You're talking about the icarian flight scroll right? Balmora you say? Is this true? Balmora from where? Seyda Neen? pLease explain.

Cast scroll when in Seyda Neen, then start running in a northerly direction and jump. You will land somewhere near Balmora.

Also, join lots of guilds, but not the commona tong, they suck. Definitely mages guild, thieves guild, and fighteres guild.

I joined the fighters guild, but the current mission I have is to kill a thieves guild person. Not much problem with that (despite me being a thieves guild member), but they are saying that this helps the commona tong. Can you advance in the fighter's guild without helping the CT?

[Qilue]

Yes, but...

You have to do most of the thieves guild quests. Also, go and have a chat with Percius Mercius in the Ald'Ruhn fighter's guild about this quest.

Try killing off the Commona Tong for Larius Varro.

I found a nice little trick to get pretty much unlimited $, *****in armor, great weapons, and piss people off too. It helps a lot for this, If you are in the mages guild, becasue then you get to use their transportation system.I generally start in Balmora, and (oh yeah, this uses codes, unless you're a really good fighter.) Go to Vivec, and kill na ordinator, actually two if you have the capacity to carry most of their stuff. Well, technically 3, b/c then you can wear their armor, and that is cool, b/c it is really good. So then, go back to Balmora, and then go to the Mages guild, and go to Peligiad. Sell the stuff to Creeper. Or if you know where htat friggin mudcrab is, then sell it to her/him.
Basically just kill an Ordinator or 3 at Vivec, and steal their crap. It sells well, protects well, and looks cool.
Actually, I found a really goo wepaon too. It is the sixth house bell hammer. It has 1-50 for a chop. One hit kills are awesome.

I tried. It didn't end pretty.
I'm still only level 3 though so when I build up a bit that should help. To that end I am going through the thieves guild quests and some miscellaneous other ones along the way.

Not as far as I can tell. They're a nasty bunch, the CT. Kill 'em when you can, run when you can't. Chat with Lucius (sp?) in the fort outside Balmora for a CT-killing mission, but beware: It's really tough for a low level character.

I'm level 5 and tried that again. I managed to take a few of them down with me this time, much of an improvement from me dying while they only got a few scratches. Soon...

[Felch]

When I did it, I made sure to take them as seriously as possible. If your race has special abilities or you can summon a weapon or whatever, do it. They're killable at about level five, without any special gear, you just can't pull any punches.

The reward is pretty tight.

If I had that healing spell that lasts 60 seconds, I would have won my previous attempt. But I didn't and didn't. Not to worry, will try again.

So I see opinion is very divided amongst RPG fans.......what's the deal? Is the plot a good one?

[Verto]

I have a question, and I think the answer is yes.

When I get into fights, I sometimes am forced to...er, "strategically withdraw" to another room/area so that I may rest and heal. When I do this, does the damage I've dealt to the enemy disappear? Do they similarly go back to full health?

[Qilue]

Verto - Not usually. Sometimes you can even go to town for more supplies and then recall back and they are still have as mich damage as when you left. Sometimes they do regenerate though and I can't be certain of why.

Doc - The Plot in MW is quite good, but it does draw heavily on Elder Scrolls lore.

[bipolarbear]

Doc- I love Morrowind. The plot is good. I liked KOTOR's more. But what I really like about morrowind, is that the RPG genere is dominated by a bunch of boring turn based rpgs that are so deep in anime, you'd think you were watching adult swim. I like anime, but unless they're making a trigun videogame, I'd really rather just play rpg's that deal with more diverse worlds than just anime.

Why I love this game is because you can pretend there is no plot. There are thousands of guild and spot quests that are just as (or more) fun than the main storyline. The in-game world is huge- it took me over 4 / 5 weeks one summer to complete what seems like 25% of the quests. In every game you start in the same place and in the same situation, but after a day or two of gameplay you could think you loaded a sequel by mistake.

Jamski can outline the arguements against the game . It's not for someone who wants a straight, scripted, 2-hour storyline.
