Unfortunately a few days ago I got a new named horse and, as I understood it, it should've put Shadow back in a stable but she has yet to show back up.

Just the fact that you can fight a Dragon as a werewolf, and that it's completely optional, makes this the greatest game ever.

and she probably has the best introduction of any character in the game...
Also, I still have her...but superfro...did you try going to Fort Farragut? I think that is where she stays when you are not using her....

He likes it, but his criticisms are valid.

I had a hard time with him, and I didn't have many healing potions, so I was goint to give up and come back. Then I used the slow time shout as soon as he shut up, got to him before him moved, killed him in 3 or 4 hits before he had a time to do anything.

Dragons flying backwards, getting stuck in mountains, and doing other weird things.
Lots of other random glitches/bugs (some that make the game almost unplayable) that were never reported before, so it can be assumed they started with the arrival of the new patch.
I never had any problems with version 1.1 or whatever it was before. I wish they'd just put that one back up as an update.

None of the "resistance" stuff works anymore.

I was fighting a frost dragon last night, and he was tearing me apart, it seemed like the frost resistance wasn't helping at all.

I imagine the dragons are tougher simply because resistances are broken, and because elemental attacks are a big part of what they do.

This also isn't the only time I've heard about this happening because of the patch. A number of people have reported the exact same issue on the Bethesda forums. So, beware of the patch. (For me, that goes without saying when it's a newly-released Bethesda game.)

I dunno. I never have any resistances and I can stand in the frost breath or fire and just shoot arrows.
