spoiler Who else is a softie

[ell46]

Own up if your a softie like me.

 

There are some items I can't bring myself to sell, once it's passed it's use by date eg. wedding ring and clothes (city elf) Cailans armour and sword, Duncans weapons just to name a few.

the only things I can think of are Zev's gloves and boots even after I have him in better armor.

Oh gosh I am a softie for that wedding ring too! It does nothing yet I let it sit in my inventory always :( But since I use the toolset to edit my inventory to 9999 I never have issues with it filling up so I get to stay sentimental about things like some sappy female. *sigh* Though I do not have issues with the wedding clothes because they are so freaking ugly! I usually switch out with Soris so I can have pretty green and he gets the fug one :X Though someone on the nexus made some pretty noble clothes with medium stats that I used this last time with my girly.

 

But yeah Duncan's swords I can't sell either :(

I thought I was the only one who did that. Yeah, I keep all that stuff around. I guess I'm a softie too. But I recently got that mod that allows me to keep more in storage, so now it doesn't matter. I can carry around as much as I want.

Softie? Does taking care of prized artifacts make one a softie? I consider Cailan's armor, Duncan, Maric and Asturian's blades to be pieces of Ferelden/Grey Warden history and therefore worthy of preservation for future generations so I stash them in a box.

 

If I'm putting Al on the throne he puts on Cailan's armor when we go to the Landsmeet and wears it from that point on. Zev's shoes and gloves get tossed faster than he puts them on as they are pretty much junk.

 

I sometimes save the wedding clothes, commoner clothes, etc (basically all the clothes that are useless in combat) in case I want the party to wander around Denerim incognito but since they all know who I am anyway it's a futile exercise so they wind up taking up space. So those get saved more because I'm a pack rat and can't throw anything that might possibly someday in the future have a possible but unlikely use :whistling:

 

@ elooocin - if you use the Upgrade Wand on the wedding clothes you can change the color (setting 7 gives a spiffy maroon, 10 gives a flashy silver and 12 makes an awesome gold.)

I keep most stuff with unique names, and pretty much anything other than crap weapons/armor and herbs/potion stuff. Everything else I just put in a chest(mod) at the camp.

 

And I always keep sentimental stuff.

Being a softie is keeping things for sentimental reasons, not how useful they might be in the future, that is being a hoarder or as you say a pack rack. In the real world I'm both, but in the game I'm just a softie.

 

I'll have to check out the Upgrade Wand that sounds really useful and I like the sound of the spiffy maroon.

Winter Forge. Then some of those things are no longer useless. The wedding band for example would make a nice object to use for some really nice bonuses.

 

There's some of it that I keep and throw into storage. Some of it for function, other's as trophies. I think there's like a howe family shield or something, that I keep as a trophy. What I REALLY miss is back in Morrowind, where you could set stuff down in a house, and it would stay there. I used to have entire rooms of collected trophies.

 

Zev's crap.. yeah, it goes bye-bye as soon as he gets it. Worthless.

My fiance plays as a city elf a lot, and she is always giving the wedding band to Alistair. (She made her Alistair bald like me) Myself I just tend not to sell items in the same place I get them, like Varathorn's amulet I sell somewhere other than the Dalish camp.

[ell46]

OH NO!!! I couldn't change the wedding ring into something else that would be as bad as selling it and I don't change the numbers I like to go with what the game gave me, except for the Mordsith armour that I downloaded purely because it looks nice.

 

Was Morrowind the one where you got several houses in various towns/parts of the map? I remember a game like that and I was forever bringing stuff back that I liked and arranging it, what am I like :woot: :woot:

 

Mind you if my pack didn't get full I'm not sure I would bother going back to the camp as often as I do, I only sell my stuff to Bodhan, the reason being, in an old game, I sold stuff that was necessary for completing the quests and then I spent hours going round every merchant trying to find who I had sold it to, what a pain that was and some of it I never did find, I've never forgotten that.
