No Giants in MY game :( : V

» Fri Jun 01, 2012 8:12 pm

Okay everyone I've been playing for 54hrs now; level 30 and I've seen ZERO, zilch, nadda giants. Friend tells me they are always beside mammoths. Well I've seen half a dozen of mammoths but no giants.

Where are they? and maybe my copy is missing that file lol

Within the first 4hrs of gameplay i saw a frost troll and last night last hr I actually killed a frost troll but again I havent found any Giants

I've actually run into them all over. But he is right, they are mostly located in the plains and foothills of the mountain regions, scattered around the center of the map.

There's a mammoth head symbol on the compass when your near a giants camp. Like above have said, there's a bunch around whiterun.

They are all over the map. Their camps have this icon: http://images.uesp.net/b/b2/SR-mapicon-Giant_Camp.png.

I've found a few of their camps with no giants before. Sometimes they like to walk around.

if you got the compass on, start in whiterun and look for the giant camp symbol,
it look like a mammooth skull

from whiterun, exit, go right, there is one not too far, another one up north, another one a bit beyond talos shrine

Look for the map marker that sorta looks like an octopus. That's their camps.

What kind of octopi do you see? Been hitting the skooma, again?

Are you with the companions guild?

It looks like.
But it's missing 3 pair of arms.
(YES THEY'RE ARMS)

it's like 3 tentacles... I suppose it could be a mammoth head.

LOL OCTOPUS

Consider yourself lucky. Within the first 7 hours I stumbled across two, and not knowing whether they were hostile or not, I walked up to them and was quickly sent into orbit.

Yep. When you get close look for the big ass bonfire. They'll be close by.

There is one very close to the road to Bleak Falls Barrow(I think it's there. Either that or the other cave you get sent to near the very beginning) opposite Whiterun. The Companians also fight them outside Whiterun. And then give you [censored] for not helping them.

LOL.

I love your avatar by the way.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks that symbol looks like a mutant octopus.

» Fri Jun 01, 2012 6:35 am

Hmm...

I was sure it was a mammoth head skull.

I've been hitting the skooma, I guess?

Thanks all; last night just before logging I went to Whiterun, exited to gameworld (not city), saw the mammoth on my radar and found the bonfire. I too walked up to the giant thinking they were non hostile but nope they came for me. Took me a while but I got both Giants and 4 mammoths. ROFL so here I was complaining that I hadnt seen any and I stumbled across TWO hehe.

Oh and apparently also mammoths become hostile when Giants are being attacked; beforehand I ran into some mammoths but they were neutral to me; oh well lol

Mammoths are the pets of the giants - they're the equivalent of dogs

when you attack the owner, the pet gets aggressive.
