Nope! I remember it happening plenty of times in Oblivion though. That and being Silenced.

My follower tried to kill a wolf with a paralyze enchanted bow but it got me instead.

I have been paralyzed and killed by the Ebony Warrior about 5 times.

The Ebony Warrior sure but before then is what I was inquiring about. and since my game is so heavily modded what about fighting foes with Enchanted weps? honest question.

I have only been paralyzed by Karliah. Other than that, I haven't been paralyzed before.

Lots of times in Oblivion.

Yup. Questline plot points of extremely ambigous validity such as the Thief guild quest line aside there have been many times.

Arnbjorn in particular, it is a nasty spell effect.

Closest thing is being knocked over by draugr shouts. Very annoying, especially considering how slowly you pick yourself back up.

You guys have never been paralyzed in regular gameplay?

Lucky you.

Unlucky me. It is one of the most frustrating ways to die in Skyrim.

I must have been really unlucky when it comes to enemies with enchanted weapons or something.

The only time it was even worse was in Morrowind and those danged scribs.

2 times...once by some random Bandit chief with an enchanted sword, in a random spot not a "bandit" hideout.

the second time when my character ate the wrong ingredient...funnier than heck... just keel'd over.

There's hardly any regular mobs that attack with paralyze.

And I've never been paralyzed in the game, not even by the Ebony Warrior. If you count him UF'ing me every 5 seconds.

Dunno if it counts, but the Greybeards froze me & i fell over multiple times, lol. Was messing around with a character i was bored of, backstabbing them in sneak. They didn't take kindly to it.

Other than that in actual gameplay, not that i recall. Unless you count the Karliah poison in the TG questline.

No and I think I'd kill them and their mothers if they did that to me or my follower.

I got knocked over by skyrim shouts but never was I paralyzed. (I haven't fought the ebony warrior yet, for one.) That said, I fought plenty of foes with enchanted weapons.

It feels like it whenever Draugr Fus me, but otherwise, no.

I wish normal enemies did, though, but maybe that's masochistic. Hey, that's Skyrim: land of the many save files!

On PS3 Skyrim mostly freezes during the smoke loading screen. How about on Xbox360?

I can't speak for everyone but most of my freezing occurs during load screens, usually the image or smoke will freeze first then the music will stop a moment later crushing all hope that it won't freeze...once the music stops then the shows over, followed by a sigh and some light cursing :P
