Shouts are unbalanced.

As I saw in a youtube video, Miraak was spiting out Yol Toor Shul which(on master difficulty) on dude with 500 health and 50 fire resistance, took a quarter of his health.He did this every 10 seconds.Whereas the Dragonborn has t wait 2 minutes to kill a [censored] spider with 3 words of power on master.Bethesda, you're joking right?

Sounds like you have to imploy a more defensive stragety, like using Ethereal shout or Unrelenting Force Shout to stun him before he gets the first word out.

Im just guessing.

And yet, if the player could do what certain NPCs do, the complaint would again be that Shouts are unbalanced... Certain NPCs should be treated as boss level enemies, meaning the player should not be able to take them out easily or have the same powers. Bosses are supposed to be more challenging.

I don't like the cool downs being so long. That's my only gripe. Several minutes on some of them is just overkill for what they offer.

Wait the ancient dragonborn who devoured multiple dragons is better at shouting than a guy who just started doing this for a couple of months?

Who would've thought...

So what you're saying is you're angry that some of the enemies provide challenging fights?

That's why when I face Miraak, I'll be having the Fortify Shouts glitch. Shouts don't do much damage anyways.
