I have a "?" about a Deadric shrine quest., Hermaeus Mora Options

[xycolian]

Ok, I've done every single daedric shrine quest except for Hermaeus Mora's. The only reason that I can't do Hermaeus Mora's shrine quest is that I can't even figure out how to activate it! When I ask the people around the shrine about how to activate it, they just say "you have not yet followed the path required to speak with the lord Hermaeus Mora". I guess that the shrine doesn't activate with a simple offering, but I guess that you have to follow a certain path up to the shrine. If anybody has the guide, I would appreciate it if you told me how to activate the shrine, but not how to complete the quest that Hermaeus Mora offers once you do activate his shrine

It's not it's effect that makes it the best sword in the game, but it's the fact that I'm level 47, and it has the highest attack out of any sword that I've seen so far (attack is 33).

Forgive me if i'm missing something,but if you had for example 27 damage blade enchanted with 22 Fire damage that would be 49 damage per hit,right?

49 > 33

You like ****Spoilergoldbrand?spoiler**** hehe Tournament of the ten bloods was fun.

Anyhow I guess you have a point, but to keep your sword at par with Umbra you'd have to keep recharging it, and that's a drag.

I know I've said it before, but also don't forget that the best base damage longsword (which goldbrand and/or daedric longsword fit) is really the best weapon. This is because if you are an expert at sneak, you get a 6x bonus for a hit. Umbra is a two-hand weapon which doesn't get the bonus. An enchanted longsword with a sneaky and strong blade character, you can easily get [28x6] + 22 = 190+ dmg in one hit!

you get a 6 times damage bonus at the apprentice level of sneak. Umbra was a 2-handed weapon (in Morrowind anyway) but they've made it a one handed weapon in OB, and at 125% it's attack is 33 so 33x6=198 damage (plus any poisons that may have been on the blade when you struck)
