Official Morrowind hints & tips & solutions thread!

**Hooligan!** · 06-09-2002

This thread will be useful to help anyone who is in trouble

So if you have any infos, hints or tips under your belt about Morrowind quests, share them

First tip for beginners:

Right after you met the guy who make choose your class and all, go by the door on the left and steal everything in that room (especialy silver!) and go see the Captain who give you your duties. Before entering the room where the Captain is, look in the barrel at left of the door, there's a ring, you'll have to give it to Fargoth to have better price at the local shop. DON'T STEAL ANYTHING IN THE CAPTAIN'S ROOM OR ELSE YOU WILL LOOSE EVERYTHING YOU STOLE IN THE PREVIOUS ROOM!

Do all that and you'll have a nice 200$ (less or more, but near heh) to spend on arms and armors!

can someone tell me how to get morrowind by tommorow even though its not in stores by me yet BECAUSE NEBRASKA IS A PIECE OF ****

**studepaber** · 06-09-2002

I think these creatures are called skamps (maybe skimps I donno), they are little devilish-looking monsters I first encountered around Caldera and they are resistant to normal weapons, fire, frost, and shock....How do you defeat these fiendish creatures?!?!? Any help is appreciated.. By the way I love this game and I can't stop playing, yipe! I'm only at level 2 also, ugh.

**Hooligan!** · 06-09-2002

Need to know something about the 4th quest of the Figthers Guild in Balmora.

How do I get that code book? I found the girl, but if I attack her I have to deal with every body in the tavern (South Corner tavern something like that)

If you have any hints please tell me, thanks!

Certain people in the mages guild can teleport you to the mages guild in a different city for a small fee.

After you get your skills and stuff pretty good, go into a guy's house and kill him. Take his stuff (all of it) and sell it. I got over 2k already just from 2 guys dead.

You can steal from people if they are in a spot where they cannot look at you. If you steal from right behind them, they will catch you because they can always turn around...but if you are behind a door or on the second story...then you will be safe.

I need help picking locks. I picked the lock on a house in Hla Oad. That I had no problem with. Now I have been in Balmora for around 4 hours (non-stop) and can't seem to pick a lock. I have the apprentices lock. It doesn't seem to work on anything.

I am a Dark Elf and a thief. I can sneak around and steal stuff from behind Guards backs and everything but can't open a friggin locked door. I have stolen $13,000 shields from closets about 2 feet away from priests or whatever they were with no problem.

Can someone help me with this? Please?? Do you know where I can get a better Lockpick?? Or where I can improve my lockpicking skills??

I too would like this question answered. However, I can help you with one of yours.

I had to escort this guy to Molag Mar from not far out of Seyda Neen. When I got there I spent several days exploring. There is a temple like place, and in there, there is a water and sewer works. There is also several "hang-outs" for pilgrims and such. In one of these rooms, in the temple, there were new probes and new lock picks. The probe was a quality of 1.0 instead of 0.5 I think, and the lock pick was 1.1 instead of 1.0. I stole them once, and then died, and never got back to them. Oh well, I know they're there though. They were the next level up from apprentice, journyman I think is what they were called. Anyways, search the temples of Molag Mar.

Hope that helps.

I bribed her twice (100 each time) and she gave it to me. You have to have a great disposition with her.

I found a dungeon with skamps and skellys, I had no problem killing them with my silver short sword.

Okay, find a soul gem, and get the spell soul steal (or get a scroll that steals souls). Cast soul steal on a creature (must be touching it). Kill the creature. Now the creature's soul goes into the soul gem. Now, in your inventory choose the soul gem that has the soul in it. You will now be given the option to enchant an item with the soul gem. You can only give an item a spell effect of a spell you already have.

Hope this helps

Was it enchanted??? When I tried to attack them it said resistant to normal weapons.

**Felon** · 06-10-2002

My blade is not enchanted from what I know. Just a normal silver short sword. I did expierence the the same problem you are having with some ghosts in one dungeon though.
