Infinite Fire Wyrms (Dragonborn)

    Was giving the Black Book bonuses some thought again and I worked out a way to have an infinitely large army of fire wyrms (until they time out, anyway).

    You will need:

    • Fire Breath Shout
    • Dragonborn Flame buff from the Epistolary Acumen Black Book
    • Reduced Shout Cooldowns (less of an issue if you have...)
    • Ahzidal's Ring of Necromancy (Optional)
    • The Ritual Stone
    • The Aetherial Crown

    Here's how you do it in a few easy steps!

    1. Find someone to kill. The more someones, the better.
    2. Make sure you're storing the Ritual Stone in the Aetherial Crown.
    3. Get all the corpses into a position where they can all be raised by the Ritual Stone power at once.
    4. Equip the Ring of Necromancy (Optional).
    5. Equip the Aetherial Crown.
    6. Use the Ritual Stone power.
    7. Use Fire Breath as soon as the corpses stand up, killing them again. Since they were raised by the Ritual Stone, their corpses don't disappear.
    8. Unequip your Aetherial Crown.
    9. Repeat steps 5-8.

    Using the Ring of Necromancy ensures that every Fire Breath (even level 1) is an instant kill!

    If I recall, the pathing for those wyrms isn't very good in some areas since flying monsters just inherantly fail with navmeshing. That said, this is completely awesome!

    I've put precisely zero thought into this power so I'm not very familiar with how it works (behind the scenes I mean) so this has me wondering. Can it be used with conjure familiar? It says when an enemy dies but that might not actually be true. Familiar's only have something like 60 health so with perks you should be able to 1-shot them with all 3 words. And I wonder if we can boost the duration of those wyrms in any way.

    This is a really cool idea. P.S. Huge props for finding a use for that awful ring!
