The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints
Combat Tips
1 of 6: When fighting these guys, remember to maneuver to avoid their blows, or block them with your shield if you have a good Block skill.
2 of 6: Also, use the terrain against them. Move to where they get stuck against something, or knock them off into the lava.
3 of 6: If you hang back on the bridge near a gate after it opens, it can be pretty easy to get your opponent to where you can knock him off the bridge and into the lava.
4 of 6: If you brought any poison potions with you, use them to enhance your weapons for quicker kills.
5 of 6: If you have the Ebony Blade from Mephala's quest, use it (or some other way) to put a Silence effect on your opponent when his health gets low to keep him from healing himself with a spell.
6 of 6: When an opponent is killed, be sure to raid him for useful and/or valuable items before proceeding. Among other things, you'll find a *lot* of strong healing potions.
