Against bogeymen, I usually try to bite off their lower bodies.
Yummy.

After I forcibly separate all of their lower bodies, I gather up the parts so I get an impressive smoke cloud next time I arrive somewhere.

Biting necks is surprisingly effective. WOLF MODE ACTIVATE!

I always train my sneaking and throwing up to par then assasinate enemies until I'm legendary enough to have a small army with me.

one of my friends told me that he puts only a little points into weapon and none in shield, and tons into dodging so he can't get hit.

I bite the weapon hand, then shake a few times till they drop their weapon. Then I go for the head.

I can't figure out how to shake people after biting, or how to do wrestling moves.

You just move in their direction right after biting and latching on. It always works, at least for me.
Wrestling moves are made though A > Enter (aim attack/wrestle switch). Another way is to change your combat preference to 'Close combat'. That's pretty much it.

This is my recipe for success for unarmed characters

1: Grab the enemies weapon

2: Disarm enemy

3: Throw weapon at enemy

4: Disable legs of enemy

5: Strangle enemy

6: ? ? ?

7: Profit

1-Throw things at enemy with hit and run tactics, hope i damage him enough

2-Engage him with main weapon. Try to cut or break a leg or a weapon arm to cripple him.

3-Wrestle, neck lift and strangle to death

found my new fav!

1. Kill enemy #1

2. pick up body of enemy #1

3. THROW body of enemy #1 at enemy #2

4. pick up body #1

5. proceed to beat #2 with #1...

repeat steps 3-5 as needed to kill everything.

I use an axe.

First, hack off opponents arms so they cannot make efficient offensive actions.

If they are not unconscious yet, smash their teeth out with a blunt attack to stop them from biting.

If they are not unconscious after this, I then remove their legs.

If they are still alive after all that limb-removal, I behead them.

If they fall unconscious any time during those steps, I simply wrestle away any of their equipment that I want and leave them to bleed out.

If I do happen to find one of these foes that I left to die, alive and well later in my travels, I do the same thing, but this time I go finger by finger or toe by toe.

If that person or creature is only a torso and a head, yet they are still alive, I gouge out their eyes, cut out their guts, then use said guts to strangle them to death.

Not the most efficient, but by far the most amusing.

if they were to be just a head and torso and DIDN'T bleed out...I'd leave them be, they deserve it!
