Finally my Assassin has reached level 30 and got all of those 'natural abilities' (Strength, endurance etc) to level 100.

He's a member of the House Hlaalu and he's eligible for an 'official' stronghold - is it worth getting (besides the experience factor?

Only thing is, I already have a stronghold (I took over the Nerano Manor in Balmora after the previous owner got into a fight. Something about him telling the wrong person that the colour green is for sissys! ).

As you can see below, my guy is quite happy in the Nerano Manor (good location, close to guilds and stilt rider etc.), so is there *any* advantage in creating a stronghold and basing myself there? Do you get a stilt rider/mage guild travel bureau? (for example) - or do you have to run back to the nearest town?

If you wamt to advance to the top in House Hlaalu, you'll have to develop a stronghold.

Besides that, the strongholds are IMO worthless as they are positioned in the middle of nowhere, so just keep your current one as base. [img]smile.gif[/img]

You gotta build a stronghold in order to reach the highest rank in house Hlaalu, other than that i won't go there very much. I prefer my Vivec residence.
