I think skyrim without uncapper have highest caps at 85% for elemental magis it is 97,75 since you can have 85% for magic in any form + 85% for specific element - considering he could have like super buffed modded version dealing 1000000 dmg per second even highest resist + absorbtion aka dmg being only 0,34% effective would insta kill any legit game character.

When you search “help Miraak” via console commands, you can see that he has multiple NPC IDs. I do not recommend summoning any of his IDs as some lead to a potential permanent screen blurs, visual filter effects, etc. However, I still find it interesting that Miraak would have so many different copies of himself.

Miraak has different versions indeed. He also wears the same gear but with different enchantments on it. The enchantment at 4:40 on Miraaks's mask of Frost Resistance 50% and Frost spell damage by 25% increased isn't on the final version of the mask you can loot; it's only a added magicka enchantment.
How have I never heard of HorrorScoped before?! This content is awesome and the commentary is top notch! Definitely subbing!

I had a more dialogue for Serana mod and when I reached the first book I waited to see if she was going to say anything looking back and forth between her and the book, after about a minute or so I decided she had nothing to say, but as soon as I picked it up she entered dialogue with me and broke the cutscene of me getting sucked into the book and appearing in Apocrypha with Miraak, so when Miraak started talking I started stabbing.
I think the reason that he is on the tower and at the first black book spot is because that miraak is linked to a different black book which means that it probably has its own id
This is when I realized he was lifting haha thats good
The seekers blast you until you die from the damage, it takes a really long time if you are a high level, I was 261. My character was sitting there for a minute at least just taking the shots. I totally agree with how odd the cinematic is. With how much shots I could tank, I could easily take out Miraak and his minions right there. Only leveled up once during the storyline, but I totally got so much stronger for my rematch.

Pretty sure it's just a scripted length. With 1k hp and a constant 7x hp regen and 100% spell absorption, it still ends.
It's interesting that his namesake helm you loot early is the pre-release copy wherein it boosts frost resistance on top of increasing magicka, before it was changed to only provide a magicka bonus. That one is much more interesting than the one you acquire in the story.
5:20 as far as I know, Apocrypha is a worldspace the same way Tamriel is, where all the cells exist together in the same world. Cells are relatively small with "outdoor" worldspaces, so the "map" where you appear the first time reading the book is a different cell than the one where the final fight takes place, but you moving to the tower from that place still took you to the final fight cell, because the final fight cell is close enough to be visible, since they're in the same worldspace. So basically, the place where the final fight takes place is accessible by reading that first book and no-clipping, because it's a different cell in the same worldspace close by. Does that make sense?

It's a mod. All you get is the option to summon him rather than reset skill trees. Not worth it IMO
Maybe the miraak down below was some random guy that the real miraak controlled through the bend will shout or something
Miraak was one of my favorite quest lines in the whole game.
So that's why there are several sets of Mirak armor and weapons in the coc qasmoke room
Also if you use the potion glitch to create op weapons, when you attack him he soft locks because the dragons only give him a set amount of health
“So we give him an arrow for his birthday”. That line cracked me up.
I wish I could do this on the PS5 SE/AE version. I'm often stuck when fighting Miraak, unless I remember NOT to equip my most over-powered Dragonbone weapons.
Dragon born DLC is the first quest line I'm doing rn. Mostly because I need to reset on of my skill trees to work on my smithing tree
"Camped out, like a good Eagle Scout" lmao. Kudos.
reminds me of my days killing ulfric stormcloak the moment i meet him
The very first time I played Skyrim, I went to Solstheim and faced Miraak as a baby level 9 without any clue what was about to happen. I have no idea how I did it. But I took him down.
I love this. I like the energy and narration is grand. Gonna sub and bell 🛎
you killed the actor who wait at the stage while the director's away. poor guy
Got to thinking... maybe I'm the Dragonborn, and I just don't know it yet?
I liked how it showed how powerful he is because I would talk trash of how powerful I was and then miraak showed my place, until I defeated him
When you said kill miraak early, I immediately thought "what in his temple before it burnt down from dragons and he took his bitch ass over to our boy herma mora?"
The first time I played this the cutscenes bugged out and miraak stood with his back facing me and I could move. So I thought that I had to sneak up behind him and try to stab him to trigger the next part. So when I tried to kill him and nothing happened that's when I realized there was no sound and it must of crashed which it did because the next second the game completely stopped and I had to turn off my PS3.
Skyrim the best game ever made brilliant music excellent storyline absolutely outstanding still playing twelve years later just amazing xx
"But then i realized, Miraak's been lifting" XD
I'm guessing that he is considered essential according to the storyline until it's actually time to kill him.
I love that you thought to try this
i remember the first time i played, i completed all black books as soon as just possible by waiting and reloading everything on every fight, then doing quests that hint miraaks existence etc while i am just there like "what do you mean he is supposed to be one of the end bosses"

4:39 Interesting the mask of cutscene-Miraak has the effects of the Dukaan-mask (50% frost resistence and x25% frost damage) not the effect of the actual Miraak mask (+40-70 points of magicka), but the Mask you get from the Miraak-clone on the tower has the normal enchantment (you can briefly see the effects at 6:54 ). Also the armorrating of both versions is way higher than it's supposed to be 56 points instead of it's usual 23-27 points.
You can use the bend will shout on him in the final fight to turn him to your side…
That's really weird behaviour you just wouldn't expect to find.
Umm I just destroyed him TODAY and I get this video in my feed....

I just played skyrim and the cut scene with the role of the edlers vs Alduin took place. The one women lifted Alduin up and then weirdly glitched him off the mountain. Rip 😂
Hilariously, I had Better Vampires mod on, and a group of vampires spawned behind me during the cutscene as it was nighttime, causing all of the enemies to attack them, and the dragon got stuck in the floor, arse-up. I had to open console and "recycleactor" to have Miraak mount the dragon as normal. The Seekers will stop attacking you eventually, no matter how long it takes, you're scripted to leave once Miraak isn't visible anymore.
