You only have to kill him once. So use as much magicka or any once-a-day skills that you have and go back to town once you kill him. It's an easy enough fight, even early on, if you just hold nothing back.

Have you already told us your race and sign?

I trapped some fire guy in a soul-gem, he was worth 105 soul-points. Then payed one of the mages to enchant it with paralysis for 2 seconds. Very nifty when fighting some of the more tough enemies.

The problem is now I have found better weapons.

I grabbed some ordinator armour from their barracks and also killed one of the guards so as to get some chest armour too. The fine is pathetically small for killing a guard too, only 60. Anyway, I took the loot back to Balmora and used my new cash to train continuously. I've levelled up like 5 times since I got back to the city, and been attacked by 3 assassins while resting.

Anyway, how do I get rid of $48,000 swords? I happen to have 3 of them from these assassins, but local merchants even if I guy everything they have still don't have enough money to make selling worthwhile. With my current training regimen, I am really running short on cash.

WRT your "$48,000 swords" - I would just stash them somewhere, so you can later put them on display in your house (if you get one.)

Although someone may be able to direct you to those few merchants who can afford higher transactions.

[Felch]

The ordinator trick for getting cash is pretty sweet. If you taunt them into attacking you, I don't think there's any penalty at all.

$48,000 swords, must be some sort daedric katana or something along those lines. If you find some cheaper weapons you should be able to trade them up with the Creeper in Caldera. I just use one and sell the rest, but some people like to hoard them for display.

[Verto]

Is there any bonus/benefit to having the complete set of one type of armor, such as ebony or orc?

[Felch]

I can't say for sure, but I seriously doubt think so.

[Skanky Burns]

Also, I have heard that your ability to sneak successfully is related to the boots you wear. I use the dark brotherhood ones because they are the highest armour-class light boots I have found. Do you think it would be worth using the ordinator's boots for the extra defence value?

So I put that mission on hold and headed off to Hla Oad 's pub, the Fat Legs Drop Off, to talk to Ra-Zhid about Dwemer artifiacts. I've bribed him up to 100/100 but all he says is "What Dwemer artifacts?" There's a well locked chest at his feet which I presume contains the artifacts. Last night I tried to pick the lock just to look inside...big mistake!

In regards to Fat Leg's dropoff, and the dwemer artifacts. I used an invisibility spell, and picked the lock on this one chest that was at, IIRC, 35. I also ended up killing a some people b/c for somereason, and invisibility spell doesn't render you invisible.

I grabbed some ordinator armour

that stuff freaking rules, and looks cool too.

I've had the same problem, when I use all of my codes to steal ordinator swag. You can use other items, like Felch said. I'd just generally horde them in my overflowing loot bag, at my house in Balmora. There is, in the Northwest region of the map, a Mudcrab who is loaded daown with mega cash, and will buy stuff from you at full price. He's like a big secret in the game. But I know that he exists. He is in an island heavy area, so it might take some time to find him, but it is well worth it.

Also, I have heard that your ability to sneak successfully is related to the boots you wear.

I got some shoes that fortify my sneak ability.

Can anybody tell me anything aboot the 'Dissident Priests' in Vivec?

[Skanky Burns]

Have you got a map of the general region of this mudcrab guy?

[bipolarbear]

I'll try to find it for you skanky just a moment.

[bipolarbear]

I just found out, that I am utterly and completely wrong. It is actually down toward the very southern point of the map, still amidst many islands. If you go East of Vivec you will find the area. I believe that he is located near a town called Mzahnch. I think. I know it is definitely in the very southern area.
Try exploring this, before you trapse around Morrwind

I don't think so. I'm a high elf thief, sign of the lover.

I had just a little time to play last night. I went back to Fat Legs, hid behind the post so the wizard guy couldn't see me and waited until Ra'Zhid's back was turned. No good, when I tried to pick the lock, Ra'Zhid turned on me again.

So I returned to the bridge and got killed again. However, in doing so, I learned how to "fire" my lover's kiss. I think maybe if I put it all together, I can kill that wizard. I like the idea of returning to town later for some healing.

Q: I've heard is counterproductive to join both the Fighters' Guild and the Thieves' Guild? Right now, I'm a member of the Thieves' Guild, the Mage Guild and the Blades. Other than the Fighters' Guild, is there any organization I should not join? I'd like to have more sources for quests.

[bipolarbear]

I think there is a sorceres guild in Vivec that you can join. I haven't joined yet myself, but it sure sounds tempting. I'm pretty sure that it is counterproductive to join the fighters and thieves guild. Actually it sort of can be the same for the Mages and Thieves guilds. Mainly because of one mission where the Mages want you to kill off this one guy at the Southwall who is teaching magic at discount prices. If you invest in diplomatic skills, then you can get discount prices, and save face with both guilds.
If you want free armor, and weapons then join the Imperial Legion. Although, you can usually steal from the little guard toers. If you choose to just steal imperial crap, go to the towers in Caldera.
