A speedrunner broke the record in Skyrim, reaching level 80 in a couple of minutes and defeating the most powerful opponent in the game

The author of the YouTube channel nucular set a new record in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim for killing an Ebony Warrior. To achieve this, he reached level 80 in just a few minutes.

The player started the race from the very start in Helgen, using an exploit and getting out of the city. After that, using a bug with a horse, he arrived in Windhelm and bought everything he needed to craft potions and enchanted rings. In just a few minutes, the speedrunner reached level 80, leveling up the skills Speech, Enchantment, Alchemy, Heavy Armor, Blocking, and Blacksmithing.

It is from this level that the Ebony Warrior, the most difficult enemy in Skyrim, appears in the game world. The fight did not last long — the speedrunner killed him with one blow.

The entire run from Helgen, including leveling up and battle, took only 11 minutes 47 seconds. The previous world record was held by Waz, who reached the Ebony Warrior in 14 minutes 27 seconds.

Let us remind you that recently another speedrunner completed Dragon's Dogma 2 without armor or weapons, fighting only with his fists.
