Do I need to know all three words of fire breath for dragonborn flame to work

[Guest Daniel]

The elder scrolls wiki says no but the uesp says yes.

I have no experience with Dragon Flame, but if there is conflicting information between the wikis you should trust UESP - it is of much higher quality. I also noticed that UESP mentioned needing all words on two different pages, so it's not likely a typo.

thanks for the reply

 

i'v used the console to advance the dragonborn questline and tested my dragonborn flame with two words of fire breath on some rieklings, and the fire wyrm was summoned.

 

maybe it has to do with patches?

I just noticed that UESP says "All available words of the shout must be used." That could mean you just need to use all of the words you have unlocked. For example, if you've unlocked two out of the three words, you'd need to hold the shout button down the full length of time for the two words to be used instead of a tap for one.

 

It looks like UESP is wrong in this case on at least one of its pages. Either way, thanks for replying back with your testing. I'm sure it will help others out.
