Oh. I have way more dragon souls than I need right now. I need to find more dragon words.

Pretty sure you just assign a spell to each hand. Which are the triggers. Weird, I tried that...my timing must've been off.

Yeah, the timing has to be kind of exact.

It's also a perk for each individual school of magic, so they won't fuse if you don't have it. I didn't realize this until surprisingly late in the game, having taken the recovery one at the beginning and forgetting about it.
Animals are bastards, btw. I started a stealth char (Khajit) because I didn't like 2H melee as much (I ended up sniping with the bow a lot, even though that wasn't the build I was going for), and got attacked by a saber cat and some wolves. You'd think I could slink off and let the wolves and cat fight each other, but noooooo, it was a regular snuggle party without me in the picture. Apparently, in Skyrim, cats and wolves are the best of friends. So long as the cat in question isn't a Khajit.

So my third blood dragon I faced was a three way battle between me and Barbas, the blood dragon, and a couple of giants. The whole thing was complete mayhem and I barely survived.
Blackreach, especially when you consider the preceding Dwemer ruin, is FUCKING HUGE. I've only explored a fraction of the place and have traveled from one mountain to another on the world map. Seriously, the dungeon has to be like 1/5 to a 1/4 of the size of the main world.
Also, I've got 9 shouts right now, but still have plenty of leftover dragon souls.
Oh yeah, I've also maxed out my frost resistance. I have my Nord racial 50% resistance, and two pieces of armor which each have 20% and 30% resistance respectively.
And it's SO much fun trolling people with the force/push shout. I've done stuff like what the guy in this video is doing SO many times.

not being able to reset perks is sooo old school rpg... I do play on a pc so there is the cheat way to reset, but they really should not make games like that anymore. Any modern rpg I have played allows for build resets. While not as bad as planning and executing a character build in Oblivion it is still a pain. I do want to test how different builds play out at higher levels without having to replay the whole game. Make it hard to reset the build (like using an expensive ingame commodity or something) but give us the opportunity...

That's odd, because I could do it with Heal without having so much as a single perk in Restoration...it just cost a lot.

Let me double check...
Restoration Dual Casting - Dual casting a Restoration spell overcharges the effects into an even more powerful version.
You can still have 2 healing spells at the same time without the perk. The perk is what fuses them (makes a single spell in front of you instead of 2 separate spells in each hand).

Hurrah, the dragons have joined the civil war! I was gearing up to attack Fort Sungard with my Stormcloak brethren when a dragon swoops down out of nowhere, flames the fort for a good two minutes and buggers off again. Needless to say, we took full advantage of this.

I have run into only very minor bugs. Nothing that has impacted the gameplay at all. Only had one C2D, so that's really good for a Bethesda title. My dark elf Nicodemus has developed into a Mage/Stealth character, which is not what I was expecting. It just kind of happened, which I find fascinating. It's almost like the character had a better idea of who he is is than I did. I basically abandoned the main storyline a few days ago when I got sucked into the Thieves Guild line. WORTH EVERY SECOND (if only for the awesome Nightengale armor). Next I am going to go searching out the Assassins Guild. This time through I am going E V I L. That's why I like Bethesda games, if you don't try to do EVERY damn thing, you can replay it from a different angle. Next time I'm going with a Warrior/Healer type, kind of a paladin concept.

Hey, I'm having an issue with the damn dragons. The bastards won't friggin LAND and I can't seem to tag them with a spell or arrow. Any idea how to make the assholes come in range?

Spam the main quest until you get the Dragonrend Shout. Forces the bastards to land. That said, it is kinda at the end of Act II I think. (I'm only about halfway through Act II).
Alternately, get the Storm Call shout. The good news is that it calls down lightning everywhere in the immediate area which will strike the dragon in mid-air. The BAD news however; All three words are guarded by Lvl 50 Dragon Priests, the cool-down for the first word alone is 5 minutes and it will target anyone in the area indiscriminately.

Some of them won't until you wait around without the Dragonrend shout. Others will land on fucking buildings in open-air cities.

I think they need enough room to land. I had two circling me like vultures after coming out from the...party. Only one of the two actually landed, and it only did so once I was in a large enough space to support its size.
On a related note...has anyone ever gotten two dragons in the air that would fight you at once? Because I'm tired of bitching these lone bastards with my Redguard spellsword.
