Skyrim Battles - Dustman's Cairn vs. Ahzidal, Thoron, Karstaag, and more

  • I'm currently experimenting with some new formats. A few weeks ago, I have had a bunch of enemies assault Whiterun. This time, Dustman's Cairn gets raided! It's one of the best Nordic tombs for this format, with lots of draugr and a nice, open room for combat.
    A few notes about this: Most players visit Dustman's Cairn at a low level, which results in rather weak draugr. But things get a bit different at high levels, as many draugr can spawn as Deathlords. This is not a mod; it's what happens if you first visit the area when your level is already very high.
    Even though Dustman's Cairn is relatively good for this kind of format, scripted battles are still a whole lot more difficult to work with than my usual simplistic fights. This includes issues such as the intruders attacking the draugr before they leave their sarcophagi, or the draugr trying to escape through the entry door (which they can open even if it's locked with a key required).
    I was not expecting so many Deathlords to spawn here. They can overwhelm almost any NPC with ease. Initially, I've wanted to see Karstaag against them but decided not to use him because I thought he would be overkill. After recording the first few rounds, it turned out that Karstaag was exactly the hero we needed!
    Please also note that those level 30 Deathlords are not comparable to level 45 Death Overlords, who look the same but are much superior in terms of damage, health, and shouts.
    There's a total of 18 draugr in the room. In this case, we have:
    2 Draugr (level 1)
    2 Restless Draugr (level 6)
    1 Hulking Draugr (level 26)
    13 Draugr Deathlords (level 30)
    This episode is not to be confused with another similar video I have made before, where I spawned individually-selected draugr and Dragon Priests in the same room based on a timer. As opposed to that, all the draugr in this video are naturally spawned by the game.

    You just sit there, waiting for Karstaag to stomp again so he can regenerate. He makes it so exciting, allowing the Deathlords to get him to low HP only for him to go SIKE and blizzard them all away.

      ​@@lSlendermasterWerebears are probably my favorite generic enemy because of how broken they are. They're incredibly strong, but their character mesh often bugs out when they transform, which makes them stuck. The fact that they still keep their generic "MaleNord" voicelines, even while transformed, is just the icing on the cake.

      I wouldn’t say he’s fast, he’s probably the slowest boss in the game plus his attacks are easy to dodge. Only problem is he can hurt you without even touching you plus that stomp of his can send you flying even if you aren’t that close to him.

    Awesome video! It's crazy how Karstaag is the only one in the entire video that managed to kill them all, although they got him on the brink of death, he didn't stomp that often like he usually does, his stomp ability is so broken I'm kinda glad he didn't stomp as much, made it more of a fair fight lol.

      @@lSlendermaster After I saw that video on karstaag vs the EW in sovnguared and karstaag was treating the ebony warrior like a toy cause he stomped so often and it kind of made the battle unfair because the Ebony Warrior couldn't do anything, he kept getting thrown through the air and spent most of the fight getting back up and healing. I wish the EW was immune to stagger, it would give him a better chance against karstaag.

      ​@@dragonmagic9872 I get what you mean, yeah. What makes it worse is that Karstaag has a highly increased chance to use power attacks if his target is currently blocking, which is the Ebony Warrior's normal behavior when fighting melee opponents. 😂
      Karstaag vs. The Ebony Warrior is unbalanced because Karstaag has several advantages in a direct comparison, but the Ebony Warrior does very well in other situations, especially against ranged fighters. Overall, Karstaag is still better, but he struggles with strong physical and fire damage more than the Ebony Warrior does.
