Buck sir, you scared the hell out of me -- at first I thought a company ran this site. When I went to Morrowind section and found out there was payment involved, I got annoyed: "So, they're trying to make more money!" Well, it's amazing that you created and maintained this all by yourself. I'm very ...

Bound armor

Are things created via "bound cuirass," "bound helm", etc, considered Light, Medium, Heavy, or what?

Play in Insane mode. It's kind of hard at first but you get used to thieves doing 100+ damage, especially in the expansion.

Draconis is definitely more difficult, because he uses unique tactics that no other dragon has ever used before. All the other conformist dragons do use several spells, but they mainly go for melee or breaths. But this one constantly goes invisible, summons while killing off the player's, moves ...

LeFemm Armor Plugin

Two questions:
1) Is this light, medium, or heavy?
2) Is this a useful item?

Dear Network: Don't come to this site unless you are stuck and looking for help. Otherwise, you will come across spoilers that will ruin the twists and turns. Well, at least I thought so.

Enchanting

I want to enchant an item that can open any locks in the game (I've read about it somewhere..) but I don't have the slighest idea how to make one. Okay, so I get a ring, take it to an enchanter at a mage's guild, pay the gold and s/he will enchant it for me? What about the business with trapping ...

Leveling up

I've noticed that sometimes when you reach the next level, some of your attributes get a multiplying factor, e.g., x2, x3, and even up to x5. The problem is, I trained until I had 5 level ups, and when I did so I didn't get any multiplyers. So I feel like I missed out a lot of stat points... :( Is ...

Ah, I cannot provide immediate solution to your problem, but here's an advice: don't do anything weird, like "accidently" hitting people. That'll save you a lot of trouble.

Fontaine: I had the very same problems. I formatted, reinstalled OS, reinstalled BG, and patched the game. I refrained from cheating or editing. I got the latest Norton Antivirus, WinDoctor, and Security.

It still froze on load screens and the game was testing my patience to its limits.

So, I went ...

It's utterly useless, like most figurine thingies in the game. Why bother casting it when you can just walk up and whack the monsters??

I'll tell you the absolutely best way. Backup your stuff, format, re-install OS. Sure, takes an hour, but your system will be as clean as a virg.. um.. something. Anyway, it's worth it if you're desperate.

Dude, it's not that difficult. When Melissan appears, just hit her with melee characters. If you have Carsomyr, don't bother with magic; otherwise, remember to counter her defenses. In most cases, brute force is indisputably the best method in this game, in my opinion.

Here's what I did the first ...

Fighter's Guild Help

I'm on quest #3 where I went into a cave near Caldoras (?) mines and kill 4 guys there. When I came back the guildmaster keeps saying report when they're dead. But they ARE dead. Can someone tell me how to get around this?
