I cant seem to kill any human npcs, I can knock them down but when I try to execute the finishing move, the npc gets up right before the animation finishes and says something like "You'll be sorry you did that" However, Gorn (he is with me at the moment) has no problem actually killing them. Is there any way to fix this? By the way I have the unoffical fan patch installed, does that have anything to do with my problem?

Thanks.

I think it does - the finishing moves animations are a bit long, but if you perform them after you knock someone out you shoud have enough time to do so. So unless you do other stuff like attacking other folks when they are down - there should be no problem.
But, if you don't want to unistal the patch you can always shoot people when they are up, either magic or convencional missiles work. Range combat is always lethal.

So is the patch the problem?, I would have no problem uninstalling it because targeting with ranged magic is just anoying (It targets every other target but the one im trying to target)

I think so, but you know - unless it's a common bug no one can give you 100% reply, becasue this could solely exost in your case. Regardless - I would say - copy your saves and try without the patch.

Yep, tried it without the patch and nothing, They just get up in the middle of the animation. If you recommend finishing them with a ranged attack, is there any way to improve the targeting? It just targets a random item thats on the ground, or if there are no items it targets the furthest guy on my right, There litterally has to be only one targetable object or it will target everything but the target im trying to hit.

I've always had trouble with the coup de grace; it's very difficult to get the game to actually do it - probably a very small area allows it to happen. In those cases, they would get up before I could find the sweet spot.

I must say it's really... strange. I remember I had enough time to kill them so... could it be that you have something wrong with your version of the game? Not to mention the targeting - I know it's... 'rough', but but never that much. I assume you can target them with point-blank range?

I found out the problem with the targetting, I bound the action key to E, which was originally bound to the turn right action and it some how rebound the E key to the turn right action while at the sametime was bound to the action key aswell.

Although I still havent fixed the orignal problem. :(

Sorry for the late reply, I've ended up beating the game with using spells to finish them off, but I apreciate your will to help others and I thank you for that.

I'm glad you managed to finish your game neverless. And no problem. :D

Bows can also finish people off too. Doesn't matter how strong it is if they're already down and out. The finishing move takes some time to do, perhaps you're not starting it fast enough or holding down the move long enough? It can also require you to be within the right positioning (close enough, etc.).
