Snowsong

Omigosh. I JUST had that part of the quest trigger. Yeah ... I came across the dude about to knife that lizard woman in the back. He waited several minutes in real time before he finally did it. There's some weird bug that's keeping him immobile for way too long. Try moving around the area for a while to see if you can get him to kill her. Mine worked ... eventually ... after I was sitting there for several minutes saying "What the heck?!"

Oh, MY! Your character has a pretty sick sense of humor to aim for ... that ... spot.

Maybe the plant-the-ring-on-the-guy thing was a bug in your game? I took one heck of a long time to do that quest, and it still worked for me even after I ignored doing it for like FOREVER. I loves me Skyrim.

Yeah, if you do a shout too close to any townspeople, they consider it attacking the townspeople. They'll kick your butt for that.

Single buggiest quest in the game. It's still buggy even AFTER the patch came out. Sorry I can't help you. I still can't get the second part of that quest to work, myself.

The Nord is my main character, but I also started playing a Redguard recently. These pics don't show them as they usually are ... armored to the teeth in glass armor or elven armor. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7276/7483477444_63db8fd55a_z.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8151/7483477806_c5e01e33e3_z.jpg

That's the most frustrating quest in the whole game, in my opinion. I hate that quest! I wouldn't even attempt it until you got all three whirlwind sprints, otherwise it's an exercise in frustration. You don't HAVE to have all three whirlwind sprints, but it helps keep you sane if you do.

You didn't say whether you were on a PC or what ... I'm on a PC, and I just hit the "Print Scr" button (on your keyboard) repeatedly in the middle of action. It takes amazing screenshots. You retrieve the files later by going to (at least this is how on my computer): C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim

Thrilled about getting Dawnguard on PC in a month. I'm so glad there are a group of beta-testers testing it out for bugs right now on Xbox. LOL.

I had a bug one time where I learned the dragonrend shout, but it wouldn't work on alduin at all and he was invincible. I had to re-load a previous save (luckily I'd saved recently) and the second time around it worked perfectly, like it should. You need to re-load your most recent save. Sometimes the game just bugs out like that.

No, I didn't do any custom keys. I use the default key settings and never changed them. EDIT: NEVER MIND. You press "E". The first time I pressed "E" it didn't work, but I tried the key again and it worked this time. Thanks anyway.

Help. I've tried every key on the keyboard, both mouse buttons and combinations of all and can't figure it out. Yes, I did do a search for "dismount" on this forum before posting this, but could not find the answer. A plate of cookies to whoever answers. Thanks.
