck on an early level for Dawnguard now for Dragonborn certain threads have been talking about the requirements and well the higher the better no one wants a level 20 boss and all you do is fus ro dah him and kick his butt in one,two, three people want a challenge from Skyrim's Bosses

Im sorry but, what?

Nothing you said makes any sense, or relates to my comment about how minium level caps do not affect a bosses maximum level.

if you tried Dawnguard at an early level you are going to get your butt kicked, and the level caps does matter because the bosses and every enemy npc level up when you do so that's why Todd Howard said in an interview or when doing Behind the Scenes he stated or someone stated: "We want the enemies in Skyrim to be more of a challenge than Oblivion, forcing the player to change tactics during combat" therefore being at a higher level DOES in fact help or negates the player by how much is up to sheer luck

Umm no, thats caused by the fact that the area has a set minimum level for monstersm, which is level 10, trying to do Dawnguard before level 10 is only hard becuase the lowest monster spawn is level 10.

The monsters in Dawnguard scale the exact same way as every other monster in Skyrim does. Level req in no way affect the power of monsters, they just make monsters not spawn lower then a certain level. Luck has literally nothing to do with Skyrim's combat/leveling system.

Dragonborn DLC will have a pre level requirement it will be stupid if it is a level 20+ requirement it's going to be level 30+ and the scaling of the monsters in Dawnguard level up when you do, and level req changes the tactics of how the enemy npc should proceed with each level up, luck in a way is helping you in Skyrim because if you have the WRONG set of skills but if you have the right shouts and equipment guess what you have a chance but it depends on how many times you block, shout, strike

It seems to me that the logical place to 'open' Dragonborn is once the PC completes the vanilla main quest. That would mean the PC needs to be AT LEAST level 40.

i agree! i don't want an easy boss fight especially with the "First Dragonborn" i want an epic boss battle that i will be wanting to replay over and over again

That is actually incorrect, all level scaling does is increase the health, and weapons, that enemies use, level 30 Dragur deathlords use the exact same tactics as level 1 dragur do.

ah! but there weapons are 50/50 most of them have enhancement weapons half of them are either scourges,wrights, and deathlords and depending on who you are fighting they will use shouts or, disarm shout, is that not a change in tactics for the higher level dragur? the only one that doesn't change is the first two dragur types which uses the same stance in battle

I have never been in a dungeon were 50% of dragur weapons had enchantments, in fact the only dragur I have ever faced with enchanted weapons are boss ones, furthermore the use of a shout is not a change in tactics, it is simply the use of a skill the lower level ons dont have, and even then, they stop usinf the disarm shout after level 30 becuase it stops affecting you.

Erm.

I have yet to have a character that passes 30 and I've completed the MQ twice.
