Welcome to Mojo Plays, and today we're revealing our picks for The Elder Scrolls' strongest
00:10
enemies and bosses.
00:15
Before we get started, we post new videos all week long, so be sure to subscribe to

00:24
Ebony Warrior, The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim
00:31
After getting to level 80, you'll be greeted by the Ebony Warrior.
00:34
They're a formidable opponent, dressed in intimidating ebony armor, hoping the Dragonborn
00:39
can send them to Sovngarde.
00:40
His armor is heavily enchanted, giving him regeneration and a bunch of resistance.
00:45
He has a whopping 2000 health, multiple immunities, and knows two shouts.
00:50
It is possible to kill him easily.
00:52
For example, Mehrunes Razor has a 2% chance to instantly kill anyone, which applies to
00:57
the Ebony Warrior.
00:58
Alternatively, you can use Unrelenting Force to fling him off of a cliff, but beating him
01:03
honorably is maybe the most satisfying fight in Skyrim.
01:07
Vivec, The Elder Scrolls III Morrowind
01:13
The warrior poet Vivec is one of the four main gods you'll meet in Morrowind, who spends
01:18
his time sitting in Vivec not doing anything useful.
01:22
He has 3000 health and 10,000 magicka, which is impressive for a god, but not quite unbeatable.
01:28
Given how abusable the mechanics of Morrowind are, it's quite easy to beat him once you
01:32
become the Nerevarine, finally getting revenge for his betrayal thousands of years ago.
01:37
Interestingly, you can finish the game after killing him, despite the warning flashes
01:41
on the screen.
01:42
The ancient dwarf Ygrom Begarn is the only character required for completion, so feel
01:47
free to destroy Vivec and take your vengeance.
01:51
Giant Slaughterfish, The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion
01:58
Slaughterfish are potentially the most annoying opponents in the series, second to only cliff
02:02
racers.
02:03
Well, fascinatingly, it turns out the Giant Slaughterfish is one of the hardest enemies
02:08
in Oblivion.
02:09
Its health is 20 times your current level, meaning at level 50 it will have an insane
02:13
1000 HP.
02:15
It can be found during the Arrow of Extraction quest, part of the Thieves Guild questline.
02:19
An extra level of difficulty comes from fighting underwater, where it's possible to drown
02:24
and you'll have barely any visibility.
02:26
It just highlights Oblivion's ridiculousness, with Morrowind's hardest enemies being literal
02:31
gods, but Oblivion's being a big fish.
02:36
Ancient Lich, The Elder Scrolls II Daggerfall
02:39
Daggerfall is one of the most difficult games in the series, primarily because of its age.
02:43
The first dungeon is notoriously difficult, but things get somewhat easier after completing
02:48
it.
02:49
You'll quit before this point, making Daggerfall, and similarly Arena, the least accessible
02:54
in the franchise.
02:55
If you're hardcore enough to power through it, you'll probably come across an Ancient
02:59
Lich.
03:00
These are incredibly dangerous and have a plethora of extreme spells they'll throw
03:03
at you.
03:04
Ranged attacks are essential, and bring plenty of potions.
03:07
On the bright side, their spells are so powerful they'll regularly blow themselves up.
03:12
If you're not lucky enough for this, then you're in for one hell of a fight.
03:16
Almalexia, The Elder Scrolls III Tribunal
03:22
After finding Sotha Sil's corpse, the Nerevarine will have to battle Almalexia, the third killable
03:27
god in the game.
03:29
She has 3,000 health, and is completely insane once the player meets her.
03:33
This is a stark contrast to how she's presented in the lore, where she's used to being caring
03:37
and compassionate.
03:38
Almalexia is indeed tough, but she doesn't feel much worse than most enemies in the game's
03:44
expansions.
03:45
This is a testament to how difficult the expansions themselves are, requiring you to thoroughly
03:49
explore the base game before starting them.
03:59
Gatekeeper, The Elder Scrolls IV Shivering Isles
04:05
Shivering Isles provided Oblivion with some of its greatest content.
04:09
Sheogorath's realm is home to many oddities, but the Gatekeeper is easily the most powerful.
04:14
He's a behemoth tasked with guarding the realm, with his body being created out of
04:18
his victims.
04:19
There are two variations of the Gatekeeper, with the second being ridiculously overpowered.
04:24
His power comes from his enormous health pool, which peaks at 1,800.
04:28
Also it's constantly regenerating, and his physical and magical attacks are both overwhelming,
04:33
with enormous range.
04:35
The first variation can be killed during a quest, but you need special bone arrows to
04:39
defeat him.
04:40
Without these, it's nigh on impossible.
04:46
Ancient Vampires, The Elder Scrolls II Daggerfall
04:50
While not as powerful as the Ancient Lich, the Ancient Vampires are harder.
04:55
They appear more frequently, and can detect you even when you're invisible.
04:58
The primary reason they're more challenging is because they don't blow themselves up,
05:02
lacking any ranged spells.
05:04
You would assume ranged weapons would be the way to go, however they're phenomenally fast,
05:09
being able to close the distance between reloads.
05:12
Spell reflection is the way to go, or you can use the Etiquette skill, convincing them
05:16
to chill out and stop trying to kill you.
05:18
It's a real shame they took out this feature, since it's pretty hilarious using charisma
05:22
to befriend enemies.
05:24
Jaegar Tharn, The Elder Scrolls Arena
05:30
Arena is generally considered tougher than Daggerfall, making it the hardest in the series.
05:35
The combat is less refined, making it more punishing, and the enemy scaling isn't optimal.
05:40
If you make it out of its hellish starting dungeon and then complete the game, Jaegar
05:44
Tharn will be your final opponent.
05:46
He's the Imperial Battlemage of Uriel Septim VII, famously portrayed by Patrick Stewart
05:51
in Oblivion.
05:52
The Staff of Chaos is his weapon of choice, which he used to banish Uriel Septim briefly
05:57
into the Oblivion realm.
05:58
Your best chance of beating him is using spell reflection and chucking his own medicine right
06:03
back at him.
06:04
If you manage to win, then you're rewarded with massive bragging rights for finishing
06:08
Arena.
06:09
Gaeanor, The Elder Scrolls III Tribunal
06:17
It's kinda ridiculous that Gaeanor, a Bosmere pauper, is arguably the strongest enemy in
06:22
Morrowind.
06:23
But it's also exactly what we'd expect from Bethesda.
06:26
Gaeanor is capable of killing Almalexia, a level 100 foe who's also a god.
06:31
He lingers outside Mournhold Temple and will ask you for a few Septims.
06:35
He'll keep asking for more, even asking for a million Septims, which you can give
06:40
him, but it'll still make him mad no matter what you do.
06:43
The next time you bump into him, he'll be wearing a complete set of ebony armor and
06:48
weapons.
06:49
Even the highest level characters can perish in a couple of hits from him, causing many
06:52
to consider the most powerful of skills, alchemy.
06:57
Karstog, The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Dragonborn
07:01
Skyrim's Dragonborn expansion added the formidable opponent Karstog, who can be considered
07:09
the toughest in the entire series.
07:11
His stats are absurdly high, with 4000 health, insane damage output, health regenerations,
07:17
and complete immunity to frost.
07:19
Maybe the easiest way to beat him is to snipe him from a distance with either spells or
07:23
arrows.
07:24
It's not that fun to take him out this way, but taking him out other ways isn't
07:28
fun either.
07:29
With such strength, he's an absolute grind to win, and it isn't even that rewarding.
07:33
All you get for beating him is the ability to summon his ghost to fight for you for only
07:37
two minutes, which can only be activated three times total.
07:42
