* The tag team battle with Jon and Valonqar vs Euron and his dragon Nagga. Jon swoops in [[BigDamnHeroes to save Winterfell and the Starks in the nick of time]], (mostly) deals with Greyjoy's vampire abilities without issue, and even after he is swallowed by Nagga and Valonqar is beaten by Greyjoy, he manages to kill Nagga with a well timed Storm Call and [[CurbStompBattle curbstomps the crap out of Euron]], rescues Arlan by pulling his soul out of Euron's body and finally finishes off the vampire by biting his throat out.

* While at the Siege of the Whispers, Jon sees a Dragonsworn ship trying to escape. Not standing for it, he strips out of his armor, jumps over a hundred foot-tall cliff and into the sea in order to catch up to it. Upon boarding it, he proceeds to take over the ship (mostly with the help of Arlan Stormcrown), and makes the crew sail the ship back to the Whispers. Upon landing, he proceeds to singlehandedly turn the tide of battle in favor of his beleagured men and personally kills over a hundred Dragonsworn without using armor, Shouts, or the aid of Arlan.

* Stannis Baratheon gets one in the eighteenth omake, during which it's revealed he is in command of a thousand strong freedmen army. He passes judgement on a Ghiscari slave master, then goes on to recruit a century of Unsullied by sheer charisma. It's made all the more awesome that this was his first on screen appearance during the two year span the game has been running, turning it into an in-story EstablishingCharacterMoment.
