Need help with Morrowind:Fighter's Guild Quest, The Codebook

[Kilik]

How do I get the codebook from Sotilude (or whatever her name is)?

[stang46]

yeah i can't seem to figure that out either. She says she knows nothing about it. I tried bribing her as well and that didn';t work either.

[Kilik]

Because I am in the thieves guild and fighters guild she says I need to know where my loyalties are. The reason she says that is because the the codebook has dirt on the Camana Tong about there skooma selling bussiness,and she is in the thieves guild and they are at war with the Camana Tong. But, the fighters Guild is run by the Camana Tong. So I have no idea what to do because the quest is given to you by the fighters guild!!!

Get her NPC up to 100 by trading with her or if your guy is good at speechcraft admire her. Once she is at 100 she will just hand it over.

Its cool, My guy can talk to anyone thats not a soilder or Guild leader and all i do is admire until they are above 80 or 90.

You can kill her(others will come to help kill you) or get her to like you 100% then ask her for it!!

The Easy way is to get her to like you!!

If your a Imperial use Voice of the Emperor on her!!

[MixMasta]

if u need any help just go to gamefaqs.com, it really hellps u with stuff on morrowind.

[zfBRAT]

Thanks, but I prefer to learn by trial and error :p

All you have to do is taunt her until she attacks you and then you don't get in any trouble once you kill her. Then you can just take the codebook and stay in the Thieves Guild and the Fighters Guild

[SiLvEr_ShAdOw_X]

Well, if you don't want to kill Sottilde, you could always do Percius Mercius's quests in Ald 'ruhn when you get to a high enough rank. If you do his bittercup quest and then talk to Eydis, you will not have to retrieve the code book. Or, you could just kill her and **** off the theives guild until you take off your debt and make ammends.

i've talked her up to a 100 and still cant manage

[zfBRAT]

I can taunt people to zero, but they never attack me...

Easy money
After traveling to Balmora in the beginning of the game, stop by Ravi'ir the traders house. A fairly heavy weapon such as axe or longsword of some sort is also required, which can be acquired from the Armorer a few shops down. Walk up to him and begin to bash his face in. You will have a decent fight on your hands -- save before undertaking this challenge. You should win if you remember to keep hacking. This slight case of murder early in the game will earn you the "Fiend Katana", and "Fiend Tanto". One is worth 9000 gold and the other is 3000 gold. You will also get three other enchanted weapons. Sell them to the Armorer across the street or keep them to have extremely powerful weapons early in the game. He also has an armory in the back of his house which can be raided and sold.

Go to the Mage's Guild in Balmora. The nice lady upstairs must not believe in safes. She has a lot of items (Soul Gems for the most part). Go downstairs and steal something minor, such as a fork. As everyone comes for you, run about in circles to avoid most of the hits. After doing this a few seconds, get past everybody and run up the stairs. With as little mistakes as possible, quickly take the things you want and exit the Guild/ Drop the items outside and find a guard. Pay him his 20 gold then retrieve the items.

For easy money early in the game, go to the Mage's Guild in Caldera. Go into the tower and go up the stairs to an unguarded table. The table is filled with alchemist equipment that range in value from 100 to 4800 gold pieces. If alchemy is a major part of your class, you can use this to help you greatly. However, if you just want the money, the best place to sell it is the alchemist in Balmera next to the Fine Clothier. She is loaded with gold and if you have not made her mad, you can get a hefty pay check.

After you are done creating your character, go over to the shelf in the first room to find a limeware platter worth 650 gold. To steal it without getting it taken away, take it then quickly press B to put it in your inventory. Then, drop it on the floor and press B .The guard will approach you and say something. Accept his offer, then look on the floor and pick the platter up, without getting into trouble. This can be done with any item on the shelf.

Keep stolen items
Use the following trick to keep your stolen items if you get caught. Rather than paying someone to relieve the bounty on your head, drop everything in your inventory, except gold, somewhere you will remember. The objects will not be removed from the game. Then, pay a guard. You will not lose your stolen items and the bounty will be gone. As an additional bonus, the person you stole from will not attack you anymore or be sour towards you

Get rid of bounty for free
Go to Balmora and join the Thieves Clan in the Southwall Cornerclub. The man at the counter downstairs can take of your bounty for a price. To get rid of it for free, drop all your money in one of the crates outside the Cornerclub. Go inside and talk to the man downstairs behind the counter. Choose to talk to him about the price on your head. Accept to pay, but since you have no money in your inventory, you will not lose anything and your bounty will be gone. Go back outside and get your money from the crate

Good armor
To get good armorer at the start of the game, get very proficient with one weapon. Then, kill one of the Ordinators in Balmora. You will have a good fight and someone may see you. Make sure you save before attempting this. Also, immediately after you start out, you can ride the Silt Stiders (travel bugs) to Vivec. Go to the Redoran Waistworks. Go to the smith located there and enter the room in the back. Close the door and you can take anything desired. He has good armor, such as the Dreugh Curiass, a medium armor with an armor rating of 60.

Spell costs
If you are short just a few gold to get a spell, you do not have to resort to stealing or selling your items. Join the Mage Guild and go to the spell you require. If it is just a few gold more than you have, keep asking the man and the price of the spell will fluctuate each time.

Avoid fall damage
To avoid damage from falling, do not jump off anything. Instead, just walk off the edge. This is helpful in getting to the bottom level of Vivec quickly

Easy skill points
To increase Acrobatics, jump as you are traveling. It will level up after 50 to 100 jumps. Jumping from building top to building top may increase this skill faster. You can also jump in place.

To increase Armor, find some enemies that do not do much damage and get hit by them. The Slaughterfish is a good choice.

To increase Athletics, run (not walk) around until your fatigue bar hits 0. Then, wait for your fatigue bar to raise to full and repeat.

To increase Block, hold Chop while using a shield and get hit by enemies.

To increase various Magicka skills (Alteration, Destruction, etc.), go to one of the Mages Guilds and look for a person that has the option of Spellmaking. For example, if you want to increase Destruction, go to a spell that is under the Destruction school, such as Fire Bite. Put the spell Firebite under Effects and set all of the things such as duration and magnitude to 1. Go around casting the spell at objects (not at people). Every time you cast it, it will go up about 3/100 points.

To increase Mercantile, buy something cheap (10 to 20 gp) and always go down on the price slightly. Then, sell it back for a little more than they desire.

No need to worry about cash in this game for mee!!! there is this scamp in this town i cant remeber what it is called and he gets 5000 dollars every few days! so what i do is get a ring of aversion (invisible) for 10 secs and steal something valuable and sell it to him, hes an idiot he sells everything for full price and he buys anything:D

[zfBRAT]

Cash is no problem for me anymore. I just kill the shop owners and keep the good stuff and sell the rest. I even have ordinator armor. As long as I don't speak to an ordinator in Vivec, I get to keep it :p
