Skyrim save file reading bugleveling bug

Post » Mon Aug 06, 2012 5:43 pm

So I've just realized a REALLY WEIRD bug that I've never had issues with before, and it only started happening recently when my dad and I created new save files on the same PS3 account as our older ones without deleting anything. First clue was when I went into the quest with the Companions to retrieve the shard of Wuutherd and the final draugr to pop out of the boss room was none other than a Draugr Deathlord with an Ebony waraxe! Now, normally this wouldn't be a big deal, except I was level 11 when this happened... Next clue was when my dad got amushed on his newer game at level 33 by an Ancient Dragon. Now unless I'm mistaken, those things aren't supposed to start appearing until you hit about level 70. My other account is around level 58, and his is (last I checked) 68. Is this just a weird leveling bug happening coincidentely close to each other or could there be a bug where the PS3 is reading another save file's level data and using that to determine enemy levels? As a side note common enemies seem to remain correctly leveled, with the exception of a sabre cat appearing on the way to Windhelm from Whiterun at level 8 where there would normally have been a pack of wolves.
