They can be easy, though they can be hard. I will admit I have had my [censored] handed to me a few times by dragons, but there have been times when I handed their's to them, and battles that were neck to neck. They are an okay, but over-hyped, boss-type enemy.

Sometimes, when I get to sneak up on them and kill them in one hit, they are easy. But last night I had to fight 2 dragons and a dragon priest at once... Now THAT was a challenge. Took me many-many reloads, but I managed to win in the end

they were reasonable at the start. I dual wield and got to the point where as soon as they land they would die in 2-3 sec (boring). had to put it on expert so now I cant just stand in the fire :)

Which priest was that? I have only found krosis at the moment, and he was no match for my dremora lord+sneak attack bow

I'm a pure mage and at level 25 I killed a Blood Dragon (master difficulty) in less than 30 seconds, believe me, I just spam Firebolts with two hands and it staggers the dragon, also I spent only in magicka (2 hits I die normally)

I also think they are too easy, they need to be more aggressive and have more attacks like tails, also they need to put their heads inside towers/forts/etc so I don't simply run into it and be safe.

The problem with this: You can't make them too difficult, nor can you make a rat too easy. The game revolves around beating both in combat in a manner that's fun. It's really hard to make "realism" and "fun" match.

I think dragons are to easy for sure...

Ive fought bandits who insta fragged me with a 2 hand weapon or arrow to the face, yet a dragon barely scratches me... seems a little unbalanced at the moment.

I play spellsword and I have no problem killing them if they land but while they are midair it's very hard to hit them with projectile magic, and when you do it doesn't make much of a damage because Destruction svcks in this game. I would say dragons are more frustrating than anything. They are like the bastard children of Cliff Racers + Oblivion Gates. I'm starting the regret starting the main quest.

Yeah, it was krosis, but I had to fight him and two dragons at the same time...

I love his mask though, now my character looks like a masked vigilante. :disguise:

Too easy?! I dare you to set the difficulty all the way to the max and then go hunt one down. It would only need one power attack to eat you whole.

That character in that video has clearly exploited the game mechanics and/or has the difficultly on Novice.

I think the phrase is, disingenuous posturing.

Not so much to many just pop up when you really can't be bothered to fight one.

E.G. was going a about assassination for the dark bortherhood and RWAR! dragon pops his head.
