Doing the thieves guild and im in Inrkngthand, and around EVERY corner is a [censored] Falmer Shadowmaster, the amount of times i've had to quicksave and quickload is unbearable! For the sake of the Thieves Guild i'm wearing the Nightengale armour instead of Dragonbone, and using the Nightengale blade instead of my suped up legendary nord hero dual blades.. and im on master.

Does anyone else find them this [censored] annoying? I can imagine they'd still be quite the nuisance even with my usual get-up...

I've been using the full Mark Of Death and then using different shouts to knock them over, then attacking.. but it's so frustrating when they one shot me with their arrows or poison me to death with their blades..

Back pedal, hit, back pedal, hit. Only advice I can give you. They aren't annoying to me though I just block everything and then swing my legendary daedric sword around like an idiot and they die.

The poison in their blade sure does drain your health, they're not too much of a hassle to me any more but I remember being at a lower level and having to be very strategic in defeating them.

Every problem can be solved with a little unrelenting force, I always say. Literally, every time I have a problem with an enemy, I knock 'em down.

100 Sneak.
Muffle perk.
Dagger Sneak Perk.
Invisibility potion.
Instant Success.

put on your good armor?

I find the Falmer to be quite easy.

Even as low as my sneak is, one shot with a Daedric Bow, and the light shines no more for the shadow masters

Yeah, sneaking up on 'em is fairly easy. Y'know, since they're blind.
