So I just started playing master difficulty. Today I came upon a forsworn camp with 2 forsworn. My companion was hung up somewhere but I was sure my level 14, 2-hander Nord could handle them.

I rushed up and cut one down. The second one blasted me with frost magic, forcing me to retreat and heal as two more forsworn shot arrows at me.

OK so this camp is bigger than I thought. I ran forward planning to Battle Cry all 4 of them, when 6 more dots popped up on my radar.

Crap! I was sure I was dead. Then suddenly out of nowhere a Blood Dragon swooped overhead. All the forsworn started casting/shooting upwards, ignoring me.

It gave me enough time to rush in the middle and Battle Cry all of them. My companion arrived and a 30 second bloodbath ensued.

After surviving the odds, seeing what will probably be my greatest use of Battle Cry and killing 8 enemies, the Blood Dragon landed and promptly ate my poor Nord...

Master difficulty can be mean.

That sounds like an epic fight. I've had lots of trouble with forsworn camps at Master level,similar to this.
