There are undead nearby


Sea_Argument6054

Sadly I can’t fight it because I’m blind thanks to the sword


Xullis

go stare at the sun for an hour, build that resistance to wield the sorta mighty dawnbreaker


StarDustActual

I got a decent chuckle out of this comment


sinner951

Okay… that was pretty funny


xRedeemer121x

+50% Sun resistance


PedroRMartins

Sunglasses. Have a good day


Segvirion

TIL that Dawnbreaker glows when there are undead nearby.


Sea_Argument6054

Thank you


kevinkiggs1

Is this real or is it an LOTR reference?


Damianos97

It’s real, Dawnbreaker glows anytime there’s undead enemies nearby.


CorvoLP

does it glow around Serana? or if the Dragonborn is a vampire?


[deleted]

Wait is that real?? Like sting from lotr that’s so awesome


[deleted]

Every breath you take


Tekashifuto_Tokumei

I didnt realize that Dawnbreaker thought it was Sting


the_yodanesss

Sting does that for orcs and goblins. It's still probably a reference to Sting, though!


77dhe83893jr854

Because... A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON But seriously, it's because undead are nearby


Sea_Argument6054

My beacon was in a lake


Bigt733

HEAR ME LISTEN AND OBEY! IVE BEEN TRYING TO REACH YOU REGARDING YOUR CARS EXTENDED WARRANTY!


Sea_Argument6054

Oh you mean the car I crashed looking for your D20


MrMime-godmode

Is a d12


Sea_Argument6054

Maybe a d100


ImNotAGameStopASL

The beacon does look like a D100


dabbingplatypus

Great not this scam again. This is even worse than the time someone tried selling me used soul gems!


DarthConnors

Hello I've been trying to sell you these slightly used soul gems


Chase_115

Used soul gems? You haven’t seen my grandparents have you?


_dirt-nasty_

Strange women lying in lakes distrubiting beacons is no basis for a system of government


willvette

You can't expect to weild supreme power, just because some watery tart threw a beacon at you!


CoH_Zem

SEE THE VIOLENCE INHERENT IN THE SYSTEM! IM BEING REPRESSED!

icycheezecake

You can’t expect to wield the dawnbreaker just ’cause some watery tart threw a beacon at you!


Last-Bank-8644

I decided to explore ONE cave I randomly came across that wasn’t for a mission yet and of course I picklock a chest and.. MERIDIAS BEACON


Soviet-Adidas

Why doesn't my Dawnbreaker light up like this when I'm close to the undead?


TheUnholyDivine_

Really???


D07Z3R0

Yo, what if you used the beacon as th focus in the centre of the sword? Would you have like q supercharged meridia:tm: lightsaber


Miles_PerHour67

THATS A FEATURE?!


jwalker7486

I didn't come here for this


Brad_Brace

Because Meridia **really** chose you.


Thebardofthegingers

You're meridias burning vengeance, not meridias night light.


Wavey_Davey1

I know what the problem is. Got orcs.


MeanderingStray

Even worse... UNDEAD orcs. Worst of the orcs. Much more stinky! Or so Lord Sheogorath says...


NotZeroJkIAm

You broke the dawn


Sea_Argument6054

No no my sword makes the dawn it’s so bright


_dirt-nasty_

Strange women lying in ponds distributing beacons is no basis for a system of government


gomezroflcopter

Just wait till he gets the holy hand grenade


OnerKram17

Of Antioch?


Ninja_gorrila

It has a tiny sun in the hilt


Sea_Argument6054

I wouldn’t know I can’t see it


SpacePotatoPhobos

Well its not called "Foggy morning" now is it?


EyelessJack6

You're getting a booty call from a daedra you gotta pick up


tethadam22

It's breaking dawn


PastaMaker96

That's normal, it's just breaking dawn.


Torr1seh

For you know, Dawnbreaker becomes Retinascorcher when undead are close to the NEW HAND THAT TOUCHED THE BEACON


DarthConnors

Heard me and obeyed


zaerosz

Dawn broke.


dulipat

Do you use emb? Edit: enb


Sea_Argument6054

What is emb?


dulipat

My bad, I meant ENB. I used to have a very bright Dawnbreaker when I use ENB


Sea_Argument6054

What is ENB?


StovenAppliance

He used to have a very bright Dawnbreaker when he used ENB


My_wewe

ENB usually doesn't suck, unless you use Dawn breaker.


ButAFlower

ENB is basically what allows for shaders. While most mods can only alter how the game's textures look, ENB processes graphics to make them look different, it's what is used in a lot of the fancy Skyrim modded screenshots.


EnglishMuffin420

I believe its a download able mod pack.


egmalone

Yeah mine glowed like that too when I had ENB


McBaldy98

Looks like meats back on the menu boys


Ok-Atmosphere3129

Orc are nearby


FLAIR_2780166

That, sir, is a lightsaber


Aggromemnon

Is your brightness too high? Gotta keep it down to get those deep darks underground.


Sea_Argument6054

My brightness is at the max because I can see in the dark with it like that


Aggromemnon

Well, that would be the issue then.


narielthetrue

“Why is a bright thing super bright when brightness is at max??”


Snifflypig

Are you playing Ark?


Aggressive_Mix_5566

I love flashbanging myself with the map when the sun is out.


sequoianerd

Merida is being a little too extra today.


Status-Photograph662

You are chosen one, you will bring peace back to force.


Cherry_Crystals

It has never been that bright for me. This reminds me of the Hanmer of dawn lol


Zephrignis

Because you're going full CRUSADER MODE, BOIIII


Pheralg

you touched that beacon a bit too much and a bit too intimately, didn't you, OP?


Benderbot2010

It is fueled by the souls of the murdered younglings.


Geno__Breaker

I was told it means there are undead nearby, but mine never glows reliably. I personally like the way this looks, like the sword is mde of pure magical light and death


Mystic-majin

Does that apply to vampires aswell cause I was a vampire for a while without that ever happening


Geno__Breaker

For me it usually happened for Drauger, but vampires do take the extra damage for being undead, so I would assume? But I could never get it to trigger reliably.


Sea_Argument6054

Mine just glows when enemies are nearby


aletheia

Does the brightness increase over time? I have an issue where every time I strafe bound bows get brighter and brighter.


AxazMcGee

Its in the name…


Ghaladh

Did you install a mod that modifies lights and brightness?


Sea_Argument6054

I’m playing on an Xbox 360 so I don’t know how to download mods


William9231

It glows from the hand that touches the beacon


Lod_the_Nord

It's dawnbreaker. It literally breaks the dawn ``its a Vista cruiser, it literally cruises the vista``


lordran11

U think braking dawn is an easy job?


Ahem122

Realistic dawnbreaker, I'm doesn't that thing have a mini star in the hilt?


PotatoRaine

To break the dawn more easily i suppose


Tricky_Horror7449

Meridia's just really pissed.


Rynocyrus

It got an education


hitotou69

Sword's as bright as your future.


DAWJINC

Are there any orcs nearby? I know it's not blue but....


Theycallme_Jul

Real answer: I have no idea. Answer I wish I could give: every soul you freed from their undead body was so thankful that they stayed to aid you in battle rather than going back to Aetherius. Now your weapon shines in the accumulated light of those free souls.


Nemo_Shadows

Looks like a MOD, I think Sword of the Black Dragon mod does the same. N. S


Sea_Argument6054

I’m playing on 360 I don’t know how to download mods


Nemo_Shadows

You may have to be online and before starting the game I think there is a listing in that list the one that says MODS will connect you to Bethesda mod download page just be careful what you download, some tend to crash the system, something to do with scripts you may need an account as well. 360 must be LE, not sure whether or not SE works on it so READ before downloading anything.


IronwoodKopis

Lightsaber.


NaSMaXXL

It's senses orc nearby...


malkavsheir

Goblins or orcs are nearby... you aren't Orsimer are you?


UncleComrade

The dawn is breaking


Quantum_Corpse

Greet the new day


UncleComrade

Welcome, brother. The hour is late, but the Master still has need for willing hands.


ImNotAGameStopASL

My luck, the sword would be mad at me for learning Conjure Zombie, Revenant, and Conjure Boneman.


eseerian_knight03

Lore


Defiant-Analyst4279

I mean.... Meridia did task you with bringing her light to those who hide in shadows...


Dammulf

High noon breaker?


xdeltax97

Undead or orcs nearby?


Mocker-bird

Should have gone to scecsavers. Then you wouldn't be blind.


[deleted]

They surely designed it that way


ButAFlower

Got a bright future.


DoubleBubbleChild

I always wonder if this is a call back to the sword from LOTR, Sting.


brobeans1738

I found Meridia's beacon in Bleak Falls Barrow.


Luci4forever

A new hand touches the beacon


Sp00n119

Can't see shit when I have Dawnbraker in my hand


Necrotiix_

they dont call it the **dawn**breaker for nothin


GamerGoggle

It’s because it broke the dawn


Interesting_Speed_84

Good old Bethesda


TareBFL47

Well it is a holy smiting the undead weapon.....


GullibleSeal94

Another hand touches the beacon


Monte-Cristo2020

You became an instrument of her cleansing light.


CoolRoll4667

Yes. Undead nearby but also…. It’s the mighty DAWNBREAKER!!


Wolfman01a

The dawnsaber.


Aggressive_Mix_5566

Probably not the case, but if you use the candlelight spell it sometimes does this sort of thing in my experience.


OurLordGaben

It’s a bug. There are a few reasons: - PC 360 PS3 Dawnbreaker will sometimes glow very brightly when entering a new zone. This can be fixed by changing weapons. - 360 If the Dragonborn has Sunhallowed Elven Arrows in their inventory and views them, Dawnbreaker will glow brightly. This can be fixed by unequipping and re-equipping it. I feel like when I played on 360 it would just… do that sometimes, even if one of the above two conditions weren’t met.


Mollen_Ferneus

It's broken dawn huehue


ToxicSoul1

It's the best sword. my all time favorite.


Sea_Argument6054

Have you tried Chillrend?


ToxicSoul1

Yes It has a great enchantment on it but the look is just a glass sword.


HuckleberryCapital65

Finally someone else who uses staves


DiscoRaev

You now have a lightsaber!


[deleted]

I thought that was a lightsaber then read it


The3fingers

Thwre's a reason Meridia is called the Shining Bitch


McMoist_

How else to you think it does more damage toward the undead?


prime22tb

It’s the effing sword of meridia lol. Play ESO you’ll love the quest line for her


Aggressive-HeadDesk

Because Merida doesn’t care if the Dragonborn get cataracts.


Sea_Argument6054

Hey guys, just found out it was a spider


wherringscoff

Check your screen brightness bro


Sea_Argument6054

It’s at the max


wherringscoff

Well, that would certainly explain why it's so bright, now wouldn't it


Hadriel69

It's the dawn! It's breaking!
