[Ad Bot]

[Night Fox]

why would you want to start a new game after acquiring SUCH POWER

[Coolio]

I'm keeping the save, but I was playing a different race & build than my 1st playthrough, so I want to continue.

I feel great, I just tricked a Deadric lord.
Slight spoilers for a small mission perhaps.

In the house of horrors mission, before you're supposed to beat a poor old man to his death to give his soul to the Deadra, I conjured a soul trap on him, so I snatched the soul. The Deadra later says he's going to Oblivion to pick up his soul, but I stored it in a gem.

Surely being used to enchant a shield is better than being a slave to some Deadric arsehole, right?

AKA you read the wiki page on the quest and did what was mentioned in it.

personally I don't like the UESP wiki, I prefer the other one

[MegaScientifical]

"UESP is taking too long to get everything organized all beautifully like the older content on their site. I like the haphazard wiki better. :D"

They're still getting everything together in the most beautiful ways possible, not to mention that everyone's impatience has stemmed their progress.

Everyone, we just lost an art designer for Bethesda to cancer.

His name is Adam Adamowicz, he had some type of cancer and had an unexpected death recently.  Sad, I feel bad for his family.

[Night Fox]

I'm going to try UESP
I haven't used it much, but from what I just read it has more information
or maybe both?
they both seem to have some information the others don't

looking at it though, I think UESP will be my primary one now

[Tom Gunn]

I like to hit on everyone

with my pickaxe

[MegaScientifical]

I have used the Wikia one 1-2 times because the UESP one wasn't updated yet on the subject I required, but otherwise UESP has been much help for me. If some of the good editors at the UESP one could fill in the gaps, they would be good.

[Night Fox]

who was complaining earlier about there not being enough armor types?

Daedric
Dragon
Dwarven
Ebony
Elven
Glass
Hide
Imperial
Iron
Leather
Orcish
Steel
Studded
Forsworn
Falmer

there are also weapon sets for all of these except dragon, although there is also an extra weapon set, ancient nord
so
yeah

also I think there is plated steel? but not weapons obviously

[MegaScientifical]

The only Falmer 'armor' is... shields? You can't wear their actual clothing.

... Steel Plate.

hmm

[BladeOfTheHorizon]

I got the killable essential npc mod and massacred Solitude in the name of Windhelm.

[MrMcCakey]

...
then what was the problem?

I had thought I'd lost all that gold for good. Isn't a problem anymore; this conversation ends.
