Hi all.. yeah i found a good way for low level players to kill umbra.

1.first attack her and lead her to the gas trap
2.jump up on the welkynd holder
3.she will start running around the holder and losing health but you will not
4.wait an hour or so with your computer on(without playing i mean do somthing else biggrin.gif )
5.when you get back to your computer she will be dead

hope you have a use of this tips

Or my way, hit her, run all the way to the Waterfront district. While making sure she keeps following you, and just watching 30 guards take her out. Laughing while she kills about 20 of them!

When my character was on level one, what I did was, after getting out of Vindessel (with hell on my heels chasing me). I jumped on Prior Maboral's horse, and run to the Imperial City. There the Imperial guards took care of her, but it was a good 10 minute's, and a dozen dead guards later. One great thing I had the sword, but at that level I couldn't carry the ebony armour.

Umbra is actually easy at any level. You need to find a place where she can't reach you with the sword. There is a broken ledge off of the walkway above where you first see her that works. Just be careful not to fall off. Keep shooting her with arrows, spells and a good staff helps - It might take a long time. Stock up on arrows, welkynd stones to recharge your staff, potions to enhance your magica and as many long range scroll spells you can get.

At first level you are probably not going to be able to use all of her armor because it will be too heavy.

Learn to block?
She is not hard at low levels... (Well weak characters...)
You can only do the quest at level 20, so wtf?
Or does she appear anyway?
shadowace
She appears at any level!

Oh good, but damn some people need to be more creative when fighting. Just attacking and throwing fireballs gets really boring.

I have a vastly easier way of killing her. You need a spell called Console.

You click "~" to get it. It's wild.

... Ignore me, I'm just being a jerk. I'm very bored.

If you're bored....go clean up your room !
Or ask Umbra to do it or you'll kill her with your mighty Console.

I was totally invisible when I killed her. She talked the talk, but couldnt see me.

Even just starting out with a new character, I found it easy to beat Umbra. I did the Mages Guild first. After I got my Mage's Staff (Paralyze), I paralyzed Umbra then bashed her head in with a sword. She was tough, though. Tried to get up after the first round. Paralyzed her again, then finished the job.

Only did that once, however. Got the Guide Book, saw I had to be a certain level, and followed the questline after that. I know there's a glitch where you can do Umbra at level 1, but I didn't see the point. It's actually more important to be in-character by doing the quests the way you're supposed to.

When I first got the game, I stumbled into her den at level 1. I was using a bow + sneak to kill all the bandits I ran up against. I saw her from the top ledge through a hole and fired a shot thinking I would kill the bandit. Nope. She ran up the stairs and all my attempts to do any kind of damage was for not. When I decided to run away, I found out that she was much faster and eventually killed me in the forest.

I did my research and later caught up with her but I was prepared for the 2nd battle. I used disentigrate armor scrolls to get past her armor to defeat her.

My tactic was this: There is a broken pillar in the room with umbra. take the basket on the table flip it upside down and use it to jump on the pillar. Take a good staff or a bow with lots of arrows and rain hell down from the pillar. Spells work 2 but you need stones or potions to recharge your mana.

Edit:My other tactic is simmilar to Leeny's It's called placing an unenchanted umbra (or self enchanted) using CS lol

I have to admit that of all the ways stated in the last "How did you Kill Umbra" thread I liked yours the best. I join the Mage guild about level 8, get a fire ball mage staff. I just hit her about 6 times or so and she dies. You might consider getting a quest item level MOD so that the quest reward items like the Umbra sword keep getting better as you level up.

go into console and kill lol.

thats my solution to everything I can't kill.

EDIT: Oh, thats already been said.

lead her to dive rock and kick her off the cliff, I did that once, and never stopped quickloading to the point before i powerattack her off teh cliff

My brother in law prefers to buy the "Truncheon of Submission" from the smith in Anvil. It drains fatigue. You hit her with that until she falls down, then switch to a different weapon. Gets her every time.

paralyze 1 sec + shock.

That's pretty much my answer to everything when I don't feel like getting battered.

Anyone tried conjuring on her?

Pickpoket & poison gas .. or talk & Push to poison gas room.
