honestly the attacks were getting pretty annoying... i decided to start a new character for dawnguard, i was going to test the werewolf perk tree get to a decent level and then become a vampire lord and see how that played. Unfortunately master vampire kept attacking cities and killing minor quest givers, it got so bad that i decided to join the dawguard and get some revenge (poor riften, there are two permanent ash piles where the stable kid and that d-bag Aerin got killed and resurrected)...
and the random encounters are way more intense now, i was traveling through the woods near riften (near the giants grove cave) when i stumbled upon a battle between a novice conjurer, two wolves, a group of bandits, and two vampires... pretty intense battle royal, needless to say i cleaned up the survivors.
