A Reddit user named SelectionRecent5699 has shared a funny video of them encountering a Draugr in aSkyrimdungeon. The user starts attacking the enemy, but the Draugr doesn’t seem interested in fighting and ends up running away, before stepping on a pressure plate and hilariously triggering the massive spike trap that launches it back toward the player. However, SelectionRecent5699 is not out of danger as some Draugr enemies spawn in the same area before the video ends.
Some users talk about how the Draugr simply wanted to go back to sleep, and howSkyrimplayers kept disturbing their rest. One fan compares it to howfollowers inSkyrimkeep running into similar situations while exploring dungeons, with some of them getting stuck in a loop of constantly triggering traps. A few users also mention the funny running animations of the Draugr as it steps on the pressure plate.
One fan believes it to be a scripted event, as it offers a great opportunity for developers to introduce players to dungeons traps. However, another user mentions that the actual scripted events take place when Arvel the Swift runs into a trap inSkyrimafter stealing an antique golden claw. Nevertheless, this incident seems to be a common occurrence as several fans mention witnessing a similar accident while exploring the manydungeons ofThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim.
