No dragons after Alduin?
I just finished the main questline, and now I can't find any dragons. Is that part of the game where the dragons stop appearing after you defeat Alduin?
I've gone to all the dragon roosts over and over again, and there hasn't been a dragon even once. Wandered around a ton, never seen anything.
I just want to fight a legendary dragon... lol

Some people still have dragons to fight after Alduin's defeat. Those folks are expreiencing a glitch. Your dragon fighting days are over once you defeat Alduin. So if you don't have many dragon souls, then don't do main questline to completetion.

EDIT: You can still have to fight scripted dragons with Dragonborn DLC.

No, dragons will still spawn after killing Alduin, they just spawn less. This is without Dragonborn. If there are any dragon roosts you have not yet discovered, there should still be dragon there, that dragon in Blackreach should still be there if not killed, etc. Random dragons will be much rarer though.

What you wanna bet that Dragons will be back in ES6, why, because the Dragonborn didn't absorb Alduin"s soul.

Ok TES VI Alduin round 3

Most people don't know about the NAMED Dragon down in Blackreach, because they never SHOUT at the big yellow ball hanging from the roof

Well didn't knew it either till I saw some video with hidden stuff in skyrim.

sorry for not putting in SPOILER alert, but after almost 4 years since release you'd think people would know all the secrets of Skyrim.

You can't expect for ever to have something spoiler free

When i go to blackreach, i activate the two Dwarven Centurions, then shout at the ball and sit back and watch the battle between the Dragon and the two Dwarven Centurions

Ha, i did not know that.
And i'm always wasting time just looking at that thing, whenever i'm down there...

But that's what truly makes this game - there's always something new, you haven't discovered yet.
But who'd figure out, that yelling at that thing down in blackreach starts a fight with a dragon...

Thanks for all the help.

I've read somewhere that you can still do radiant quests during the last phase of the campanions, where you go dragon hunting. Can this work as a way to get a legendary dragon?

Yup. At least, i guess the dragon encounter scales with the player level with these quests as well.
But again, random dragon encounters should still occur, even after defeating Aldiun, but those quest would be better for "dragon-farming".

Ive got 3100 hours and still find new caves. I still havent done Shalidors Maze.

I'm still getting random dragon encounters every few days. Most are legendary dragons since the character I'm playing is well past level 78 (the level you will start seeing them). You can also farm dragons with the Blades radiant quests to go dragon hunting.
