Stacking Death

Post » Thu Dec 15, 2011 3:50 am

So I was in a cave, creeping along and slaughtering Draugr. I came across one that was playing possum on his crypt bed. There was a Fire Trap on the floor fairly close to him. I decided to throw a Lightning Rune on top of it. I figured I'd get his attention and see what would happen when he stepped on the Rune'd Fire Trap.

Well, I Fire Beath Shouted him, and it killed him instantly because I was Sneaking. :facepalm:

BUT! The Fire Shout set off the Rune'd Trap as it passed over it! Had I got him to walk into the Trap, I could've Shouted Fire also for an ultimate Overkill. I'll have to see if I can reload and get it to work.

What kind of Overkills have you managed on enemies, regardless of the situation? I like hearing what other players discover when they try to get...dangerously creative. :hubbahubba:

Fus roh da a bunch of bandits (3) into a corner then used fire storm scroll on them. they were just bandits total overkill.

I used this special scroll a mage wanted me to "test out" little did i know using it on more than five draugr creates a massive explosion(s), whole room filled with flames when the flames cleared i realised all the draugr were dead and i was too.

Nice. Draugr make such excellent fodder for target practice.

Prowled up right behind a skeever on my Thief character, and pulled out my duel-wield daggers. Just for kicks, I drank a Fortify One-hand potion I had, while I had the +20% one-handed damage gloves from the Thieves Guild.

Add to that the VERY weak enchant on my daggers, the fact that they're fairly powerful, and my 15X sneak multiplier. I didn't just go for a power attack, either, I went for the double-hand power attack, with the multiple spins.

I think that skeever felt it pretty hard.

I was playing around making videos and just for the hell of it, I FUS RO DAH'd a normal bear, then summoned a Dremora Lord while spraying Wall of Flames. I think I did enough damage to the bear that his ancestors died all over again. I'm sure I've done sillier stuff than that, but that one sticks out in my mind.
