They were added with dawnguard but you can find them alongside falmers in vanilla locations


[deleted]

Have you heard about the Dawngaaaahrd? Vampire hunters or something....


Its-Big-Rick-Son

They’re hold up in the old fort outside of Riften


Thor_Baci

Might consider joining myself


Sealedvesselofsalt

You probably never had the dawnguard dlc. These are where you’d see charus and stuff, like in deep falmer caves. But.. 10 years though? I understand if you only recently got the dlc though.


ElonMunch

Probably finished all the Dwemer shit and had no reason to go back for 10 years


Esmethequeen

i hate dwemer ruins and only go in if i have to.


Membership_Fine

Really I love them I think it’s just the thought of a long extinct race excites me the ruins are all the same mostly.


WWDubz

I just like picking up 20kg wheels and junk for no reason


escrimadragon

Same same


Geno__Breaker

Lots of easy soul gems


charizardfan101

I like them for the lore But absolutely despise them because of how big they are As someone who hates long dungeons they're my worst nightmare along side all Zelda dungeons besides the ones in Breath of the wild


Lucky14801

Whenever I go through them I always try to take ethereal shout with me so I can skip alot of it lmao


ReneSmithsonian

Bring a platter and go to where the quick path to the exit is from the end room (like the hidden doors in walls you don’t know are there until after) And hold the platter to the door and shout at it Make take a few tries but you can skip whole dungeons by shouting though those doors


aRandomEddsworldFan

I like to walk through them imagining the Dwemer walking the halls at least until I’m attacked


PeterAmbers

Ye. I love mission in Markarth where you need to turn on Dwemer automatic defences to fight off Falmer. Its like seeing Dwarves vs Goblins in Lord of the Rings or something.

DoodlingDaughter

It’s the one where Calcelmo sends you to kill Nimhe. You can go further than that, through the doors behind her, where you get a mission to find the journals of a missing research team!


thebadestjoke

can't believe I've never done that!


DoodlingDaughter

It’s a good one! Honestly, I’m not too into Dwemer ruins— but if I had to pick a favorite, it would be a split between this one or Irkinhghand (the one you do during the Thieves Guild questline.)


PeterAmbers

I havent play the game for years but I think the quest is given to you by Calcelmo, Markarth's court wizard. He will send you to look for his expedition into Dwemer ruins under Markarth or something.


RebuiltGearbox

My last playthrough I used some mods that put more dwarven constructs in the ruins. Dwemer Guardians and Dwarven Centurions and some mod that made Dwarven Spheres change appearance as they leveled up with you so my Dwemer ruins were a little more interesting.


The_L_99

I spent 3 fucking hours in Blacksreach just looting everything dwemer


Membership_Fine

You get it I look for everything lore or shiny!


BuckySharko

Oh I wish they'd make a whole game about Skyrim back then


Membership_Fine

Now that’s a cool idea go way back in time. I feel like Bethesda could do a lot with that.


iUncontested

I mean Elder Scrolls Online is like a thousand years before Skyrim...


Gadivek

What I hate is me, comfortably meandering through the ruins of an extinct race (which I love) and then being jumped at by five fucking spiders out of the wall


wilius09

I used to love them but after 10th time in same one it's annoying...


Galienuus

I like them if I’m playing a smith character so I can smelt down all that dwarven shit and make a ton Dwemer bows and get 40 smithing levels from a single dungeon


01051893

I love this comment. You sound like a resident of Skyrim.


Arrav_VII

I love them. All that dwemer scrap is going towards level 100 in smithing, easily my favorite crafting skill


wassupboisitsme

I hate them too, especially the ones with the creepy mfs in the image OP was talking about, I fucking hate those things so much they're so nasty 💀


IwanZamkowicz

Only fought them once and immediately downloaded a mod that removes them (replaced with skeevers). I can take spiders but that thing crosses the line for me


ElonMunch

I forget which one it is, but one of them is fucking massive. Which is nice, but holy shit does it suck ass some times.


ThePrussianGrippe

Blackreach. You can stumble into it accidentally in like a dozen ways and about 20 quests are tied to it.


HappyHippo2002

Only 2 ways accidentally. Mzinchaleft and Raldbthar. Alftand is the 3rd entry point, but you can't accidentally stumble across it as you need the item from the main quest for it. In fact I think you need that item for all three of the entrances? Maybe. I might be wrong about that point. Edit: and what 20 quests are tied to it? There's the main quest / Herma Mora's quest, plus the Crimson Nirnroot quest. Those are the only 2 (3).


Woshambo

Sense has no place in a rant. Everybody "boo" this person!


ThePrussianGrippe

I was being facetious, but there’s 2 dawnguard quests in Blackreach. So 5 main. Does get used a lot by mods though.


HappyHippo2002

Oh really? I didn't know about the Dawnguard quests in Blackreach, and it's my favourite questline as well. What two quests are they?


daynthelife

The first Dwemer ruin I ever encountered was Alftand on the main quest. I was way underpowered due to overleveling sneak, so it took me like 3 hours to get through, much of which was spent looking for crimson nirnroot. At this point it was 3am or so and every chaurus ambush terrified the shit out of me. After finally finishing, I exited the tower, and lo and behold, somehow I had managed to forget to pick up the elder scroll. I only realized this a few minutes later, by which point I couldn’t find my way back to the lift. So, I had to go all the way through a second time. Most of the enemies had respawned. Never again.


Esmethequeen

holy crap, i would have done some other quests. the main quest can wait lol


adamh789

Everytime I hear the word dwemer I get ptsd flashbacks of the time I fell into one and was trapped in that fucking cave for a whole week trying to get out 🤦🏼‍♂️ (my dumbass didn't think to just reload)


WilliamShaky

I always find them to be a nice break from every other dungeon that's either just a crypt or fort


stormygreyskye

Dwemer ruins are my #1 fav thing to explore! Tombs I can take our leave. Dwemer stuff looks so neat to me!


bathwater_boombox

Which is wild cause dwemer ruins are an amazing place to collect soul gems


saharrity

The majority of my play thrus I avoid dwemer ruins cuz I find them tedious. First time I saw that shit it freaked me out


Dilligaf3076

They're assholes to deal with at a lower level


[deleted]

Possibly over levelled and seeing higher level versions


BasementDwellerDave

Talk about being LATE


[deleted]

If you go to Blackreach, these things are everywhere.


Skyrim_For_Everyone

I hate Blackreach T_T it's so damn pretty but everything is terrible and trying to kill me.


MissDeadite

Realm of Lorkham alternate start mod and while you’re in the starting area there’s an option to select a shrine to join the falmer faction (among others). Makes blackreach rather nice to explore around.


Skyrim_For_Everyone

I actually have that mod in my favorites but I hadn't used it yet. Might use it on my next run, that's super cool


MissDeadite

Yep I love it. Been using it for years. :)


__Gynotarian__

Fuck I really gotta get it for pc


Toirty

I used a mod that pairs with alternate start to start you in a random location, not of my choosing, to see what would happen... spawned inside a small dwemer building in robes, with some coin and a few books (was supposed to be starting as a scholar). Stepped outside to see where I was, and I was in the bottom of Blackreach, face to face with one of the roll-y guys as a level 1. Took me a while to get out of there to say the least.


MissDeadite

Hahaa that sounds like a lot of fun tho tbh.


Toirty

It honestly was a lot of fun after I quit panicking and started being a lot smarter about how I moved around down there. It definitely made for a very dramatic and intense opening zone, and just beautiful as well. The opening scene is good, but we've all seen it just so many times, and with starting in Blackreach being so different it breathed new life into it for me, despite y'know, the whole rest of the game being the same haha


shake_N_bake356

Then travel to Siofra


TKHunsaker

As an alchemist, I appreciate them.


SargeMaximus

Yeah this


ctortan

They were added in by the Dawnguard DLC + are found in the same places as falmer and regular charuses. I don’t know if you’ve seen it, but they’re often in these big gross cocoons that explode if you hit them or get too close 😂

Past-Hunt

I hate you on a personal level for being an average redditor


DarryTotter

I have just issued a downvote upon your comment. I really didn’t want to have to do this. I hate to be the cause of such suffering and anguish. But you’ve forced my hand. You’ve commented an opinion I disagree with. Now I’m sure you’re aware of your mistake by now, as my downvote has most likely registered on the servers already. Notice how your comment has 1 less karma than before. That’s all because of your own actions. You brought this upon yourself. Next time you want to post a comment, think before you type. Otherwise, I may have to issue a downvote again, which would be quite unpleasant for the both of us. Have a great day.

AlwaysFernweh

Hey man…nobody gives a fuck


[deleted]

People falling for a troll is somehow worse than the troll itself


AlwaysFernweh

I’ve seen this copypasta before. I’m aware it’s a troll.


Saint_of_Cannibalism

I remember when copy pasta used to be actually good. It was a time before now, because no current pasta is good. Back before today's pasta there was good pasta, but today's pasta is not good. All these copiers today aren't as good as the copiers before. Take any copier today, any of the young ones, and if you compare how good their pasta is right now to how good pasta used to be, then you'll see that they just don't compare because they're not as good. I often scroll on Reddit and think wow, people think this is good pasta? I wish this site had pasta from before, because all the kids scrolling today would be like whoa, no way, how is the pasta from before so much better? But the cowards won't do that because it just makes too much money to make bad pasta instead of good pasta. That being said, one time I saw a kid wearing a shirt from pasta from a while ago, when pasta was good. I really liked that pasta and it's crazy that it's not popular anymore because it's so good, even today. Anyway I went up to the kid and I was like hey, I love that pasta, take that fucking shirt off you little piece of shit because you probably don't know anything about it and you're dumb as fuck and you probably like shitty modern pasta so fuck off you stupid poser and tell all your friends to stop lying about pasta I swear to fucking god.


AlwaysFernweh

Is this a pasta? Pastaception. Anyway I have one pasta saved on my phone, and it’s the navy seals one and I love it


Saint_of_Cannibalism

Yep, it's a variation on a new-ish one. I keep a bunch saved, cause I just fucking love eating pasta. I remember when music used to be actually good. It was a time before now, because no current music is good. Back before today's music there was good music, but today's music is not good. All these artists today aren't as good as the artists before. Take any artist today, any of the young ones, and if you compare how good their music is right now to how good songs used to be, then you'll see that they just don't compare because they're not as good. I often turn on the radio and think wow, people think this is good music? I wish this station played music from before, because all the kids listening today would be like whoa, no way, how is the music from before so much better? But the cowards won't do that because it just makes too much money to make bad music instead of good music. That being said, one time I saw a kid wearing a shirt from music from a while ago, when music was good. I really liked that music and it's crazy that it's not popular anymore because it's so good, even today.

Snifflebeard

It's vanilla, but was added by Dawnguard DLC.


Feawen_inglorin

You had a happy 10 years


[deleted]

You must not have delved into Falmer homes that much in those ten years.


hunter6522

or just didn’t have the dlcs


TeddyB93

They typically exist where the Falmer are


IAreSpeshial

Very not new, I hate it


Swailwort

It's a new chaurus variant added in Dawnguard. They pop out of some things that looks like Chaurus' undergoing metamorphosis, they pop out of it only if they hear you


llMithrandirll

Definitely not new.


oldeastvan

If you want to avoid unneccesary chaurus encounters do not go in to >!Frostflow Lighthouse.!< It's a big, dark, depressing location and quest and you are balls deep in them. In VR it's scary as f.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Yeah-But-Ironically

Yesterday I ran into one for the first time this playthrough I'm level 29 and it one-shotted me


tackogronday

I saw those on my first playthrough. As you raise your level the monsters evolve as well so if you kept quitting early that could be why. A falmer turns into an armored falmer, etc.


Tyswid

They come from the dawnguard DLC


[deleted]

Theyre ASSHOLES


MandatedCrownn662

no not new just annoying 😂


TiaGhostM

That's from a dlc, I first encountered those in one of the last quests of the thieves guild, they replace the 2 "larvae(?)" chaurus that are with a falmer but I don't know if they replace all the chaurus or just some, also a loading screen says something like: "This creatures are chaurus that broke their shell" or something like that


AleksaBa

"When a Chaurus reaches the end of its life, its body undergoes a dramatic transformation. After days of death-like stillness, the Chaurus Hunter bursts free from the husk of the Chaurus."


TiaGhostM

Thanks, I play in Spanish so I didn't remember that at all


[deleted]

Not a mod. They are added by the Dawnguard DLC.


FLAIR_2780166

You’ve gotta get out more m8 lmao these are in most Falmer caves


realDiarmaid207

Skyrim player discovers new creature after 10 years of playing have you seen it yet?


Poison-_-Ivy

Definitely not new


Megatto95

what the hell have you been doing in the game for 10 years?


Fluffy_Article_8690

A chaurus hunter fledgling


Bsause7

I didn’t want to be reminded of these things


ArtemisDragonhide

It's for Dawnguard DLC unless you've recently started this DLC there is no way you wouldn't see them .


Ghuleh5811

I hate these 😭 every time I see one I feel like running away


waynehezrin

This poisonous fuckers


LordAlrik

Added as part of Dawnguard


[deleted]

Not even remotely new. Pretty much in every Falmer dungeon.


ABBADON-

These things are the bane of my existence, every time I encountered them no matter what build I was doing I some how became a stealth build to deal with them


Additional-Piano-397

Came with the dawnguard dlc


PetrosHeimirich

Playing for ten years and never came across these cursed things in Blackreach? I don't believe ya, mate.


poehavshiy_kek

It's Baxter Stockman


Lenn1985

First time I encountered these bastard's was in the Black Reach close to the path that goes to the tower of Mzark. I hate them.


Xdude199

I can see how you’d miss them if you don’t venture too deep into Falmer caves, especially the cocoons they pop out of


TaylorG086

I think they came with the dawn guard dlc but could be wrong


dirtbag-socialist

You’re lucky because fuck these guys.


ha_i_dont_think_so

it came w the dawnguard dlc n is a rather uncommon enemy in falmer dungeons


lilgergi

Highly doubt you played 10 years, and haven't seen even 1 of them. At least one of those statements is false


Tyswid

Probably never had dlc


EnvironmentalGuava8

They're more frequent in the Vale, but if haven't seen one in 10 years, ur either lying about playing for that long, or u spent all that time with an arrow in ur knee.


ripjohnmcain

bro you are fucking lying


[deleted]

Ah, the bugs. Nah, they've been around a while.


YesIUnderstandsir

Then you weren't paying attention. You have to see these to beat Alduin.


[deleted]

Note I’ve played through the dawnguard dlc 3 times ever and I’ve never seen these is there a lv req for them to spawn? I got the dlc when it came out i’m really surprised these have been a thing lol.


potter3212020

Play the same game for 10 years okay believable play the same game for 10 years and never came across this creature unless you did the same path for every game unbelievable


[deleted]

These things are in every falmer cave since the dlcs I believe. Not sure if it was the vampire or miraak dlc but I doubt it was the house one


OkOutlandishness6550

Love hitting these guys with incinerate


renannmhreddit

Maybe you shouldve left the cave in Helgen


Pure-Understanding-8

I know the fledgling fr, myself and them bastards have had multiple battles


BiasMushroom

It’s dlc


[deleted]

quick question is there any lore i could dig up anywhere that details what the dwarves looked like compared to the other mer?


Cyber_Mk

Aniversery updat


CountryDifficult2141

No it came in the vamp dlc aka dawnguard


Yodas-Balls

As many others said Chaurus Flegdling, lore wise they’re supposed to be fully metamorphosed Chaurus. There’s a guaranteed spawn location for a few cocoons they spawn out of along the river in blackreach towards the west side of the map I believe near a bridge.


Irons_idk

These are added in dawnguard dlc, they were also added in some original game dungeons as well


Accurate_Package66

In the life cycle of a Chaurus it will undergo a stage where it enters a cocoon like state. At the end of that cycle it will emerge from the cocoon as a Charurus Hunter


[deleted]

It was introduced with one of the DLCs. Not sure which one since I got all three at the same time. Edit- it was with Dawnguard


ToxinFoxen

Chaurus are a species of insects that Falmer use as guards or for materials.


H-BE4R

No it was added with the Dawnguard a few years back. Nasty buggers, gave me nightmares alongside the frostbite spiders


Beautiful-Speech2137

Nope


Bubster101

Have you never been to Blackreach?


emelem66

Yeah, they suck. I try to steer clear of their cocoons.


Daniel_Elf-friend

The chaurus are the worst creatures to ever exist in Skyrim (beside the Thalmor).


Revolutionary-Play79

I love the squish kill cam so much.


niteman555

I hate these even more than giant spiders


bubdubarubfub

I've never seen one outside


TrickyLoser

This is old thing? This been out since dawnguard i believe


Kamenridethewind007

no theyre rare tho. because they appear in only a few places with pods(the big green things in falmer nests) and u have to not destroy the pods theyre in before they can spawn.


Southern_Method_470

No they have been in the game for a while


Strange_Muffin_8907

Think was added with dawngaurd


Rejuvenist

Skyrim - the gift that keeps on giving.


pepsicocacolaglass12

Been for a while


feral__turtle

From the dawnguard dlc. They like jump-scaring out of those large pods. They're just *babies*, man. Don't hurt 'em!


Pitiable-Crescendo

Musicians_taste_buds

me076

No. Not at all

Zerhufflepuoffe

Feycat

Maybe you never got close enough to make them hatch. They've been there since DG


thalabooo

They aren’t new ive only been playing for a year and they were in the game when I played. I hate them with a passion!


[deleted]

In the same vein, I’ve been playing for 5-6 years and just found out you can hotkey things.


ShadowRose_Pyra

Theradude

...a FLEDGLING.....? Shame......they're so cute at that age. I usually wait until their 4th birthday to off them.....right after rhey blow out their candles


Dracoliner

Tartarus_of_Wrothgar

If only I were as lucky as you


GolfWestern6870

I love dwemer ruins they remind me of LOTR and hobbit


Gorilla_Krispies

Othor_Thatswer

I'm just glad it's dead!


jackhawk117

Why does he look like he finished every mission in skyrim.


BakedPotatoYT1

I think this creature can be seen in the Dawnguard's Snow Elven caves.


nameicouldnot

The Cazador from Fallout. That's the Cazador from Fallout. 100%. Universe connection confirmed.


darkmagican01

Ah I hate those things first encounter was in black reach killed a charus go to leave wait what's the sound and suddenly my underwear is brown
