Only time I've seen a dragon attack a town was in Morthal. In a tiny place with houses made of wood, it kind of makes sense for the villagers to attack the dragon. They're gonna die anyway...
I saved them, and was then treated to 5 or 6 different people saying exactly the same thing in different voices. Something along the lines of 'So you're the dragonborn they spoke of'. I forget, it was a few weeks ago Skyrim time.
Actually, it'd be kind of cool if you could find places post-dragon attack. Not completely destroyed, still some people around to give quests/explain what's up, but kind of a wreck, and with terrified people in the few unburned corners.

Actually, the only time I've had them land is with Dragonrend, or when they are at low enough health. Often they will just land (a bit heavily, but no real impact), but if enough damage is dealt to them prior to the landing animation, they will crash to the ground instead, creating a permanent change to the ground (it is laggy sometimes though). Makes sense actually, when hurt enough flying isn't exactly pleasant, and dragons are too prideful to just leave (well, besides that one, but that is a spoiler).
I will agree, however, that they really need to be upped some, or other mobs lowered a bit. That bandit plunderer should not be more deadly than a blood dragon.

Soooooo... Why is Ken Masters in Skyrim?
No, scratch that. I want to see the dragon get hit by a Dragon Uppercut!

The very moment a dragon shows up, there's a chance everybody (including your horse) will charge the dragon. If you don't save your game early and often, you might lose your horse or some quest giving NPC might get chewed up a little.OldRat said:
I was once attacked by a dragon in Dawnstar. I legged it up a tower to rain arrows, while Lydia, my horse and my pet dog decided to stand their ground and go toe-to-toe with the dragon. Amazingly, only my dog died! Lydia died later though, as in the confusion of the melee I saw someone on the ground crying for mercy and shield-bashed her out of habit. It was her own fault for wearing such generic armour!Headdrivehardscrew said:
On a different occasion, a dragon attacked outside of Riften. I chased it over some hills, and arrived just in time to collect the soul and see two city guards walking away like nothing had happened. They then paused to be impressed by the fact I was a Dragonborn. Props to those guys, they don't let a little dragon fuck up their day.
This is soo true. You'd think more peopel would run and hide, but when the dragon comes everyone is a fighter.
Does the universe advance at all if you are not in an area? I mean I know it only creatings graphics out to a certain distance, but could there be a dragon attack when you aren't in the area? The only fights in progress I've run across appear to be scripted, though I did have non essential but plot relivent character die in a fight before I could save him. It is funny because I accidently triggered dialog with another character where they apologized for what the dead man had said to me which was the only reason I realized he had dialog.

On the way to the tree we saw some giants fighting a dragon, his dumbass charges in fists flying and immediately goes flying towards the moon. If he falls on me and kills me on his way down I'm going to be so pissed.
