hello all,
my brother (who's too lazy to join the forum, so asked me to post for him) is stuck in the clockwork city. You know that bit where you're in a circular room and there's a horrible deadly blade that whizzes around the edge of the room and you have to run for it to get in the doorway? Well he'd gone and donated the Boots of Blinding Speed to the museum, and now he's stuck in that room and can't manage to get through the door without being killed. He says his speed is 100. Obviously he can't teleport out and he doesn't have a recent save game (so really I ought to disown him). Does anyone have any bright ideas??
By the way, if someone posts and they're not sure about anything, and somebody else ;) wants to confirm whether they're right or not, that's absolutely fine with me!!! I like a bit of confirmation, myself. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Does he have any potions that will boost his speed? In particular the elixirs from the dead fabricants can fortify speed.

Or you can do levitate and levitate over the blade. Hope your bro picked battlemage like i did [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img]

This area is part of the main quest. what part is he working on right now or is he blindly running around? Is he working for King Helseth or lady Almalexia or both in the proper order? or is he beyond all that.

You need to do console command then since you have no previous save game.

player->setspeed "500"

edit : remember to set the speed back to the original numbers after you have pass that thing.

or, if his acrobatics are high, run and jump, its so much easier. I seem to have no problem getting past this blade and i have no speed bonuses. Its all in the jump...

beans, i forgot to go into the artifact museum to plunder. my theif/assasin would have made a FORTUNE in there. guess now that i've returned to morrowind and killed dagoth ur, it might be time for me to go back and beat tribunal.

Has anyone seen that Hammer in the museum. I stole it but it was like lugging around the Statue of Liberty.

yes, but the hammer weight too much. more than 1000ibs. that means you need tons of strenght to carry it.

He should be able to run it if he times it right. Did he try running behind it?

even if you have original 100 speed you won't be able to outrun it. I've tried lots of times.

thanks everyone. I will tell lickle bruv all your advice and see if he can make it without being blenderized. I'll let you know.

Hey Promethius, I don't think there's anything in the museum except the heavy hammer and whatever you've sold/donated yourself, so I wouldn't get excited!!

Right, I'm off to freeze my butt off in Solstheim!
cheers all!

He made it thanks to the console cheat - thanks Kakero. For anyone else who gets stuck here, note that the potions weren't enough, and you can't levitate in the clockwork city. Don't donate your Boots of Blinding Speed!! lol Trouble is of course, lazy little tyke has now used the console to up all his stats to infinity and beyond, and kept them there. What a cheat, eh? Thanks to you all again! [img]smile.gif[/img]
