I thought sheogorath was the strongest with over 2000 HP and blah blah blah he just throws you into the hill of suicide. I heard there is a way to kill him before he can do that.
The Dunmer can tell you about strong crabs. I believe it’s name was Skar/Skarl. So big it was the foundation of a city with all the chitin. Eso has a quest related to it in Vvardenfell,(forgive me ive played thousands of hours and my crappy memory only stretches so far into the virtual past)

I don't really have a place to say this, but I think it would be amazing if you guys did a "playthrough" of Skyrim or other games and just talked about lore on stuff as it comes up. That would be so relaxing to listen to and it wouldn't even have to be those boring lets plays, it could be just when there's stuff to talk about. Could even just do livestreams of it and archive them for later.

Morrowind: Daedric armor is a testament to a character's adventures and experience. Only two sets of daedric armor exist in morrowind and one of them is held by a several thousand years old ancap turbowizard. Oblivion: Random mercs and brigands sport armor from a parallel plane of existence.
Reminds me of Power Armor in Fallout NV compared to Power Armor in Fallout 4 Fallout NV: you need to earn the trust and be trained by the one of the 2 most advanced factions in the Wasteland to simply wear power armor Fallout 4 2 minutes into the game: lol hey random stranger we found this power armor, hop in and kill some raiders
@@n_0477 Well it works for the male character in Fallout 4 because he was in the Army. He most likely had Power Armor training. Not so much for the female main character. She was just a lawyer. In fact how did she have the skill to use most of the weapons in the game. Pistols, shotguns, and rifles maybe but no way would she be able to use rocket launcher, miniguns, or mini nukes.
@@tylerrussell9926 That's what I said. "Pistols, shotguns, and rifles maybe but no way would she be able to use rocket launcher, miniguns, or mini nukes."
The strongest enemy in Oblivion is without question the Will-O-The-Wisp purely on intimidation factor alone. I hate fighting these things to the point i avoid them whenever i can or get a follower/summon to kill them for me while i chip away at them and quickly get away. Almost all of the Characters i've made use magic, so getting your intelligence and willpower damaged is a huge detriment. That, and if you have Knights of the Nine you can't use alters to restore your attributes until you make a goddamn pilgrimage to all the shrines so it's extra annoying to restore your damaged attributes. And don't get me started on the damage sponges known as Goblins.
100% agree with you. Those floating yellow blobs made a mess of my stats and could prevent me from re-generating magicka. Always had to go visit a chapel after running into one of them. And Goblins? Definitely the kings of damage sponges of Oblivion.
I always just make a restore spell for each stat that gives back 1 point. Good way to level restoration as well. With the Wizard Tower DLC this is something you can do fairly early unlike joining the mages guild.
@@greenscheme2040 an let’s not forget the high pitched screams they make when they take damage, if you are fighting 2-3 you will blow out your ear drums.
Will-O-The-Wisps aren’t a problem for me at all since I have 100% spell absorption in fact they actually HELP me in some cases Those goddamn goblins on the other hand are the most annoying creatures in the entire game I play as a pure mage on max difficulty and they take me (no joke) 100 hits for me to actually kill one (without use of spell stacking)
@@Albatross0913 I'm gonna side with Skip Skip. While I love it in part, everytime I make the face look nice looking straight on, it ends up looking awful from the sides, and vice versa. 😭
definitely have PTSD from that fish, I also didn't know about adjusting the brightness when I was a kid so I spent hours swimming around in the dark, drowning, and or being eaten by that giant fish.
I vaguely remember fighting my shadow clone in the shivering isle dlc, and I vaguely remember it hitting very hard. It's been a long time since I played it though, so maybe not.
The deal is that it is literally the copy of you. The NPC has all your abilities and vulnerabilities and is hard to fight, because in the game you never consider fighting yourself. The way to defeat him is to learn about your own weaknesses and I find it one of the most great things in the Shivering Isles DLC.
@@andreylobanov721 wow, does all abilities even include the custom spells? I imagine that fight would rank as really hard for mages especially. I wonder how did this not get included in this vid.
@@typhoonic not just spells, also all magic abilities that do not even require magika. I remember starting a fight with my shadow clone and she just silenced me at the first second of battle with a spell I've never used in the game and didn't even know I had it. Also the difference is only that the copy fights with a sword called shadowrend no matter what weapon you carry in the moment of battle. The armor on your character counts and duplicates on it though.
me cheesing the invisibility spell I got from the dark brotherhood merchant: "you couldn't live with your failure, and where did it bring you? *uncloaks and does sneak attack*... back to me"
The second Gatekeeper is definitely the toughest, although I’m surprised the painted troll wasn’t on this list. I remember them being absurdly difficult to kill.
i made a spell of like 100 fire, frost, and lightning damage and it killed them in one hit. or two, cant remember because they werent very memorable foes lol
From my experience, painted trolls are almost impossible to kill at low levels but easy to kill at high levels. Probably because at high levels your attributes and skills (should be) mostly maxxed out, and the painted trolls don't seem to level scale as much as other enemies. With all my stats at 100, they were very easy to beat even without turpentine.
Whenever I find myself in a place infested with goblin warlords I end up turning the difficulty all the way down so I don’t end up spending, what feels like to me, 2+ hours in some dungeon for C-tier loot.
It's phenomenal, you def need to try it. Lead with your heart and remember this game is quite old. But if you can get past the surface, it's a very deep and intriguing game to explore. Just explore and have fun.
Not realizing there was two different versions of the gate keeper until now I always thought and had the most trouble with Jyggalag. Though fighting sheogorath is always fun since he just basically says “your not worth my time.” Before teleporting you to fall from the sky to your death !
Ah I still remember the first time i found umbra. Totally panicked and ran all the way to the imperial city with here following me thinking oh the guard will help me. Nope she killed the city. Everyone of em just stacks of body’s laying around. It was kinda great till I realized they didn’t kill her and a bunch of shop keepers were dead xD
Hardest enemy i fought in Oblivion to this day. I had to cheat one time: i unequiped all my gear so that my clone was naked and fought with hands only and fought it with all my gear. But the next time i figured out how to win against myself, which was very hard.
I once leveled my character to level 200 and then got one shot from a Goblin Warlord, and this was with the difficulty slider all the way to very easy. Oblivion's leveling is perfectly balanced and fare.
Todd Howard. He was the strongest enemy in the game. Sometimes he wouldn't let you activate or complete quests. Sometimes he would make some of his minions randomly invincible. Sometimes he even decided to crash the entire game just for his own sick amusement. If not for the love and hard work of the fans, oblivion would have been nigh unplayable.
Keep on doing a good job. I follow the podcasts and listen to you guys in the background talking about lore even at work. It’s great to keep my mind in wonder and helps me putting pieces to the puzzle of the story in the game. It’s very relaxing and learn a lot while at it. Thanks for the content. Much appreciated 🔥
Hands down Jygalag the daedric god of order. Overcoming his curse of madness and returning to order once every so often to re conquer his own land. Where order is absolute and means lifeless crystalline forms, structures perfectly representative of that concept. He could probably conquer Nirn. That is why they have cursed him, since he was way too powerful.
I'd love to see one of these videos for Morrowind, then you'd have the entire modern elder scrolls series down. Until TES6 is out of course. You have a lot of time bois
If I’m not mistaken there used to be a glitch where you could save and load your save the moment you hit punishment point and you could go back to sheogorath and he just only says “oh you survived” and it breaks the quest line and npc
Level scaling in oblivion really was spawned directly from sheogoraths mind ^^ I tended to ignore melee combat all together because it was just a grind feast There were only 2 ways to play oblivion for me: 1. Only use selective few primary stats to level up and use the rest of them as minors to prevent me from leveling up too high & being willingly "stuck" at a lower level to make the enemies manageable 2. Use hand-crafted spells to deal enough damage to even the most beefed up enemies: I really loved the combination out of increase weakness to fire, ice, lightning & health damage of 100% for 10 seconds and follow it up with a combined spell of damage 20 for 3 sec (not so sure on that combination anymore ^^) of each with fire, ice, lightning & damage health The over time effect made the spells quite cheap - especially the weakness to one - (actually dirt cheap for the massive amounts of damage you can inflict!) and made even the worst enemy melt before you And you never even needed to cheese any mechanic or buff up your equipment to handle these spells Just cast these spells in fast order and you can kill most enemies with one weakness and 2 damage spells You just need to remember the time limit of the weakness spell Follow it up with other spells and oblivion is really a pleasent experience despite the grind Oh, how i loved these times 😍
I did similar in a way, but focused on Restoration instead of Destruction. I used short-duration high-bonus fortification spells. My speed-fortifying custom spell was a great way to speed things up while also raising my restoration skill.
Honestly the only enemy i have issuse with is goblin warlords most enemies i have no issues but goblin warlords with there retarded high health pool is disgusting they dont do alot of damage they just take forever to kill even with sneak attack and poisons i wish they never existed they feel out of place
if you combo weakness to magic, weakness to frost, frost damage, then fortify intelligence and magicka for like 2 seconds. long enough to get the next cast off. your magicka total is boosted then drops and boosts again which for some reason actually recovers a portion of your magicka letting you continue to cast, so long as you keep casting. as soon as you stop the effect runs out and you'll be empty. the spell effect itself weakens the enemy to magic meaning the next cast's weakness effects will be boosted, this compounds every cast and doubles the effect again due to the added weakness to element. after the third cast you'll do somewhere in the neighborhood of a million damage which is the highest number oblivion could handle a creatures health being set to in my testing.
Strongest enemy in Skyrim with the largest disadvantage among every enemy: slaughterfish Unlike oblivion you are unable to attack in water leaving you completely open to being attacked by such a fast enemy. While the slaughterfish doesn’t deal a lot of damage they will pose more of a threat in large numbers which puts you at a critically dangerous disadvantage. While in water you are unable to use weapons, magic, and shouts so your only chance of survival is to use friendly NPC’s or to swim away to get onto land.
When I was a kid I started a fight I couldn´t finish with Umbra. I tried to run away from her, I escaped the dungeon but she followed me even underwater all the way to imperial city. In the city she got a bunch of npc attacking her and when they were finished there were just corpses laying around everywhere. I ran away but some random old ladies just charged to attack.
I literally started a new Oblivion playthrough yesterday. Now I've got a video that tells me about all the enemies I don't want to find at my low level.
FudgeMuppet: Ok it's time for our epic and cinematic intro for our video with all these dead enemies around us. Man we work really hard to set this all up for this epic momen- Wild Mage: -flings a fire spell ruining the perfect intro-
Sheogorath is one scary daedra. The top ranks are almost all from the shivering isles. And even in morrowind, the golden saints were very hard to fight. Good thing he doesn't invade Tamriel
Its a shame I lost my oldest save file before I was even done with the Shivering Isles DLC, so I cant really go fight those enemies. I think my character then was pure melee, but right now I started a templar with melee but also restoration/buff spells. Dunno if I will play the entire game again but I at least wanna try beating the top three enemies in this list.
The difference for being a mage is you can make a custom low-mana drain health with a radius of about 5 feet that only lasts a half second, but drains more health than most living creatures spawn with, killing them within that half second. That's how I beat the Arena in a single afternoon.
Every lich in my mage play through had spell reflect. Combine that with me doing a glass cannon build meant that a good 50% of the time I would shoot a spell at them only to immediately die from my own spell. I got tired of exploring ruins pretty fast
Yeah one thing I remember doing to fix casters like Mankar and Lich. I opted to replace their old staff weapons with a mod that made them into off hand shield with a minor enchantment to absorb magic or physical attacks. I also gave them a enchanted weapon that shared the Dremora one handed weapons enchantments. Nothing like a fight with a Lich who's armed with an enchanted Elven staff in one hand and an Elven mace enchanted with "Oblivion's Caress" or "Nearness of Evil" that is throwing fire and thunder spells at you..
I almost forgot about the dog sized rats in Oblivion. Mainly because of the Skeevers in Skyrim. Which brings up a question I've always had, what's the difference between the giant rats in Cyrodil and the skeevers of Skyrim? The only noticeable difference to me is that skeevers look a slightly thinner and a bit more menacing. Also the sound skeevers make sound more like an angry yorkshire terrier than a rat.
Honestly not surprised the Gatekeeper won the contest trying to beat him without poisons or bone arrows and with the difficulty at or above average should be a 100 gamerscore achievement
Hell yeah. I have been binging elder scrolls again lately. I modded the hell out of morrowind, oblivion, and skyrim. I was super happy with how all of them turned out especially morrowind. It was impressive and would suffice until skywind released. Then come to find out the mod morroblivion which I thought was abandoned actually released in its entirety. So I downloaded that too though I plan on playing the OG version as well. I will say that it shocks me that nobody has really tried to create a voice over mod for morroblivion. I know there are a few computer generated voices but for real one would think they skywind team would lend out their voice lines for morrowind. I have half a mind to start making the mod myself. I don’t even expect everybody to have voiced dialogue much like the OG morrowind. There are mods that add in cut dialogue for characters like yagrum and the tribunal. So I would think that those would be converted in some way. If anybody wants to help me create a mod for voiced dialogue for main characters in morroblivion Hit me up. I am an audio engineering major and am currently taking classes for game development so it would be a cool project to take up. Obviously skywind will release eventually but who knows when and if nothing else it would be a fun prroject to undertake.
As soon as I saw this title, I'm just thinking about painted trolls at some levels. That quest was great at killing my motivation to play and having faith in the games level system.
I loved this .completed it and the add ons . I have friends who are button masher type players who couldnt get very far and that's why I loved it. Then they got Skyrim and seemed to go round killing everyone easy so I never played it
Great job.. love the video. I just have one thing going on with my character that makes this all irrelevant, that being, 100% chameleon. It's some fun stuff. 😁
I just used a enchantment glitch that set my mana to 1250 and my willpower to 500. So I can now cast a spell that is 10x stronger than fingers of the mountain. Suck on that Dagon.

Hands down Jygalag the daedric god of order. Overcoming his curse of madness and returning to order once every so often to re conquer his own land. Where order is absolute and means lifeless crystalline forms, structures perfectly representative of that concept. He could probably conquer Nirn. That is why they have cursed him, since he was way too powerful.
The strongest enemy is my broken heart after Martin dies.
Cool pentagram
@@Tavemanic why did i know that the reply to her comment will be something about her flag
@@rustycheese641 For the record I've got no problem with it, I know it's star of David, just trying to joke around
@@Tavemanic also its an hexagram
Gosh spoilers! XD
I love your enthusiasm Michael! Great video! Can’t wait to start my first play of Oblivion!
I'd love to see one of these videos for Morrowind, then you'd have the entire modern elder scrolls series down. Until TES6 is out of course. You have a lot of time bois
Used to crank my speed up as much as physicallly possible. Also used to chug skooma like water. So yeah....terrain was my strongest enemy. 😂
If I’m not mistaken there used to be a glitch where you could save and load your save the moment you hit punishment point and you could go back to sheogorath and he just only says “oh you survived” and it breaks the quest line and npc
Don’t even need to watch the video to know it’s the Adoring Fan
That troll falling over to it’s death had me dying 😂😂😂
Level scaling in oblivion really was spawned directly from sheogoraths mind ^^
I tended to ignore melee combat all together because it was just a grind feast
There were only 2 ways to play oblivion for me:
1. Only use selective few primary stats to level up and use the rest of them as minors to prevent me from leveling up too high & being willingly "stuck" at a lower level to make the enemies manageable
2. Use hand-crafted spells to deal enough damage to even the most beefed up enemies:
I really loved the combination out of increase weakness to fire, ice, lightning & health damage of 100% for 10 seconds and follow it up with a combined spell of damage 20 for 3 sec (not so sure on that combination anymore ^^) of each with fire, ice, lightning & damage health
The over time effect made the spells quite cheap - especially the weakness to one - (actually dirt cheap for the massive amounts of damage you can inflict!) and made even the worst enemy melt before you
And you never even needed to cheese any mechanic or buff up your equipment to handle these spells
Just cast these spells in fast order and you can kill most enemies with one weakness and 2 damage spells
You just need to remember the time limit of the weakness spell
Follow it up with other spells and oblivion is really a pleasent experience despite the grind
Oh, how i loved these times 😍
I did similar in a way, but focused on Restoration instead of Destruction. I used short-duration high-bonus fortification spells. My speed-fortifying custom spell was a great way to speed things up while also raising my restoration skill.
Honestly the only enemy i have issuse with is goblin warlords most enemies i have no issues but goblin warlords with there retarded high health pool is disgusting they dont do alot of damage they just take forever to kill even with sneak attack and poisons i wish they never existed they feel out of place
if you combo weakness to magic, weakness to frost, frost damage, then fortify intelligence and magicka for like 2 seconds. long enough to get the next cast off. your magicka total is boosted then drops and boosts again which for some reason actually recovers a portion of your magicka letting you continue to cast, so long as you keep casting. as soon as you stop the effect runs out and you'll be empty.
the spell effect itself weakens the enemy to magic meaning the next cast's weakness effects will be boosted, this compounds every cast and doubles the effect again due to the added weakness to element. after the third cast you'll do somewhere in the neighborhood of a million damage which is the highest number oblivion could handle a creatures health being set to in my testing.
I was getting bored, saw a new fudgeMuppet vid
no longer bored
Those painting trolls were the bane of my existence. Was very glad when I finished that quest
That mudcrab that hangs around the sewer exit at the start of the game because it always stops me from fast travelling
this might just be the most underrated video on the channel, and there are a lot of those
Ya'know Umbra's Ebony Armor is leveled. Prior to the level you can actually get Ebony Armor, it's equivalent to Orcish.
depression is the strongest enemy
You good bro?😂
idk xD
Been there buddy, stay strong.
Stay strong, warrior. Lord Sheogorath bless your cheese.
Literally any goblin is the strongest enemy. Even at Level 54 and all stats maxxed out, they still take longer to kill than any boss.
Mehrunes Dagon melting into a pool of soup is not something I knew I needed to see today.
Strongest enemy in Skyrim with the largest disadvantage among every enemy: slaughterfish
Unlike oblivion you are unable to attack in water leaving you completely open to being attacked by such a fast enemy.
While the slaughterfish doesn’t deal a lot of damage they will pose more of a threat in large numbers which puts you at a critically dangerous disadvantage.
While in water you are unable to use weapons, magic, and shouts so your only chance of survival is to use friendly NPC’s or to swim away to get onto land.
When I was a kid I started a fight I couldn´t finish with Umbra. I tried to run away from her, I escaped the dungeon but she followed me even underwater all the way to imperial city. In the city she got a bunch of npc attacking her and when they were finished there were just corpses laying around everywhere. I ran away but some random old ladies just charged to attack.
I literally started a new Oblivion playthrough yesterday. Now I've got a video that tells me about all the enemies I don't want to find at my low level.
FudgeMuppet: Ok it's time for our epic and cinematic intro for our video with all these dead enemies around us. Man we work really hard to set this all up for this epic momen-
Wild Mage: -flings a fire spell ruining the perfect intro-
Man and Mer. Because our feuds never subsided, only temporarily stop.
Had to pop in and say that the Thumbnail is epic!
I’ve been waiting so long for this video
Goddamn, I miss this game.
@coolaccountname Bad idea. Gamepass is incompatible with Mo2, so you will either be stuck unable to mod the game, or settle for an inferior manager.
Steam Summer sale, homie
@coolaccountname Fair enough. Just a warning.
try playing it again but with loverslab mods installed😏
Not the intro I was expecting
Sheogorath is one scary daedra. The top ranks are almost all from the shivering isles. And even in morrowind, the golden saints were very hard to fight.
Good thing he doesn't invade Tamriel
In a way, Sheo has all of Tamriel. Everyone just sobers up away from madness.
Its the rat Marshal! You are lucky you caught him without his gun!
Making oblivion videos in 2021
I salute you
i never knew you could soul trap jyggalag
Its a shame I lost my oldest save file before I was even done with the Shivering Isles DLC, so I cant really go fight those enemies.
I think my character then was pure melee, but right now I started a templar with melee but also restoration/buff spells. Dunno if I will play the entire game again but I at least wanna try beating the top three enemies in this list.
Great video. I m waiting for the strongest enemy in Skyrim and in Online
The difference for being a mage is you can make a custom low-mana drain health with a radius of about 5 feet that only lasts a half second, but drains more health than most living creatures spawn with, killing them within that half second. That's how I beat the Arena in a single afternoon.
Morrowind be like, you walk into some random cave an hour into your first playthrough and some dude charges you with a Daedric Dai-Katana.
Every lich in my mage play through had spell reflect. Combine that with me doing a glass cannon build meant that a good 50% of the time I would shoot a spell at them only to immediately die from my own spell. I got tired of exploring ruins pretty fast
Just use dispel....
@@yendorthegrand4078 it will block spell reflect? I didn’t know that…
Yeah one thing I remember doing to fix casters like Mankar and Lich. I opted to replace their old staff weapons with a mod that made them into off hand shield with a minor enchantment to absorb magic or physical attacks. I also gave them a enchanted weapon that shared the Dremora one handed weapons enchantments. Nothing like a fight with a Lich who's armed with an enchanted Elven staff in one hand and an Elven mace enchanted with "Oblivion's Caress" or "Nearness of Evil" that is throwing fire and thunder spells at you..
I remember the max level goblins whipping my ass with frequency and breaking my gear lol.
The most difficult fight I remember was the pc mirror fight in shivering isles. Having to take on my optimized reflection was a terrifying surprise
was waiting for this thank you!
I almost forgot about the dog sized rats in Oblivion. Mainly because of the Skeevers in Skyrim.
Which brings up a question I've always had, what's the difference between the giant rats in Cyrodil and the skeevers of Skyrim? The only noticeable difference to me is that skeevers look a slightly thinner and a bit more menacing. Also the sound skeevers make sound more like an angry yorkshire terrier than a rat.
Man you guys upload at a terrible time for Australia or at least the east coast. Great video as always though.
Honestly not surprised the Gatekeeper won the contest trying to beat him without poisons or bone arrows and with the difficulty at or above average should be a 100 gamerscore achievement
The shadow of yourself in The Shivering Isles gave me soooo much trouble actually kind of surprised it didn't make it on to the list tbh.
More videos like this please!!! Well done!
Fudgemuppet: I can't test every enemy because the video would just be way too long
Camel: Hold my beer..
Hell yeah. I have been binging elder scrolls again lately. I modded the hell out of morrowind, oblivion, and skyrim. I was super happy with how all of them turned out especially morrowind. It was impressive and would suffice until skywind released. Then come to find out the mod morroblivion which I thought was abandoned actually released in its entirety. So I downloaded that too though I plan on playing the OG version as well. I will say that it shocks me that nobody has really tried to create a voice over mod for morroblivion. I know there are a few computer generated voices but for real one would think they skywind team would lend out their voice lines for morrowind. I have half a mind to start making the mod myself. I don’t even expect everybody to have voiced dialogue much like the OG morrowind. There are mods that add in cut dialogue for characters like yagrum and the tribunal. So I would think that those would be converted in some way. If anybody wants to help me create a mod for voiced dialogue for main characters in morroblivion Hit me up. I am an audio engineering major and am currently taking classes for game development so it would be a cool project to take up. Obviously skywind will release eventually but who knows when and if nothing else it would be a fun prroject to undertake.
31:20 "Giant Slaughterfish used splash!"
Why does this man always make me want to play these games again
As soon as I saw this title, I'm just thinking about painted trolls at some levels. That quest was great at killing my motivation to play and having faith in the games level system.
EASILY my favorite channel 💯
I like how bears here struggle with range, but fallout 3 bears are near impossible to dodge.
You forgot about Skull of Corruption. With this you can permanently clone your self and make him your enemy.
It's obviously the arena combatants who fucking teleport behind you, then you turn around and boom they're in front of you. Pissed me off to no end
Who is the strongest enemy in oblivion?
Fudge Muppet: 'The Gatekeeper'
Every other creature: 'Fudge Muppet'
The strongest enemy in oblivion was the framerate drop before a battle.
I loved this .completed it and the add ons . I have friends who are button masher type players who couldnt get very far and that's why I loved it. Then they got Skyrim and seemed to go round killing everyone easy so I never played it
Great job.. love the video.
I just have one thing going on with my character that makes this all irrelevant, that being, 100% chameleon. It's some fun stuff. 😁
I love rewatching this! 💙
I always thought it was the shadow clone of yourself that you fight in the shivering isles.
I just used a enchantment glitch that set my mana to 1250 and my willpower to 500. So I can now cast a spell that is 10x stronger than fingers of the mountain. Suck on that Dagon.
Strongest enemy in Oblivion: That one annoying Skeleton Champion who just won’t die.
