Hassour Base Baddie

Enchantra · Post by **Enchantra** » Sun Jun 03, 2007 7:19 am

Well I plucked up the courage for my level 10 mage to go into the base and kill the baddie. When I got to who I thought was the baddie, he fell into the lava and dissapeared. I am assumming he died...but does that count as me killing him? Am I better to load a saved game and plunder his body or should I thank the lovely red stuff for making my job so easy?

Are you worried about a bounty? In that case, you can if you have one in your stats page.

Edit: Is he a hostile NPC? Are you worried you won't get your reward? Please be more specific.

Sorry he is a baddie for the sleepers quest. I am worried coz I didnt kill him or loot his body (it disapeared) that the quest will not be finished for that section.

That's a tricky one. You can't be sure he's dead just because he fell on lava. You don't die straight away by doing that, so he could be hiding out in some niche if he made it. Also, on some rare occasions, it has happened to me that my character just fell through the floor and kept falling through some weird pink space forever (scary!). So unless you see the body, I wouldn't be sure.

Ohh dear, I ran around the cave looking for him but he wasn't anywhere. I have tried to look in the lava for his body but nothing. It looked like he melted!

I like the prospect of not fighting him and getting out of the base...its freaking me out! I have gotten used to playing without sound coz it scares the poo out of me when it thunders or some scary music occurs haha!

I don't want to make the trek back to balmora then back to the base if I don't have to.

Thanks, I hope he isn't hiding waiting to stalk me or something.

The 'target' for the Hassour quest is Dagoth Fovon, who is an Ash Ghoul (not a humanoid). He's found in the Hassour shrine, not Hassour itself (there's a door in Hassour that leads to the shrine). If Dagoth Fovon was dead your journal would be updated, stating 'I have slain the dark and powerful Dagoth Fovon.' even if you don't land the killing blow yourself.

Oops ...galraen beat me to the punch...haha

Thanks, I was inside the shrine just after I stole the really expensive hammer thingy! I will check...der me I never even thought of that!

I just checked and it doesn't say I killed him. I am only guessing it was him as he was th e only character in the shrine I didnt kill and he was wearing clothes. All the other characters in he base are pretty much naked!

Ash Ghouls are pretty distinctive, having snouts instead of human faces, they also reflect spells and cast drain health on you.

And their bodies are quite a bit bigger, so if it had been an ash ghoul, you would have realized that it wasn't human.

Edit: as I remember it, I met the ash ghoul just inside the cave door, not in the shrine. But I could be mixing it up with some other place.

Well I have now cleared the place out so I think I need to retore my game as he is not there. But any other hints would be helpful. It sometimes says this quest doesn't update rom your journal so I don't know. Thanks for your help anyway.

Try going to the quest giver and see what they say if you haven't already.

Ok I never had a quest giver it was to do with the bad dreams. But I killed him again and this time I made sure I looted his body and still no message or anything so I went back to town and the people are better so I guess it has all worked out. Thanks for all your help anyway!
