Oblivion- Your favorite loot, places and quests

[the_dancy_vagrant]

1. How many hours did you put in?
Probably around 150 or so, it's hard to recall.

2. What were your favorite items you found? Where did you find them?
Hmmm, probably the rockshatter mace that you can pick up randomly in a cave. It's part of some quest but it's a great way to kill guys when you first find it.

3. Where were your favorite places you stumbled upon?
Eh, probably all of the shivering isles. I liked that place a whole lot, both the look of it and the fact that everyone there was completely insane.

4. And which quests made you go 'awesome'?
Oh oh, the one where you have help Glarthir in Skingrad. I loved messing with that guy. There's also the one for the dark brotherhood where you get to kill that skooma addict in the imperial city. That one was pretty funny, convincing the guy that you've got skooma and then luring him to his doom in the name of Sithis!

For the Xbox 360 I've got somewhere around 700hrs and on the PC I think I'm nearing 500hrs on my main characters. I play as a female Breton on the 360 and a Moonshadow Elf on the PC. For the 360 I made it up to level 60 legit and for the PC I should be a level 47 but I used console commands and got up to 300. My favorite item is the Mysterium Xarxes because I love the cool Oblivion-style writing. Favorite place has to be the Shrine of Sithis in Deepscorn Hollow (The Vile Lair). And I don't have one specific favorite quest but if I had to choose it would be the entire questline for the Mages Guild.

3.

Bruma. I love the snow, and Nords are so happy and easy going.

4. Hmm...Tough one. Probably "Escape from Prison".

I never skip the tutorial. Do it every time, every character. Can do it blindfolded now. Memorized item/enemy locations, too.

Let's see...


- I got 656 hours 46 minutes playing 3 characters; Redguard, Breton and Argonian

- Helm of Finn; on the ocean floor just off an island near Anvil (I found it without a walkthrough).

- The dungon where a trap is triggered by you sitting on a chair.

-Ummm.... don't know but if I had to choose I would pick the Shivering Isles quests. Why? Because I become a FU*KING GOD!

One 'Ell of a Necro, but oh well.

1) Time well spent.
Hard to tell since I have a habit of making new characters to experiment, regretting it, remaking the usual kind, repeat. Around 3 Digits I suppose.

2) Weapon of choice.
What Item did I favour? Why the Wabbajack of course. No matter what it does, it's a Riot to use.

3) Location location.
I find that frostcrag Spire to be a lovely place. Two different Views (Portal balcony and top of the Tower), Quick Access to any Mages Guild locale I needed, plus all that Snow. It's just Beautiful.

4) Quest of Quests.
I suppose that Quest would be Whodunit?, which seems to be favored by many of my fellow Escapists. I just loved when I would walk behind someone, slice my Knife through their back, then watch as another oone comes into the room and sees me hovering above a Corpse with a freshly Bloodied knife, only to walk right by me and stare at the wall. Murdering such Greedy fools was always a pleasure.

I was about to come on here and go 'Hey! I did this thread already!' but then noticed it was the same one and had been necro'd.

3500+ and counting. 360 version. Yes, 3500. Not a typo.

2.

I freaking love my Ring of Skimming.

I'm amazed you missed this the first time

I love Bruma too. The house is so cosy.

1. Not sure how many hours, but a lot.
2.Favorite item is a tie between the sword fire/frost bane (I think that's what it is called) That you get in the Shivering Isles in the dungeon.
3. I really like Skingrad and the surrounding countryside.
4. The dark brotherhood quest where you are locked in the mansion and people start dying. Love that quest!

Dawn Fang/Dusk Fang that sword does Kick proverbial and literal ass.

4. And which quests made you go 'awesome'? The whole Shivering Isles thing (except for trying to get through the doorway.) The Dark Brotherhood ones as well. I can't finish them though. I can't bring myself to kill the vampire who seems to be the ONLY character that actually compliments you. No "been summoning dead things" comments when your character could blast them from the earth!

Yeah when I was told to do that I was like "I can't do that, I can't just go in and slaughter my brothers and sisters." then about 5 minutes later I was in the sanctuary feeding everyone poison apples.

1. I wouldn't even bother trying to fathom

2.The Grey Cowl of Nocturnal, it's such a useful hat I maxed out my armor skills in a few minutes with it (and I only used 3 healing potions during the process)

3. Rosethorn Hall, I've spent countless hours decorating it with rare valuables I found during my travels there's probably enough loot in it to buy it and fully furbish it twice.

4. The whole of the Dark Brotherhood questline it was so well told and immersive, I actually felt used near the end of it and as noted before was hesitant to finish the quest after you become Lucien's Silencer.
