Please Help! (Spoiler?)

Post by edman »

So I'm doing the allies for Bruma part of the main quest. I'm on the part where I'm supposed to help the soldiers take back kvatch castle. Anyways I started to follow the guy with the key to go to the guard tower and as I go outside through the door here's what I see: about 4-6 Frost Atronachs, 2-4 Storm Atronachs, too man clanfears to count, about 4 spider daedra, maybe about 4-6 daedroths, and even more of each further down the road near the guard tower. Needless to say I'm getting it handed to me. What am I supposed to do??

I'm guessing you're pretty high level if you're running into all that. The opposition isn't nearly that intense if you do the mission at a lower level. Anyway, the cheapo answer would be to move the difficulty slider in the options menu a few clicks to the left.

If that doesn't suit you, try to get the key as quickly as possible and then either use chameleon/invisibility, or run like a madman for the map marker where you use it to open the gate. If your personality & speechcraft are high enough and you pick the correct dialog options, you might be able to get Berich to give you the key without him tagging along. Alternatively, you can try to pickpocket it off of him if your Sneak and Security skills are good enough. As a last resort hang back and dodge the baddies until he's killed, and grab it off his body.
Can the answer to this question be "No"?

for me Berich gets killed almost instantly, so my advice to you is simply to grab the key off his corspe and run for it

Yea I tried the running Idea already. I grabbed the key and ran off only had one spider daedra chase after me. I opened the gate to the castle and out rushed all of these creatures and it said now I have to help kill them. At this point I couldnt dodge any longer and bit the dust...

Any ideas on what I should do? Is there some tactic you guys use when taking on many many enemies?

I dunno if it help while you have so much enemies, but why don't you try to stand far from them, and shoot an arrow on the nearest enemy, to get his attention. The idea here is to fight each one of them in 1 on 1 battle. After you kill one of them, hide again, and shoot at the next one.
