An Unarmed FO specialist with the Piercing Strike & Paralyzing Palm perks will easily dispatch any Skyrim character.

Well I don't play Skyrim, but my Fallout characters mostly have guns and power armor. So uh... advantage Fallout.

my skyrim character has a bow and has skills in archary so time slows down as i aim... and if that arrow hits since its a dual enchanted bow, my fallout character would get FUBARDED...

Well then again, the fallout character has nukes... and if my skyrim character got hit by a nuke.. i dont think any type of magic shield will save them from that.

But once again... in dragon shout (unrelentlessness force?) we have that push, and could probably push the nuke back like a hot potato b4 it hit the ground...

Like I said, nothing is going to get through the daedric armor, especially if its improved. I'm killing DRAGONS with a few hits now and taking little damage, so I don't think anything that FO throws at me will hurt in the slightest. Even if I thought it would, I'd dragon shout freeze your ass and then go whack on you a couple times with the daedric sword and boom, yer dead.

sorry if u could drop a nuke (which fallout has)... daedric's armor wont save you... if it doesnt kill you, you'll slowly die a painful death from radiation poisoning, not to mention make you lose the daedrics armor.

An Unarmed FO specialist with the Piercing Strike & Paralyzing Palm perks will easily dispatch any Skyrim character.

no it wont because a double enchanted daedrics armor would let u sit there taking laughable damage wondering wtf the fallout character was trying to do... as i said a NUKE is probably the only way, otherwise skyrim character is IMBA.


Lastly my fallout character was great.. until he took an arrow the knee...

Spoken like someone whom's never been nuked...

Last I checked, Skyrim didnt have a MIRV.

Of course, I aint got that far yet. And Fallout didnt have shouts.

It seems like FO3 at first glance but then you remember that your Skyrim Char can sneak one shot dragons with a bow, so not so sure :)

Both games have perks to multiply sneak attacks. I think the YCS186 has higher base damage than any bow, but theres no magic you can put on it.

Well, if an arrow to the knee doesn't do it then just lay out the FUS DO RAH!

ahhh <3 that gauss rifle...

but no.. the only thing a skyrim character needs to worry about is this:

healing magic + daedrics would make the skyrim character imba unless it was a nuke with constant radiation poisoning damage.

also the wabojock, that funky staff would make hell on the FO3 character if he was turned into a chicken.

I'm pretty sure no Skyrim character is going to stand my sneaking a grenade in their pocket...

yeah, my characters would try to out-sneak each other. It would be a battle of wits, ending in a draw.

The only chance my Skyrim character would have, I think, is to sneak in close enough, poison the Fallout character with Boethian ebony mail while fallout character has no idea what is going on. Then, maybe Fus ro Ga her into the next zipcode, rush up, and decapitate.

Oh, and the Chinese stealth suit is superior to any invisibility spell.
As soon as you do anything, its immediately cancelled. Yes, you can cast spells cheap or even free, so you could get plenty of invisibility, in steps.
Overall its too much hassle. Stealth suit works no matter what you do.

LOL bring in the Neveraine with massive potion boosts. Runs faster than a jet, able to jump miles, 100% sanctuary (immunity to bullets), 100% chameleon (same as invisibility), health and magicka up the ying-yang. Yaaa, gotta love overkill LOL

I don't need invisibility when I can crouch next to a fire and someone standing 2 feet in front of me can't see me.

Clairvoyance, to be fair, is oftentimes buggy as hell.

I would just Spycheck I mean spam flame everywhere.

My Morrowind character would be invisible and shooting bolts from 1 mile above my FO3 and Skyrim characters via levitation potions. At that distance, gravity does the work.

A MIRV nuke wouldn't phase a morrowind char, in fact if you've been to Solthiem, it might be a nice way to warm up LOL
