Bandit Cutthroat

Bandit Cutthroats are bandits which can be encountered in many locations, trying to pick the lock on a treasure chest, participating in an ambush or attacking a trader and their mercenary bodyguard.

Khajiit cutthroats are present at the docks at Dro-Dara Plantation.

Skills and Abilities

Quick Strike

A basic melee attack that does minor physical damage.

Whirlwind

The enemy spins around, doing moderate physical damage to all players as indicated by a red circle. Blocking will reduce the damage taken.

Assassinate

The enemy strikes at the player's back for moderate physical damage. This attack can only be performed if the enemy is behind the player, and Assassins will often leap to get behind the player. Ensure your character is facing the enemy at all times to prevent this.

Dialogue

A Bandit Cutthroat attacking after being interrupted attempting to lockpick a treasure chest

If you interrupt one while attempting to lockpick a treasure chest:

Bandit Cutthroat: "Damn. Almost had it."

If you strike them while they're picking the lock, they'll say one of the following:

Bandit Cutthroat: "My pick! You broke my pick!"

Bandit Cutthroat: "Quick! To your feet!"

In another encounter with a cutthroat, they will call for backup when they notice you. The enforcer or strongarm will yell when they appear.

Bandit Cutthroat: "Oy! To me!"

Bandit Cutthroat: "Nocturnal's breath!"

Bandit Enforcer/Bandit Strongarm: "Die! Die! Die! Die! Die!"

If you find a captive Traveler or about to open a chest on the road, the cutthroat might speak as the bandits ambush you.

Bandit Cutthroat: "That was your last mistake!"

Bandit Cutthroat: "Here we reap, our mothers weep, it's time for sleep my boy, my boy-oh!"

Bandit Cutthroat: "This is your end, fool!"
