I've never had any trouble with dragons, except starting out with a mage character.(It turns out, Khajit are awful mages). My level 35 2H/heavy armor character can kill ancient dragons within ten seconds of landing... and I have no magic, frost or fire resist. Then again, I'm playing expert, not master, so that may be an issue.

Well this is somewhat embarassing, but could someone tell me where I'm suppose to find the house I purchased in Whiterun?

Yeah, they don't really point you to it, do they?

It's Breezehome, named after those frighteningly large gaps between the planks, located between the smith and Belethors General Goods Store.

actualy i am kind a jelous. i dont remember when a dragon killed me. actualy i think it never happend. bandits, giants, mamoths, falmers on the other hand did that like bazzilion times.
Just wait for an Elder dragon to shoot flame at you ONCE and kill you if you do not drink potions very quickly. Heavy armor don't do shit against lots of fire.

Like my post above, sometime i ignore the elder dragon and just run around and take care of business. sometimes he will blast me but it never kills me and i can just pull out my single perk healing spell and heal-while-running. Its really silly. I think I need to download the mod that makes dragons tougher.

Also, i dont normally like horses but since Shadowmere wont stop following me everywhere I go I guess I got used to him/her. That damn horse is just about invincible, it never goes into the subdued mode like a normal follower. I will often let Shadowmere just take the tank spot and I sit back and kill with my way-too-overpowered archery setup.  With the 100 skill stealth perk you can drop into stealth even in the middle of combat and score criticals.

More perks from dragon souls? ALready too easy with what I got at level 40, I dont thin I want to break the game any more. I guess I want to up it to Master since I have been on Expert the whole time, but every once in a while I run across something thats tough, and it will take like 50 arrows to kill it.

Doesn't the game give you a compass marker pointing towards your house?

I just realized that if you level smithing fast enough on a light armor character, you can skip the light armor perk since the ultimate set of equipment is going to be dragon scale plus daedric weapons. Sure, it sucks until then, but I can't afford to waste perks.

Dragon scale is a waste of a perk.

Pretty sure it does. There's even a quest that's called "enter your home in xxx"

I remember getting that quest, but the marker goes away after you find your home.

That's if you're going for heavy armor AND you can get enough Daedra hearts AND you can find enough Ebony.

If you're going for light armor, it's the best kind of armor you can get, and thus not a waste of a perk in my opinion.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

You can hit the armor cap with glass armor. Actually, you can hit it with just about any kind of armor, but with glass you should be able to do it without having to abuse alchemy/enchanting, IIRC.

There is an armor cap? ...Oh, apparently there is.

Dammit, so I've been wasting Blacksmith potions all along. :P

That sucks that there's a cap and it's reachable. Anyway, you win the argument, without a doubt.

Hitting that cap requires you to get perks in other skill trees though so I'd be interested to see what the minimum number of perks are and in what configuration could hit the armor cap.

Once you've found your home once, you shouldn't really need help finding it again.
