Enemies here

23 enemy types: 15 undead, 7 people, 1 animal. Each links to its strength, resistances and what it carries.

Leveled ones: some enemies here are stand-ins the game fills when the area loads, each from a list, by your level. They can turn into these; the number is how many stand-ins here can give it, the most widespread first: Draugr Bane (40), Draugr Deathlord (40), Draugr Scourge (40), Draugr Wight (40), Restless Draugr (40), Draugr (39), Draugr Revenant (33), Savage Draugr (33), Hulking Draugr (18), Dragon Priest (2), Frostbite Spider (2), Draugr Bane Overlord (1).

And 4 more

Draugr Death Overlord (1), Draugr Overlord (1), Draugr Scourge Overlord (1), Draugr Wight Overlord (1).

Can come later: these start switched off, until a quest or an event brings them: Apprentice Necromancer, Ascendant Necromancer, Master Necromancer, Necromage, Necromancer Adept, Vals Veran, Wizard.

In Jay's changelog

What Jay's changelog for GTS says about it, newest revision first. A later revision can have changed it again; the rest of this page is what base GTS does now.

  • V97 One For Me, One For Takeaway: Hillgrund's Tomb had two different sets of final boss chests for some reason. This is now fixed.

From base GTS 118's own records: the winning copy of HillgrundsTombLocation (unofficial skyrim special edition patch.esp). Level: the place's encounter zone, as the records set it. The game sets a place's level from yours, kept between its lowest and highest; GTS's Encounter Zones Unlocked keeps it following you rather than fixed at your first visit. Boss: who the place's own record marks as its boss (one picked by level has no name of its own and isn't shown). People: where the game places them as a game starts; they walk about.
