Official Oblivion resource center...

There is a really cheap house opposite of the imperial harbor, where you find all the cottages. I recommend doing only sidequests until you're above lvl 20, because at that moment the loot will be very good, especially in the Realms of Oblivion.

And I wouldn't store your items in any of the guilds since the game can delete them at any time. I had this when I stored tons of items in a drawer of the fighters guild. (It took me 30 seconds to load the damn item window^^) All of a sudden the items were gone and were replaced with the drawers default item set. I had to move all my items to a house I bought, took me 2 hours to transfer it all :s

How do you specifically store items in a drawer, bookcase or cabinet? I couldn't figure that out.

All of my items are in a heap on the floor.

Open the furniture that you want to put the items in. Then press LT to view your items on you then you can put them in in the same way you would takes things out (cant remember what the button is), press RT to go back to viewing the contents of the furniture and the items you wanted in there should be in there.

You should've used the shadowmere glitch. Or did you because even doing that you would still need to make loads of trips from the guild to town gate then fast travel to the town with your house then make loads of trips from the destination towns gate to your house.

What's this glitch all about?

This is from gamefaqs because I couldn't be bothered to word it myself.

Using the horse, Shadowmere, as movable storage.

Shadowmere is a hero character, meaning that you can not kill him. Since he is an animal you can loot him when he is knocked unconscious. You can also stock up items on him and they will stay on him throughout the game until you knock him out and remove them.
The steps to do this are as follows:
1. Get Shadowmere (Fort Farrgut) and knock him unconscious (kill him).
2. When he is laying on the ground you can open his body like any normal corpse.
3. Place any items you wish to transport into his corpse's inventory.
4. Let him get up and then go and take him wherever you want.
5. To get the items back you can knock him out and take them out. They never disappear.
You can have items in him for as long as you want. Even if he respawns back at the Fort Farrgut he will still have your items on him.

On the subject of oblivion. I plugged in my 360 today just because talking about it was giving me withdrawal symptons.

[action=twelve]agrees with abe froeman, this game is crack[/action]

Here's my issue now. I got kicked out of the Fighters Guild and now have to gather 20 black bear pelts to get back in. The thing is that I have yet to see one bear in the 20+ hours I've been playing this. Where can I find some?

Edit - I figured out where to purcahse them on gamefaqs.

Also, is this post I saw over there true?

Dupeing Items

Here're the instructions on how to use it:

1 - Equip any set of arrows.
2 - Draw your bow back and press B while its drawn.
3 - Highlight above arrows and press A once.
4 - Find any item you wish to clone and drop it.
5 - Exit and Profit.


Here're the rules that the glitch seems to follow:

1 - The game will drop your selected item X amount of times, where X is equal to the number of arrows in your selected Arrow Set.

2 - It will drop the item(s) in your inventory first, and then drop clones until the total amount dropped is equal to your arrow count.
Ex: You have 5 arrows and 1 club, and want to clone some clubs . You do your little trick, and out pops 5 clubs. The first club is the original club from your inventory, and the other 4 are the clones. Making a total of 5 clubs, as your arrow count.

3 - If the item to be cloned is one of multiple, and totals less than your arrow count, then the game will drop X items in stacks of Y (where Y is the amount of items in your original stack) but fractionize the last stack in order to not go over X.
Ex: You have 5 arrows and 3 clubs. Clone Time. You end up with two stacks of clubs. One stack of 3, and another of 2. (3+2=5) ... or ... You have 5 arrows and 2 clubs. Clone Time. You end up with 3 stacks of clubs. Two stacks of 2, and another of 1. (2+2+1=5)

4 - If the item to be cloned is one of multiple, and totals more than your arrow count, then the game will drop X items, and since it drops legal items first, it will have no need to drop clones because Y is greater than or equal to X.
Ex: You have 5 arrows and 6 clubs. Clone Time. You end up with one stack of 5 clubs and 1 club in your inventory. You didn't clone any clubs because you had the same amount or more clubs than arrows.

5 - According to the lists of items that can be duplicated, and from my own assumptions, the glitch only works with items that have an infinite nature. Anything that can respawn (whether by restocking in stores, or plants growing them, or chests spawning more), chances are, they can can be cloned. On the other hand, if the item has a proper name, is enchanted, or is a quest/plot item you won't be able to clone it.


Notes: I don't intend this to be a perfect interpretation of the glitch, but it's what i understand of it. And to be sure noone thinks otherwise, it was Grimwrecker that found this glitch. I didn't, i merely refined it

---

I'm at work now and can't test this out, that's why I'm asking.

Yes that's true. I use my sword instead of a bow though. Just attack with your sword, bring up your inventory before the attack is finished, equip the arrows (that are already equipped to you) until you see "can not equip while attacking" or whatever, then immediately after drop your item to be cloned on the ground.

I usually clone grand soul gems to sell and keep handy. I noticed a lot of people mentioning them in previous posts.

It's cool when the item dupes, loads of it just drops out of the air. Gotta love physics ;-)

Is there anywhere that one could create custom spells like in Morrowind? I've been to several mage's guilds and do not seem to find anyone.

I was reading some guide that said once you can enter Arcane University, you can create your own. But I have no clue since I haven't even begun the Mages Guild quests.

yep. true. once you get into the arcane university you can make your own spells...its not as advanced as it is with morrowind(from what i've been told..never did the mages guild in morrowind)

Is there a way to strenghten a NPC? On certain missions you have to protect people, etc. Is there a way to put stonger armor on them or give them better weapons?

I thought there was a way, if only I could remember...

I figured it out, you have to pickpocket them first and then give them the armor while on that screen, somewhat sketchy.

Yes, that was it. First thing that came up actually. it's indeed somewhat troublesome...

Im going for all the achievements today. I did the final quest yesterday since I stopped playing for a few months. Now that I've finished the game, I only have Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood left to complete for all the achievements.

Did you guys finish it already?

I still got the main quest to do

Spoiler for where im up to:

I'm doing all the oblivion gates outside the towns for the aid for Bruhma mission, i think thats what its called anyway

Apart from that I've done all the achievement missions. And got loads of side missions to do.

I'm a long way off. I've only completed the Fighters Guild, Arena, and like two checkpoints of the main quest. I just started the Mages Guild this morning (Recommendations) and am saving the lawless Thieves and Dark Brotherhood missions for when the Mages Guild is complete.
-= Double Post =-
When's a good time to go vampire? (Does it even matter?) I know you get offered it during the Dark Brotherhood quests. Is there anything plot dependant or missed if you do it later in the game, etc?

I've never been vampire. There's no requirement to ever go vampire except for to do the mission. Becoming vampire and completing the vampire mission used to cause problems with the main story before the patch. So if you are unplugging your ethernet and avoiding getting the patch then I'd wait until you've done the main quest to become a vamp. If however you are connected to the internet when you play then you will already have the patch and can become vampire whenever you want.

Thanks twelve. How many hours have you pumped into this game so far?

I can see myself easily going over 100 hours for this game. Which has only happened once before for me with DQ8.

Im at 118 hours so far. lvl 36 Redguard.

There is a dupe thing after patch which is put away ur bow, and as it is going past the edge of the screen, load inventory and same then on. or you can just use the box you are given when completing the Arcane University quests, which clones things over in-game 24 hours.

I recommend the many downloads, and if you want to be a vampire the vampires den is useful as it has 5 cures inside, and i found alll the hidden stash ther! and you can also get frostcrag spire, which has a big vault, containing 1 shadowbanish wine which i cant find, and a spell-making plinth, a armor/weapon enchanting plinth, a familiar maker, a big garden VERY USEFUL and in a hidden box there is a pentamagic loop five to all magics, as well as teleportations to all mages guild.

I stopped playing this whilst attempting all the daedric statue quests so i could do clamicus vale (or is it someone else) who you need to have done all of them to play. I played it all at medium difficulty, am in EVERY faction, including white stallion and righteous blood, and am curious about the house called HQ of "The knights of the something~" (of course it wasnt something its just been so long since i played i cant remember) but when i went in there there was one guy who kept telling me to get out, but i never found if i could join or not.

I know alot about this game, but eventually had to drag myself away from the mind-numbing intensity of it :( i still miss it

Knights of the Thorn. You get to be Honorary Knight.

I haven't gotten bored yet, but I can see where it can get a little monotonous. Talk to this person, clear out this cave, etc.

I've been combating that by mixing up which quests I go on, guild related, miscellaneous, main quest, etc.

I think I'm on about 80hours. Which is the longest I've ever gone since Final Fantasy 8. I hit 113 hours on that. I could've finished it much quicker but I just couldn't bear to. I loved the world and characters and overall game that much. But oblivion started to get samey so I lost interest. I'll pick it back up and finish it sometime. Although I did play for a little bit the other night. Then I went and bought Ninety nine nights and dead rising. And I'll get TD:U when I'm back in my room with an ethernet connection.

how do you join Knights of the Thorn? I WANT TO BE ALL FACTIONED MUHAHAHAHAH!!! ahem. anyway, how do you join?

I just slaughtered everyone within the Shrine of Dagon last night when Harrow asked me to give him all of my belongings to proceed. (Main Quest) I answered No twice. If I said Yes, would I have been able to join that group?

Yes, you can. You will then be in a cult called ''The Mythic Dawn''. However if you want to complete the Main quest you must eventually terminate them, forcing you to leave the cult again.

You're catching up to me in the main storyline now.

<sigh> i attempted playing this game last night, and got severely bored because id done the quest before............4 times! but anyway, this game would have been so much better with online play, and would be better if there would be more and less far apart downloadable packs. <sigh> you can only dream though (wishes had got it for PC)

lol. i agree with multiplayer that would of made this game near enough perfect. What mission are you stuck on? I might be able to help.

You never know...they could just create some sort of downloadable "pack" that provides for online play with others. I doubt they will, but it would be nice to allow at least for online co-op play with others.

So I just contracted Polyphyric Hemophilia during a Mage Guild quest last night and don't want to be a Vampire yet. Before I turn in three days, I need to cure it and have no clue how.

I wanted to save being a Vampire for doing the Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild quests.

You have 72 game hours (3 days) to cure yourself before you run the risk of becoming a vampire. After three days, resting or sleeping will trigger the transformation into a full vampire. To stop this happening you must drink a cure disease potion, eat an ingredient which cures disease (i.e. mandrake root), cast a similar spell or make your way to a temple to be blessed at the altar. Just make sure you don't rest until you have been cured.

Do you get a notification once you have cured yourself? I pounded a Cure Disease potion immediately after I contracted it and didn't see any working pop up on the screen.

Nope. I was worried about that too. I really think some way of telling would be great.

There is a way to tell. Open your Magic menu and look at the ''Active Effects'' tab. If Polyphyric Hemophilia isn't in the list you''re cured and you've got nothing to fear. It could be listed under some other name like this:

Drain Fatigue---> Polyphyric Hemophilia Drain fatigue -1

Thanks for the tip. I should finally crack open the instruction booklet for this game to find out what all of the symbols mean.

I started the Dark Brotherhood guild last night got through the mission where you have to loosen the brackets of the mounted animal head while the guy is sitting underneath it. I hope all of them are like this.

Hmm, I have yet to do the Dark Brotherhood part. I started a new, magic oriented character to do those things.

Im so much in love btw:love: ...

i not stuck i got 4 games-or warrior, argonian thief, dark elf mage, imperial alrounder

hey where can I buy potions?for healing...
