    This might be the best I've ever seen Miraak fight. He was keeping range at all the right times then was even spamming his staff and healing spell when the Ebony Warrior got right up in his face. Looked like a player was controlling him at a few points.

      He did very well indeed! Although some more shouts would have been useful in between as well. 😅

      Cool! I would like to bring it back, but I'm not sure against whom. We need a small amount of opponents because it's already getting chaotic, but even the two hardest bosses in the game struggle here, so I don't know.

      Karstaag has 4000 life points, and also regenerates life all the time... Didn't get stunned that many times as the ebony warrior did, if the ebony warrior didn't got stun all the times he got stunned, could've won
      Karstaag is like the definition of Full life and damage, ebony warrior is the combination of everything important I think. Although on some fights, Karstaag wins, ebony warrior wins, one looses, idk i guess it RNG

      @@APFA. Yup, if the Ebony Warrior didn't have to deal with all the stagger, he would probably win, although only if he kills Harkon first. Karstaag actually didn't heal as much here because he was taking fire damage very often, but it's still useful in between.
      You're right about that too! The Ebony Warrior is more balanced in general, but Karstaag's damage is better. RNG is definitely also a factor with all battles. In my several hours of testing those two setups, the Ebony Warrior lost pretty often, while Karstaag did much better 😄

    Nice episode! It's always cool to see the Ebony Warrior lose. I have more suggestions:
    Ysolda vs Camilla Valerius
    Aela and Mjoll vs Serana
    Savos Aren vs Kodlak, Astrid and Mercer Frey
    Ebony Warrior vs some Werewolves or Werebears (your choice really)
    Thoron vs the Caller

    • @lSlendermaster
      @lSlendermaster  5 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks! He doesn't lose that often, so I agree, it's interesting to see!
      Ebony Warrior vs. werecreatures ends up in being almost permanent ragdoll, so it's pretty boring and disappointing to see. He can't do much, unless I reduce the amount of werewolves/werebears to such a low number that he kills them in no time. 🤷 Maybe I'll try at some point, but I wouldn't bet on it being part of an episode.
      The Caller is hard to use because she's leveled, together with her atronachs. We might end up with 3 Storm Atronachs at once (but not guaranteed, there's not much I can do to force it). This would get terribly chaotic, especially because Thoron only has shock magic.
      I *might* also try this, but probably not for now. 😅 I've avoided the Caller because I can't control her summons easily, which would be necessary for good fights.
      As for the others, they're either awfully buggy (Serana, I'm looking at you), or just not interesting to me. Sorry 😅

    Now i know why ebony warrior lost, if you hear carefully, the sound of when you use the Stony Skin Effect appears on 1:25, if you look carefully also since the beginning of the fight, he didnt use that spell to reduce the damage before, thats why he lost, his AI must of got confused at the beginning because of Alduin's shout that stunned him...
    Sadge i think he would've won if he used that at the beginning when he had 2000 life and not when he had 500 life...

There is only 1 kind of cheat against him which is if you Fus ro dah him say off a cliff, he does take fall damage but when he gets up all the damage he would have taken from the fall disappears but if you hit him before he gets up, the damage counts. I did it accidentally because I used the wrong shout, I used become ethereal when I wanted to use the.. umm.. damn.. can't remember what it's called. The one that makes your attacks very fast. So the call of valour guy threw him off down the cliff, and i ended shouting become ethereal, I jumped down after him and hit him as he was getting up, and about 2/3 of his health gone lol
