Why You Should Miss Your Skyrim Wedding

This video was performed at level 1, except for the last clip, as the Ebony Warrior cannot be encountered until level 80. Vampire Lord powers can be used as human, through exploits. Here is a link to my video showing how to do so:    • Becoming an Anti-Vampire Lord in Skyr...  

The song playing is Outset Island, from the Wind Waker.

I used a Scroll of Firestorm, as it will transfer over through the loading screen. However, I needed to miss my wedding to enable player controls, or else the next screen will be locked forever if Astrid is killed that way.

I used the werewolf exploit to equip duplicate Gloves of the Pugilist, and increase my unarmed damage enough to one-shot enemies. Ronthil, Hestla, Rargal Thrallmaster, and the two Death Hounds are the only Volkihar members that can be killed at this point in the game. I used an Exploding Flame Spider to kill Ronthil, and the Imperial racial ability, Voice of the Emperor, to both detonate the spider, and pacify the vampires. Hestla and Rargal Thrallmaster do not take damage from spider scolls at this point in the game, so I had to attack them instead. At the end, I used the Sun Flare ability to do some damage to the rest of the vampires. I used the Become Ethereal shout to avoid taking any damage, to prevent gaining any experience.

This version of Miraak is a separate version than the one you will be encountering later on and ultimately fighting. He is not essential, and killing him will not break the questline, as he is replaced by another Miraak, as soon as the next quest starts. His robes are different than the final Miraak's Robes in that their enchantment offers no spell absorption, but instead reduces all magicka costs by 15% and provides 100% magicka regeneration.

The Dead Thrall spell cannot be acquired at level 1, which is why I used the Ritual Stone to re-animate Gormlaith Golden-Hilt. The Scroll of Dead Thrall can be, but it only works on humanoid NPCs up to level 15, and Gormlaith is level 30.

I used Become Ethereal to avoid getting ragdolled by the Unrelenting Force shout. The Ebony Warrior is protected, and cannot be killed by fall damage, so I had to finish him off with a fireball, right after he landed. Once he gets back up, he will recover all health.
