The mistake of the developers is that with the growth of the character level, complex opponents do not appear. Over time, enemies click like seeds. The add-on “Skyrim: Serpent Tooth” introduces a storyline with a complex dragon and a unique location. The reward goes to a large amount of money, new spells, weapons and dragon shouts, and a number of side quests motivate to explore the territories. The fan add-on will be discussed in the article.
Description
Developed by fans of the Skyrim: Serpent Tooth mod, the game added new quests, spells, characters, locations, and a storyline for level 10 Dovakin drafted by Graybeards.
An authorized representative of an eastern trading company seeks help from a hero in order to destroy a dragon attacking caravans. At first glance, the idea seems ridiculous, because the ancient winged monsters have no need to attack merchants, but in the end events develop in an interesting way.
Dialog branches are voiced, but not translated into Russian. Therefore, the domestic audience will have to be content with subtitles.
As part of the DLC, the player will have to visit the island, fight the dragon Vulturakhrakh, complete a series of side quests, receive unique rewards, including the new Fiik Lo Sah scream (Ghost Form).
Within the framework of the Skyrim: Serpent Tooth mod, the protagonist will be able to acquire a new home - an abandoned imperial fort, which is to be put in order.
Walkthrough
Theodin Bien approaches the player and advises him to find Luria Lior in the “Prancing Mare”. NPC will tell that for the task the player will receive a reward of 10,000 gold and he will be helped by mercenaries. On the technical side, the latter represent a detachment, and Dovakin will travel with more than one satellite:
- Atir is a Hammerfel mercenary warrior who was previously Alikr’s.
- Deynlit is a Bosmer archer recently rescued from Solitude.
- Shargam is an orc berserker from Narzulbur. Strong silent warrior with one-handed weapons.
- Elmer is a skilled magician, expelled from his hometown for a successful experiment to summon the Fire Atronach inside a living person.
You need to meet with the mercenaries in a clearing near Falkrit and proceed to the "Passage of the Ancients" in the southeast. At the exit from the grotto, the first meeting with Vulturakrakh will occur.
In a brief dialogue, the monster says that a worthy adversary has met, but the fight will take place on the island of Snake Tooth, which in the dragon's tongue sounds like “Brom Lock Strunma”.
The serpent flies away, and the task is replaced by a new one - to return to Lurius Lior. The conversation with the quest giver comes down to the assumption that the dragon is trapping. The settlement is not protected, therefore there is no choice: the hero meets Luria at the docks of Solitude and sets sail for the island.
Upon arrival, the squad will proceed to the town, the inhabitants of which were attacked. Then the path will lie through the mountains of Skyrim to the Temple of the Serpent's Tooth, where an interesting NPC will meet - the wizard Albertor, who conducts experiments to control dragurs. An interesting moment for which the creators deserve a monument during their lifetime: a short but informative game on behalf of a walking corpse.
It’s not easy to defeat a culture crash at the end of the quest! As a reward, Dovakin receives the promised money, along the way you will find spellbooks of call of draugr and ancient Nordic sword “Bloodthirst” for summoning undead.
Quests
The Skyrim: Serpent Tooth mod has added 17 new tasks to the game, 15 of which are secondary and cover the territory of the island. Unique quests appeared with a choice of parties.
For example, you need to help workers in the production of hard rubber: spriggans are wound up in the adit, so each sortie ends with a massacre. A creature descending into the cave Dovakin will offer to die in battle or kill the miners so that their blood restores the balance of nature.
Mistakes
The passage “Skyrim: Serpentine Tooth” does not always go smoothly: there are sound bugs in Hemera in the form of vibrations similar to a collision of objects, at the entrance to the room a number of things fall to the ground (as if someone throws them at Dovakin), it plays incorrectly near the rivers the sound of water. All this may be the result of excessive “smearing” of the game with conflicting modifications.
If you take his side in a conversation with Spriggan and then kill him, the task will not be counted until the miners die. But after death, there is no one to accept the news of fulfillment - the quest will hang dead weight.
A classic glitch is associated with bodyguards: they get stuck in doorways, move the player from his place (sometimes leads to a fall from a height), climb out onto the line of fire, fall under a hot hand and get underfoot.
This happens to one, and here there are four (excluding personal companion and Luria Lior), so you should have patience so as not to break the keyboard on the monitor in the heat of the moment.
Advice
When experimenting with mods, it is better to save to resume passing from the right place. If a player makes corrections to the root files of Skyrim: Snake Tooth, it is advisable to make a copy.
The author spent 1700 hours to create the add-on, including testing and “cutting” for releasing the release to Steam requirements. Is in the public domain: just download the Skyrim: Serpent Tooth mod, install and play. When identifying errors, it is better to take care of performance: reduce the number of programs that are simultaneously launched.
Verdict
In the unofficial DLC, everyone will find something for themselves: an island, a complex dragon with charismatic dialogs, an interesting story and an abandoned fort that can become a home.
The add-on was created with a soul and professionally adapted for TES V: Skyrim. The game is oversaturated with side quests: there are more than tasks in the main line. It is difficult to say whether the person who has passed the game is 100% alive, so it is highly likely that Skyrim: Serpent Tooth will be lost due to side quests, collecting potion components and trying to escape from the guard after killing a chicken or stealing a sweet roll.
The quest is worth passing and appreciating the beauty of the author’s idea: it was not in vain that 1700 hours were spent on a detailed study of the aspects of the supplement. Even the original soundtrack is the work of the author.
The Elder Scrolls VI will be released soon, and Skyrim will gradually recede into the past, remaining a memory of dozens of hours spent in the dark forests and snow-capped mountains of Tamriel.
