Giant took an arrow to the knee.

So there I am, slugging it out with a giant. When I say slugging it out I really mean he is beating farkas into mash while I riddle him with arrows.

Farkas goes down and so now I have one angry giant literally charging down this steep hill twords me. Which is when Bethesda really impressed me.

One of my arrows falls short of center mass and hits the giant in the (no joke) knee. His leg completely gives out and he topples. Skidding right past me on the hill and off the cliff.

Dunno if it was a graphical glitch or not. If not I am really impressed with the built in physics in skyrim. It looked exactly like getting shot in the knee would look.

Next time you're in a town, look for an abnormally tall guard.

He failed the guard test but I saw him in Sloitude cleaning leaves out of gutters. Guess height has some advantages :biggrin:

I was going to shoot a Giant in the knee with an arrow, then I took an arrow to the knee.

Lol, yeah. I pulled a "Giant Smash" on a Giant the other day, twice. First time, i was doing the quest for Volendrung, and i brought a Giant to his knees, i then did a side Power Attack on him with my Mace of Molag Bal, and he went flying into the wall and crumpled dead. It was hilarious. I couldn't loot him until i left then re entered the cave though.
I did it again outside at some random Giant Camp. I smacked a Giant with a sideways power attack, and he went flying through the air and actually smashed into a charging Mammoth, killing the Giant and knocking about 1/3 the health out of the Mammoth. Was absolutely hilarious.
