What is that?

Fus Ro Dah is the best way to get that stubborn companion out of the doorway they're blocking.

A taunt that causes enemies to search you without revealing your position.

Marked for Death is best for warriors

Throw Voice seems to work just as well with only one word as it does with 3. I use it quite frequently as well

I use a mix, but so far Fire Breath (with the bonus) and UF are my two most common. I use UF in tight spots to slam enemies into walls.. or my favorite.. on tower and mountain top type places to toss them over the edge :biggrin:

I just started with the voice throw one.. thought it was kinda funny. Haven't experimented with the others much.. I suppose I should do that. :whistling:

I like to use UF when my enemies are near a cliff lol

ethereal ice form and slow time to name just a few
animal allegiance can be quite handy when an animal is kicking your ass

I like to use toe fire shout just so i can think, im making fire with my voice lol, i just wish it did more damage

None of them are game changers. They are novelties at best.

When you can beat the crud out of everything in the game with little effort it doesn't make a difference if you dance around a bit first.

I mainly use ice breath. On my second archer file I mainly use marked for death.

I have shouted 1057 times, apparently my faviourite spell is 'Become Etheral', probably because i use it so much when im climbing huge mountains, and then i make quick escapes by jumping off, i use Become Etheral to survive the fall ^_^ ... but my faviourate offence shout is Yol Toor Shul (fire breath), but i also use alot of other spells during combat, such as mark for death, and Dragonrend when fighting Dragons (not that thats hard anymore)..

combat wise as a mage I only use three shouts, ethereal, freezing, and force;
ethereal for fights/situations where is hard or impossible to kite and damage is dangerous, this is very rare tho, force when Im fightting frost resiting mobs/bosses that cant be freezed/dont last very long, and freeze is my main shout, since it allows me reprieve when my mana is too low to cast paralysis or simply when I want a large group of mobs setup for my, limited use, of master rank aoe casted spells.
edot: oh forgot to say slow time I used alot vs other casters and archers, because it allows me to avoid missing spells alot, aswell as dodge their spells/arrows aswell.

as a warrior I use alot of different shouts tho, well not having almost all keybinds filled with tons of different spells help, but I use force vs bosses/hard liutenants, yol, for dmg and dmg multiplier, wuld for escaping or quickly closing the gap, the dark brotherhood one on armored dudes (I love swords too much to go for axes or maces) and I think thats about it.



I use wuld there

Used that one really late I preferred Elemental Fury for my Battleaxe wielding Nord in Light Armor (yay! for "natural" 50% stamina regen)

One thing about Animal Alliance turned me off: If you have a follower/companion he/she/it will still attack the animals you put under control so it was useless too me since my wifey always killed them before I could put them to good use.

I haven't found enough shouts but at the moment I use frost most of the time, and sometimes fire. And of course the mighty ARROW TO KNEE.

Ice Form is fantastic for crowd control, or preventing things from running away. It's super useful for acquiring a daedric object which may or may not be related to astronomy. :wink_smile:

I am mostly using Ice Form, Unrelenting Force, Fire Breath, Become Ethereal and Elemental Fury. The last one is probably the most useful for powerful enemies.

I use aura whisper all the fricken time, it sees far, and leveled actually lasts a long time, and is free

Unrelenting force makes fighting giants feel like a walk in the park. (I do have to admit there is quite a hurricane in the park, but still xD)

does just what it sounds like, aim, and you throw your voice, then the idiots chase it, great for sneaking around

Nothing is more fun to watch then a sabre cat or bear running at you with full speed just to fly past you frozen solid, instead of doing the " cool guys don't look at explosions " you do cool guys don't look at frozen animals. Just leave them in that form while you just walk away lol


Ice Form is by far one of the best in the game, fire and ice just seem to piss people off more then harm them for me.

I love using the Elemental Fury shout together with my dual wield swords. They just go SLASHSLASHSLASH and no one is left standing

I'm playing a sword and shield warrior and my favourite Shout is become ethereal. I love using this to close the gap when fighting mages/archers. You can smell the fear as back away casting spells/firing arrows to no effect, knowing my blade is about to impale them.

I also use marked for death, elemental fury and whirlwind sprint.

Elemental Fury with swords (swing the fastest) that have bleed damage perk. and been loading up on stamina and or gear that buffers stamina. :flamethrower:

If I find myself with like 3 Draugr Scourges and a Deathlord = Disarm and pick up their weapons. Their fists are really weak I must say.
If I see a bandit on a cliff the OCD takes over and I have to use Unrelenting Force so I clearly see him bumping from rock to rock...
If I see a gang of filthy Thalmor I usually free the prisoner and then Ice Form the rest, then I kill them off one by one.
If I find myself not doing enough damage, it's time for Marked for Death.

I basically have all Shouts, but it seems that I use Disarm, Unrelenting Force, Ice Form and Marked for Death pretty often.
