DN` Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 (Possible Spoiler) I didn't think it was possible, but my cousin managed to save the famous falling mage from his death. I'm not sure what he is supposed to be used for now, which is why I'm asking. When my cousin tries to talk to him, he says "I don't want to talk about it." Then you have to click Goodbye. I wouldn't usually think there was more to it then this, but he has "Barter" and "Repair", like some kind of shopkeeper. Any ideas? Thanks,DN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamOfTheRood Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Let's be specific here. How did your cousin, or you or whoever, save the falling mage? Some kind of targeted slowfall spell? A big cushion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marxist ßastard Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 AFAIK, the script running on Tarhiel does not make him actually fall, but rather plays the sounds and simply enables him when you step in radius. If he had actually falled, you would see a death animation. Therefore, it is impossible to save him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DN` Posted September 18, 2003 Author Share Posted September 18, 2003 My cousin used a Slowfall spell to stop him from hitting the ground. He created the spell himself, and the effects of it were: Slowfall 2-5pts for 20 seconds in a 10ft area on target. Tarhiel does actually fall and you do see him die, and my cousin did save him because he is now alive. On another note, I'm talking about the Xbox version. Anyone else know what to do or what can be done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marxist ßastard Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Just checked over the script attatched to Tarhiel's Journal. It appears that there's a collision barrier above the journal that gets disabled once the script runs... Tarhiel is on that barrier. So it seems that your story actually is possible, but seeing as how that barrier must be quite far up, it's still somewhat suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmac Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 You should do like Fortify Health 50 pts and Slowfall 100 pts. That would save him. Perhaps a Restorative spell would tide him over as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acinonyk Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 I'm on xbox too, and I've theorized doing that, but i just liked to see him fall, so i never did. What you can do though is just talk to him quickly before he touches the ground, he says the same things as you said he said. " i dont want to talk about it" his only purpose is to die, thus giving you the icarian flight scrolls, thus giving you another clue as to why he died.

Guest Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 I went crazy and started adding mods once and one of them must have messed it up. He just kept standing on his journal, but he wouldn't talk to me. Maybe if you disabled the goodbye result in the editor you could buy his scrolls off him over and over again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbob 11 Posted October 25, 2003 Share Posted October 25, 2003 Not likely. the goodbye result comes on several NPCs in the game, and you probably coudn't buy the scrolls.... they just are in his inventory. They'd only be there if you pickpocketed/murdered him. I wonder if anyone has made a mod which causes him to be at 0 fatgue or something: Then he woudn't be standing when he fell. He looks, to put it mildly, ludicrous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmac Posted October 25, 2003 Share Posted October 25, 2003 Tahriel actually does have a few interesting options in his dialogue window...apparently he can repair, sell, and make spells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
