everyone who sent emails didn?t get them answered. I know that some parts of
this FAQ may have incorrect data, however; the time has come for me to move on,
and I?ve been too slow about it. I have other things to do now, and I cannot
answer any more e-mails for this FAQ. I no longer play Morrowind, though it was
fun while it lasted. I even deleted it from my computer, so that I won?t be

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Welcome to my Mage?s Guild Guide for Morrowind. This is my first (and still only
even after two years) attempt at writing a strategy guide, so please bear with
me if everything isn't perfect. I've decided to write an all-inclusive guide for
those of you who wish to become the Arch-Mage of the Mage's Guild. I hope to
provide a complete list of all related Mage?s Guild missions and any alternate
ways completing them. Please be aware that I still have to add and retouch a few
more missions. I?m not quite sure anymore when the FAQ will be complete. It
seems as though the FAQ has a life of its own now and every once in a while an
exceptional contributor mentions an idea that will expand the FAQ a page or two.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.0 PREPARATION
Here are some recommended preparations, in terms of skills, armor etc. that you
might want to know about while you quest. If you are just starting out, you
won't have access to many of the things that I describe here; however, having
them at some point will make your life a *LOT* easier.
Although this IS a Mage?s Guild FAQ, I still feel that it is necessary to
include some in-depth strategy, so these following sections are going to be
somewhat lengthy, but quite informative. If none of this interests you, skip
right to section 5.0.
2.1 Running Is Good, but Sneaking Is Better
First, you might want to train your athletics skill. Being a slowpoke is no fun,
and can considerably increase the time it takes to get from point A to B. You
can't outrun the local fauna if you are too slow. My recommendation is to find a
room and face a corner. Jam the run key down on your keyboard and go to bed,
school, or work. When you come back in ~8 hours, your athletics skill should be
55-60. This is plenty for now. If you *must* have 100 athletics, be warned that
it can take 24 hours or more to max out the skill.
The sneak skill can be trained in the same way. Find a lone NPC indoors and get
behind him/her/it. Find a way to mash your sneak key down and do something else.
It takes ~6-10 hours (it seems to vary) to get the sneak skill to 100. (You do
NOT have to hold the move key down for this. Just the sneak key.) This is
important because there are many things that you may want to steal, and being
caught can cause many problems. A high sneak skill is essential no matter what
class you are. (Dan Lethcoe)
NOTE: If your copy of Morrowind crashes a lot like mine, you have a better
chance of successfully training your skills if you do it indoors. There isn?t
any evidence supporting this claim, just my personal experience.
2.1.1 Lessons in Sneakin? and Thievin? (or How Not to Be Seen) =P
(Credit goes to Monty Python for that one)
Sneaking and Thievery are so important in Morrowind that I?m going to dedicate
more space to describing ways to avoid capture, or salvage your game if you are
caught. Most of this is stuff that I learned the hard way.
LESSON: Read this FAQ (sheeesh, no hate mail for this, please)
In general, save your game each and every time you plan on doing something
illegal. This means that before every theft, pickpocket, and out and out murder,
you SAVE your game... this can save you mucho heartbreak if your only option is
to restore your game. A good example of when this might be necessary is killing
Temple Guards in Vivec. If you kill more than five of them, every guard in the
game will try to kill you, and no NPCs will talk to you or give you missions.
You MUST restore your game. Try not to kill too many NPCs, especially not people
who can give you training or sell you unique spells.
LESSON: SAVE often, and don?t randomly kill NPCs.
When you are stealing, try to stay out of the line of sight of your target. If
you can get the target to turn the other way by talking to him/her/it, so much
the better. Also, make sure that the yellow sneak icon is visible before you
attempt to steal. A simple rule of thumb: When stealing, if the yellow sneak
icon is showing, you probably won?t be caught. This isn?t the law though.
Sometimes if you steal something expensive, or an NPC enters the room just as
you steal, you?ll be caught regardless of whether you are sneaking. Restore the
game when that happens.
LESSON: The yellow sneak icon is your friend
NOTE: Make sure to keep the sneak icon depressed the whole time. If you release
the sneak button while you are stealing, you will Be Seen.
2.1.1.1 Pick pocketing: The Game?s Afoot
When you try to pickpocket from people, the game is much different. Many times,
the only way to get what you want, without too much effort, is murder. A good
example of this is during a mission from Ranis Athrys. She asks you to get some
papers from Itermeral. If you can?t steal from him, lead him into the middle of
nowhere and kill him. There are also other NPCs in Morrowind, which are tough or
near impossible to pickpocket. An example of this is the Slavemaster at the Dren
Plantation. There are lots of slaves that want to be freed. If you want to free
them, you need the key from the Slavemaster, but there are too many people
around (why on EARTH would the slaves report your crime??). It is impossible to
get the sneak icon to appear. So kill Dren and take his key.
LESSON: If you can?t steal, try killing the target.
2.1.1.2 A Few Taunts Are Worth 1,000 Battles
Occasionally you may need to kill someone in a crowded area, or someone
otherwise inconveniently located. To accomplish this, I recommend a speechcraft
skill of 75. If you fulfill this requirement (even if you don?t), try using the
taunt feature under the persuasion submenu. If you can successfully taunt
someone below 10 affection, there is a chance that the NPC will attack you. This
works especially well on guards and military personnel. As long as you are
attacked first, you can kill without repercussions.
LESSON: Taunt your enemies into attacking you.
NOTE: Xelmepa brought up a really good point. You have to be HARMED in order not
to be fined. If you taunt someone into attacking you and don?t take any damage,
then you will still receive the full fine. This means that above level 20 or so
you might have to remove your armor when you taunt someone. You can also drink
stat minus potions if you really need to take the damage.
2.1.1.3 All Are Not Equal Under the Law
This brings me to my next point. You can kill certain people with no
repercussions. Any thief, bandit, necromancer, or other form of outlaw can be
killed and looted from with no consequence. Anybody in a town without a unique
name (e.g. Ordinators and Hlaalu/Redoran/Telvanni guards) can generally be
killed with no repercussions. Just make sure that you don?t kill them in crowded
places. If you kill someone in a closed room, you?ll be caught if there are
people on the other side of the door or wall. You won?t have to pay a fine, but
everyone will attack you anyway. This is where removing the corpse might come in
handy. Don?t loot corpses in public either. If you kill someone without being
caught, and then loot the corpse in public, you?ll still have to pay a fine.
LESSON: Kill people who won?t cause problems, but don?t loot corpses when you
can Be Seen.
NOTE: I updated to the patch. It seems as though just about every time you kill
someone, you?ll probably be fined. I do recommend patching, but remember that
its now even easier to get caught.
2.1.1.4 Sweet-Lips Are Worth the Trouble
The best way to get out of a Jam is the Thieves? Guild. If you become a member
(talk to Sweet-Lips Habasi in Balmora at the South Wall Cornerclub), you can
have your fines easily removed without talking to the guards. This is important
because if you must be caught, you?ll lose everything that you?ve ever stolen,
regardless of the town. This doesn?t apply to treasure from caves or bandits.
This DOES apply to everything that you steal from stores in towns, or from any
barrels and crates. Example: If you steal a soulgem in Balmora, and have to pay
a fine in Vivec, you?ll lose the soulgem. This is especially troublesome when
you steal armor, rings, or other good equipment. Stolen items are relocated to
the nearest ?evidence? chest. Finding those is up to you.
LESSON: Join the Thieves Guild
NOTE: If you join the Fighter?s Guild first, you cannot join the Thieves? Guild
so beware. For our purposes as Mages, this shouldn?t be a problem.
(LouitheRoach)
NOTE: CBC_CBC made a good point... there is actually a specific Fighter?s Guild
mission that will prevent you from joining the Thieves? Guild: Sottilde?s
Codebook. If you do this mission, then the only way to join the Thieves? Guild
will be to start a new game.
NOTE REMIX: So there is a way around the Sottilde?s Codebook problem too. If you
join the Thieves' guild and complete enough of the missions, Gentleman Jim
Stacey in Vivec will eventually ask you to bribe the Balmora guild master Eydis
Fire-Eye with the Bittercup relic. Details for this mission can be found in the
Thieves? Guild guide on GameFAQs. Once the mission is over, when you reach the
Sottilde?s codebook mission at the Balmora fighter?s guild (since you can?t pass
this mission as a member of the Thieves? Guild), Eydis will say that she isn?t
working for the Carmonna Tong anymore and she will provide new orders. If this
doesn?t make sense, then check out a relevant FAQ. Keep in mind that this
mission requires that you pretty much become master of the Thieves? Guild before
you attempt the bulk of the Fighter?s Guild missions. Unless you feel like being
a tank and a fire-hazard, I?d just as soon avoid the Fighter?s Guild missions as
you end up assassinating most of the Thieves? anyway, but I?m seriously
digressing here. (Chr1s)
2.1.1.5 There?s No Place Like Home
If you want to be really sneaky, find yourself a house. If you want instant
security, kill whoever is inside the house (making sure that the target is
ALONE). You can easily get a house in Balmora by completing the main quest. Drop
all of your stolen goodies in the house. This is especially good if you?ve been
Seen and the guards are chasing you. Run indoors and drop your things, and head
outside and pay the fine. Pick up the goods later after you?ve paid the fine.
Make sure that when you?re being chased that the guard is far enough away.
Otherwise, some guards can actually follow you through doors and catch you
unawares. (James Foster)
LESSON: Drop stolen items before being caught (preferably in your safe house).
2.1.2 If You Are Seen... (and have to fight)
If you have to fight, and can?t avoid it, let the OTHER person strike first. I
can?t stress this enough. The game reminds you of this fact frequently, but I
often found myself being attacked first, but I was the one who struck the first
blow. Remember, being attacked DOESN?T matter. It?s the person that strikes the
first blow that DOES DAMAGE that determines whether or not you?ve committed a
crime. If you get attacked first, and you take a hit, but no damage, and then
you kill your attacker, you will be GUILTY. If you want to avoid the problem,
take of some of your armor before fighting weak enemies.
NOTE: You don?t always have to fight. Many times you can run away from whoever
saw you. Find a guard and turn yourself in or restore the game. This will reset
everyone to normal.
2.1.3 Getting Your Stuff Back When You Are Seen
HELP!!! I was SEEN! And I lost my stuff!
So you got seen. And the guards took everything that you ever stole. Tough
break. Luckily, there is hope for you. You can still get everything back.
Whenever you are caught stealing, everything you stole is placed in a locked
chest marked ?evidence?. The location of this chest varies from location to
location. There should be an evidence chest in most towns and forts. The items
you stole will be in an evidence chest in the town you stole from (or the
nearest chest marked ?evidence?. Many NPCs will happily inform you of this
fact). So if you were caught stealing in Seyda Neen, everything you stole would
be relocated to a chest with a lock level of 50 in the Customs and Excise Office
in Seyda Neen. There is usually a guard near these chests, so that can be quite
a problem. To get rid of the guard near the evidence chest, ?taunt? him (this is
under the persuasion subcategory). You?ll need a minimum personality skill of 80
for this. If you taught him successfully after his affection level reaches ?0?
the guard will attack you. Allow him to strike the first blow and kill him.
Remember not to steal from the downed guard or the evidence chest unless there
is no one else around, or you are in a situation where you Cannot Be Seen (such
as sneaking). (Chimpiechanga, GatorAJ, JIM, ManaElf, Mark Boyle, Robin Sequira,
Todd Carnes)
NOTE: I?ve also been informed by several people that if you join the Imperial
Legion and reach a high enough rank, you will get a key that will allow you to
access all of your stolen loot. I haven?t confirmed this (Andrew Miles, Drizzt)
2.1.4 Using Magic to Not Be Seen (Kaboom)
Use of Magic can also help in sticky situations. Your chief mainstay will be
telekinesis. This spell is important because sometimes you need to steal an
object that is Being Seen by many NPCs. A good strategy is manufacturing your
own spell from a spellmaker with a range of at least 20. When you steal, hide in
a corner, under a table, or anywhere that places you outside of the line of
sight of whoever can see you, but still see your target object. Use the sneak
button, and then use telekinesis. Presto, you stole from 20 feet.
Lesson: Use Telekinesis to steal and Not Be Seen
For those of you who think that invisibility might help, it won?t. The moment
you act, your invisibility will be broken, and you will be caught at the exact
moment you steal!
Lesson: Don?t use invisibility to Not Be Seen
NOTE: Some people have written to me telling me that invisibility works. This
has not been my experience. If you think that invisibility might work for you,
try it out, although many people get the sneak icon confused with Not Being
Seen. If you are sneaking behind someone and you are invisible, you don?t get
caught. If you are invisible and you are in front of someone and you steal, you
will become visible when you act, and you will be caught. Does that clarify
things? If you want to argue, go play the game and try this out for yourself.
(Rant inspired by Jack Andrews and qvirus89)
Most recently, I have been informed by many people (too many to credit) that
chameleon (NOT invisibility) will allow you to steal when the spell is active.
I?m pretty sure that this is true, but caveat emptor.
2.2 Well Protected Is Best! (or many ways to get glass armor)
Perhaps the most important thing is Armor. Armor keeps you from taking damage in
fights; it keeps you alive. Even with good armor, I still recommend saving
often, but at least you won't be reloading as much. The best place to get great
armor early in the game is in Ald-Ruhn. If don't you happen to have a scroll of
Ekash's Lock-Splitter, a magnitude 100 lock killer, then I recommend that you
find one as soon as you can. There is a door on the lower floor of the fighter's
Guild in Ald-Ruhn (behind Precius Marcius) with a lock level of 80 that contains
Glass Armor. This is good for mages or other magic users who are most likely
going to use light armor anyway. Even at low light armor levels, Glass Armor
gives large armor bonuses, and still allows you to jump. This is where the sneak
skill comes in handy. If you can sneak and unlock this door, there is a chest
containing glass greaves, a glass cuirass, a glass helm, and some glass boots.
This should give you a starting armor rating around 10-20. This is almost the
best armor in the game, so keep that in mind. Although it doesn?t looks so great
now, when your light armor skill reaches 40-50 you WILL notice the difference.
If you can't get the glass armor now, you can always do this the cheap way.
**CHEATER ALERT**
So you want that awesome glass armor now, eh? Well, don't say I didn't warn you.
Hit the '~' key on the keyboard while standing in front of the locked door in
the Ald-Ruhn Fighter's Guild. Then type 'tcl', hit enter, and press '~' again.
This turns the wall collisions, or 'clipping', off. Now just walk through the
locked door behind Precius and grab the armor in the chest. Walk back outside
and turn collisions on by reopening the console, typing ?tcl? again, and
pressing enter. Presto, you have cheated your way to awesome armor. Keep in mind
that since you stole the armor, if you ever get busted for stealing, you'll lose
the armor. Make sure you remove your ill-gotten armor before paying fines.
**END CHEATING**
More ways to get glass armor: I finally finished the game and found a vendor
that sells a full set of glass armor. It?s still a good idea to steal all the
glass armor that you can, BUT you can buy what you can?t steal. The location in
question is Ghostgate, in the Tower of Dusk. If you haven?t found Ghostgate yet,
it?s on the South side of the dark patch, below the center of the world map.
When you see the large blue fence, head South following the fence and you should
find the Ghostgate. Look around inside the lower level of the Tower of Dusk to
find and find a room full of glass armor on shelves. Talk to the vendor inside
to buy the armor. The vendor has randomly spawned armor, as do the chests in the
room. Notice that several of the NPCs on the lower level are wearing full sets
of armor, so thieving isn?t a bad option either.
Unfortunately, there isn't an easy way to level up the light armor skill unless
you have health regen or can take lots of damage w/o dying. This skill will
level up on its own as you take hits in combat. If you manage to complete a set
of glass armor, when you light armor skill approaches 80 you will have an AC of
135, so it is certainly worth it.
NOTE: For these next sections assume that you need LOTS of Ekash?s Lock-Splitter
(level 100 lock-breaker), a high security skill (and lockpicks), or a lock
breaker spell of minimum 90.
Getting even more Glass Armor (Redoran Compound): There is quite a bit of glass
armor in Vivec. Start out by heading to Vivec. Find the Redoran Canton, and
enter the Plaza area. Then find the Dralor Manor and go inside. Go up the stairs
at the back of the Manor, and find the closed door at the top of the stairs.
Open the door and you should see a dresser and Favela Dralor. Sneak, and remove
the Dralor Treasury Key from the dresser. Head back outside to the Plaza. Find
the Redoran Treasury. Inside the Treasury, enter the Redoran Vault. Head down to
the bottom floor of the vault, and open the crossbar door. Once inside, the
guard will actually RUN OUTSIDE of the room! Close the door after him. There are
four chests with lock-level 75, 2 chests with lock-level 90, and numerous crates
and baskets. Once of the crates contains THREE pieces of RANDOMLY spawned glass
armor. The rest of the chests contain some interesting weaponry and a ton cash
(4k). A few of the chests also randomly spawn, so you may find additional glass
armor in lock-level 75 chests. If you wear heavy armor, there is also a lot of
Ebony Armor in here, including a cuirass, graves, a helmet, and a shield. For
reference purposes, Ebony armor provides roughly 40% more AC at high heavy armor
levels (80-90 vs. light armor 80-90). A glass axe and a glass dagger are sitting
on a shelf if you need weapons. There is also another locked room on the next
floor up. If you can get past the lock-level 90 door, there are a bunch of glass
weapons and cash in here. If you use medium armor, there is some Indoril Armor
here (about 25% less effective than glass armor). Between these rooms there is
over 300k in stuff... (Special Thanks: Jann DeFord and Marc Herdman)
Still More Glass Armor (Hlaalu Compound): This is what we really want. Inside
the Hlaalu Vault is a nearly complete set of glass armor. Enter the Hlaalu
Waistworks. Find the Hlaalu Treasury. Enter and find the Hlaalu Vault. Once
inside the Vault, head down the stairs to find two locked doors in a row, each
with lock-level 90 and trapped. 100 sneak is essential here. Bust the doors
open, and walk your way to glory. There are two guards inside, but if you can
sneak, they can?t catch you. The objects in question are laid out on shelves.
The inventory: one glass tower shield, one glass cuirass, one glass greaves, one
glass boots, one glass helmet, two glass pauldrons. Unfortunately, the bracers
are not here, nor are they located in the chests. If you want bracers, you?ll
still have to get them from Ghostgate in the Tower of Dusk. As with all things
you swipe, don?t get caught or you'll lose it all. There are also numerous
chests in here, which contain other random items. (Special Thanks: deusvalor)
Yet more glass armor... You can get this stuff at Falasmaryon, a propylon fort
northnortheast of Maar Gan. There is a fellow named Irer Nervion laying on the
floor of one of the rooms on the lower level. He has roughly half a set of glass
armor. (Bill)
NOTE: May I suggest that you pay a few visits to Creeper? (2.3)
2.2.1 About the Glass Tower Shield
The glass tower shield is of particular interest since it has a higher enchant
capacity than any other type of armor. This shield has an enchant capacity of 45
and can be used for some useful enchantments. I use this for a Constant Restore
Fatigue effect. The regular glass shield has an enchant level of 30, but you can
use it if you don?t mind losing part of your fatigue bonus. Set upper and lower
magnitudes to nine, or whatever value suits. This will cost a bit, but +9-9
fatigue every second will make it so you never have to rest again. This does
mean that you will be restricted to one-handed weapons. If you?re a long-sword
user like me, it doesn?t matter. The price of this enchantment is 24,485 Septims
at 100 affection with the enchanter. (see sec 2.7 for Golden Saints)
NOTE: If you are an actual Mage (I used a Rogue so I don?t assume anything),
this isn?t such a good idea since you can?t use a shield while casting spells.
Use an amulet or a ring instead, or possibly a shirt or pants (Don?t use boots
or you can?t wear armor glass boots). Just make sure you use exquisite clothing
items.
Getting the tower shield: There are two types of glass shield, the round version
that gives the same defense as the glass cuirass, and there is a tower version,
which is larger, looks cooler, and gives a little more defense. Keep searching
until you find one. If you don?t want one, it?s no big deal. At a light armor
level of 80, the only difference between a tower shield and normal glass shield
is one AC. If you get lucky, you can find a tower shield on a Golden Saint. They
occur on Golden Saints about half of the time. A good place to look for Golden
Saints is the Ald Daedroth Shrine. (see sec 2.7)
A Free Tower Shield: There is a tower shield located in the Urshilaku tomb. I
suggest that you do this only if you have passed this point in the plotline.
Finding the Tomb can be trouble.
**SPOILER ALERT**
When the Urshilaku Chief sends you to find his ancestral bow in the Urshilaku
tomb, this is also a good chance to grab a tower shield. Head South-Southeast of
the Urshilaku camp. If you find Falasmaryon, the Tomb is halfway between
Falasmaryon and the Urshilaku camp. If for some reason you find Valenvaryon to
the East, head back 2/3 of the way, and head South. The Urshilaku Tomb is not
easy to find. Once you arrive, you?ll want to make a left where the cave splits
and find the door to the Karma Burial. Once inside, there are a number of other
doors. The one you want is the door to the Fragile Burial. There is a pool of
water in this area. Jump in the water and search for a door. It is trapped and
has a lock-level of 10. Open the door and you?ll see a huge mushroom with three
mummies surrounding it. The tower shield is sitting on the mushroom next to one
of the mummies. (Greg Getner)
**END SPOILER**
2.3 Money Makes the World Go Round
Cash is also important, and sometimes it can be a pain to obtain. The best place
that I've found to get the much-needed
