I think I remember him casting a few spells before I got to him so he could have cast a few fortify health spells or something similar to make himself less damage resistant.

Finally beat Shivering Isles. ....meh. I'm now level 40 too. Hadn't slept in forever, so I went from 28 to 40. lol
@Oneslowz28: How far SE of Leyawinn was this bandit? What race? Was he labeled as a bandit, not a name? Did you get bounty for killing him? What mods are you running that might have added him? I'm very curious to find this guy :P
Also, the fact that he was wearing chainmail armor when your char is lvl 20+ is very odd...
On a semi-related note, has anyone else found the "Isolated House"? It seems to just be a random house out in the middle of nowhere, with two bandits living in it...well, not so much with the living anymore :twisted: but you get the idea. The weird part is that it doesn't show up on my map.
EDIT: Found a uesp entry on it; apparently it's supposed to have an Oblivion gate in it..*shrugs*
Now that is cool.Quote:

He was a shadow-scale. Maybe 2-3" almost dead southeast of layawin. He was labeled as just "bandit" I should have went to the console and got his number. I went back to find his body but its not there any more. I got no bounty at all. All I have installed is the addons that came with the GOTY edition and the Armory mod. He was honestly harder to kill than umbra.Quote:

I'm gonna guess that if you find him before accepting the quest that he just appears as the bandit that you found.Quote:

He was probably hard to kill because he was a quest item and the quest wasn't active, stuff like that has happened to me before but not to this extent.
I meant argonian I couldn't remember the actual race name. I killed the shadowscale for the argonian in the dark brotherhood a while back but this was close to his camp.
What of the news from Cyrodiil, my friends?
Still waiting for my game :(.
You better hurry up and get that game back so you can join in on the fun of killing bandits, closing oblivion gates, and enchanting weapons.
Yeah I really need to get it back, I sooooo wanna play it haha. I closed my first oblivion gate when I was level 5 haha. It was the one at Kravatch or whatever it is called, the destroyed castle.
Kavatch. Now get that darn game back. Your missing out on long shot killing of imps from hill tops.
I closed the Kavatch oblivion gate at level 20 or 30 or something. It was pretty extreme. lol
I did it at like 18 and it was tough but not hard. Those land mine things that pop up and shoot stuff out are not fun. Wish I could plant them in places like the imperial city or along roads
That would be awesome! lol
Next time someone see's one, try seeing if you can click it while in console to see if it has an item number. If it does, you can probably replicate them at will! :D
Yeah, the monsters in the gates level with you, the same as everywhere else, so yeah, nasty stuff when you do it at a high level :P
And it's Kvatch, btw.
That would be cool, spawn a whole heap in the city and blow up everyone lol.Quote:

I'd imagine it being something like the redwood forest, except with mushrooms. ...and lots and lots of hippies around every corner. lol
peace, love, and SKOOMA?
With all this talk of oblivion I truley miss it, I'll have it installed byt the end of the day I bet :P
We will see
I know, makes me wanna buy it. lol
Oblivion is one of the best games I have ever played and that is saying a lot.
Its in the news that there is another Elder Scrolls game in the make, but not within the near future.
So on one hand, YAY! But on the other hand, BOOOO. lol
please please make a new one. I would buy it
Well, judging from the time between releases, TES V should be out sometime between 2010 and 2012.Quote:

This is typical of Elder Scrolls though. They take forever to create new games, but as you can see, they're worth it once they do come out. I can't imagine what the next game will be like, they've always made leaps and bounds between games so they have a lot to live up to. Probably why its taking so long.
I can't believe it was released in 2006. It seems like FOREVER ago but its only been like 3 years. Shivering Isles was 2007.
Do you know if Bethesda will be making the new one? I hope so, they did such a good job on Oblivion.
Cheers mate.
I swear, I'm ditching this country just so I can say cheers mate without people looking at me funny. lol
I guess that's what happens on international communities, you start picking up little bits of this and that from other languages. I now say cheers mate, bloody hell and aussie aussie aussie oi oi oi on a regular basis. ...I use the last one at any and every given opportunity. Sometimes just to confuse people. lol
Edit: Oooh, I also like to say "You're a gentleman and a scholar" too. :p
...now that I think about it, I sometimes start putting u's in weird places. Like colour. I mean honestly, it just looks right. lol
AHAHAHAHA, yeah it is pretty amazing what you pick up lol.
Like the post mentioned, the Elder Scrolls line have always been very popular games. I think every one of the major games (TES I, II, III, IV) have been awarded multiple 'game of the year' awards.Quote:

Of course, I also hope that TES V (whether an MMO or not) brings back some of the stuff from Morrowind. Bring back teleport spells and transportation services, ditch fast-travel, and make armor complicated again! Oh, and if we could have darts and crossbows again, that would be awesome. And werewolves. Gotta love werewolves.
I got Elder Scrolls II free today with a magazine :D.
Heheh, nice. You can actually download both TES I and II from Bethesda Softworks' website for free. They released I for free on TES' 10th anniversary, and II on TES' 15th.
I'm hoping that the game will cover the entire continent too, except redo it all so its nice and fresh. Maybe include some old well-known places for nostalgia, except have them like in ruins or highly developed or something. Make all of the old rare armor like glass and daedric super ultra rare like a lost technology or something but totally awesome and introduce a crap ton of new never before seen equipment. Maybe add in some things like what you would find in DII where you can have socket-able equipment and gems and stuff on top of the ability to enchant.
And I definitely want it to be an MMO, especially if the game is going to be that huge. Nothing crazy like WoW, but just so there is a reasonable amount of people per server and per area that your in. I want it to be semi-rare to see other players, but not so rare that you almost never see anyone.
I also think it would be cool to see it work kinda like EVE, with players controlling at least a large portion of the workings of the world. Like, start off with smallish towns, and players can be adventurers, shop keepers, architects or artisans (TES Construction Set FTW!), or any number of things. I'd also like to see the different races actually start out in their home regions, and then they could from there either choose to live in their region or immigrate to another region. I think there's enough lore already in existence for it to be an incredibly deep game, especially if BethSoft were to draw on their fanbase to expand it.
