@@Nerbit13098 There's also the skeletons in the Hall of the Dead in Whiterun. They're really good for power-grinding Block and Heavy Armor. Just go in, get beaten on for a bit, then use either level-ups to recuperate your lost health or walk back out of the room, and wait on one of the pews to regain your HP. Long grind, but easily-controllable.
I just love the visual of a man just beaning dragons and the thalmor over and over with nothing more than a shield. Chadborn. Fuck weapons I have a shield.
@@gipsydangeramericasmonster9632 someone should make a mod for that so you could play as the shield hero in Skyrim with all the shield effects and powers
I was so intrigued by this challenge that I actually did it myself as well as the Stormcloak campaign. Vegetable soup with the 5x shield bash damage perk even with a normal shield is OP
I was surprised too, honestly. I'd just finished watching his Daedric Artifacts run and the playlist popped up. I was immediately hit with the realization that time has passed.
As soon as I saw the thumbnail I was like "Hey, that's the Targe of the Blooded!" I recognized it despite the fact I have NEVER used it, ever. I always collect it eventually, but my play styles do not utilize Block in any way.
Mine do, but never WITH a shield. I max out my 2h and block trees, for block runner, shield charge and great critical charge. You can get an instant critical, AND blow the victim halfway across the room.
There's a cabin named pinewatch up near your first player owned house in the Falkreath hold that has a mid-level bandit in the basement compared to your level at all times. There's only one bandit and there's a bed that you can stand on and the Bandit will go across to the other side of the room while you heal and whatnot. I found that I can gain a lot of XP sitting down there blocking.
Interesting. It seems bleed works the same as it does in Fallout 4 then, which makes sense. So because you're able to bash multiple times during the bleed duration, the bleed affect actually stacks making it much stronger than intended. Normally you wouldn't be able to bash so frequently and sustain it but the soup allows for that. It's a cheeky, Spiff-level exploit and I love it!
Recently found your videos (Sep 2023) and listening to the difference in your voice here is making me really proud of you for how you’ve progressed as a content creator. Great job, man, you make me want to start my own channel
I did this challenge once. I had at least 100+ of weight in stanima potions and nord mead so I could keep attacking. I also rushed restoration magic to get the perk that restored stanima, and to have a decent ward to block magic.
@@joshuatucker2521 i have. I just forgot to mention that I put this handicap on myself during the challenge because I felt like vegetable soup was too OP for this challenge.
@@totallynotarobot1 true. But usually an iron dagger is 2 weight. Not really too worried on it, not doing an unarmed run right now. Someone challenged me to do a run where I can only put perk points into sneak, speech, pickpocket, alchemy, illusion, and restoration. It is modded so pickpocket technically covers both it and lockpicking, and restoration has poison spells, but it'sbeen fun defining my character as having a toxic touch.
@@fireblast133I know just a suggestion bud and I like the sound of it, with sneak and illusion it's pretty strong, if it don't break the rules of your challenge become a vampire for the buffs to both. I'm currently playing a gray fox build for oblivion nostalgia, modded cause it makes it so much better.
Funny thing is, this strategy is just as viable in the late game too. Assuming you aren't doing a challenge run, you can do this, use the Ebony Mail, poison a weapon and use Fire Cloak and you'll disintegrate any enemy's health bar with massive amounts of damage over time
I like the fact your not using restoration I've been doing that recently for alot of warrior characters so it's nice seeing I'm not the only mental player making playthroughs harder
I did a two handed warrior playthrough who had crappy healing. Man, ending fights with a sliver of health would make those fights so intense. 10/10 would reccomend
Dawg, I found your channel recently and watched your newer stuff and then watched and man there’s a huge difference. You’ve come quite a path man, good job
On normal difficulty, you can beat Skyrim with literally any playstyle - it's very freeing and allows you to really build immersive characters around whatever theme you like. You want to beat Skyrim as a "naked" Khajit with just a fork while wearing a chef's hat ? You certainly can.
Something slightly helpful you could've done was play as an orc to use the berserker power to once a day regenerate stamina twice as fast for a full minute.
Shield 100 with vegetable soup, the Targe, deadly bash, the ability to move normally, and send people flying when running is easily peak skyrim. Pair with destruction magic and you are unstoppable
When Captain America throws his mighty shield, All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield. If he's led to a fight and a duel is due, Then the red and the white and the blue'll come through. When Captain America throws his mighty shield.
And you can’t cock block the steroided jock when he wants to peg his Peggy. In the past she was hot, in the future she is not; Cap cried when she died because he threw his mighty shield to end her so he could bang another thot.
So, about the dragon-shield propulsion. What I think happened is this: You smacked a draugr or two. Dragon lands on draugr, who fit between its head and wing. You smacked draugr again, immobilizing them again and making them stagger back. While draugr recovered, you smacked dragon. Dragon went into recoil animation, which pushes its wings slightly closer to its body. Draugr is there and Skyrim physics says two entities can't intersect. Since there is no space for draugr to move, dragon has to. Dragon is pushed sideways, which dislodges draugr. However, dragon's wing now threatens to intersects with draugr. So draugr moves since now there is space to the side. But now draugr is threatening to intersect with dragon's body, so dragon moves again, on top of the original movement. This once again means the wing is threatening to intersect with draugr. Thus, the cycle repeats with ever increasing momentum as the dragon drags draugr along until they just slide off the cliff. They will keep going like this until draugr escapes.
I don't think I've ever been to that peace council. I'd rather spend a few hours bashing skulls in the Civil War questline than ten minutes getting my brains melted out of mine out of boredom.
9:45 I wasn't as lucky. Delphine didn't pull out her torch at all for me so she just stood at the entrance to the area and softlocked the quest. Reloading didn't work the first time so I turned to the internet and it's misleading advice and spent maybe 40 minutes trying things before a reload fixed it by chance.
The dragon you yeeted with the Draugr? I think I figured out how you did it. You just gave him a really bad concussion so he tripped and flew over trying to balance himself
If Skyrim had real shield bashes they would be way more powerful. A proper shield bash hits with the rim, in a punching motion, and it's basically like having a mace for a fist.
Nafoumi (from Rising of the Shield Hero) “how am I suppose to fight with just a shield” Several anime, movie, and video game characters “do we tell him…… nah”
Wasn't aware that undead could bleed. The UESP says otherwise. Now I can finally do my bleed build (Targe of the Blooded + Axes with 3 points of Hack and Slash).
I remember doing a shield only run. The only boss you can't beat with it is ironically the one you need to kill to get the spellbreaker but otherwise shield's can kill anything in the game in a 1v1. I was slaying giants at like level 9.
Wow Nerbie you might be orange but you've really improved in making videos the editing has gotten a lot better, you sound much more enthusiastic, and the quality has really skyrocketed in such a short period of time, good on ya partner.

I've done unarmed runs in Skyrim, I don't consider it a break of the run if you use a dagger for things like cutting spider webs.
Make sense you're just using it to clear a path not kill an enemy
that's why you carry a woodcutter's axe with you
Use flames spell, means you don' need a dagger and it saves you a little bit of carry weight
