A Left Handed Wraithguard

Post by Sotha »

You can get a left handed wraithguard in the game that does all the stuff the normal wraithguard does, but is worth less. Did anyone else know this?

It's kinda helpful, cause you can use the Fist Of Randagulf's Strength glove and wraithguard at the same time.

You get it from Lord Vivec. Kill him, 'Strange Dwemer Artifact', go to the last living dwarf in Tel Fyr. He will ask you to do something, do it, then he will activate the enchantment.

SPOILERS:

If you haven't heard of Wraithguard you probably shouldn't be asking about it lest it spoil the entire game for you. Morrowind is the most fun the first time through when you have to learn to do everything the hard way. After that you get to know the ins and outs of the game and can manipulate it (as with most games). But if you must know read on.... You've been warned!!!!!!!









You get them from Lord Vivic who resides in the town of Vivic. Its the southern most Canton and his locked palace sits atop of the Puzzle Canal. If you did the Seven Graces quest for the Temple you donated 100 gold to a shrine right in front of the door to his palace. If not, then you haven't even played enough yet to be reading any further.

Wraithguard is an essential piece of equipment you MUST have to defeat Dagoth Ur. It must be worn so that you can safely weild two other Dwarven weapons (Keening, a short sword and Sunder, a hammer). Trying to weild either of these weapons without Wraithguard is instantaeous death. These weapons are the only tools that can be used to undo Dagoth Ur and are used to destroy his source of godly power. You must find these two weapons in the various Dwarven ruins on Red Mtn. You will be told about them at the appropriate time unless you are especially adventurous and find them ahead of time. Anyway, you get the normal Wraithguard from Lord Vivic once you've advanced the main plot far enough. If you want the alternate Wraithguard you have to kill him for it. If you want both, you have to play along with him and get the first one from him (and agree to let him train you in its use) and then kill him. You won't get the normal Wraithguard if you kill him outright. The secondary Wraithguard is a "backdoor" method of completing the game. You could, for example, just pick the locks on his door, disarm the traps, waltz in and kill him for the secondary Wraithguard whenever you feel you're ready to handle him regardless of how far you've advanced the main plot. Since Vivic is now dead you have to find someone else to train you in how to use it - that's the last living dwarf in Tel Fyr.

For that matter if you ever kill someone who is considered a "key" person for advancing the main plot you can be assured that it is still possible to finish the game. This is one of them. I've actually played the game all the way through and skipped the whole Corprus Disease thing and also skipped all the Neravarine/Horator quests. I stumbled on this by accident and it pretty much spoiled that game for me.

If you have the first wraithguard, and you decide to kill vivec anyway, take it to the dwarf. He'll tell you to do some stuff and then he'll say you aren't in prime condition to wear it. I used the add item code to add it into inventory. It looks like a white daedric gauntlet.
