Skyrim: Got on a Dragon's Back...

First Dragon fight in Skyrim and he killed me a couple of times. My archery is weak, but my one handed is strong. Then one time I was chomping on the Dragon's head and then I jumped on his back right behind his head! I had it made and was chomping away and the Dragon couldn't attack me! Unfortunately, I had Fraps on and I pressed the F9 key to record this scene and instead it loaded a previous game save [quick load]. I was so pissed off! Now I have Dragon fights again and I can't manage to jump on his back... I tried the jump key - SPACE and it's not working. Does anyone know how to consistently jump on a Dragon's back?

Also, I don't know how to equip and drink health potions from a quick key - how to do this?

You know, I play Skyrim on my $4000 gaming rig at 2560 x 1600 resolution Ultra settings 8x aliasing 16x Anistropic Filtering and Fraps tells me I'm getting 50 to 60 FPS! It's an i7 2600K 16gb DDR3 1600 CAS 7 Geforce 570 HD system.

Also, I'd like to capture the soul of my first Dragon. What size soul gem do I need and what do I do / need to capture it's soul?

 

Vicious does not see the reliance of mentioning your rig and resolution you play at to this thread.

Vicious is talking in 3rd person like 馬鹿 and plays in 6020x1200 resolution.

 

Its a automatic finishing move that plays, kinda like when you stab people in the back etc.

Dragon souls are also gained automatically you don't have to have any soul gems etc.

 

1) Why make a new thread about this?

2) Serious or troll? Hard to tell.

 

ummmmmmmmmm

 

Lol it seems you and kurt aquired the baka virus XD

 

maybe he is not aware they are already in his sig

 

You overpaid then. I just built one with similar specs for someone else and it cost $1200.

 

lol....Ouch!

 

No, I didn't overpay for my Gaming Rig! It's decked out with some of the best parts for a low power hifi stereo gaming rig. Plus it has 4 hard drives for tons of storage for games, movies, pdfs, and etc. See the spreadsheet for the build and price cost!

 

Convel does not recall Baka writing his name like that.

Convel thinks someone in this forum really cares about their e-peen.

 

Dell 4 year warranty 1200 dollars... congratulations, you just paid the price of an equally equipped pc for warranty (better buy a new one if something broke)...

 

I lol'ed

10 char

 

Bass agrees with convel.

 

Why didn't you get one of those SSDs?

 

Umm... That's a monitor. With a warranty. Cheers.

 

The system I built has a thermaltake itx armor case, asus z68 micro atx board (better than ASRock), same ripjaw ram (16 gb worth), better PSU (ocz 650W), dell IPS 23.6" display, i5-2500k and a 448 core evga 560M. Guess what? It probably performs nearly identical to yours but cost only $1200 for the system and $186 for the display. So $4000 for what you bought is extremely weak, I could have built a water cooled system with top end parts and dual 580s for that kind of cash, what a waste.

P.S. My M18x is as fast as your desktop and I paid $1900 for it with a 2920xm.

 

I do not see what this referring to yourself in the third person nonsense is for, and as far as Skyrim goes, yes, the kill animations are pretty awesome.

 

What a bad build he's got. For all that money spent you only get a GTX 570? A 5400rpm HDD? For a properly built system you couldve gotten dual 580's, 512GB SDD, water cooled setup and still wouldve cost less.
He got ripped off bigtime

 

I think this thread's gone about as far as it can, as most everyone is deviating from topic now
