The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – How to Choose Between College of Winterhold and Whiterun

If I remember correctly, the first encounter where you have to kill a dragon is after that quest where you need to get the dragon stone from Bleak Falls Barrow. The jarl wanted you to get it in order to prove that you are worthy of their trust or something, right?

If you cant defeat that "boss" draugr in the tomb at all (even with preparation such as potions), all you can do is leave the quest alone and do some other quests / kill things to level up a bit and come back later when you're stronger.

The problem with the anomalies is that they're fast, move randomly, and they're resistant to many types of damage.

As a sneaky character, I'd probably recommend working the Thieves' Guild quest line up to the end, and using Shadowcloak of Nocturnal or Shadow Warrior (100 Sneak perk) to "cheat" the backstab system. Just crouch right in front of them, and as soon as you turn invisible, mash your attack key. If you get the timing just right, you'll get credit for a backstab, even though you were fully "detected" before crouching. If you've got the dagger backstab damage perk, you can do insane amounts of damage in a single blow.

A few other general thoughts/strategies:

• If you're willing to do the Dark Brotherhood quest line, you can bring Shadowmere to the fight, who is crazy as a tank, moves fast, and can output major damage in a short period of time.
• I seem to remember them being fairly resistant to magic damage, but I did summon my Flame Atronach anyhow, who at least helped a little bit. Her attacks tend to home in, and she can fire from a distance, which can give you an advantage against the fast moving anomalies.
• The Slow Time shout might also come in handy as well.
