Okaaayyy....

Post by MC2004 »

On my way to Boreal Caves I come across a imperial legion forester firing his bow... and I go to look to see what he's shooting and he's firing at another forester >_>

in pretty much the middle of no where with no horses in sight... thats something I've never seen before >_>

I've seen it before. Usually happens when one forester is hunting a deer or bear or whatever and his arrow "accidentally" hits the other forester. So then they go all out till one is dead, usually leaving a lot of arrows sticking from the ground.

I often go looking for them at level one, great way to get a very easy fine steel bow and some silver arrows, it's a challenge to pick up every single one they miss with.

Not too shabby armor for level 1, a little heavy though.

On one game the other guy went to get his arrows off the corpse so i used sneak and smacked him one and he died to, but that cost me like 1k gold :/.
here's the wiki: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Imper ... n_Forester

It mentions the area near applewatch which is where i usually go if i want the stuff.

Haha, I nearly always see the legion foresters fighting whenever I happen to run into them.

I honestly think I'm the only one who never came across this. I feel so left out :(

If for some reason people want to see this, look East of the underside of the Bruma walls. It happens whenever two Foresters attack the same deer. In this situation, they turn to attack each other.

I once killed one of them during their skirmish and incurred no bounty...but that happens sometimes. Perhaps someone wants to test this?

The last five times I've seen them they were just out hunting deer together.

Perhaps the combat mod I have that reduces target area and increases arrow speed had a positive effect on them.

"nearly always see" them when you happen to run into them?
What happens the other times you run into them?

Generally just chilling.
Although it's quite amusing watching them go on a deer chase, it's quite amazing how far they will chase a deer.


I dont think they attack each other if they use the same armor (see my link) otherwise they'll consider each other an enemy.
It's good fun to watch a fight, i'd reccomend taking a look just for the lawlz (there's like a bandit and some wolves and things in the area to)
