So if I piss off the giants, that’s potentially five pissed-off and very large creatures I’d have to do something about. And I am not advanced enough yet on my spellcasting perks to have the Silent Casting perk.Īlso of note with this: there are two giants at that camp. I do not know yet if I can get enough distance ahead of a giant with Whirlwind Sprint to eliminate the risk of it catching up with me.Īnd since giants are level 34, and I’m level 29 as of this writing, I am still not entirely comfortable with the prospect of taking on a giant in melee combat.ĭropping runes seems tasty at first glance, but there’s also the risk that the giants would just be alerted by the sound of me firing off the runes.
Drop some runes around the camp and see if I can blow up the giant that wayĪll of these options seem problematic. Snipe from as much distance as I can manage, then run like hell, and by run like hell I mean “make liberal use of Whirlwind Sprint to improve my ability to run like hell”. Which would require me to fall back on these options: So there was not really anywhere I’d be able to hide out of a giant’s reach. The problem with this plan: no really adequate cover anywhere near Bleakwind Basin. 
The theory was, maybe I could do the same strategy I’d done at Guldun Rock, and do a snipe-and-run pass until I took the giant down. I started the session scoping out the giant camp at Bleakwind Basin, to see if I could run the open bounty from Whiterun for that.
Boinged back to Whiterun to sell loot and run another burglary job. By extension, also triggered the Forbidden Legend quest since Jyrik Gauldurson is a boss monster in Saarthal. Proceeded through the Under Saarthal quest for the mage college. Had to also kill a Frost Dragon during my apprentice intro chat with Mirabelle Ervine, since the dragon attacked right over the college courtyard. Started the plotline to join the mage college used Healing Hands on Faralda to make it past her entry check on the bridge. Started the quest for Azura’s Star, and got to the point of speaking with Nelacar at the Frozen Hearth inn and finding out I needed to go to Ilinalta’s Deep. Re-ran the plot for the Masque of Clavicus Vile. Scoped out Bleakwind Basin to see if I could run that giant bounty, but was not happy about my lack of cover prospects in the immediate vicinity-particularly after I saw my target giant whomp an NPC Farmer with his club will have to come back and get that giant later. And, I did another burglary job in Whiterun. 
In this session, the primary action was re-doing plots I’d already done with Alarrah-but which I liked well enough that I wanted to go ahead and do them again.
