OK ... most people that play Skyrim get to Bleak Falls Barrow around level *2* ... I started with the "Alternate Start - Live Another Life" mod that's so popular among the community, and one I've genuinely had fun with. I'd mucked around with a few things early on since I spawned just outside Morthal, where there's a lot of interesting encounters. Around level **25** I decided "Hey, let's get the main quest going." ... Fast forward to approaching Bleak Falls Barrow - I hadn't even entered it yet - when I'm assaulted by a reincarnation of Dark Souls 2 SotFS's famous "Gank Squad" (Afflicted Graverobber, Ancient Soldier Varg, and Cerah the Old Explorer) ... I was happy to see J'zargo as the "Explorer" -- until he 2-shot me with a DRAGONBONE Bow.
Take 2, some hours later at level 30, after blowing off steam: J'zargo killed, then I got 1-shot by the tanky equivalent of DS2's Ancient Soldier -- who was wearing FULL DRAGONPLATE Armor.
Take 3 (Time for GOD MODE) ... Yup, other dude's got Dragon armor too ...
There's "deadly" and then there's "Let's put the toughest new boss as a bouncer for the first major area of the game that people are liable to enter at level 2, very underpowered." How's that fair?
[Edit: I've performed the Black Sacrament ... the modder should be hearing from a Dark Brotherhood associate fairly soon.]
