There is a topic in the Skyrim GD forums

Post » Wed Jun 13, 2012 7:57 pm

And its basically courier 6 versus Dovahkiin and who would win. Peronsally I think the courier would drop the Dovahkiin in seconds and while I know this thread is bias (In the FO forums) I would still like to hear opinions.

Dovahkiin beats Courier 6. Dovahkiin could paralyze Courier 6 with ease, stop time, and get right up next to him with a heavily poisoned daedric sword and finish him off. The only chance the courier has is armor piercing ammo, in which Dovahkiin could just use stone flesh.

C6 is going to be able to put a bullet in Dragonborns head before he can cast a spell.

Courier 6 can't pull the trigger if he's paralyzed and time is stopped.

And Dragonborn cant cast a spell when his brains are all over the floor.

I'm going to say the same thing here I said in the other topic.

These are both mane characters in highly open-ended games. They could be played literally any way. Some Courier 6's would kick some Dovahkiin asses, and vice versa.

Thats true but if we take the best possible Courier and best possible Dragonborn I beleive its going to be a close fight but i'd put my money on the courier.

Though what is best is highly suggestive and changes from person to person.

It all depends on who gets the jump on who.

If the courier gets a nice sneak crit and then goes all out with mini-nukes and machine guns, he is bound to win.
If the Dragonborn gets the jump on the courier, he will send him flying with a Fus-Ro-Dah and light him on fire. He could also stop time and paralyze the courier before the courier even realizes he is there.

It all depends on who starts the attack, they would have the upper hand.

Given the canon* characters for each game - Dovahkiin in his Studded Armor, Iron Helmet, Iron Gauntlets and Iron Boots, with his Steel Sword and Banded Iron Shield (All pretty early-game items), and Courier 6 in his Armored Vault Suit, with Courier's Stash weapons, I'd have to give it to the Courier, just because the early-game items given to the canon* Dovahkiin wouldn't be sufficient to deal with the weapons in Courier's Stash. Also think of what the character would be thinking. The Dovahkiin would likely be confused, facing a strange man with weapons and clothing he's never seen before, while the Courier probably just sees an armored crazy who wants his head.

*Not sure if "canon" is the best term, but it's the one I'm using. What I mean is the iconic, commonly recognized iteration of those characters.

Its okay, he'll just use VATS.



No but really, its sort of a silly debate.

It is a silly debate but I find it annoying that people are saying Daedric armor is just as good if not better as Power Armor.

The dragonborns shouts are what would make him the winner. You can't shoot a guy that is using whirlwind sprints to move extremely quickly. Not to mention that the dragonborn can summon a dragon. If the courier has trouble killing a deathclaw, how is the courier going to kill the dragonborns dragon while still fighting off the dragonborn.

Oh, it would surely be an dramatic moment with the Dovahkiin plunging a sword in Courier gut while the Courier shoves an pistol to Dovahkins face and pulls the trigger. Both dead and some sad violin music is played in the background.

Didn't mean to sound like a grumpy old man there. :biggrin:


Just saying any fight between the two largely depends on who each person has as their Courier/Dovahkin. For instance, my Dovahkin is currently a scrawny little dark elf who likes to read books and cook, doesn't like to fight, and hasn't even learned a word of power yet.

On the other hand, my Courier is a battle hardened Enclave Remnants shocktrooper with a perchance towards shooting first and not asking questions later. Not really a contest in that case.

But I also have another Courier whos alot like the Dovakhin I mentioned above. This one doesn't even have a main combat skill and is just a science/speech type character. In that case, they would probably just look at each other, pull up some chairs, and have a hot cup of tea together like proper gentlemen.
