I had some problems here too, but finally found a strategy that worked.

The trick is to take them on in small groups. I got pounded when I tried to take them all on at once.

Immediately at the start ofthe fight I took the entire party back to the world transition spot, and commanded them to stay ...

Indeed, there it was....thanks!

I swear Guyven said "Second North Tower" - and the location doesn't seem anywhere near a north tower. Oh well...maybe I heard him wrong....

After telling Guyven about yet another cool location, he tells me a secret about something buried near the 2nd North tower of the keep. I have searched and searched near anything that might be called a north tower (both inner and outer walls) - but haven't found anything. Is there some trick to ...

A couple of silly questions about Oblivion expansions and plug-ins...

1) The Bethesda page for downloading plugins warns that they do not install with 64 bit versions of Windows. How do I know what version I have? I assume that I do not have a 64 bit version - but it is new system... I know, dumb ...

I believe you need to be wearing an item (amulet?) you find on him?

I have never used a console command in any game - Oblivion, Morrowind, or any other. The only time I would consider doing so is if there was a glitch I could not fix.

(there may be some spoilers below)

It is indeed hard to remember how good the game is. I think many of the complaints are related to disapointed expectations - and fail to note how many expectations have been met or exceeded. A lot of my complaints are related to comparisons with Morrowind - a game ...

I mentioned something like this in another thread - but want to bring it up again. I am exceptionally disappointed by the utter sameness of the indoor environments.

Lets take caves for example - though similar points can be made for mines and temples and ruins and and forts and everything else ...

I am curious about some Doomstones which, when activated, tell me that the stars are not correctly aligned (or some such thing). This suggests they only work at certain times of the year, depending on the stars?

Am I also correct that you can have only one Doomstone power at a time - i.e., that ...

Funny, my experience was the opposite. I was getting pasted at around level 15, to the extent I had to turn my difficulty slider down a bit. I turned it back up to the default after a few levels, and had no trouble thereafter. I finished the main quest at about level 44, and frankly the gates were ...

I want to steer the conversation in a slightly different direction...

Many (though certainly not all) of the issues registered above would require additional CPU processing time - and would hence slow the game down. Oblivion already requires a high-end system, and people still complain about frame ...

Even easier than that. There is a cabinet to the right of the arena master with extra armor in it, free for the taking.

[QUOTE=HellBlazer]Okay folks I just finished the blood of the divine's quest. That said I killed all four undead blades and got ol tibers armor...now how the bloody hell do I escape the ruin?
On my map it shows the way to get back to the mountan's with a red marker.
But when i try to go ther it ...

[QUOTE=Ragin Cajun]Is it my imagination, or in MW did you just recycle soul gems? I sold a bunch early in the game empty before I got my soul trap spell but now I notice that they disappear after you use them. I sure thought that in MW it just emptied out and could be reused. Now it appears for OB ...

It happens virtually every time I play - especially if I have been playing for a long time.

As crashes go, it ain't so bad. I am quitting anyway, and it seems to have no ill effects.

This happens in virtually every RPG I play in - at some point, I always seem to have broken the bank to the point money makes no different anymore. For the recrod, I think it took me slightly longer to get there in Oblivion than in most games.

I always find it funny when I complete a quest - in ...

JUst a quick note about imersion....

I was quite imersed in the game when I started......but unfortunately that imersion has not lasted. Now that I am 100 or so hours into the game, everything is just too much the same - there is just too little variety. I feel like there is very little left for me ...

[QUOTE=RavenBlackthorn]Have you guys considered "Making" Black Soul Gems?



Hopefully this will help. :D [/QUOTE]

Actually, I was planning on trying this - though I was wondering if that option still worked after the Mage Guild quests were compoleted.

Out of curiosity, though - how would anyone ...

[QUOTE=MordorMan]Travelling around the map I often can not escape the feeling that i am walking in a park in stead of in a big unexplored land. The game is very rich in content, but in my opinion in was overdone. I would have liked a bigger land without a treasure area every third step. The feeling ...

[QUOTE=Neché]Thanx... I'll try to find them as soon as I can then :)

btw... I'm not that lucky with these shrines... I have to get a Black Soul Gem somewhere now, as a sacrifice to another shrine... And the only ones I've yet seen, is two gems I delieverd to Deetsan (or whats her name) in a mages ...
