Let's Play Skryim: Hob's Fall Cave cheat(hardest fight)

[bluegel100]

@gamenubs1 ok the trick to those pyro soul gems is turn your dif to novice, go and take them off the pedastals then turn it back to master, or wipe that room of mages on novice als since its sucha pain lol

[SunnyDayLove123]

Check out my channel for a Skyrim trolllll

I managed to beat this fighting all of them head on. Just used my ward spell and my sword and did just fine, albeit I died twice trying, it's still very possible!

[SirTannen]

It's not Impossible to take them on, if a fighter could just chop them up (spellbreaker shield helps alot), if you're a mage just blast them with fireball spam and drink all your mana potions (or if high elf use your racial power) Or if you're a stealth just cheese it with stealth+arrow crit. The way you did it is ok too tho, really depends on your setup.

[makedonija77]

lol i must have entered from the wrong side i'm playing on the 360 and the pull chain is on the other side of the caged door

[gamenubs1]

@makedonija77 lol yeah that's possible

[EnKayNem]

Lol, having an armor with 600+ rating like me lets you defeat them while sleeping.

[Grumzyy]

The Hob's Fall cave is located down on the ice flow way below the lighthouse. Look for a chasm (big crack) in the ice and follow it south toward the lighthouse and you'll run into the cave.

[Shellova]

I managed to climb that cliff in the beginning (through some ridiculous wall jumping) and managed to open the cage before they sacrificed her. The mages weren't there and Lyrina didn't respond to anything when I talk to her, she just stood there like an idiot waiting to be sacrificed. So I guess, she can't be saved after all...

Also, when fighting the three mages, you can wait until the ceremony's over and they will sit there. You can sneak attack using a bow and run down to avoid their attacks

[gamenubs1]

@Shellova yeah I am playing strictly mage, so I am not using any sort of weapons other then a dagger and spells

[cloaksanddaggers25]

Wow u suck at this game. There are only three necrimancers in that room. The master one is reviving the others probably. Also, you don't have to run thru that trap, u can take the soul gems off the pillars and the real disarmed, and u get soul gems.

[gamenubs1]

@cloaksanddaggers25 hmm i dunno, moment i went inside they all come after me lol

[xanthking2]

can some one plz tell me where this cave is located because the quest for this area glitched on me and refuses to show up on my quest list... i would really appreciate the info considering it doesnt give me a single hint as to where it is...

[gamenubs1]

@xanthking2 sorry didnt see your comment. Here is the location "img444.imageshack.us/img444/6­728/hobcave.jpg"

[xanthking2]

@gamenubs1 thanks for the help this quest has been bugging me for a while i kind of just ignored it.

[bluegel100]

@xanthking2 vvv.gamebanshee.c0om/showshot.­php?/skyrim/mapofskyrim/skyrim­map.png change the vvv to the 3 w's and take the 0 out

[RavainX]

the ice traps that were there,for anyone that dont know,are powered by soul gems,if you get close to them youll see a gem at the top,take it,and it disables the trap,and you get a soul gem out of it, so yeah anyone that didnt know that now ya do,any traps similar also have soul gems,

[bullethead950]

wheres the location of hobs fall cave? cant find it >.>

[jiveturker]

@bullethead950 This TT

[wolfman42793]

i spent like an hour on this lol. I had to run back and close the gate on them and just pick them off with a bow.

[arcaneminded]

can you stop Larina from dying?

[gamenubs1]

@arcaneminded larina? Do you mean lydia? She doesn't die in fights only cowers down when no health. But I'm not sure if your attacks can kill her or not, haven't tried

[arcaneminded]

@gamenubs1 No not lydia. Larina is the girl you hear at the start saying "help they're going to kill me" but by the time you go all the way around she's lying on the altar dead. I'm not sure if it's possible to save her but I doubt it.

[gamenubs1]

@arcaneminded ahh I remember now, no I believe she dead and they revive her as a zombie. Sick mages they were experimenting on those guys

[StonedAustralian]

@gamenubs1 porthanux killed lydia for me cause lydia the crazy bitch attacked him

[Vestibowl]

Just use the sanguin rose and the daedra will eliminate them easy. You can even sneak too to gain levels while you wait for them to die off.

[gamenubs1]

@Vestibowl I didn't have it at that time :( but yeah he's super strong alright. But now that I have the staff I don't like using it, no fun when my companions kill everything lol

[OkamsRazer]

To avoid Companion deaths, especially when doing something tactically "tricky" its best just to have them "waited" on the entrance of the dungeon (outside of course because if you tell them to "wait" at the entrance inside and you are attacked they still come to find you. I only wish they had thought ahead and programmed the companions to be a little more complex in their following of orders.

Like have the option of assigning a "stance" to them via dialogue, defensive vs offensive, etc

[gamenubs1]

@OkamsRazer Yeah I noticed even you tell them to wait inside a house, will still come out to fight. Here I couldn;t tho, we were very deep inside the dungeon lol.

[OkamsRazer]

@gamenubs1 Indeed. But this doesnt occur when you leave them outside a dungeon OR significantly away from where you intend to have a combat (in the Overworld....don't ask me for a specific "distance" its kinda a hard thing to describe and requires a little planning)

Usually I leave them at a fast travel point where they wont be accidentally spawn on by a dragon or something in your absence :) I only wish we could have a resurrection spell or a way to return people to life....

[Englishcheck]

this was a very smart idea. thanks

[gamenubs1]

i am playing on master difficulty. Yeah I died so many times here almost thought about just leaving the place and come back later. I didn't want to lower the difficulty tho. As I was leaving and those the gate and handle, I thought maybe I could trap them here.

[xwolfi]

What difficulty level are you playing at ? I was astonished to see your video, since I killed the mage in 5 minutes at the easiest level without even noticing that maybe some strategy could be used ! It's like we're playing two different games :D
