Just got drunk "apparantly" and had to retrace my footsteps including bringing back a goat i'd stolen earlier on and killing a giant, the giant was relatively easy to kill compared to this pyromancer enemy towards the end of the quest, took me loads of goes, he had a staff of fireball and just couldnt get close to him, managed to paralyse him in the end and twatted him when he was down on the floor, fecking hard though.

Thats the one, thought i was just having a drinking competition and might end up stumbling around, slighty blurred vision etc ala mass effect, obviously not.

I need to finish that quest actually. Reminds me of the Hangover.

Haha. Awesome quest. Had a drink in Whiterun and wake up in the Temple of Dibella in Markarth. Doesn't help with the city's obsession with stairs.

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #2408 on:** January 16, 2012, 07:06:21 AM »

I actually have a question about markarth.

See I did the calcelmo mission, getting the falmer translating guide, when the quest is actually complete and it comes to me getting the guide I can't seem to access the area. I thought i could get to it via the dwemer museum, pretty sure calcemo gave me the key, when I go there I come to calcelmo's laboratory. One door is barred to the left, the other door....as soon as I step through it a bounty is placed on my head and I get arrested. The arrow that points to translating guide actually tells me to exit underground keep, when I do the marker is directly outside the doors but not telling me to go through them. I look up, and it looks inaccessible and I look down and there doesn't seem to be an entry point either.

How do I get this damn guide!

Shrine of Mehrunes Dagon. Complete the quest for the guy in Dawnstar with the Mythic Dawn museum and he takes you there. There are 4 Daedra that respawn each 7 days of game time as well as some good loot.

Cheers for that. Another question for you. I've killed a few vampires already, but I came across one tonight that was apparently untouchable. Magic, shouts, power attacks, there was even a dragon attacking at the same time. Not a scratch. Any ideas? Apart from just running away until I can fast travel somewhere safe?

Yes, it involved playing games all day whilst I was on the dole.

Then I got a job.

I've got the game but I'm afraid to get going. Otherwise my life will end as will my marriage... Talk about self restrain. Or being pussy whipped...

You're a disgrace to skyrim and gamers everywhere!

Lock the missus in asda with only £50 and get on it! You'll get atleast 3 months worth of play time there.

Doesn't matter, I did it. There's a bug on ps3 version with the quest, that's why I was struggling, anyhow done now.

Gt two different characters going at the same time. Ones a nord, good one handed and block, the other is a dark elf specialising in destruction mostly, but if the option comes up for me to kill somebody I always take it. I killed a dragon before at fellglow keep after many attempts with my elf, only level 12 but really difficult, I'm level 27 with my nord and never faced a dragon so difficult.

Ugh the Forsworn. Annoying little c*nts.

I either plow through them or get pwned by their mages. They have shit gear so they aren't even good for money.

I stay out of the Reach and Markarth. Whole place just bugs me. I like the architecture in Markarth though.

Right now I got a Wood Elf thief who I just turned into a Vampire, I'm dead and loving it. Leader of the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood and not far into the main story at all.

Also have a Redguard "Battle Mage" where I dual wield Axes and Destruction spells Bioshock style. Turned him into a Warewolf which is the only way to travel. Head of the College in Winterhold, a member of the Companions and Bard's College. Also haven't even cracked the main story really.

I have to admit that I cheated and used the gold cheat because I find farming items tedious and annoying. I rationalize it to myself by saying my Thief counterfeits coins and my mage summons them.

This game is so good it's dangerous.

I've decided that I'm not ready to take on Alduin yet as he took me out with one thu'uum.

Had a similar problem with Fallout: New Vegas and Legate Lanius.

At least you got the shout yeah? Makes those random dragon encounters much less tedious and time consuming.

Beaten Alduin in Sovngrad, ending the main quest. Then I feel so empty lol. Wondering whether I should continue the Imperial - Stormcloak war and finishing up guilds quests or start a new game altogether.

Really getting annoyed with Dragons. I'm just trying to get to this random shrine in the middle of nowhere, fuck off you scaly pricks.

They are persistent and take forever to kill. Battles with them suck up potions too.

On top of that I feel compelled to hoard their drops which are heavy as hell. My whiterun house is just full of their junk.

Fighting dragons isn't as epic as it should be because I kill 5 just commuting to quests.

blah · « **Reply #2427 on:** January 20, 2012, 08:21:24 AM »

Have to agree with you. They are a bit of a let down. They're pretty formulaic, troublesome, and glitchy. Hate to say it though.

i've had it both ways, my elf/thief/DB leader cant seem to move for dragons, my archmage on the other hand has seen about 4 but has 9 shouts to unlock...

I've started a new game as a warrior/smith so i wonder how that will turn out

Dear Bethesda

How fucking hard is it to sort out a city breaking bug? For fucks sake, it's not like i'm the only one who made the simple mistake of doing the forsworn conspiracy quest in markath, and now if i have to do anything in that town i've got to sprint, hide, sneak my way to whatever simply because you've fucked up and haven't put in an option to pay off my bounty that you put onto my head in that fucking quest. It's really twatting annoying being killed in the middle of dialogue by guards who've come around the fucking corner and seen me talking to someone.

Fix it you fucking twats.

paddypower · « **Reply #2430 on:** January 20, 2012, 11:08:42 AM »

Maybe you'd like them more if they looked like this?

Well, I eventually found the wife. So that will be some regular coinage on the go, although my character is fairly minted anyway.

Dragons are fucking everywhere still though. Might focus on the 7,000 side quests that i seem to have had stacked up for a while.

Meh. Can always miss the wedding on purpose. She'll sulk back to the town she's from. Find her. Then sneak behind and stab her.
