In other words, a character with top-tier equipment and lots of spells will have an easier job killing Alduin at level 30 than a character with cloth armor and no spells at level 60. I think you should be fine – I was level 32 when I did it.
How long do I have to wait for Alduin?
24 hours
This will teach the Dragonrend shout, which is needed to defeat Alduin. Alternatively, fast travel to another location and attempt to read the scroll. After this wait for 24 hours and the quest should work as intended.
Why am I not doing any damage to Alduin?
If you do something out of order Alduin does not take damage when you confront him at the Top of the World just after learning Dragonrend. I thought it was if you didn’t let him finish talking before you attacked him but that wasn’t it. He doesn’t go invisible he just will not take damage.
What happens if you dont kill Alduin?
The beauty of the game is the ability to suspend quests indefinitely. There is no punishment for finishing the main quest at a much later time.
Does Alduin drop loot?
There is a brief moment where the option to loot Alduin’s body appears before he disintegrates, although he cannot actually be looted. It is possible, if Kahvozein’s Fang is equipped in the right hand, to harvest Dragon Heartscales.
Can you spare Alduin?
There is the option to tell Arngeir that Paarthurnax must die or that he is going to be spared. It is possible to kill Paarthurnax directly after the quest “Alduin’s Bane,” since he is no longer an essential character.
What does alduin say when he dies?
Alduin will use a shout to resurrect this dragon. He speaks the words “Slen Tiid Vo!” and a shout that looks similar to Unrelenting Force will go into the mound, causing the stone lid to crumble and burst apart.
What killed alduin?
Alduin can only be killed by the Dragonborn. Other characters will only cause him to become “downed” like essential dragons. If the Dragonborn uses Healing Hands on Alduin while he is downed, he will regain all of his health. It is possible for Storm Call to sometimes ignore Alduin while he is downed.
How do I kill alduin without killing him?
Ok, seriously? If you want to kill him without a weapon, use magic. If you count magic as a weapon, use your fists. If you count your fists as a weapon, open the console, click on Alduin, and type Kill.

You may run into Alduin when roaming around the world. He will be seen around dragon pits reviving other dragons. You can damage him, but he cannot be killed in these scenarios. The fight in Sovngarde is the final (story) battle.
When do you confront Alduin he won’t take damage?
If you do something out of order Alduin does not take damage when you confront him at the Top of the World just after learning Dragonrend. I thought it was if you didn’t let him finish talking before you attacked him but that wasn’t it. He doesn’t go invisible he just will not take damage.
How to prepare for the fight with Alduin?
Prepare for the fight. If you are already at Sovngarde there is no turning back, so hopefully you have a healthy supply of health and fire resist potions. Consider equipping armor that gives fire resist and a weapon that heals on hit (like the Ebony Blade or others with the Absorb health enchant) if you have any in your inventory.
Is it possible to defeat Alduin in Skyrim?
Skyrim suffers from many bugs. In some rare cases, Alduin may remain invulnerable the entire fight. If this happens, try reloading from a save point. If your Skyrim patch version is up to date this is less likely to occur and that game will also autosave just before the fight starts.
Is the story of Alduin hard to play?
Most of the story, including Alduin, scales very well with the player. You should not have a lot of trouble with any of the story encounters at any level, unless Bethesda meant for that particular part of the story to be hard (like the part leading to the final encounter).
