Skills and Abilities[edit]

Quick Strike
A basic melee attack that does minor physical damage.
Heavy Attack
A heavy melee attack that does moderate physical damage. It can be blocked to set the enemy off balance.
Throw Dagger
The enemy backs away from the player and throws a dagger at the player. This attack Causes snare and bleed if it connects. This attack can be interrupted to set the enemy off balance. The dagger can be blocked to prevent the snare and bleed and reduce the damage done.
Ignite
A combo move that is only performed if Archers, Fire Mages or other fire using enemies (Flame Atronachs, Scamps etc.) are around. The enemy throws a glob of tar under the player's feet as indicated by a red circle. While this does no damage, standing in it will snare the player. The Soldier will call for the other enemy to light the tar (usually accompanied by a voice clip) and the red circle will burn, doing moderate flame damage over time to enemies within the red circle.

Quest-Related Events[edit]

Speaking to any of them outside of the quest and you'll get the following remarks that are gender specific.

Before the quest: If your character is a Dark Elf:

"I hear Dark Elves are milk drinkers. Too bad. I bet a good mead would loosen your back ends enough for you to pull the sticks out of them."

Male Wood Sawyers:

"Care for a drink?"

Female Wood Sawyers:

"Good day. What are you drinking?"

During the quest, you can ask for a fight:

Do you know how to fight with those axes, or can you only beat up trees?
"Are you asking for a challenge? Shor's bones! I thought today was going to be dull."
During the brawl, they'll call out any of the following lines:
Wood Sawyer : "Come at me!"
Wood Sawyer : "This won't take long."
Wood Sawyer : "Don't be timid!
Wood Sawyer : "Try to put up a decent fight?"
Wood Sawyer : "I'll chop your head clean off!"
Wood Sawyer : "This should be fun."
If you speak to them during the quest while sober, you can only say:
I need more mead. I'll be right back..
"That's the spirit. Bring one for me."

Upon defeat, they'll say:

Wood Sawyer : "Oof! I yield, friend. Good fight!"
Wood Sawyer : "Whoa, sabre cat! Let's go back to drinking."
Wood Sawyer : "Ha ha ha! Stop! I need more mead."
Wood Sawyer : "Well, you're tougher than you look."
Wood Sawyer : "All right, you got me. Say, you're not bad!"
Upon defeat, they'll say:
"Woof! Ha ha ha! Good fight!
You'll have to find someone else to brawl with. I just need a moment to catch my breath. And stop the bleeding. And get another mead. You know how it is."

If they are the last to be defeated:

"Ah, you're a good drinking mate, friend. Come back and join us again sometime."
