I've been traveling with a 100% High Elf Mage, and while I can do some ranged damage...I spend most of my time hiding around corners, healing...then coming out to spit fire/frost/lightning.

This works w/every beast I've encountered EXCEPT Dragons and....other Mages

I've only killed two dragons...the one from Whiterrun and a Dragon that made the mistake of landing in the courtyard for Winterhold...I just kept ducking behind pillars and hitting him with Firebolts.

I've also missed 3 consecutive days at the gym playing this fucking game.
