Skyrim Battles – Draugr Death Overlord vs. Red Eagle, Forsworn Briarheart, Dragon Priest, and more



One of the strongest draugr in the game gets disturbed by some clueless intruders. This one spawned with an ebony war axe and an ebony shield, which makes him the strongest generic melee draugr in the vanilla game. He’s more dangerous than the two-handed Death Overlords, and his shield additionally protects him from physical damage, with and without blocking.

The Red Eagle uses a generic Draugr Boss template and can have the same stats as his opponent here. However, he always spawns with his unique enchanted sword which has a much lower base damage than an ebony weapon, ultimately making him weaker in comparison with another level 45 Death Overlord.

The round against the Arch Pyromancer depends on the map. With a lot of room to move, the Pyromancer can win pretty consisently, but it only takes a few hits for him to die, so he has little chances in small rooms.
On a side note: Unlike vampires, draugr are not weak to fire.

The Dragon Priest is tanky enough to stay within melee range. As long as he doesn’t glitch out (which usually happens in some way), he’s about equal to the Death Overlord.
Note that this is a fire version, which is the most effective against draugr. Since draugr are 50% resistant to frost, only shock and fire are good elements against them, while fire spells do a bit more damage and cost less magicka than shock spells.

The Death Overlord vs. the Forsworn Briarheart is very inconsistent. The Briarheart’s extreme damage but rather low health make for very fast rounds either way. Generally, if the Death Overlord attacks the Briarheart while he’s ragdolled, the Overlord usually wins. If he doesn’t do that or misses with his shout, the Briarheart tends to beat him pretty often. One or two power attacks with stagger can completley turn the tables around though.

Charstaag is a modded creature by me, based on Karstaag. I needed a final round but have already done Karstaag and the Ebony Warrior vs. various high-level draugr, so I wanted to find a different final boss. The location with the fire in the center fits perfectly for Charstaag!

  1. I knew arch pyromancers were OP but that was honestly unexpected…in these duels mages usually get the short end of stick due to arena layout and stagger of power attacks but those thing's AI is pretty good

  2. if this guy just unrelenting forced every opponent then spammed them with ebony arrows like they do to me in every single nordic ruin, this would probably be a 1 minute video 😭😂

  3. The Briarheart one actually took me by surprise, i didn't knew their DPS were on par with a Draugr Death Overlord, i thought they were a bit more strong since i generally have more difficulty beating them than DDOs at high levels

  4. Cuando era novato andaba a melee solo espada, escudo, armadura pesada sin encantamientos, ni mejoras de herreria, en ese entonces no sabía aprobechar las perks y cuando entraba a las tumbas nórdicas los señores de la muerte Draugr siempre me parecieron difíciles, hasta que conocí al señor supremo de la muerte Draugr de Laberintia… ese tipo me hizo querer salir huyendo como cobarde pero pase 3 días reales intentando vencerlo hasta que pude a duras penas 😅

  5. Thank you for your videos, i love your channel!

    Mind if i make a suggestion? Could you do a fight between the leaders of every fraction? Like thiefs, assassin, mage guild? That would be awesome to watch!
