Lv 16 now

Dragons just breathe fire at you. You absorb the dragon soul, then go in to the magic menu and look at the words you've learned then use the shouts on the words.

The shouts should be grayed out so far, you'll have to unlock them under "Magic" -> "Shouts" using R (keyboard) or X (Xbox360 controller). The bottom right should tell you the number of unspent dragon souls.

Did you use any soul points?
Yu gotta go into your magic shouts and buy them with dragon souls.

go to the magic menu and find shouts. the shouts you've learned from walls should be listed. to activate a shout you need 1 dragon soul. put your cursor over the shout you want to activate and in the bottom left corner of the screen it will tell you what button to push to activate that shout.

Does your character absorb dragon souls after you kill them? If yes, go to spells menu (press P on PC or circle/B on consoles and go to "Shouts", learn any shout you want and you can use it!

You leanr the shouts by approaching a Dragon Wall. (Covered in writing and with one word glowing per wall)

Killing dragons gives you a dragon soul, which you then spend on your magic menu to 'unlock' the shout.

1. Open magic menu.
2. Scroll down to shouts.
3. Notice the amount of dragon souls you have absorbed in the lower right hand corner.
4. Notice the controls on how to apply them in the lower left hand corner.


I think you should be good now.

Thx guys, i have killed few of them but as i got really bad eyesight i missed that, the text in this game is really hard to read lol. Thanks again
