Oh, real roleplayers get a nice house with their items! Having all the famous artifacts of the world in your house is so fun. If you treat the game like a real RPG, approaching it as a RPG player, it's much more fun.

Truly unique items will be kept - I am assembling a complete suit of glass armor, and ebony armor. I have collected several swords and staffs. Dwemer artifacts usually have a room devoted to them.

Actually, we need to start posting pics of our houses and collections.

I have a complete suit of ebony armour, high ordinator armour (although I left the body and leg bits in Mournhold accidently due to weight). I had glass as well but sold it before I though I should collect the pieces. Now some merchants are wearing glass boots and gloves.

[QUOTEI just spent 20 minutes going across the continent to find that mudcrab merchant, and he only has 10,000 gold! $#@%@

Where do I go to get rid of 100,000 items? Or do I have to keep them as souvenirs?[/QUOTE]

Ya, like they said.
I would personally just keep all of my more unique shizznat as a memento, or just use all of the daedric weapons as my own. Its fun to go around switching my weapons, it makes the game more exciting.

Does glass armor look cool? I know glass stuff really sucks, b/c it breaks pretty easy, but waht does it look like? Is it green like everything else that is glass?

The game world is divided into rectangular cells. When you're outside, the cell you're in and the eight surrounding cells are loaded into memory. If you move far enough away from the continent the game just remembers your x/y position and creates generic ocean cells.

I figured. I really meant, why would anybody go to such lengths.

I live in a huge castle, the Nerevarine castle, on a far off island. My treasury room has some of the finest swords for display. Also, it has two or three full ebony suits .

Pretty low - something like 600 for a full cuirass IIRC. All you really need to go with it though is the mod with the 'bound armourers hammer' spells.


There isn't really much point in dropping items far away in ocean cells - it doesn't even remove them from the game - just kill a rat or somesuch, stuff the corpse with everything you want to get rid of and wait the few days for it to moulder away into a putrescent sludge - taking everything else with it.
Much more environmentally friendly.

I cant really understand all the messing around with the creepy little scamp either - why not just edit his cash reserves to 50k or so and restrict yourself to paying him a visit once every 10 days or so ...

Here is me in my High Ordinator armour. This is better armour than even ebony! Unfortunately it is just as heavy.

I've bought back most of my glass armour pieces, but I can't remember where I sold off the body segment. Once I do, I'll have a complete set of that. I have also started collecting an adantium armour set, but only have the bracers so far.

Indoril is definitly not better than ebony. Indorils rating is 45, Ebony 60. Remember it all depends also on your medium and heavy armor rating.

And indoril is approxiamatly half the weight of ebony.

If you mean how much it protects you. The armor rating of glass is 45 (compare with above figures) and is is much lighter than above mentioned armors.

True, but I'm using HIGH Ordinator armour. Note the destinct lack of gold colouring in my armour. I'll check the ratings for both, but I'm sure they have the same weight. The HO armour is also definately stronger, with one of the pieces giving 192 protection. They are both heavy armour, so your skill doesn't affect a comparison between the two at all.

Yeah, one of the expansions.

I recorded the stats of several of the armour types.
High Ordinator (Her Hand's) armour is around 50% heavier than ebony armour but offers much more protection. Dwemer armour sucks with respect to the protection/weight ratio.

I'll have to check what the stats of the sword are later, overdosed on Morrowind today.
Its some ebony sword, longsword I think.

I've edited up the gold available for both Creeper and Mudcrab to 10x their standard value. I found that I have been spending too much time playing the "item disposal" game rather than just playing the game itself.

According to the official website, GOTY for Xbox comes with Morrowind, Tribunal and Bloodmoon. It takes a little effort to get to mournhold, though. You have to chat with some people in eboinheart after being attacked (you'll know when, I won't give away more). You then get the option to travel back and forth at will via a transport lady- you cannot walk there. Mournhold isn't a seperate land like Slothstheim (sp?)- Your position marker will still show you as being in ebonheart.

Just be warned, the armour alone will weigh you down by 317. That is without any weapon.
It looks great though.
