how do you gain reputation?
and what lvls should you be to be able to pick certain locks?EX(lvl35)
accidentally kill a guy(soldier) pay the bounty off, but why do the other soldiers still attack me?

well, your reputation with the other soldiers is kind of in the toilet, hon. i don't think they liked that one bit.

hmmm, i could pick a lvl 35 lock from the start, because i bought a set of Journeyman lockpicks. they are supposed to be good up to level 50, i think. i have had success with a lvl 35 lock using an Apprentice lockpick, too, but had to try a kajillion times. LOL! no really. i did. i think i went thru nearly 25 picks to do it.

i find i pick easier if i'm in sneak mode. might just be this highly overactive imagination i have, luv. dunno.

what sign did you pick, btw? i got the Tower, so that i can fall back on that in extreme cases!

V***V

Haven't killed anyone yet but read somewhere that if the solders / police types get down on you the entire country's law and order is after you.

I would think you might want to go back to an earlier save game or just start over. I am on my third start in two weeks. [img]smile.gif[/img]

As to lockpicks. Vesselle was right on the dime. You got to get a better pick than apprentice.

I ran across a Master pick in a dungeon and it is a corker for opening locks.:]

I like the way you think theifprowess! I didn't do anything either, except duke it out with some farmer god knows where. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Anyway, mybe a reload at this point and might be good or lose a couple of hours of play and just start over. Not many people here have started over again ,cough, but it might be nice to start out with a clean slate here...up to you! Let us know.

to kill or not to kill, go get a fireball spell, go up to the
top of the light house in the first town. fireball is a long
distance shootter, shoot at a commoner, wait till they come to you.
they will be down below you, flame and kill them, the cops will not
care as long as your not shotting at them. I killed all the commons and no bad reputations.

Only 6 times vessella? I restart new games for 9 times. This is because there are always something seems to be wrong with my character after my have played it for a while. like this skill shouldn't be in major or something like that.

~~kakero~~

don't jump the gun too much. just THIS game 6 times. that's because i have waited for this game for 3 years and spent a lot of time researching just how i wanted to play it.

::hides:: okay, i'm pathetic. i know. waiting for a game that long. ::sighs:: i can't help it, and you guys should understand.

the only thing that really threw me off was a friend has designed some plugin new races and i have been trying them out, too. he likes the shorter races: dwarves, hobbits, gnomes and goblins. quite fun so far. i'm running a gnomish spellsword type next to Vesselle the Assassin this trip.

Just one time really! Same Nord

Look, the farmer came out of his field from no-where, screaming and yelling at me for eating a simple turnip. He threw down on me all bad faced so I didn't even pull my sword... just hand to hand. .. he was getting me bad with the right crosses.Bam, Bam .an upper cut. sure knock me down then...

I had to finish it then and I think the land would have gone unattended from there.

(how could I screw up such a simple quest I thought [img]smile.gif[/img] )
