Chorrol.com _ Oblivion cheats and hints _ Guess That Quest!

Posted by: Rihanae Apr 8 2014, 01:21 PM

A GAME! Let's play!

Here are the rules:

1. You give three clues, but the clues must be from the character POV. For example. At the end of the final main quest, martin turns into a large statue of akatosh, so one clue could be 'WOW! That's a big Dragon...'

2. The quests MUST be Beth official.

3. The person to get the answer correct first wins. The person giving the clues must 'Give them the cake" cake.gif ' in order for the winner to have the next go.

4. Also, although this isn't a solid rule, try to explain the reason for your guesses.

5. You must name the quest!


LETS BEGIN! Very easy, just to warm everyone up.



***

1. Who hides in a basement?

2. Nice name for an inn :/

3. Shouldn't you be in Morrowind?

Posted by: Renee Gade IV Apr 8 2014, 01:50 PM

OOOH oooh I know this one! HOld on....

... okay my answer is Rufio!!! biggrin.gif Rufio is the man who hides in the basement of the Inn of Ill Omen. ph34r.gif Umm... I have no idea about the Morrowind bit, but that's my answer: Rufio.

WOO!! Correct!

1. Who hides in a basement? - Obviously referring to Rufio 'hiding place'

2. nice name for an inn :/ - Speaks for itself!

3. Shouldn't you be in Morrowind? - a hit-and-miss reference to the morag Tong Assasin that appears there after a certain Daedric quest.

Heres the cake.gif

(BTW for everyone, the emoticon for the cake is : cake : but without the spaces. Haha

Posted by: Renee Gade IV Apr 8 2014, 01:59 PM

Ohhh yeah, I gots some cake! cake.gif Very good. Did you bake this one yourself? smile.gif

Guess it's my turn. Hmm.. ... I'll throw a softball here. Nothing too difficult.

1). I found this strange item on my travels.

2). Sold it, and was later told I could have doubled my money.

3). Apparently there are several more to find? .. Guess I'll get to work then.


Posted by: mirocu Apr 8 2014, 02:01 PM

I guess on the Ayleid statues because they are strange and if you sold it to Umbacano you could have gotten more Septims smile.gif

It's okay, mirocu got it. As soon as he said Umbacano, I was ready to cut the cake. cake.gif There ya go, Crow. Crows do eat cake, I've seen 'em do this. smile.gif

Maybe there oughtta be a rule that the name of the quest should be given, just to clarify further? .... Like the answer to the first question would be Rufio / A Knife in the Dark. Up to the person asking the question, I guess.

Anyways, you're up, mirocu. Soon as you're done nomming.

-Whaff? Oh, a question, yes... hehe.gif I like the idea of naming the quest but sometimes you know what quest it is but can´t remember its name (like me just now) so I say either way is fine with me smile.gif


1.) I met a kind man

2.) He feels safe when he sees me

3.) The only one allowing me to stay inside his place after dark

Wouldn't diving onto the wiki count as cheating though?

If we're allowed to do that then this becomes more a scavenger hunt than a quiz if you ask me.

*shrug*

Posted by: Rihanae Apr 8 2014, 02:40 PM

I think we are an honest bunch here, so I doubt anybody would cheat. Only use it when you have a solid idea of the quest, but need to know the name of the quest.

Well I know of the quest but I've never actually done it. I'd consider looking it up cheating, so I'll leave it for someone else.

I think it shoudl be up to the person asking the question. And I think you should go ahead and look it up CT, if you have some idea of that the answer is. Even if it is cheating, we're all having fun here. It's not like there's a grand prize to Bermuda or something for getting the answer right, our only prize is cake.gif

That being said, I have no idea what the answer to mirocu's question is. Go ahead and give it a shot, CT?



Posted by: mirocu Apr 8 2014, 04:07 PM

Yeah, go for it, Thorn! And just to make it all clear I´m re-posting my clues smile.gif

Well, if y'all insist.

Could you be talking about Amiable Fanriene? The quest Falling Awake in the Shivering Isles?

Posted by: Acadian Apr 8 2014, 04:29 PM

1. The kind man is Norbert Lelles.
2. He feels safe around the Fighter who helped him.
3. The Fighter spent the night in Lelles shop to intercept the bad guys.

The quest is: An Unfortunate Shopkeeper (part of the FG quest line).

Perfect! Every clue got its answer and thus I shall treat you to no less than three (3) of these delicious cake.gif cake.gif cake.gif s! But remember to share to anyone who ask for it.. laugh.gif

Posted by: Acadian Apr 8 2014, 08:37 PM

Cheese Cake for all! Yum! So thanks, and here are three clues to a quest -

1. Yes, I'm a scout and can lead you there.
2. Talk first, then head-bashing?
3. Helping a new friend fulfill an oath of vengeance is a noble task.

2. Mazoga talking to Mogens Wind-Shifter
3. Mozoga the Orc (Quest)

Great Goolies, I knew that one but I'm away now so I thought it best to not answer... laugh.gif ...

Nice game btw... wink.gif ...Good idea...*Applauds heartily*...

CT - Great job and you are right! Cake for you, and it's your turn - cake.gif

McB - Great to see and I hope you'll stick around and play!

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 8 2014, 10:36 PM

Well, since I'm not gonna be online that much longer I might as well throw it up for anyone who wants to ask one.

1.) A long lost relic

2.) Friends turned bloodsuckers

3.) Cold..... it´s so cold....

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 9 2014, 08:24 AM

Would the quest be Blood of the Divines?

Only long lost relic I can think of right now...

I'd suspect it to be Azura's quest from 2 and 3, but Azura's Star isn't a long lost relic, having been in Morrowind...

And the Azura quest is what I thought of smile.gif I thought of it as a long lost relic since it was in Morrowind and maybe the previous games too. Maybe it´s not an actual relic but that´s the best word I could come up with atm tongue.gif

Amywhoo..... NO SOUP FOR YOU!! mad.gif

But on the other hand you get this delicious cake.gif with another cake.gif on the side! biggrin.gif

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 9 2014, 11:14 AM

Ooh! Cake! biggrin.gif

*OM NOM NOM NOM NOM*

Anyway, the question...

1) What do stormclouds have to do with anything?
2) Didn't I leave you behind?
3) You'll not find a more lethal blade


I feel I should mention that question 2 is very much specific to Tarvyn Dralor.

3 makes me think Mehrunes Razor... If you are relating it to your character then 2 could refer to the telvanni mage???? 1 isn't clear to me, but I haven't done that quest in ages...

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 9 2014, 02:06 PM

*checks rules of thread*

I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you for a quest name, as per rule 5 before I can really say anything.

Actually, scratch that. Technically you've named the DLC, so I'm gonna say that counts.

1) What do stormclouds have to do with anything?

Referencing the question you're asked, and must supply the password to

2) Didn't I leave you behind?

Tarvyn was a member of both House Telvanni and the Morag Tong, and both groups are represented.

3) You'll not find a more lethal blade

And this is, of course, a reference to Mehrunes Razor.

Funnily enough it's a weapon I'd never risk letting my characters use, for fear of spell reflection.

Well, you got it right, so here's your cake cake.gif

Your turn

Posted by: Acadian Apr 9 2014, 02:41 PM

CT, that was a good one! I never would have guessed it without the insightful logic of Vital - after he posted, it made perfect sense. goodjob.gif

And the thing is, Buffy's done that quest two or three times. We do the quest, deactivate the DLC, reactivate the DLC and can come back later to do it all over again.

Posted by: Rihanae Apr 9 2014, 04:48 PM

Ahh... good idea to move this to this page! Haha. I didn't think about the spolier aspect when I created it. Haha

Sorry for taking up space with chit-chat but I had to.. tongue.gif

-Vital, you´re up! smile.gif

Posted by: Vital Apr 9 2014, 09:27 PM

Sorry it took a while to post this. Timezones.... dry.gif

Anyway, hopefully this is OK.

1)These warriors do not rely on their own strength or skill

2)There's something strange about these goblins...

3)You've seen this town on better days

Guess Away! Remember, there's cake up for grabs biggrin.gif

Posted by: ghastley Apr 9 2014, 11:08 PM


1)These warriors do not rely on their own strength or skill
They rely on Hist Sap instead.

2)There's something strange about these goblins...
They're an hallucination caused by drinking Hist Sap

3)You've seen this town on better days
Tricky, you wake up in Chorrol before returning to Water's Edge, and it could mean either of those.

The quest is called "Infiltration".

Correct!

You got 1 and 2 spot on and 3 could've meant a few things. I was referring to the fact that you go to water's edge for the FG in the Amelion's debt quest earlier on. Maybe that was unclear as the last clue..

Anyway, here's your cake cake.gif now let's see what you've got!! biggrin.gif

Posted by: ghastley Apr 9 2014, 11:21 PM

Hmmmm....

1) When I talked to the guard, he didn't know anything until I asked about Leyawiin

2) It was wet in the cave

3) Calipers?

Posted by: SubRosa Apr 9 2014, 11:33 PM

I am having a lot of fun reading these. Once again, brilliant idea Rihane! Most I guessed right. I would answer, but I am just too darn tired to think of three questions tonight.

3) Calipers?


1) The guards mention something about Weebam-Na and the other Argonian (can't remember the name) when asked about Leyawiin. Something about a big score? I can't remember the specifics.

2) Tidewater cave. Iirc half of that place is flooded

3) Umm, it's down by Leyawiin, one of the places M'aiq turns up? I'm not really sure on this one.

I believe the quest is Nocturnal?

Posted by: ghastley Apr 10 2014, 07:33 PM

Near enough for cake cake.gif

The trolls in Tidewater Cave are Kalperklan trolls, and they all carry Calipers, for no apparent reason. wacko.gif

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 10 2014, 08:29 PM

Really? Trolls with calipers?

That's just weird laugh.gif

Right, my turn, again...

1) I don't think I'll write this in my journal

2) A treasure hunt? In these temperatures?!?

3) This is all powerful?

I'm pretty sure I'm stretching the rules with this one, and being evil to boot, but I think it's still guessable...

Posted by: Acadian Apr 10 2014, 09:03 PM

1. Ahah, a non-journal quest.
2. And one that takes place where it’s cold - likely in the lands of Lothran.
3. All powerful = omnipotent. Indeed, Circle of Omnipotence is a less than impressive reward.

This sounds like The Forgotten Chests of Pale Pass.

Posted by: mirocu Apr 10 2014, 09:21 PM

Darn it. Acadian beat me to this one tongue.gif

Posted by: Acadian Apr 10 2014, 09:50 PM

Thanks, CT. Heh, I knew that mirocu would also know that one. I think Lothran collects the teeth of Pale Pass Ogres! ohmy.gif

Okay, here goes -

1. I’m supposed to liven things up down here?
2. If I get caught, the guards'll arrest me for sure!
3. I’m an archer. What the heck do I want with another stupid staff? Although it does have sort of a pretty name.

Edit: Beefed up the clues because I realized it could have been mistaken for a quest other than the one I intended.

Posted by: ghastley Apr 10 2014, 10:13 PM

I'm going to go for the cheese, instead of the cake.

The quest it isn't is Sheogorath's

1) You're not livening things up in Border Watch - dead sheep, rats and dogs.
2) There aren't any guards in Border Watch unless you count the villagers.
3) Wabbajack doesn't have a pretty name.

I'll leave the real answer for someone else.

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 10 2014, 10:17 PM

I know the answer...

But since I asked the question before, I'll just sit and wait...

Posted by: mirocu Apr 11 2014, 11:24 AM

Aww, come on, guys! Both of you know the answer and none of you will say it?? tongue.gif

Posted by: Grits Apr 11 2014, 11:57 AM

OK, here’s my answer.

1. The Countess of Leyawiin throws regular if boring dinner parties.

2. Casting the spell Stark Reality counts as an assault.

3. The Sanguine Rose sounds much prettier than what it does! (Too bad it’s not a bow staff. tongue.gif)

Answer: Sanguine! I was wracking my brain trying to think of the name of this quest, but like Nocturnal and Azura I think it’s just named after the Daedric Prince.

Posted by: mirocu Apr 11 2014, 12:08 PM

So obvious now.. tongue.gif

Posted by: Acadian Apr 11 2014, 01:52 PM

ghastley, a special sweetroll for you - for knowing exactly the quest I was trying to avoid confusing it with.

Grits - Exactly right on all counts! Buffy knew that getting caught would have cost her knighthood. And she ever so much would have preferred that special magic chest by his shrine as a reward than a dumb staff. Cake for you, and your turn! cake.gif

Posted by: Grits Apr 11 2014, 02:57 PM

Why thank you! I remember Buffy’s careful planning for that quest. happy.gif

First things first: coffee and cake for everyone! cake.gif IPB Image

Now, here are my clues for the next one:

1. This place is an eyesore, but the deal is almost too good to be true.

2. When I find that guy we shall have words.

3. Finally, a good night’s sleep. If only I could forget what I saw in the basement…

1. Benirus Manor.

2. Velwyn Benirus. And people think used car salesmen are bad, nothing on what this guy forgot to mention

3. The hidden doorway that leads to the chamber that holds the Lich that was Lorgren Benirus

Quest: Where Spirits Have Lease

Unearthing Mehrunes’ Razor
Infiltration

Cake for Callidus! Exactly right. smile.gif

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 11 2014, 03:13 PM

More cake! Yum! biggrin.gif

Question... Question...

1) A nice reversal of fortunes

2) Be nice to his little brothers. Those ones at any rate.

3) I'm supposed to swing this? I can barely lift it!

Posted by: ghastley Apr 11 2014, 04:35 PM

Another Daedric one?

1) Reversal of fortune - Lord Drad and the Ogres.
2) Malacath's little brothers - Ogres
3) Swing that Volendrung!

So it's Malacath's quest.

Correct on all counts.

Have some cake.gif

Your turn.

Posted by: ghastley Apr 11 2014, 04:51 PM

I'll try and get away from Daedric with this one.

1) I can see something up there, but I'm too short to reach. Still, I can climb on the desk, it's my house.
2) Why did he put everything way above my head? He must have been taller than me.
3) I don't care much about the jewels, but the ring was useful!

Could it be the Rosethorn Cache? The unmarked quest in the house?

1) The note you find in the bedroom.

2) I imagine this is because it's high up, and the 'he' in question being the previous owner.

3) referring to the prizes tongue.gif

Posted by: ghastley Apr 11 2014, 05:05 PM

cake.gif for Rihanae!

Rosethorn Cache it is. The second clue referred to the Hourglass again being overhead after you had to climb for the scroll.

I´m probably wrong but it sounds like the DB quest where you kill off your own members, Black Hands to be exact I think..

I think that's a little too vague for me to say if it's right or wrong.

And that is the correct answer.

1) Why is this all so secret?

Of course referencing that you cannot tell anyone about it, and the secret meeting with Lachance.

2) A traitor?

This one's pretty self explanatory

3) All of them?

This one's pretty much to stop it being confused with any of the other DB quests that followed.

I had to look it up actually because I can´t stop confusing this quest with Purification from FO3. Though it did have the same name except for the "the".. tongue.gif

Ok, here goes..

1.) I have to go look for them myself?

2.) How many did you need??

3.) Cyrodiil will be quite quiet after this.


Pretty easy I think wink.gif

Posted by: Acadian Apr 12 2014, 10:17 PM

1. Well, you can't exactly buy them at an alchemical shoppe!
2. Oh, ten should do. . . initially.
3. Sadly, they don't grow back so, yes, their song - once silenced - is gone forever.

Methinks the quest is Seeking Your Roots.

Posted by: mirocu Apr 12 2014, 10:24 PM

And methinks you´re 100% correct! happy.gif

It´s almost midnight here but I got a cake.gif ready for you, Acadian!

Yum, thanks!

1. I don’t know how to make this request any simpler.

Ooh! I know this one

1. Said by the innkeeper who gives you this quest
2. Moss Rock Cavern is your destination. Just behind the Roxey Inn.
3. The dark arts refers to necromancy

The quest is... um... Can I google the name??

Posted by: Grits Apr 13 2014, 01:55 PM

I’m stumped on this one! Usually I can guess the quest but not quite remember the name. I’m thinking it’s an escort quest, but the last clue tells me it’s not the one I first thought. Hmm…

*brews more coffee*

This is a bit of a stab in the dark here, but: The battle for castle Kvatch?

Drive out the daedra

Looking for the Count

Savlian's retirement at the end of the quest?

Posted by: mirocu Apr 13 2014, 03:01 PM

Maybe that fits in with the first two but I´ not sure about the third clue. Either way, it´s the wrong quest entirely.

Hint: It takes place somewhere close to Imperial City.

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 13 2014, 09:23 PM

Screw it.

Almost totally blind stab at the answer:

Light the Dragonfires?

Pretty much 'cos of the third clue.

*shrugs*

Posted by: mirocu Apr 13 2014, 09:34 PM

Sorry, that´s incorrect too but it´s time to move on so I´ll say what it was; Misdirection smile.gif

First clue obviously is about getting rid of all the soldiers looking for the Grey Fox.

Second clue is where the PC steals the staff from the Mages Guild.

I have to admit my third clue was a bit wrong. I thought about Arch-Mage Traven ( the new top dog) sending the daedra to tell Lex to leave but as we know it´s actually Raminus Polus who does that. I apologize smile.gif

You can have the cake.gif because of my mistake, Callidus. Enjoy! happy.gif

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 13 2014, 09:49 PM

I actually almost went for Misdirection earlier, but the third clue threw me. I'd gotten it a little confused with Taking Care of Lex as well, which completely screwed me over on that one laugh.gif

*shrugs*

Thanks for the cake *turns back and noms cake.gif Crumbs fly everywhere*

Right, a question, and I think I'll make it an easy one.

1) Ah, the old switcheroo, eh?

2) Sneaky sneaky, want that bonus biggrin.gif

3) This'll stop that cough of yours... evillol.gif

Just don't ask what character this has its perspective written from laugh.gif

I'll try to think of one that doesn't give it away...

Posted by: ghastley Apr 14 2014, 05:53 PM

I think it's the DB quest to kill Roderick by switching his medicine for a poison.

1) The switcheroo is the bottles.
2) Usual DB "don't kill the wrong people" bonus.
3) Who knows what's really wrong with him?

I had to look up the name Bad Medecine. I always get the DB quests mixed up with their intro quests - in this case Enter the Eliminator.

Well let's try this one.

1) He's staying at the inn until his research notes turn up.
2) Oooh Shiny!
3) Notes for bottles.

Posted by: Acadian Apr 14 2014, 06:41 PM

1. Lithnilian lamenting his lost notes at the Imperial Bridge Inn.
2. His research is on living Welkynd stones! Not sure I have the stones for that, but I’ll give it a try.
3. Although gold would have been better, I guess a reward of potions for the recovered notes was fair enough.

I think the quest is ‘No Stone Unturned’.

Posted by: ghastley Apr 14 2014, 07:01 PM

I noticed that they used the same quest name in Skyrim for something completely different. I just had that added to my Journal, and it made me think of this one.

Thanks for the cake!

1. I met someone in southern Cyrodiil who showed me his collection and asked for help in adding to it.

The only one that makes sense of this is Where Spirits Have Lease.

1) The whole house for only 5000
2) The ghosts don't seem to be friendly
3) Velwyn Benirus isn't much help, except that only he can open the door.

Yes, that was the first quest, the reason he asked for the player. I can't remember the name of the other one at all. Like with the name of the cave. I always get that confused with the one near Bravil.

1. This sounds like the Dunmer lass in the SI who collects flora and fauna.
2. The list of critters she wants certainly fits that bill!
3. Sure enough, she does have holding pens for them.

I think the quest is Taxonomy of Obsession.

The Forlorn Watchman.

!. Grantham Blakely can be encountered on Bawnwatch Island every evening. He then leads one to a hill overlooking the Niben and watches eastward.
2. The place he is looking toward is called the Mouth of the Panther. Jagged rocks resembling sharp teeth stick up out of the water there.
3. There is a small cache in the river below a bandit's camp, across from an Ayleid ruin that figures in another quest.

1. 'They' are goblins from nearby Exhausted Mine. 'Her' is Kayleen Northwode.

The quest is Revenge Served Cold.

2) Big thief, isn't he?
3) And just what is this famous for?

Posted by: Acadian Apr 24 2014, 03:03 AM

1. I only put them out to get some sun!
2. Yup, ogres are big all right.
3. World famous potato bread!

The Potato Snatcher!

The cake.gif isn't as famous, but it's yours!

Posted by: Acadian Apr 24 2014, 03:45 AM

Gosh, I'm getting low on quests. tongue.gif

Let me pass the cake to anyone who'd like to give it a shot.

Posted by: haute ecole rider Apr 24 2014, 05:14 AM

All right, let me give this shot . . .

1. A nice little house with a lake view - but where is everyone?
2. Interesting journal - off to save Nirn, huh?
3. Quite an offering, but getting out can be a shocking experience!

Posted by: Lopov Apr 24 2014, 08:31 AM

Let me try...

1. An abandoned farm close to Kvatch.

2. A journal saying that he went to a nearby cave to kill the Sunken One, because he was responsible for the events at Kvatch.

3. The offering consists of some gems IIRC. The Sunken One attacks when you find out the last part of the journal and you have to kill it to get out.

The Sunken One?

Posted by: haute ecole rider Apr 24 2014, 02:19 PM

Got it in one!

Here's your cake.gif

Your turn!

Posted by: Lopov Apr 24 2014, 07:02 PM

Okay, let me try for the first time. I read the list of the quests on the previous page, so if it's complete, then the following quest should still be available

1. So this time it's in the coffin.

2. Oh, I know that arrogant bastard.

3. Looks like he travels a lot.

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 24 2014, 07:45 PM

1. The dead drop giving you the order is in a coffin

2. Alval Uvani

3. The dead drop is accompanied by Alval's travel schedule

The quest is: A Matter of Honour

Posted by: Lopov Apr 24 2014, 07:48 PM

Correct! cake.gif

Posted by: Acadian Apr 24 2014, 07:51 PM

That is so funny! I was not sure, but here's what came to mind for me:
1. In the coffin = Manduin's Amulet.
2. Arrogant bastard = Kalthar.
3. Traveling refers to Kalthar relocating from the Leyawiin MG to Fort Blueblood.

So. . . I thought perhaps the quest was the Leyawiin MG recommendation. Now, after reading CT's guess, I think he got it way better sussed out than I. I guess that's what I get for playing a guild girl instead of an assassin. laugh.gif

I see that while I was composing this, Lopov just popped on to confirm that wise CT is right. smile.gif

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 24 2014, 08:01 PM

Yay! Cake! biggrin.gif

Ugh, next question. The fact that I've not done most of the sidequests in Oblivion really counts against me here.

1. Wow, those thing really trashed the place. Dangerous hobby you have there.

2. Great, not only am I slowed down, but I've got those things following me.

3. And of course he's behind this madness. Who else would it be?

Posted by: ghastley Apr 24 2014, 08:39 PM

That looks like "Whom Gods Annoy"

1) Scamps have trashed the home of Rosentia Gallenus, who collects Daedric artifacts
2) The scamps are following the holder of the staff
3) And it's all Sheogorath's fault.

Posted by: Callidus Thorn Apr 24 2014, 08:42 PM

You got it! cake.gif

Posted by: ghastley Apr 24 2014, 08:53 PM

We're running really short of quests, but I don't think we've had this one

1) Nobody wants to help, but I will
2) But my sword's doing nothing!
3) And if I haven't seen enough of these, I get one as a reward! Oh well, have a ball.

Posted by: haute ecole rider Apr 24 2014, 11:50 PM

1. Varulae is anxious to get her mother's heirloom off the ship, but no one wants to venture belowdecks.
2. The ship is full of cutlass-wielding ghosts.
3. Your reward is yet another cutlass, this one the enchanted Redwave.

The quest is The Ghost Ship of Anvil.

Posted by: ghastley Apr 25 2014, 01:16 AM

Have a cake.gif to go with the ball.

Posted by: haute ecole rider Apr 25 2014, 01:55 AM

*nom* *nom* *nom*

[licks multicolored icing from fingers]

Okay, let's try this one.

1. Someone's got a pathological fondness for raw mutton.
2. Uh, make that six of 'em.
3. I can start my library with this.

Posted by: Acadian Apr 25 2014, 08:59 PM

1. Mutton so raw that the poor sheep are still alive!
2. I'm thinking there were six sheep below decks.
3. Part of the reward is your very own copy of that wonderful tome featuring the erotically alluring Lifts Her Tail.

I think the quest is Illegal Cargo.

Posted by: mirocu Apr 25 2014, 09:18 PM

If I may intervene here, I did Illegal Cargo a while ago smile.gif

Posted by: Acadian Apr 26 2014, 12:33 AM

Given the large number of quests covered in this successful thread, I hope no one minds a bit of recycling. tongue.gif

Posted by: mirocu Apr 26 2014, 08:29 AM

I guess that´s inevitable now. The tricky part will be to come up with clues biggrin.gif

Ignore me then.. laugh.gif

Posted by: haute ecole rider Apr 27 2014, 07:12 PM

Please forgive me for not being diligent in following up on this . . . Spring Cleaning and Work, you know . . . indifferent.gif

Anyway, I did make sure it was a quest that had not yet been submitted - thanks Grits and Acadian for that list and keeping it updated! So no, it's not Illegal Cargo. Technically the reward for that quest is an enchanted sharpened cutlass. Good try, though, Acadian!

No, it's another quest revolving around the poor sheep . . .

I´m completely stumped! sad.gif

A hint maybe...? smile.gif

Posted by: ghastley Apr 29 2014, 02:10 PM

I think I have it.

1) The sheep are being killed by bears
2) There are (at least) six of the West Weald bears - I've killed seven before, and they all have the fangs.
3) Your reward is a skill book.

And it's Bear Season.

Posted by: haute ecole rider Apr 29 2014, 02:26 PM

Got it ghastley! Here's your cake.gif!

Posted by: ghastley Apr 29 2014, 02:35 PM

Help, we're running out of quests!

I think this is a fresh one/two.

1) If it's not rats, it's Bosmers.
2) On both sides
3) And I have a secondary objective.

Extra cake available for both quests in one.

Posted by: mirocu Apr 30 2014, 07:52 AM

I would like to guess but I have no idea! sad.gif

Posted by: Grits Apr 30 2014, 11:07 AM

1. It’s a Fighters Guild quest with the wood elf Maglir.

2. The gang is made up of Bosmers. Bosmer vs Bosmer!

3. Newheim the Portly wants his stolen heirloom back.

The quests are Den of Thieves and Newheim’s Flagon!

Posted by: ghastley Apr 30 2014, 02:25 PM

cake.gif cake.gif to Grits.

Posted by: Grits Apr 30 2014, 03:42 PM

Thank you! biggrin.gif

Here’s my offering:

1. He did what? Perhaps he’s a leg man.
2. With a name like that it’s no surprise it turned out badly.
3. I hope the reward is as good as this item!


And to update our list:

Posted by: ghastley Apr 30 2014, 04:37 PM

I thought at first that this was "The Coming Storm" in SI.

1) Fimmion gives you his pants in exchange for a sweetroll.
2) The name of the quest itself is ominous.
3) This is where it breaks down. The Calming Pants have a mediocre personality enhancement; the Ring of Dessication has its Waterbreathing made useless by the Waterwalking, which prevents you getting underwater to breathe there; the Amulet of Disintegration damages your own equipment, useful only if you're trying to train your Armorer skill.

Anyhow, let's guess that, and find out later what it really was.

Posted by: Grits May 3 2014, 06:59 PM

Hmm, perhaps another clue.

3a. Getting hit with that would be a shocking experience!

Posted by: Grits May 5 2014, 12:16 PM

Well, if there was a prize for worst clues, I guess I’d win it. tongue.gif Here’s the answer:

1. Bjalfi left his wife Maeva the Buxom to go live in a fort with marauders.
2. His full name is Bjalfi the Contemptible.
3. The quest item is Rockshatter, a shock and weakness to shock enchanted mace. The reward is gold.

The quest is When the Vow Breaks.

Looks like there’s a cake up for grabs! cake.gif

Don´t be sad, Grits. It´s not always easy to come up with something good tongue.gif

But I´ll takes the cakes and give it another go!

1.) It´s pretty pretty, and cozy.
2.) Rather cold, isn´t it? And it can´t be fixed either...
3.) But at least I can buy many other things!

Posted by: Callidus Thorn May 5 2014, 03:01 PM

Unless I am mistaken, this would be: Buying a House in Bruma

1) Well,you would call it pretty, a log cabin covered in snow biggrin.gif
2) There's no fire in the hearth
3) And you can buy quite a few upgrades from Suurootan

*Noms cake triumphantly, spraying crumbs and icing everywhere*

Ahem...

1) Living statues?

2) I didn't think there were any of you in Cyrodiil!

3) Are you sure this is your place? I could swear someone else has the exact same look...

Posted by: ghastley May 5 2014, 04:59 PM

Let me guess the Peryite Daedric quest.

1) Worshippers standing like statues
2) Peryite's statue is of a dragon
3) His plane of Oblivion looks rather like Dagon's Deadlands.

Posted by: ghastley May 5 2014, 06:08 PM

(Consults ever-expanding list of quests that have already come up...)

Oh, there's one that hasn't!

1) It's an ugly-looking thing, why would anyone steal it?
2) And why would they take to the swamps?
3) And get killed in the process, before I even arrived. No wonder it was still on the body.

Posted by: mirocu May 7 2014, 07:53 AM

I´m prolly way off but I´m gonna guess on Nocturnal´s quest. Not sure it has a name even but you go fetch the eye in the swamps without needing to kill the thieves iirc.

Posted by: ghastley May 7 2014, 02:14 PM

But you don't find the eye on a dead body. Try again.

I hope somebody gets this one before I forget the answer myself! tongue.gif

Posted by: Grits May 7 2014, 09:48 PM

The only swamp one I can think of is The Renegade Shadowscale, and it doesn’t fit. Hmm..

Posted by: ghastley May 7 2014, 10:17 PM

I think this may be time to reveal:

The quest is The Bloodworm Helm (Mages Guild)

1) The helm itself is grotesque.
2) Irlav Jarol takes it to Fort Teleman in the Blackwater swamps.
3) He's dead by the time you arrive, killed by Daedra, but they didn't take the helm.
