Managed to get close enough to spawn a Fire Atronach right in front of the pedastals the gems were on. Naturally it resisted the fire damage, but the blast blew the gems off.

It would do poorly without the heavy armor unarmed damage bonus.
There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

Gloves of the Pugilist, its light armor that gives you +10 damage for unarmed strikes
Going Khajiit gives you a standard +15, and then with Iron Fist (Heavy Armor) you get another +26 (at least, biggest gloves I've found at lvl 14), for a total of 41 Damage per strike.
Nice? Nice.
But there is no upgrade tree, there are no Power Attacks, No Upgrades, and you can't enchant or poison gloves.
I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.
So has anyone else noticed that magic is a very potent way of killing things ? My Argonian mage can take down Trolls like they were a bandit outlaw, compared to my first character at the same level found it near imposible to do !
Now have sneak 100 and can finally take off the jester hat. It was annoying how good it was and how dumb it looked. Btw if you let cicero live he becomes a follower/companion style dude.
Having sneak 100 is kinda easy mode btw. I can stealth roll around at nearly running speed and one hit a giant, from the front. I also havent fought a dwarf centurion or Falmer (any rank) 'properly' yet, and i've killed 4 of the former and 50+ of the latter.
My light armour is around 55 and my One handed 80 my lock picking is 55 but i haven't spent a single perk on it. I can kill a 'dragon' on my own but a 'blood dragon' absolutely ruins me.
I am gonna probably redo the game with a warrior. I am also probs gonna turn the difficulty down and enjoy the game on my second character, as i get the distinct impression a straight warrior is pad crushingly difficult on normal+.
Do you guys often use the companions/housecarls/adoring fans much? All of mine have been 'Wait here' from the off.
Have been denying myself any Faqs/wikis as i want to discover everything myself.

Haven't run into this yet. Mind you, I've only done the High Hrothgar and then went exploring for a very long time, but I haven't had a problem slaying dragons or anything.
I am a straight sword and board character, using Shouts as my magic (Luckily, I found a 20% Shout Recharge Rate amulet right off the bat), and then using a Bow for Flying Dragons.
I've killed five dragons as of yet. First one was the scripted battle outside of White Run, second one was also outside of Whiterun, but that one flew into three Giants and Four Mammoths, so I don't count that one. Second one attacked me in the first town do you go to, so I had the Guards help on that one, so it don't count either. Third, fourth, and fifth ones I tracked down and put Axe to Face.
I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.
Why do people find blood dragons difficult? I've killed about 5 so far and never come close to dying...

God, I love when I find a Blood Dragon. It's like a vacation.
Even Frost Dragons aren't that bad.
These Ancient ones are ripping me a new one, though.

I've only encountered one blood dragon thus far, and it was fairly simple because I was in a town, and just had to hide next to a building when it flamed, and then pop out and electrocute it. In the middle of nowhere though, I could see it being an issue.

Waiting for my shill money from Spiral Arm Studios
whats so special about the Blood Dragons?
They just seem to be regular dragons as far as I can tell. Although I only encountered one and it was the first dragon I saw that wasn't just "a dragon"
Self-proclaimed evil Cat-person. Dues Ex Felines
Cato Sicarius, after force feeding Captain Ventris a copy of the Codex Astartes for having the audacity to play Deathwatch, chokes to death on his own D-baggery after finding Calgar assembling his new Eldar army.
So, I just started the alchemy/enchanting feedback loop.
I'm looking to one-shot Alduin.

I disagree, the helmets actually look decent on Lydia, though you may be specifying the actual player model in which case I haven't seen as I don't currently run a female character.
