I am level 16 Battlemage now

I am using strafe and withdraw back throwing in the process some fireball and some destruction magic

sometimes when their life is drained enough i just get close and finish them with a sword and block with a shield so i do not lose to much life
just to get some Blade or Blunt weapon experience points

I can heal after that with Restoration magic

The bears can be tough, first time I met a mountain lion I got killed in about two hits...wasn't expecting it to be so tough!

topbob · Apr 14, 2006, 10:37 AM

I have 104 speed so I can outrun anything that I wasn't aiming for

Dyre Straits · Apr 14, 2006, 01:16 PM

My tactic is to find a tall rock and climb onto it.

I try to find one that has a tall 'front side' and I use my summons commands to summon scamp and zombie. I can cast flames, too. But, once their life is drained enough, I use a blade on them. The trick is to find a rock that the bears and other creatures can't climb so well. If you can keep them focused on your summons creatures they won't be coming after you so much.

If you think the bears are something, wait till you see a Minotaur.

Have you found the Robbers Glen Cave? I can't recall if a Glass Sword was among the immense treasures found, but, there are some really nice things there.

Also, I do think there was a Glass Sword in the Gutted Mine.

Dark Lord · Apr 14, 2006, 01:55 PM

i find every other guy has a glass sword and im level 22, been seeing glass swords for the last 3-4 levels now. bout the time i hit level 21, full glass armor started poping up.

of for the bears, i just summon a deadroth and he takes care of them no problem. black bears atleast. brown bears take a bit more work.

I don't have a problem handling the little black bears myself. It's the big brown ones that I was talking about.

Head over to Azura's Shrine. The Gutted Mine is part of the quest you do for her. You can find her shrine North East of the mine.

meh....i did the gutted mine quest and they only had glass daggers, enchanted bows and arrows, glass warhammer, ebony warhammer....but no glass sword

Al_Vampyre · Apr 15, 2006, 04:18 AM

Its definitely a level thing, I got a couple of glass swords in Anvil doing the fighters guild quest (the second one). You'll probably find that after you next level up they'll be everywhere!!

Dyre Straits · Apr 15, 2006, 04:59 AM

I'm now at Level 24 and I'm finding glass everything. Even in the cave to the West/Southwest of Imperial City. All those bandits were wearing at least one thing of glass.

Not only a level thing, but it also has to do with the characters class, and generally, a lot of things are just random drops. While those places that Dyre mentioned before in his earlier post are good to get the items that, it doesn't necessarily mean you will get them. As mentioned, the higher your level, the higher the characters you face, and the better the equipment they carry.

Lowfat · Apr 15, 2006, 09:05 AM

Bears are TOUGH. I am a level 27 fighter. full glass armor, and a weapon that does close to 50 damage and i still have a hard time. If there is another creature near by, I will not make it.

The_Neon_Cowboy · Apr 15, 2006, 12:32 PM

don't get hit, the end....

te easy way? Use some summon spells, the more powerfull the better
then run like a school girl when it expries if the bear is stil alive well
summon another, repeat

I got board an decided to take on a dozen gards and lived to tell the tail

thier lillte match for by bound armor, and summoned helper... the key is let you summoned ceature do the figting / take the damage...

Dark Lord · Apr 15, 2006, 12:50 PM

for the most part i just use deadroths. they seem to work well on most things.

now that im level 23, im starting to find deadric armor. its about the same defense as ebony, but its easily half hte weight.

Partizan · Apr 15, 2006, 12:59 PM

I am level 33 custom class "adventurer". Using glass armor, glass shield and a daedra sword. I need 10 hits and brown bear is dead. I got blade skill 100 though.

You pretty much use the same tactic I do. I'm up to Master Conjuration and my Destruction skill is pretty high as well. I'm glad you can cast summons as you beat a trail AWAY from enemies.

riles9262 · Apr 15, 2006, 01:42 PM

Me as well...having summons is the easiest way to win fights, especially if there's nothing to climb up to give you the height advantage. For now, i just use zombies and scamps, but my (new) guy is only level 5.

I have the pleasure of 2 games going, one with a theif/marksman wood elf, the other a big burly stinky orc, who weilds blunt weapons nicely and has good conjuration/destruction/alteration magic to boot

I just picked up a Summon Daedroth spell last night. That'll be a good addition to my other summons.

OmegaRED · Apr 15, 2006, 01:58 PM

I'm lvl 20 warrior and never had a problem killing the bears. Just backup when he swipes at you then get a few hits in. Don't even try to block. They go down really quick with Umbra.

What is the best shield and armor you guys gave used? I finished the main quest with the Tower of 9 and now use the Imperial Dragon Armor plus a Draemora Shield thats 19hp. I don't know which one to keep right now the weaker armor that has magic or the heavy armor with no magic.

ka713 · Apr 17, 2006, 10:22 AM

woot just picked up full glass armour without helmet and daedra swords =] lvl 20
