I read Renal bloodsometing (the one who yoshimo tells about) has boots of speed. How the hell do I get them without killing him, which also almost isn't possible because you get backstabbed to death immidiately. I tried pickpocketing him but without succes using a 100% pickpocketing score and potions etc. Can anyone give some pointers here?

You could try Cntrl-Y to kill him instantly, i never trie this though... or maybe summon a demon...

I have 250% PP.
He doesn't yield the boots.
He has them if you kill him...but not through pick pocketing!

heheh... if u pickpocket ihtafeer (rakshasa in druid grove) you get her head! ROFL!

I'll kidnap ya fer 100, reprogram ya fer 300, and kill ya fer 500! Oh come one! I'll throw in the killin' fer 250!

Summon Demon on Renel does NOT work.
As soon as Renel is damaged your fault or not, you are buggered.

if youve got your cheats enabled you could ctrl+q him to get him into your party, take all his stuff and then dump him.
Hes also got shadow armour.
You would have to do this after completing his quests though

Thanks, but I never cheat (I even wouldn't know how!). I don't think its going to work, so time to move along I guess.

Have you tried pickpocketing Ribald in the Adventurers Mart?

Yes, I got the ring but I don't think he got the boots.

just wait until you get to spellhold. The boots are in there out of this machine.
