Dread Zombies....I think...how I kill them?

Post by Argonian Feast »

Hello,

I've recently come upon some green glowing Dread zombies...I think that is their name.

I can't seem to kill them. My silver weapons wont hurt them and My spells just do nothing....

I mean I can kill them but it is only after 10+ minutes of hitting them with a sword...

What am i doing wrong!!!????


Thanks guys,
-Feast

Zombies can be tricky, especially at lower levels. Immune to poison and fromst, and really hard to stagger by blocking.

They are weak to fire though! The answer, enchant (or buy/find) a two-handed weapon (claymores are best) with fire damage and try a slash and run tactic - keeping your distance. In the mean time blasting it with ranged fire spells.

I've not come across any green zombies though.

I think I've encountered what you're talking about...I used a sword with a flame enchantment. I killed them big deal. But when I was back tracking, I was in the room where they were and they were up and about walking around. I think the green aura. Means they come back alive. But it's just a guess.
