High level content?

Post » Tue May 29, 2012 3:09 pm

As the title might suggest, Im wondering where people are going so they have fights and quests that are not level capped. I know drauger are level capped at the 40's so they are out the window for a challenge, and bandits are not leveled so who's actually left to fight and where? Basically as my character is over level 50 and not completed the MQ Im looking for quests/dungeons I can delve for a challenging combat experience.

If you are willing to stash all of your items and put on some fur you’ll be encountering monsters that pawn you in no time.

I'm not that high level, but are the dwemer ruins leveled? I think Falmer go up higher than bandits, I know I crush bandits in one or two hits 99% of the time, but I've wandered into falmer areas and if you have to fight a group, they can still be tough.

Try the Falmer in Liar's Redoubt, I must have caught them on a bad day or something because they were pretty difficult at level 35.

My mage at lvl 47 got one shotted with 240hp at master by a forsworn pillager or something, some dual wielding mob. Safe to say pride comes before the fall -.-

No, you get perks till level 81 which is the skill cap.

Dwemer ruins are definitely leveled, at least some of them are. The centurions and spheres and spiders have higher-level variants like centurion prime or sphere guardian master and stuff like that.

The centurion masters are powerhouses.

And the Falmer have high-level variants in their gloomlurkers, nightprowlers (I think) and shadowmasters.

At level 55 the only dungeons that seem to give me trouble anymore are the Dwemer ruins.

However, some burial caves are leveled. I just went through Forelhost for the first time at level 50 and the place was full of draugr. The lowest-level draugr I saw were Scourges, and I saw several Deathlords and even a couple Death Overlords too.

What difficulty r you playing at? When i gear up like a bandit I get my butt handed to me regularly. No magic resistance equals great fear of the ancient dragons.

Yeah. I took off all my enchanted gear and just have the weapons and at 80 I am getting 1 shot by ancient dragons. Also drauger deathlords take awhile to kill. This is on master. I am enjoying it a bit more now that it is a little challenging

I am level 81 mage, I will still one hit killed by ancient dragon or giant If I did not wear enchanted armor or cast any Alteration spell.

But if I am serious and wearing perfect gear, there is hardly a challenge...unless I took an arrow on my knee :)
