Skyrim - All 27 Dragon Shouts Ranked (Worst to Best)

Рет қаралды 2,679,948

Күн бұрын

A complete ranking video on all 27 Dragon Shouts in Skyrim, ranked worst to best. In today's video I explore all the shouts in Skyrim, including those in the Dawnguard and Dragonborn expansions and rank them accordingly.
Dragon Shouts also referred to as Shouts or Thu'um in the Dragon language, are an ancient form of magic. They use the vocalization of specific "words of power" to create powerful magical effects, usually for offensive purposes. Each Shout is made up of three words, however, one or two words of a given Shout may be used, but the effect is correspondingly less powerful compared to the full force of the whole shout.
This ranking is based solely on the third tier of all shouts and so doesn’t include the first and second tiers. Additionally, perks and attributes that buff the standard shout are not covered, otherwise this video would more than likely be double its length! And just to point out, this is in my own opinion and may vary for you depending on your own build, approach, your opinion in general, etc.

Hope you enjoyed the video guys! And question of the video, what’s your favourite shout and why? 🤔 *FAQs (Click 'Read more')* 👇 Q: You mention that Call of Valor only summons one hero, but this is not true, as the first and second versions of the shout summon the other two heroes? 🧙‍♂ That is correct, but what I was trying to say (which I probably should have explained better) was that Call of Valor, in any of its 3 instances, can only summon one hero at a time. It would have been much better if when shouting 2 words, 2 heroes joined you into battle, and when shouting 3 words, all 3 heroes joined you into battle (at the same time). Q: Clear skies can also negate Alduin's meteor shout and can be used to stagger enemies constantly, as its cool-down is only 5 seconds? 🧙‍♂ Yep, forgot to mention that Clear Skies could do that to Alduin's meteor shout, but didn't even think to use Clear Skies in that way to stagger opponents outdoors! It's not just aesthetically pleasing after all and further justifies its (once controversial) ranking position :) Q: Unrelenting Force wasn’t actually the first shout we ever heard in Skyrim, it was Alduin’s Meteor Shout? 🧙‍♂️ If you include the Skyrim official trailer, Fus Ro Dah was in fact the first shout heard. Q: You can essentially emulate the Throw Voice shout by shooting an arrow at a surface? 🧙‍♂ I didn't even think of that, that's pretty neat! Though, if enemies are near, they can hear the pull-back of the bowstring, so do be careful! 🤫 Also, arrows don't say "Skeever Butt!" 😉 Q: You speak slower than Hermaeus Mora himself??! 🧙‍♂ Yep, you're right lol. Sorry... should have added more cuts to my commentary! Improvements shall be made for future content - mark my words! Pro tip: increase the playback speed in the KZfaq video settings ⏩ Q: Didn’t Marked for Death get nerfed? 🧙‍♂️ Unfortunately, or fortunately, (depending at which way you look at it), yes. It was patched in the 1.6.629 update because they wanted to fix a bug in the Shadowrend CC. Marked for Death now deals 75pts of armor damage for 60 seconds and can no longer be stacked.

⁠@@stevenceja4706if you have the right spells and equipment you can summon a little army even without Durnehviir. You have 2 summons with the twin soul perk, use the first slot for the bone collossus and you can summon 2 additional skeletons on top. The second „big“ summon slot is best used for an Ayleid Lich because he summons a storm astronarch himself or ressurects strong enemies (even guards or draug deathlords) You can even enchant your armor so you can summon ANOTHER creature My little summoned army usually is bone collossus, skeleton warlock, skeleton champion, undying ghost, ayleid lich + his storm astronach havent faced anything in the vanilla game that can beat them except Karstaag and ebony warrior

Just want to note, you can talk to Paarthurnax about meditation and boost either Unrelenting Force, Become Ethereal, or Fire Breath. If you choose Fire Breath it can boost it by 25%, not very much but worth a mention at least. If you choose Become Ethereal you get 25% faster health regen while ethereal, and if you choose Unrelenting Force you get 25% less stagger done to you and 25% more stagger done to others, not just from Unrelenting Force but all sources.

When outdoors, Clear Skies actually shoots a staggering projectile just like level 1 Unrelenting Force, except it travels much faster and further, and the cooldown is only 5 seconds. It's strong enough to stagger dragons and prevent them from using breath attacks. A severely underrated shout, and legitimately one of the best combat shouts.

Lv. 1 Clear Skies is actually amazing in combat, since it staggers EVERYTHING (including dragons) and has a 5 second recharge time. Strictly better than Dragonrend for fighting non-Alduin dragons once they land. Only problems are that it only works outside and it's harder to hit multiple enemies with it than Lv. 3 Unrelenting Force. Hardly an all purpose shout but it's hilarious to trivialize Karstaag at level 1 with no skills leveled by spamming Clear Skies and using Storm Atronach staffs.

My most frequently used shouts are Aura Whisper and Ice Form, but Storm Call is among my favorites for sheer entertainment value. It's one of the best at making you feel truly powerful on a level that other mortals can only aspire to, IMHO. As an aside, it's interesting and gratifying how many of the shouts are prized for their utility rather than sheer destructive power. Any old mage can shoot a fireball, but shouts provide truly unique effects with broad applications.

One more thing about Become Ethereal shout. If you use only one word, the duration of the shout is longer than a dragon breath attack, so you can use it to nullify breath attacks from them, the cooldown from 1 word is also low enough, that it will be available again when they use the breath attack again. This is very useful early game, where you are not strong enough to tank the breath attack.

Something I learned about the Storm Call shout while tinkering with it is that it's not supposed to hit friendlies. There are conditions on the embedded magic effects that are supposed to prevent followers from being targeted, but for whatever reason, they don't work. I'm convinced that the reason the shout description says it'll hit "friends and enemies alike" is because Bethesda just couldn't figure out how to make it only hit enemies

This shout definitely gives enemies a run for their money and can do plenty of harm to your enemies. Truly one of my favorites. 4: Unrelenting Force - Why you ask? Well the uploader of the video just explained why. Plus being able to disintegrate enemies with Dragonborn Force perk is nuts. 5: Fire Breath - 1 word to describe: Awesome. Being a true dragonborn is having the ability to spit fire like the other dragon's and personally, I enjoy being able to set my foes ablaze.

Look, I know Unrelenting Force is super entertaining, but the cooldown for the third level of it is just a little too long for me to seriously put it in one of the top spots. 25 seconds, sure. Maybe 30. 45? Nah, I could think of more practical shouts to use in its place.

Honestly the weirdest fucking decisions for skyrim were when they went "hey how about we make most of this stuff useless ether after a certain level, give it to you late in the game after you have no need for it, or just make these ineffective against half the stuff you would want to use them on in a pinch" This applies to so many things but ESPECIALLY the shouts that are suppose to be the unique selling point of the game.

The idea behind the ones that only affect low level enemies coming in late is that it gives you the ability to ignore low levelled enemies. The problem with that idea is that I kill them in one hit and can then ignore them without wasting a soul.

Some interesting things is the shouts can be even more powerful if you use your alchemy leveled potions. Basically each shout are features for each magic class; Alteration, Illusion, Destruction, Conjuration and Restoration. For example fire and ice shouts are classed as Destruction so drinking a elixir will amplify the strength for that specific class. Same goes for Slow Time for Alteration and Kyne’ Peace for Illusion.

Here's my reasons for why Call of Valor should be higher on the list: Harkon is essential, healable and able to kept summoned indefinitely. He's level 30 and knows shouts like Disarm, Dragonrend and Unrelenting Force and has access to Battle Cry, the Nord racial. He is an absolute UNIT of a summon. In combination with a follower, they can take on anything the game has to offer.

@qbertking1910 2 жыл бұрын

To me it’s just a very underwhelming reward for finishing the main storyline. All you get is a new conjuration spell (essentially) which become useless when enemies become stronger than him. The shout takes a solid 2 minutes to recharge, keeping you from using any other shouts. Also, you only have a 1/3 chance of getting hakon to spawn instead of another hero. A better alternative is the spell “Summon Arniel's Shade” which summons the ghost of Arniel Gane (an immortal ghost wizard with quite powerful spells). It lasts just as long as Call of Valor & costs zero magika to cast. And since it costs no magika to cast, you can instantly replace it if it dies. It’s only downside is that it gives no xp for any interaction.

@@theWelshWizard I didn't have USSEP when I encountered the Draugr Eyes glitch, but I have it now that I can finally connect my PS4 to the internet. It was the first thing I downloaded, and boy what a disappointment it is. When you play Oblivion and ask for recommended mods the UOP is always the first on everyone's list, but USSEP is such a dumpster fire. It does fix numerous harmful bugs, but it also patches out useful exploits like Necromage Vampires, the Fortify Alchemy loop, Aspect of Terror's +10 to Fire Damage, etc. Thankfully it put Salmon Roe back after being told the high value was intentional. It also doesn't fix some bugs that have been around forever. Like the Creep Cluster bug that prevents you from harvesting them if you plant them in the garden of your Hearthfire home. (You can still plant them safely in the small single pots inside the greenhouse, just not in the garden or the big long planters.) It also doesn't touch the Flora Respawn bug which causes ingredients you have harvested to never grow back. If you pick everything in Whiterun, leave, wait 10 days, then come back you will find everything has grown back. But if you leave Whiterun without picking everything a second time and come back, the game will have forgotten that the plants were supposed to be fully regrown and everything will be bare again. It pisses me off to no end how USSEP doesn't fix that, yet there is a Flora Respawn fix for it which unfortunately isn't available on the PS4. And the latest USSEP screw up I have found is it breaks Delvin's dialog in a way that prevents him from giving you the Special Jobs. Yeah you read that right, you literally need to disable USSEP if you want to improve the Thieves Guild. If it wasn't for the genuinely harmful bugs I wouldn't have anything to do with it. USSEP is a fine example of the cure being only slightly better than the disease.
