Craziest sh!t happened tonight while playing skyrim, anyone ever had key quest characters just abruptly show up for no apparent reason? well tonight i did.. i was on my way to gather evidence on liberating the reach when all a sudden i realized i was right smack in the middle of a huge forsworn camp, *thats what i get for not paying attention* heard the trash talk and did the only thing you can in that situation, took cover behind the nearest rock and started conjuring my ass off.. *if you've got a better strategy against a hundred archers with homing arrows, i'm all ears* then i saw something i'm usually not happy to see, a dragon.. and it was attacking them! i've never been so glad to see a dragon on this game.. lol so trying to sneak my way around the fort to make a run for it i saw "what i thought" was a forsworn who'd discovered me headed my way, shot the prick with my one shotty bow and noticed he was crouching down not dead, wtf? forsworn don't have any infinite health guys.. as i got a better look i realized it was esbern!! all i could think was what the flyin F! is he doing here!? after that i just said screw it and ran.. got half way to my destination before a fireball blasted me right in the ass, turned expecting a mage and to my absolute WTF i instead saw delphine and esbern both kicking the sh!t balls outa me! i didn't even bother fighting back as neither can be killed and had no choice but to load back all the way to where i started *i keep my save on fast travel only cause it causes freezes if i don't* but what in the holy hell could have made them show up in a freakin forsworn camp??? i say "them" cause i'm guessing delphine was there too.. has anything like this ever happened to anyone else?

I'm guessing you didn't follow Esbern or Delphine to Alduin's Wall? And that you kept it on pause?

Because they didn't "abruptly" show up.

honestly i don't even remember where i am on that questline, i put it on my "to do" list months ago when i got esbern out the rat way and returned him to riverwood, i don't mess with those quests too often as i find them boring.. i've never seen him or delphine till now.

Sorry, man, but you missed out on one of the best moments in the game. As much as I dislike the Blades that is not something you miss out on.

If persimmons approach, Khajiit will smell them.

I guess you decided to "meet them at Karthspire," then forgot about it until you ended up at Karthspire, arguably the biggest Forsworn camp in the game. Yeah, they're there. If you come in from the south, you meet them first... but if you come in from the north, the fight starts with you on one side, Esbern/Delphine on the other, and the Forsworn and Hagravens in the middle. Bwahahahahahahaha!

There's always The Lesson of the Running and Shooting Mehitabel mentions in the Idle Claws article. Get good at using your bow on the run. I handled them pretty well with the Ranger + Quick Shot perks... along with Expert Illusion, which pretty much takes the Forsworn out of the game.

far as i know everyone in the ratway is invincible except for the few bandits near the entrance, the mad chef, blind whats-her-name, and that dude you get the pugilist gloves from..

The bandits who have Dravin's Bow are not invincible... just tough. Tough like the guys at the entrance.

I didnt realize it at first. I personally liked the mad chef i let him out, but before he could share his recipes with me, delphine slaughtered him.

I agree, you ended up in that camp which is a pain in the butt especially for two : one woman forsworn with a lot of magic and power and the freaking Hagraven. Other than them, are easy to take in my opinion. ;)

Yep, you are right ! I tried to kill Dex, the bold guy, the bartender, I mean everybody in the first room where to thieves are but they simply don’t die at all. I had Serana with me and I started the fight because of the way the bartender talked to me. Stupid ass... was talking to me like if I was a common slave and ...after I killed Mercer so I got mad and started the fight but they simply don’t freaking die which it is very annoying ... :eek:
