You know the one I mean.
The appariition that steals your hard-won dragon souls until you beat the real deal.
I was approaching Arcwind Point when a Frost Dragon attacked.
My followers and I lit the scaly beast ablaze with Ignite spells and it landed in the valley to die.
As the dragon burned away , "Miraak" appeared to do his usual thing but for some reason he had attracted the attention of a nearby Draugr Deathlord and his Skeleton minions.
They began fighting and it was easy to see that no one could hurt the other.
I watched from a distance for some minutes.
Miraak couldn`t even kill a Skeleton , did not have his sword , didn`t shout , and was fighting with what looked like the Sparks spell and his bare hands.
The Skeletons did no better and even the Deathlord`s Ebony War Axe and Unrelenting Force shout caused the ghost no damage.
But what the Deathlord`s shout did do was blow away the dragon`s skeleton to a distance away from the fight.
Finally , I decided to get involved and soon the undead group were defeated.
I noted that my followers did not attack Miraak nor did he appear as an enemy on my radar.
Then the ghost just stood there silent , apparently too far away from the dragon`s corpse for his monologue/theft to trigger.
As ever , I couldn`t touch or get a reaction out of him.
But when I told Illia to attack him , the fight was on !!!
Alas, it was all show again as the combined attacks of Illia and Serana did nothing and the tussle could have gone on for weeks as far as I could tell.
Eventually broke off the fight and left him behind . I don`t know if he ever got the dragon soul but I sure didn`t.
