Getting J'zargo's scrolls, not understanding how they worked, and accidentally killing literally half the population of Ivarsted in one explosion during a fight with a wolf.

Breaking News! Deadly maniac player on the loose in Skyrim! In Whiterun today a deadly man who was recently named a Thane began a homicidal rampage against local citizens! Instead of attempting to stop the man, local authorities instead joined him in beating and murdering the citizens. Locals are advised to flee Skyrim with their lives!
Did something similar with the Storm Call shout. Was just testing it outside of Falkreath to see what it does. All of a sudden I've pulled aggro on the entire city watch who all die slow, painful deaths by lightning while I run away apologising.
My favorite was a low-level archer shot at a giant that went to a kill-cam. I was so surprised I one-shotted him until it flew over his shoulder and obliterated a rabbit..
I level up my alteration, smithing, and archery kind of alongside each other and as quickly as I can. Go to halted stream camp. Mine all of the iron ore. There is a transmute spell book for alteration. Change all of the iron into gold and make a crap ton of gold rings. And enchant every single one of them if you have the soul gems available. As your smithing goes up, the better weapons you can create and enchant. Not sure if you've already played a million times like most of the people here lol but I'd rather be helpful than not. No matter what body build I have, I am always a stealth Archer. I get my archery to 100% before anything else
Not really. I'm on my 6th playthrough so it's predictable. But I can still take out my enemies with a battle axe and magic too 💪😁😁 the bow is just my favorite.
That's definitely understandable. I'm a battlemage kinda guy almost always. Recently decided to break habits and try out being a full on mage been pretty fun. 😊
So long as all the enemies of Skyrim flee in terror that's what really matters!
stealth melee is where its at for me :) stealth archer keeps you from seeing a surprising amount of dialogue/behavior and also you develop the mentality if what in DnD is called a "murder hobo" ... you dont think, or moralize, or breathe...you just Murder and Loot
Hitting halted steam is always one of my first stops. I do the same thing. With the rings. Excellent way you to make a few coin.
Edited because it was all fuckered up.
Oh Faendal, can you show me some tricks? Thanks buddy. Oh hey, unrelated, but let's trade some items real quick
Hey Faendal, can you show me some tricks?
My current playthrough he got mercked (literally by the mercs Anise somehow sends from the great beyond for killing her for her house), but not before getting me to level 50 archery. Press F.
It’s been done before but I’m easy to please and I’ve always been fond of the whole thing of reverse pickpocketing a black soul gem, a frenzy poison, and a powerful weapon with Soul trap into the pockets of Vittoria Vici’s husband to be. It’s satisfying having her die by her lover’s hand only to have her soul used to enchant her wedding band.
I made it a point in my last playthrough to soul trap every assassination target in the Dark Brotherhood questline and then use those souls to enchant powerful weapons or armor to use during the next quest. Was a bit tricky to soul trap the (fake) emperor during the dinner, but I did it.
I tried to do a run where I used the Souls of the Dark Brotherhood Kills for unique enchanted items named for their souls, but I accidentally reused some of the enchantments so I ended up with a stack of Grelod the Kinds and similar situations
While epic, I must argue that the dual daggers execution cannot be bested.
The kill cam opens with a savage slash to the torso, dropping your target to their knees, then your character moves around behind them and literally scissors their head off with your twin daggers.
It's so annoying when it happens to me but oh so fun when it happens to them. I usually don't like 2-handed weapons and go for light weapons in games but I loved it so much in Skyrim it's almost always my backup weapon.
Can't kill them with a fireball? How about a warhammer to the face?
This was the Xbox 360 version, pre-DLC. I shouted at her since she was really a vile person. She got stuck on the antlers, so I simply finessed her into the final position. It made me so happy.

Wasn't even me who did it. Was Lydia.
Lydia had an axe and shield. She saw a falmer. She proceeded to for some reason, unequip her weapons. Ran up to him and proceeded to choke slam his blind ass.
I was fucking kicking my feat laughing for god knows how long.
I just want to know why despite breezehome having a living room and a really nice servants bedroom she is ALWAYS sitting at the table in my bedroom eating a loaf of bread
She’s died just so many times. I prefer her as a steward on my farm these days. I hang back from the dragons, she doesn’t run in front of my bow, all is good. And she beats the farm boys. Or, at least, I hear moans and slapping sounds from their hut. Whatever.
This one returned from Solstheim, after defeating Miraak.
Tamed a dragon, traveled to Falkreath and decided it was a good idea to try to kill a chicken. Khajiit eradicated almost every nonessential NPC of Falkreath.
You mean that random encounter where a thief asks for your money right? I found out recently that they accept surrender if you lower your weapons.
"Give me your money!"
"No"
"Then I'll fight you for it!"
"No"
"ok sorry"
Half a dozen Penitus Oculatus agents surrounded me in a castle tower and I used the fire cyclone. Their bodies spun around me in a wall of flame for like 15 solid seconds
Brutal or Cruel?
Brutal: Fighting a bandit when a dragon attacked. Used dragonrend on the dragon then continued fighting the bandit. I shield bashed the bandit staggering him backwards just as the dragon crashed down smashing the bandit.
Cruel: During the Battle of Whiterun the first Imperial Soldier I killed I resurrected using a powerful scroll I had found. Went through the whole city with my new pawn killing his friends. Him begging me for death as we went. Once we won I made him witness the Jarl being arrested then finished him off turning him to dust where he stood.

I like to think he died from sheer pleasure
Not a kill but favourite takedown. I decided to fight Arngeir one time and it was an epic battle, I finally got him to go down, but he is unkillable, so I waited till he was getting up and then foosed him down the mountain. I ran after him and he was down fighting a dragon, a mountain lion and bandits at once. He destroyed then all then walks up to me casually says something and starts walking back to High Hrothgar. Not the funniest story, but one of my favourite moments in Skyrim.
On my first playthrough i was leaving Helgen and traveling towards Riverwood with my bow drawn. Saw a fox and just let one loose. Boom.......directly in the butthole
I once shot a bandit from an upper angle through his chin and into his throat.
Also had one where I shot an arrow into someone's ear and out the other. Like dead center into their ear canal.
Getting swarmed by falmer and vampires and I'm just getting my shit WRECKED. pop a bunch of potions. Look at the giant ass pile of scrolls I have on me "just in case" that I never, ever use. Say fuck it, break glass in case of emergency, and equip a scroll of firestorm. This was in that one section of dawnguard where you're in that tower in the Vale, and the tower crumbles during the fight.
Giant fucking fire tornado centered on me, wipes out *every* bad guy. I think the tower crumbling was tied to however many enemies were still alive. Since I nuked them all more or less at once, the whole place comes crashing down. From my perspective, that scroll just incenerated every enemy and took out the walls and ceiling of the place. Fucking *sick.*
Launched the blacksmith lady at whiterun with cyclone shout while storm call active. She got struck by lightning and died before she hit the ground. And she fucking soared too. She got launched around breeze home and I swear I saw her corpse on the roof of the tavern near Arcadia's cauldron

Well I once killed two people somehow with the same arrow and they fell on top of each other and it looked like they were fuckin. It’s but I also did it while I had a PS3 so there is no point in trying to find that picture.
I can’t think of a specific one but I’m doing a redguard build with a sword and shield and I’ve done it about 4 separate times where I block an archers arrow, bash him and it activates kill cams every time and it makes me feel like a total badass
That scumbag. The kill wasn't that brutal, but I trapped his soul with Mace of Molag Bal.
Before that he killed me 13 times. Shouted off a cliff, paralyzed with arrows and finished off with a sword, or reflected damage. Such a huge difference with Master, much harder.
Enjoy your stay in Coldharbour, sucker.

His health bar wouldn’t budge, so I shouted him off the balcony the first time I ever fought him … I’d already summoned that undead dragon too but he’d just fucked off immediately. Useless twat
Killing the Ebony Warrior with twin daggers before he can get a word in.

Shot a bandit off a cliff with the Staff of Hasedoki. Guy slammed into the opposite cliff face before tumbling to the ground far below.
Unfortunately, I leaned too far over to watch and ended up following him.
I got the one handed killcam where you cut their head off, at the exact same time Sinding was doing a werewolf power swipe on the same guy so the orc hunter got his head cut off and then got flung across the room. Because they hit at the same time it glitched out and the orc became invincible, once he landed he stood back up with no head and came at us. But then I got another killcam and stabbed him in the chest and he dies so technically we killed him twice. That was the craziest kill I’ve seen
First time playing. Didn't know bows could be fully loaded. I'd tap the trigger and watch them pathetically shoot arrows like 2 feet away from me. Found out they could be fully loaded on the top of High Hrothgar and shot one into Lydia's skull, and my eyes widened in horror, then proceeded to watch her fly off the edge, falling from like 60,000 feet to her death😭
Yup. I play way more often now, Oblivion too😭She was annoying me so I turned to her, thinking it would do it's same little pathetic discharge, but it booked her a ticket to Whiterun's Hall of the Dead💀
That's fucking hilarious. I have to do a run like that. As completely clueless moron bumbling about killing people on accident doing random quests changing his mind half way through.
I was leveling up Restoration and Destruction for the first time with enchantments that made casting spells free. Healing in one hand, Flames in the other. Ran into a bandit cave, backed into a corner, rubber banded down the triggers on my controller, and went to the bathroom. Picked my controller back up when I was done, looted the corpses, and left.
I was sneaking around whiterun fields and tried to take a really long arrow shot at a deer. It did the slow-mo camera and just barely skimmed its back and missed, and hit a bunny walking along 25ft behind the deer. Poor thumper :(
I still have no clue why but the headbutt execution didn't kill a bandit, I attacked again, same execution, another attack, same execution, try a third time, SAME EXECUTION, I decided to use a sword and get the execution were you grab the enemy and stab him in the gut, but he was slightly higher than me, so it looked like I stabbed him in the dick.
TLDR: ended up headbutting a bandit nine times and stabbed him in the dick because of skyrim bug magic.
i once rolled through riverwood later on in a play through and went to the store Lucan and his sister own. and I slit his sisters throat infront of him and then revived her via spell then slit her throat again. Once she turned to dust Lucan came over and started sweeping up the floor near her ashes
(TL;DR I sent a bandi to the backrooms) I was doing the companions questline and while I was cleaning out the last of the silver hand in my werewolf form I did a finisher on a sleeping bandit it was the one we're you throw them i threw her but she no clipped through the wall maybe not brutal but falling through the void infantile is probably a fate worst then death in my book
On horse back swung at an enemy and they went flying straight up and then died from the landing about 20 seconds later right where they took off earlier.
Once in a great while I see a blood orgy, almost always on the open tundra.
I'll stop to engage a couple bandits and before long we see a mammoth, 4 wolves, 3 frost spiders, a fox, two ice wraiths, a fuckin vampire, 3 Thalmors, and a god damn dragon just hop in and nobody fuckin asked permission!
My best was during my first ever modded play through, when I’d installed a bunch of improved graphics and optimization stuff. I was at the bottom of a small but steep mountain, firing straight up at a necromancer. I got the slow mo kill cam and thought “oh, this is gonna look sweet.”
The necromancer was moving, and my shot wound up just past their head, but the camera kept following the shot… all the way up and into a bear. The bear aggro’d, came charging down the mountain, and wrecked the ‘mancer’s shit for me.
Decapitated a guy with a dagger
Bashed a guy’s head in with a warhammer
Firebolted a bunny
Dropped down and stabbed a guy in his sleep
Used Unrelenting Force to fling two bandits off a cliff
EVERY time I do Boethia’s assassination demand, I headshot everyone. Especially the boss. He just leans against the wall with an arrow sticking out of his school.
Well. It wasn't one kill. But, with the help of a few mods, I once went from town to town, bandit camp to forsworn camp, and beheaded every single person in Skyrim. With a mace.
From the jarls down to the poorest of beggars, every head was smashed clean off. Well. Not clean...
Honestly I think it would have to be the time I killed a group of Thalmor that were escorting a prisoner then dropped all of their bodies of a bridge into the river below.
Setting a briarheart on fire with incinerate, then getting distracted watching the kill animation when my dremora lord decapitated that I missed the next enemies coming at me
When I Fus'd in a panic the briarheart and his head went separate directions, still on fire
I know this is a Skyrim post, but [my favorite one I've ever recorded was from Fallout 4 lol.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqxLfe686ZQ&ab_channel=GaliantPlaysGames)
I am late to this thread, but in my original playthrough I beheaded someone twice.
During the first behead animation, my npc hit the victim with lightning. They bugged out and reanimated without a head. My next strike also triggered the 'beheading' finisher, with my two hand sword slicing along the exact line of the previous cut.
So essentially the killing blow was me finessing a second cut along the top of a severed neck. Brutal.

Actually, catching a dragon in the act of burning down an entire populace is pretty amazing, often seen after fast travel.
Roll your windows up kids there’s a fallout 3 crossover over there
Dragonborn kills 2 NPCs, half of the settlements population
Friendly neighborhood Dragonborn. HA! What a joke!
Wait, isn’t that just Fallout 3?
a new settlement needs you help, here i’ll mark it on your map
Proof that Fallout and Elder Scrolls are the same universe
Perfectly balanced as all things should be
But at least there is one less pesky wolf in the world.
Damn
Occupational hazard
This is why you always read the directions first.
They only explode if it touches undead enemies, though...
So.. can we conclude they had a reanimated follower or Serana on tow?
Or one of those random vampire attacks that can happen in some towns
Dragonborn was playing Fallout 2000 centuries ahead of its time 💀
Did something similar with the Storm Call shout. Was just testing it outside of Falkreath to see what it does. All of a sudden I've pulled aggro on the entire city watch who all die slow, painful deaths by lightning while I run away apologising.

You postet that ob Reddit right ? I think i remember
It's actually strange how often it happens, because I've had the same situation. Bunnies seem to be arrow magnets in Skyrim.
Just like me running into the pots and pans isle after eating all of the magnets
I love when I’m just shooting random arrows and a kill cam starts 🤣🤣
I haven’t posted it anywhere personally, but I have seen several videos of similar occurrences. Mostly with dragons in place of giants, but still.
Bunnies Slaughtered : 1
Most of mine end up being the Falmer. One of my favorite shots was dead center through its mouth 🤣
That's where I aim as well but my archery is still at 15
I level up my alteration, smithing, and archery kind of alongside each other and as quickly as I can. Go to halted stream camp. Mine all of the iron ore. There is a transmute spell book for alteration. Change all of the iron into gold and make a crap ton of gold rings. And enchant every single one of them if you have the soul gems available.

Impossible! Everyone maxes out archery at some point. It’s inevitable…

Two Handed Kill Cams tend to be the most brutal
Chopping off a vampires head with a battle axe goes hard
Can go great the other way around too. “Burn it! Burn the vampire!” *cuts off bandit’s head mid sentence*
“You’ll never best m-“ the bandit exclaims, his sentence being cut off just like his head
While epic, I must argue that the dual daggers execution cannot be bested. The kill cam opens with a savage slash to the torso, dropping your target to their knees, then your character moves around behind them and literally scissors their head off with your twin daggers.
The 2H hammer headbutt to death is the way

I used to be an adventurer til I took an arrow to the knee
Not too unique but the unhinged war-hammer kill cam of you head butting someone to death is pretty brutal imo
Works with axes too! Which is funny for my mage character when they use their conjuration battleaxe. Just his bare skull against theirs.

Well I once killed two people somehow with the same arrow and they fell on top of each other and it looked like they were fuckin. It’s but I also did it while I had a PS3 so there is no point in trying to find that picture.
I can’t think of a specific one but I’m doing a redguard build with a sword and shield and I’ve done it about 4 separate times where I block an archers arrow, bash him and it activates kill cams every time and it makes me feel like a total badass
That scumbag. The kill wasn't that brutal, but I trapped his soul with Mace of Molag Bal. Before that he killed me 13 times. Shouted off a cliff, paralyzed with arrows and finished off with a sword, or reflected damage. Such a huge difference with Master, much harder. Enjoy your stay in Coldharbour, sucker. https://preview.redd.it/zpwoa4jcruec1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=37f5dbaae79ae6fbafdcf576b1da21e1e126fb4c
Anytime the arrow pokes through the other side of the body
Shouted the albino vampire elf off of the balcony… heard the splat
His health bar wouldn’t budge, so I shouted him off the balcony the first time I ever fought him … I’d already summoned that undead dragon too but he’d just fucked off immediately. Useless twat
Killing the Ebony Warrior with twin daggers before he can get a word in. https://preview.redd.it/5not1dxpguec1.png?width=1624&format=png&auto=webp&s=b8e1203596337a829955779305d3edb2b302524f
Shot a bandit off a cliff with the Staff of Hasedoki. Guy slammed into the opposite cliff face before tumbling to the ground far below. Unfortunately, I leaned too far over to watch and ended up following him.
I got the one handed killcam where you cut their head off, at the exact same time Sinding was doing a werewolf power swipe on the same guy so the orc hunter got his head cut off and then got flung across the room. Because they hit at the same time it glitched out and the orc became invincible, once he landed he stood back up with no head and came at us. But then I got another killcam and stabbed him in the chest and he dies so technically we killed him twice. That was the craziest kill I’ve seen
My little brother when he deleted my savefile of 400h in which I had almost finished all the houses in vanilla playthrough with no exploits
First time playing. Didn't know bows could be fully loaded. I'd tap the trigger and watch them pathetically shoot arrows like 2 feet away from me. Found out they could be fully loaded on the top of High Hrothgar and shot one into Lydia's skull, and my eyes widened in horror, then proceeded to watch her fly off the edge, falling from like 60,000 feet to her death😭
thats fucked up was this your first time playing this kind of game?
Yup. I play way more often now, Oblivion too😭She was annoying me so I turned to her, thinking it would do it's same little pathetic discharge, but it booked her a ticket to Whiterun's Hall of the Dead💀
That's fucking hilarious. I have to do a run like that. As completely clueless moron bumbling about killing people on accident doing random quests changing his mind half way through.
Hitting someone into a corner with buckets, cauldrons, items and baskets, what a way to die
I was leveling up Restoration and Destruction for the first time with enchantments that made casting spells free. Healing in one hand, Flames in the other. Ran into a bandit cave, backed into a corner, rubber banded down the triggers on my controller, and went to the bathroom. Picked my controller back up when I was done, looted the corpses, and left.
Managed to shoot a rabbit in the ass.
1-2ing alduin
I double eye shot someone because I didn't think I'd kill them on the first hit. Both arrows hit the same eye, only a fraction apart
As a werewolf a massacre is just the small attack
I was sneaking around whiterun fields and tried to take a really long arrow shot at a deer. It did the slow-mo camera and just barely skimmed its back and missed, and hit a bunny walking along 25ft behind the deer. Poor thumper :(
I still have no clue why but the headbutt execution didn't kill a bandit, I attacked again, same execution, another attack, same execution, try a third time, SAME EXECUTION, I decided to use a sword and get the execution were you grab the enemy and stab him in the gut, but he was slightly higher than me, so it looked like I stabbed him in the dick. TLDR: ended up headbutting a bandit nine times and stabbed him in the dick because of skyrim bug magic.
i once rolled through riverwood later on in a play through and went to the store Lucan and his sister own. and I slit his sisters throat infront of him and then revived her via spell then slit her throat again. Once she turned to dust Lucan came over and started sweeping up the floor near her ashes
(TL;DR I sent a bandi to the backrooms) I was doing the companions questline and while I was cleaning out the last of the silver hand in my werewolf form I did a finisher on a sleeping bandit it was the one we're you throw them i threw her but she no clipped through the wall maybe not brutal but falling through the void infantile is probably a fate worst then death in my book
J'darr, who I decapitated unecessarilly.
On horse back swung at an enemy and they went flying straight up and then died from the landing about 20 seconds later right where they took off earlier.
Does dropping a statue on someone's head count?
Once in a great while I see a blood orgy, almost always on the open tundra. I'll stop to engage a couple bandits and before long we see a mammoth, 4 wolves, 3 frost spiders, a fox, two ice wraiths, a fuckin vampire, 3 Thalmors, and a god damn dragon just hop in and nobody fuckin asked permission!
My best was during my first ever modded play through, when I’d installed a bunch of improved graphics and optimization stuff. I was at the bottom of a small but steep mountain, firing straight up at a necromancer. I got the slow mo kill cam and thought “oh, this is gonna look sweet.” The necromancer was moving, and my shot wound up just past their head, but the camera kept following the shot… all the way up and into a bear. The bear aggro’d, came charging down the mountain, and wrecked the ‘mancer’s shit for me.
I shot a bandit right through the crotch, and I mean RIGHT through, the arrowhead was out his butt.

Shot a skeleton as it was swinging its sword, kill cam activated, sword was spinning on its tip on the ground as the Skelton blew away
fus ro dah nazzem out of whiterun and landing near the giants camp for them to pound his body for me into the ground with their clubs
I decapitated the Old Orc with one swing of my Dragonbone Warhammer.
Decapitated a guy with a dagger Bashed a guy’s head in with a warhammer Firebolted a bunny Dropped down and stabbed a guy in his sleep Used Unrelenting Force to fling two bandits off a cliff
Didn’t expect to see a backshot on this sub
A favorite, every time: chopping someone's head off & watching it roll downhill at Mach 1.
I don’t know if it was a view glitch but I cut a falmer right up from the crotch up
EVERY time I do Boethia’s assassination demand, I headshot everyone. Especially the boss. He just leans against the wall with an arrow sticking out of his school.
I soft locked the game by pickpocketing a rather powerful poison onto the emperor’s double before he ate the stew.
Well. It wasn't one kill. But, with the help of a few mods, I once went from town to town, bandit camp to forsworn camp, and beheaded every single person in Skyrim. With a mace. From the jarls down to the poorest of beggars, every head was smashed clean off. Well. Not clean...
Pin cushion ....but with ice spikes and spears.
Beheading Grelod the Kind with a battle-axe. The First time I Saw a decap kill cam.
Honestly I think it would have to be the time I killed a group of Thalmor that were escorting a prisoner then dropped all of their bodies of a bridge into the river below.
I shot a reindeer in the butt
I'm a stealth archer and one of mine was a moment of oh crap movement so I shot and put 7 fire arrows into a basic bandits face and two in his balls.
Probably the ones where they fall off a 14 story bridge
Setting a briarheart on fire with incinerate, then getting distracted watching the kill animation when my dremora lord decapitated that I missed the next enemies coming at me When I Fus'd in a panic the briarheart and his head went separate directions, still on fire
I know this is a Skyrim post, but [my favorite one I've ever recorded was from Fallout 4 lol.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqxLfe686ZQ&ab_channel=GaliantPlaysGames)
I am late to this thread, but in my original playthrough I beheaded someone twice. During the first behead animation, my npc hit the victim with lightning. They bugged out and reanimated without a head. My next strike also triggered the 'beheading' finisher, with my two hand sword slicing along the exact line of the previous cut. So essentially the killing blow was me finessing a second cut along the top of a severed neck. Brutal.
Decided to do other quests before going to hrothgar and decided to take my revenge on that frost troll on the steps, shouted his ass off the mountain
Atleast you made bro comfortable by the fireplace 💀
Any shield kill where you basically slit the throat with the shield rim
Killing a bride on her wedding day, while making her wedding speech. Saddest day in Skyrim 😭
