Oruboris Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I thought the last severl FG quests sucked, in large part because they made you run half way across the game world just to do a very simple job. I don't see why the jobs werern't handed out by the nearest guildhouse, instead of the fartherest. Not that the mages were so great, either...

iavor55 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 The reason that I haed the mages guild questline is because of the king of worms.When I heard that kajiit in bruma say "I saw his face...." I was expecting some strange monster...maybe like a huge lich or somehting,but NO! just a normal guy with a robe and cool staff!But completing it gave me the huge advantege that I didnt have to sneak around the university int he thives guild quest where you have to steal the staff...I just walked in there xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshenaleros Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Much of these problems can be fixed with a little mod called Mannimarco Revisited basically, it makes the king tougher, cooler, and holding a much more satisfactory feel when you wipe the floor with his skeletal butt. yes, he is now skeletal - he's now an actual lich! *Gasp* this actually does make the Mages Guild feel better, if for no other reason than you EARNED your archmage title Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrell6200 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I finished the mages guild yesterday, and i wasn't too happy about it either. Sure, he's an ugly altmer, but not THAT ugly to make people shake with terror. Worst of all, the encounter was bugged beyond hope, even with all the patches. He just kept paralyzing me, removing HUD and everything, and he just stood there, taking a little step every 10 seconds until he was close enough to literally slap me and remove the paralysis. Gave up after about 6 reloads and cheatkilled him :SI like the staff though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepblue686 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I used Mannimarco revisited a while ago before I re-installed Oblivion and I got the same paralysis crap. I got zapped, flew backwards, got up and stood there with no HUD while Mannimarco sat on his throne probably laughing at me. I think a patch fixes this because I ended up fighting him at some point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unavi Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 i don't remeber having problems with him - as far it goes for bugs. I saw the mod befeore i played the quest line but when i did i forgot about it. I wasn't expecting much and i wasn't very angry about him. Somehow i knew it would be like that, only the fight was better that i tought it would be. But next time i will play it with the mod.

darkjaffar Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Yeah, I had that problem with Mannimarco too, this time around. With the other 2 or so characters I completed the quest-line with, however, it wasn't a problem. I thought maybe it was caused by nailing him with a silence poisoned claymore, or something. Never had to silence him with my other characters, though, this was the first time I tried him in OOO and he got an upgrade power-wise in it.
