Turtle power!
When npc's still treat you like crap after saving the world (countless times) and restoring their guild/group.

Don`t you hate it when....

you`re rushing to defend your homestead against an encroaching Giant and your child comes up and asks for money ?

you have Deep-In-His-Cups trying to collect on a bet more than once ?

that Mammoth whose Grand Soul you had planned to trap plummets from the sky and dies before you can get to it ?

your pleasant visit to Whiterun is ruined as you run into Nazeem ?

you see one of those buzzard dragons that circles around and won`t come fight you ?

...when you walk damn near completely across the map, but while traversing over some random rocks you fall into a small gap and are unable to get out so you're forced to fast travel the rest of the way which is literally visible in the distance.
This with baby mudcrap (Cannot fasttravel, cannot move)
 
When you sell your stuff and start a dungeon crawl only to remember that you forgot to sell all the stuff on your follower and so can't carry all the stuff out.

When you hit your B button to get to your healing potions and it doesn't work and you die.

When you have traveled half-way across Skyrim and get killed in a fight and realize you didn't save anything since you left the house.

When in doubt, follow the fox.
You're selling off that junk at Bits and Pieces and the clock chimes 8pm, and suddenly you are tresspassing and the guards come to mow you down!

When you're trying to run like hell away from three Draugr Death Overlords and your follower is blocking the only way out and then you die

When you bought all the wrong materials for blacksmithing and then you wasted all your money

When you finally place an item juuuuuuust right in your house and then you shout by accident and fluff up the entire room

When you've reached the end of a dungeon but you realize you're out of health potions before fighting the boss

And then my mind went blank and suddenly I can't think of any more :eek:

He doesnt get away the first time to come back asking for more, with me. Ever :cool:

That has never happened to me but I can only imagine how frustrating that would be!


Don't you hate it when you don't realize a follower (or wife) of yours had died until after going through 2 loading (quicksave) screens :sadface: ?

When you think you have a clear shot, only to watch your spell hit the wall in front of you.

He keeps coming back from the dead to try and collect the money he thinks I owe him. I kill him every time.

Here's For Your Trouble
You're making potions or enchanted items and the NPC in your vicinity keeps going on at you

Tolfdir asks you to perform the ward spell, you do it and you're standing in exactly the right spot and he tells you 'You have to keep your ward up!'. You then have to stand there, fuming, while your magic bar recovers

Ah, yes. The old "Invisible wall" trick. Very annoying indeed.

Well just saying but dragon rend fixes the "dragon won't land" thing

Well, yeah, but to get dragon rend means one must play through the majority of the main story, which I basically never do because I'm simply not interested anymore. Also, some characters aren't RPd as being the Dragonborn.

...you're firing arrows down stairs. They always hit the stairs even though you seem to have a clean shot at the enemy.

...and when you hide behind a barrel, wall, rock, etc and edge out far enough to line up your shot past the object you're using as cover, the arrow strikes the 'invisible' edge of the object instead of actually flying to the target.

That's seriously annoying.

How do you backstab a Dragon?

It's supposed to but it doesn't work 1/2 the time. I just shoot them out of the sky with thunderbolts. That'll teach those dern, stubborn things. :)

Well maybe not thunderbolts because that does magika damage, but if they are fire then ice magic works and does stamina damage, and if they are ice dragons then fire magic

Oh, I agree! Fire and Ice are great when you know what you're facing, but I find Thunderbolt a good all purpose shot. It almost always gets them to land. Spamming chain lightning works too. Then I switch to fire or ice when they're on the ground. Problem is that some of the Elder and Legendary dragons not only have their drain shouts but can use fire or frost as well. :)
