Standing still at boss in tutorial doesn't hurt.

So the tutorial is obvisously easy but the NPC makes the mobs, especially the daedra you fight at the end, big deal.

The problem is even if you stand still, the NPC will heal you. You can't go below %90 hp.

I feel like while telling new players how to dodge and block is good. But if they can simply attack the boss of the tutorial without dodging and blocking whats the point?

I was honestly suprised that I could stand at the boss and not be in danger.

Im not asking for a really hard boss but mabye don't have the NPC constantly heal the player?

    It's wierd because they repeatedly tell you how to block, dodge and interupt but they don't show the player the downsides of not doing that.

    Maybe there's a hidden encounter here... stand still for five minutes straight and maybe the boss will up n one-shot you, straight blow to the head. :D
    if I could make another character, their name would be Cries-For-Character-Slots. AKA, I need more.

    Even if ZOS doesn't want to kill the player, they could utilize mechanics that inconvenience the player unless they follow what's supposed to be learned.

    Don't block? Get flung to the ground or up in the air. Get petrified, and practice breaking free.

    Don't dodge out of the way? Get knocked down or stunned.

    Don't interrupt? That boss will self-heal back to full and now you have to start all over again.

    It'll be a lot worse for those players if the first time they learn those mechanics are facing Xivkyn, Harvesters, and dungeon bosses.
