SSE No stone unturned without thieves guild.

[Wolfar15]

I no this quest is a chore for most but for completionists and those using the Legacy of the Dragonborn mod or those who like finding gemstones in every container they open this quest is a must. Besides the lack of map markers (which mods have added) the only thing that ever bothered me about this quest was the fact that you HAVE to join the Thieves Guild to complete it which is problematic for roleplaying certain characters. Now I know that mods like Thieves Guild for Good Guys exists but I'm looking for a mod that would simply make it so that you can complete the No Stone Unturned quest without ever having to join the guild at all.

Until someone comes up with your mod request, you could add the "Prowler's Profit" perk to your character with a console command. It is probably "player.addspell f20be"

With no mods, we (two of us) were able to bypass the Thieves Guild Quests on our Search for Esbern, using a high Speech Perk in Persuasion.

 

Brynjolf had a reply option which "let us in" to the Ratway, no intimidation or quests required.

 

We could have also tried the Illusion spell Harmony in the Thieves Guild, probably, to at least reach the Ratway, and find Esbern, as the Thieves in the Cistern did not bother us once we were in, if the first tactic didn't work.

 

We're guessing, though we haven't tried it yet, players can probably access Vex through a similar strategy once they collect all the stones?

 

Maybe???

I use this, it is the LE version, but it works in SE. The "sister" of Mjoll will be the person where you can start the stones quest.

 

I also see there is an SE version but I don't know if there also is a quest starter.
