Light Armour, Dual Dagger, & Dragons

[Eturnus]

Hi all,

I have a lvl 20 Khajit thief/ assasin. i love stealthing, and do it 90% of the time.....but dragons...oh dragons...

I fibnd i cannot sneak up on a dragon. I want their souls and scales and bones. I can sneak up on zombies bandits falmer gaurds, but no dragons.....

When i try to fight a dragon one on one i get pwned.....

ON my mage i could eat dragons, so too on my warrior...any tips for my assasin?

On my assassin, I keep a companion around to help dish out the damage or I run towards the nearest bandit camp in hopes of having the dragon attack them. This is one weakness I feel my assassin has though, when dragons attack me.

Level up your sneak skill and you can sneak up behind a dragon and x30 sneak attack should take 1-2 double power hits

Hmm.... I don't play the Assassin play style (yet) but I would suggest using a potion of Invisibilty to sneak up on him then use a power attack (maybe have a high sneak skill). A couple of them rapidly should finish him off.

Sneaking up on dragons is possible, but very tricky; either a very high sneak or some form of invisibility is very helpful.

If you're having real trouble with dragons, you may want to consider investing in archery. The perks can improve the sneak attack damage a bit (not a huge amount, though); also the Dark Brotherhood and I think the Thieves' Guild armors can improve your bow damage. A sneak attack from a well-enchanted bow (especially with bullet-time zoom) will make it a lot easier to flag dragons. Not as OP, but if you can get them to the ground and then drop out of sight, they're dagger-chow.
