I am relatively new to the RPG genre. I played Betrayal at Krondor about 12 years ago on PC and that is about it. I apologize in advance if most of these questions have been answered already. I am on a router with 6 other guys in a fraternity house :speech: and my connection is terrible. Thus limiting my views of threads.

Background:

PLAYING ON XBOX. I am a level 16 Nord and am currently snooping around Solsthheim sp? (jewish island?) I have Ordinator gear with Deadric greaves, Goblin Club, and some other various crap. My medium armor is around 80 and BW 98. I have completed the Fighter's Guild and low levels in Mages, Theives, Blades, IC, Temple. Brief answers will do the trick. Questions:

Is there anything worth getting in the puzzle canal?
Ordinators keep attacking me? (I figured they will until the end)
Is there a point to going past Ghostgate this early?
Why are Cliff Racers so annoying?
I have a Grizzly Bear in a soul gem but can't use it to add paralyze to my Goblin Club. Can't add more enchantment that it can hold?
I found the airship, cave with amulet?
Weapons smugglers in Ft. Frostmoth? I killed some near the ocean.
I Exposed the priest in Ft. FM re: Booze but can't get further than that?
When should I sell my Raven Rock stock?
Killed a lot of Goblins in Ebonhart sewers, is there a boss? Took the quest from a guy at the temple.
Where can I get good medium greaves > than Deadric?
Why do slaves make me sad?
Is there a way to make a weapon/armor have greater condition?
What is good in the Dwemer Centrifuge place?
I have a bunch of expensive stuff laying around Vivec FQ plaza can I leave it there without it getting stolen?
I have a pirate key from a pirate captain in a barrow.. treasure?
How do I break the ice from the skeleton corpses in barrows.. no tools?
Better album: Blonde on Blonde or Sgt. Peppers?

Thanks and sorry for the number of questions.
Hamburglar goes robble robble.

i'm currently playing the game for the first time - early on i have come across a pilgramage quest for the temple that involves briefly entering through ghostgate but its only a few metre in.

cliff racers are just annoying but really easy to kill so just let them swoop at you and if they feel like it and get their tails or whatever for levitation potions

different items can hold different levels of enchantment depending on their quality etc.

i free all the slaves cos i feel sorry for them too

the condition of the armour/weapons again depends on their type (eg. glass breaks easily) so you have to keep repairing stuff - it only costs a little gold if you do it regularly when you come across a smith (like less than 10gp a time i have found)

if you have cleared out a house (i.e. killed the occupant in a quest), just shove your stuff in a chest there and it won't disappear - i don't think it disappears on the ground anyway ( i leave stuff and make trips back to get it to sell all the time and none has ever gone missing)

as i said, i'm new to the game too so can't be any more help

What is good in the Dwemer Centrifuge place?

Dwemer artifacts serve no purpose in the game, save when there's a quest to get one.

I have a bunch of expensive stuff laying around Vivec FQ plaza can I leave it there without it getting stolen?

Absolutely. Nothing vanishes. If you were on a PC rather than an xbox, I would suggest loading a house mod where you can store things, but on the xbox, you're limited to killing the inhabitants of a house (or cave) and putting your things away, there. Leaving them outside is fine, but the light is more consistent indoors, and you have access to chests, bags, etc. Up to you.

Jewish Island? The one with the Nords I assume...

[Quote=Hamburglar]Questions:

Only the blessing from completing the shrine bit.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]Ordinators keep attacking me? (I figured they will until the end)[/QUOTE]
If you talk to an Ordinator while wearing Indoril armour, they will attack FOREVER...
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]Is there a point to going past Ghostgate this early?[/QUOTE]
Only to complete Temple quest...
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]Why are Cliff Racers so annoying?[/QUOTE]
Because.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]I have a Grizzly Bear in a soul gem but can't use it to add paralyze to my Goblin Club. Can't add more enchantment that it can hold?[/QUOTE]
Dunno if you can enchant goblin clubs that much.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]I found the airship, cave with amulet?[/QUOTE]
Talk to guy outside Ald-ruhn mages guild.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]Weapons smugglers in Ft. Frostmoth? I killed some near the ocean.[/QUOTE]
Should get a journal entry... There are some in a cave - there is a quest. Probs haven't got it because you havent completed the booze one.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]I Exposed the priest in Ft. FM re: Booze but can't get further than that?[/QUOTE]
Check the walkthrough. (Link at end - it's rather good.)
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]When should I sell my Raven Rock stock?[/QUOTE]
Walkthrough - I don't know since I always side with Falco.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]Killed a lot of Goblins in Ebonhart sewers, is there a boss? Took the quest from a guy at the temple.[/QUOTE]
I assume you mean Mournhold... Follow Tribunal walkthrough...
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]Where can I get good medium greaves > than Deadric?[/QUOTE]
You can't. Daedric is heavy anyway... There are few medium greaves.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]Why do slaves make me sad?[/QUOTE]
I don't know why.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]Is there a way to make a weapon/armor have greater condition?[/QUOTE]
No. No mods therefore not possible.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]What is good in the Dwemer Centrifuge place?[/QUOTE]
Not sure where you mean... Dwemer stuff is valuable, but some stuff is quest related.
[QUOTE=Hamburglar]I have a bunch of expensive stuff laying around Vivec FQ plaza can I leave it there without it getting stolen?[/QUOTE]
Yes

Need an axe - you get it from the Raven Rock Quests.

Solstheim is a jewish sounding name. I understand it is a Nord island. Thanks for the info but will any axe do to break the ice on the skeletons?

No.

Yes.

Is there a point to going past Ghostgate this early?

You go past the Ghostgate to complete the main quest. If you are on the default difficulty level, 16 is more than enough.

Why are Cliff Racers so annoying?

Ask Bethesda. I use invisiblity spells.

I have a Grizzly Bear in a soul gem but can't use it to add paralyze to my Goblin Club. Can't add more enchantment that it can hold?

Items can hold only a certain enchantment value. Look in the upper right corner of the Enchanting screen. It should show something like 0/7.

I found the airship, cave with amulet?

Never done this quest.

Weapons smugglers in Ft. Frostmoth? I killed some near the ocean.

Dunno.

I Exposed the priest in Ft. FM re: Booze but can't get further than that?

It's part of the Bloodmoon main quest, are you sure you exhausted all conversation topics?

When should I sell my Raven Rock stock?

You don't.

Killed a lot of Goblins in Ebonhart sewers, is there a boss? Took the quest from a guy at the temple.

Yes. Start digging in the sewers, or just read the walkthrough.

Where can I get good medium greaves > than Deadric?

Daedric is not medium. Orcish is.

Why do slaves make me sad?

You are too soft-hearted.

Is there a way to make a weapon/armor have greater condition?

No.

What is good in the Dwemer Centrifuge place?

Where?

I have a bunch of expensive stuff laying around Vivec FQ plaza can I leave it there without it getting stolen?

You are the only thief in Morrowind.

I have a pirate key from a pirate captain in a barrow.. treasure?

No.

How do I break the ice from the skeleton corpses in barrows.. no tools?

Check Bloodmoon side quests walkthrough. It's been a long time since I last done that one.

[QUOTE=Hamburglar]I have a bunch of expensive stuff laying around Vivec FQ plaza can I leave it there without it getting stolen?.[/QUOTE]
Yes, but watch, because sometimes it will respawn.


@DW: That's just the appetite talking . . .

Hate to be a nit-picker...BUT I gotta tell you - Solstheim, Jewish my ass.

The name has more of a Germanic ring to it and the reason why you find it Jewish sounding is simply because all through the 20th century, Jewish immigrants from Germany and Eastern Europe (and other parts of Europe)have been fleeing to the states in search of freedom from persecution.

However, the "Nordic feel" (or Scandinavian "feel") is not completely out there since in Norway, names of villages ending with "heim" are quite common. It more or less means "home". The stereotyping of the Nordic people is hilarious though...

Keep it up
