Dragons and College of Winterhold

Post » Tue Dec 13, 2011 9:49 am

Well, currently I'm doing the College of Winterhold quests. I'm doing those just fine no problems. The problem I do have; however, is that every time I complete a quest and exit into the inner grounds of the college, a Blood Dragon attacks. I currently have 5 skeleton corpses on the inner grounds. The physics of the game is out of whack, so every time I leave, they bounce and flop every where. I'm just curious if they are going to keep spawning until I'm finished with the missions. I don't want to have 10 billion(exaggeration) corpses everywhere. It's starting to lag the area all to hell.

Well... at least you have a good supplies of souls.
I suggest casting a reanimate spell on them and throw their corpses into the cliff. Battle a glitch with another glitch, heh.

I've had more dragons spawn at winterhold college than anywhere else. The problem may be fast travel; they appear more often when I use it. And when I travel to winterhold, for whatever reason, it's usually by fast travel.

I had a similar problem. Seemed like there were at least 4 skeletons at all times. Some jiggled in archways. Seems to have died down lately. An ancient dragon from time to time now.

I experienced that and still do. Almost every time i go to the college a dragon shows up, especially if i fast travel there. If i don't fast travel there they'll usually show up when I walk outside. I've probably killed 20 of my 55 dragons there. I've had up to three skeletons in the yard bouncing around and one bouncing on the bridge.

No not really, I thought it was wierd dragons seem to attack there the most, whats worse is they never seem to land on the ground, they keep landing on the tower at the top then every time I climb the stairs and make it up there, the dragon is gone <_<

It wouldn't be an issue if I weren't on my way to a quest every time I go to leave. /starts quest. A WILD BLOOD DRAGON APPEARS. /slay dragon. FINALLY START QUEST. Sigh.

According to the Prima guide, there are certain places where dragons have a higher chance to randomly appear. The college of Winterhold was in that list of places and since you are often at the college you will often get dragon spawns there. Other places are the tower stone, Bleak Falls, High Hrothgar, and many more areas.
