I play on Adept, and most of the time, if I'm careful, I fight most mobs without too much problem.


(Spoilers - Sort of..)


However, when I entered the cavernous portion of the main quest's Dwemer dungeon, (the place with red Nirnroots), I was suddenly getting my butt kicked. If I wasn't uber-careful, I would die. And I did die multiple times.

There have been other times, when I just roflstomped the hell out of mobs. Like the latter portions of the imperial legion quests. I'd take on 4 or 5 guys at once, and come out with little-to-no health damage.

I assume this is part of the mob-leveling system, but I don't yet understand precisely how it works... Anyone have an intimate understanding of the AI's leveling system and care to divulge their knowledge?


Thanks in advance.
