Game Walkthroughs

Elder Scrolls 4: Shivering Isles Walkthrough

For those that need quick reference.

Enemy Notes Reward
Baliwogs Little frog things that hang out near water. Fast devils. May have pearls
Dark Seducers Only enemies in a few quests. Just block and attack. Usual stuff from humanoids.
Elytra The obligatory bug type. Strong, and they have a stinger attack.  Use fire. Not much
Failed Experiments Only found in one quest. The zombies, of course. Nothing
Flesh Atronachs These guys are monsters when it comes to offense, but they seem to lack any defense. That is, they are easy to kill so long as you are quick and deadly; but they will most likely heal themselves one time. Void Essence, worth selling
Gatekeepers An enemy one time, but some say that the one you make will attack you too. Not sure why. Either way, the bone arrows will kill it; but don’t  try killing the one you make (then things become really pointless on so many levels I can’t even count!) Keys to the Isles
Golden Saints An enemy only once, and it’s up to you. Hack, block, and slash work here. Humanoid stuff
Gnarls The obligatory tree monsters… wait a minute, that’s not right! These things are really tough, especially the ones in that second-to-last mission. Those Gnarls get stronger from destruction magic, but Damage Health spells  seem to get around this. And watch out for their silence spell. Sometimes Amber
Grummites The obligatory everybody-hates-these-guys enemy. They are similar to humanoids, but they also use poisons on their weapons. Humanoid stuff
Hungers Not encountered much. They are pretty tough and fast, but not too much special here. Not much
Knights of Order These are the main enemy in the game. Get used to fighting them because you’ll literally be thrown waves of these guys. Fire seems to  do them right, and be sure to watch for their spinning attack which will  disarm you every now and then. Heart of Order, used to jam Obelisks and unlock some chests
Priests of Order Found near crystals and sometimes doing other naughty things here and there. Easy-to-kill mages, but they tend to run off. At least they don’t summon stuff. Some of the best loot in the game, including the staves at the end
Scalons Big beasts that live in water; no, I mean they are found deep under the water sometimes. Watch out for that lunge attack and you’ll do fine, I  hope. They can take lots of damage. Not much
Shambles These things are interesting. First, you can’t tell when they are about to attack, and it may either be a magic or damage attack. They can take a good bit of damage. And they even leave an ice blast after you drop ’em.  They suck! Not much
Skinned Hounds The bite IS tough, but they have no defense; duh, they have  no skin! Use fire and damage health stuff to kill quickly. Not much, yet again
Zealots/Heretics Found in the campsites in the wild. Just mages who summon stuff and run away. Kill with prejudice. Mixed, and don’t forget the chests in the camps
Jyggalag One of the few bosses in the whole Oblivion game. I’m sure you  could slash and block with this guy and win, but I have a better plan. Use the two staves you plundered from the quest right before this one and simply  backpedal your way around the grounds (and to victory!). Really, each staff  will inflict massive damage and you only need to be precise. He will go down in no time. And if you somehow don’t have the staffs with you, then I would  recommend using bows and magic in their place. A summon can also distract him for a while, but rarely. Not too tough really. Nothing but a big ol’ steamin’ pile of satisfaction!

Hi there, just was aware of your blog thru Google, and found that it’s really informative. I’m going to be careful for brussels. I’ll appreciate if you happen to proceed this in future. A lot of other people might be benefited out of your writing. Cheers!
