The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints

Combat Tips

  • 1 of 3: Stay near the entrance to the area and try to dodge the archers' arrows while helping Hadvar (and the torturer's assistant, if he survived) take down the melee soldiers.
  • 2 of 3: After they're down, you can try to ignite an oil spill that the archers are standing near with the Flames spell, but that would probably be easier if you ran around to where you could more easily see the floor they're standing on.
  • 3 of 3: If you don't want to flame them, charge in for some melee power attacks to finish them off quickly.
