The Dragon Priest at the end may not attack and only strafe around the player and followers. This makes the "battle" much easier.

Wow, you're so lucky. Wish he never attacked me. Would make life so much easier for both me and my PCs.

Voehringer has given the right nod just before I could.

Ive tried all the commands too... I tried resetting, killing, resurrecting.... nothing seemed to work. I hate playing a game without a challenge. Definitely has to be some kind of mod conflict. Ive been using "The Ultimate skyrim essential list" from wabbajack but i must say I have run into a lot of bugs here and there. I just used that exact same link too! My bloodskal blade was not throwing charges like it should have so I had to use both commands on my hands to open the door manually. After that the boss bug became an issue. Do you think thats what caused it?

If you are using a list from Wabbajack, you really have to ask the author of that pack, as we have no way of knowing what they may have or may not have edited or any other changes they may have made, and therefore anything we suggest could just break things further (if the creator of the pack did not break things when they put it together). And, furthermore, it is ultimately the responsibility of the creator of the pack to provide support for their build to the people who are using it.

That is just one of the reasons we strongly recommend people not to use Wabbajack, as they are in the hands of the person who put the list together, where if a person did their own build, they would know what went into creating it, and could therefore tell us so that we could help.

I'll just add, however, that using commands to fix things is NOT a good idea - you can end up doing more harm than good, so they should be used only as a last resort. The first and best option is to load a previous save.

And while the uespwiki is probably the best site, increasingly there has been posting of misinformation on it. And, I am not the only one to have seen this lately. There is this:

.... Wiki authors have a bad habit of recommending the use of the console to "fix" problems in the game without understanding what the commands actually do. In nearly every case you end up doing irreversible damage to your save by using them.

... You have to keep in mind UESP is a wiki, and anyone with the time to spare can edit the information on it. Which means it has a lot of inaccurate bug reports that are often found to have been caused by mod issues, not the game.

Thank you for that... unfortunately I haven't edited anything.... I heard wabbajack worked to its fullest until I started using it. Granted most of it seems to do really well there are still some hiccups but I guess thats bound to happen when you have so many quests throughout the entire game.

To answer the OP. This can happen to any Dragon Priest with mods or without, even with the Unofficial patch installed. It actually happened to me with Morokei, but don't worry it won't break anything, it will just make your life easier.
yea but thats not any fun :/
