Bleak Falls Barrow to test out the new spells further
"Do you feel that cold burn? That's Creeping Cold freezing you while hurting you" said Orcanorc as he took out some bandits in front of Bleak Falls Barrow.
His summoned wraith helped to do a lot of rapid damage, while the icy spell showed why its constant stream of frost damage is deadly to many. It had become his new favourite way, of taking out his enemies but he was always prepared to use his sword, if it came to that of course.
Once they were disposed of and with no issues, it was time to start clearing Bleak Falls Barrow and keeping up with the quests.
It was more bandits inside to be taken out and with no hassles, they were succumbing to the same frost damage that was proving super effective in combat.
It was time to upgrade some more perks since he had gotten stronger spells, giving a better idea of what he wanted to do. "I think these will come in handy as I keep using the creeping cold and dragon's teeth spells, making the stronger" he mumbled as he chose the perks to upgrade.
The destruction mastery reduces the magicka cost of destruction spells while making them more powerful, allowing a longer use for more damage.. then destruction dual casting increases the cost of them of course, but better use comes out of the spells and can really do a lot of damage.
Casting the dual creeping cold provided a better slow burn on a bandit thug which slowed him down, damaging him while weakening him ready for the onslaught of melee attacks they were going to unleash.
A few melee attacks in due to the weakened frost state and this bandit was now ready for the last hit, to end his life!
After solving the next rooms puzzle which was three rotating stone pillars with the designs of an eagle, snake and dolphin that had the clues in that same room, he easily worked out the order and proceeded further into this place to work on clearing it all out.
After going further down and grabbing some loot, also killing some Skeever rats, a noise was heard further along.. "Please, help cut me down before it comes back" a voice is heard as they break away some cobwebs to find a room filled with cobwebs and someone stuck amongst them.
A giant spider had come back down from up high, instantly starting to attack Vorstag and Orcanorc as they did the damage while taking a few smaller hits. Both of them had no issues with defeating this giant spider though and had a quick look around in case there were any others.
Orcanorc cut down Arvel the Swift who did not want to part with the golden claw, but the persuasion used by stabbing him with a sword, was definitely enough to ensure the golden claw was retrieved and will get returned to Riverwood. It required taking out some draugr along with Arvel, which had woken up from all the commotion.
"I think we should be close to the end now, Orcanorc but we should stay prepared" Vorstag announced while they kept taking out more draugr and avoided some trap pendulums.
"You are right about that. Close one to be running through this dangerous area but be prepared for a big fight at the end I think."
After killing numerous more draugr throughout Bleak Falls Barrow both in groups together, or being solo restless draugr that are just in the way now, they got to something more tougher..
A dragon wall with another shout to be learned was in the final area. Orcanorc absorbed it before hearing a sound from behind, it was a draugr wight lord waking up, the constant stream of frost damage weakened it down to give Vorstag an opportunity to slice it up hard.
Surprisingly it was an easy fight, this creeping cold really helps the damage amplification of melee weapons so even these strong enemies can easily be killed. A soul gem large enough was being held on him, absorbing the soul of the wight lord and with that, they left with a satisfaction of another dungeon cleared.
