chrisdragon425 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Not too long ago tonight I did the quest on stealing Travar(sp?)'s staff, did not get caught but I am also a lowly associate in the MG, so would I get in trouble with them later on? :ohmy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 No. Indeed after they got it back I stole it again to get the fenced amount higher. It becomes yours at the end anyway when it's no use. (Unless you are a staff using character of course.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisdragon425 Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 Well, that's a relief :) I only used a staff to kill Umbra (Lesser Staff of Fire) since normal combat wore me out trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhydderch Hael Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 You can steal from the Mages' Guild, even when you're in the Guild— you just have to avoid getting caught. Killing is another thing. Anyone and everyone knows if you take down a Mages' Guild member, even if it's an accidental one-hit kill of your Apprentice escort in a firefight on a lonely road far from the city.

But, if you're Arch-Mage, you can get that staff w/o having to steal it, I bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhydderch Hael Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Storywise, even if you're the head Nerd of Nerd University, you have to maintain the pretense of the staff's theft to complete the mission set out for the Thieves' Guild. Which means nobody in the Mages' Guild knows that the dude who stole from you was— you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, yeah, you really hate mages, don't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrath_Of_Deadguy Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Yep, you can. My first go at it, I did the MG questline first, then the TG...I waltzed right into the University tower, took the staff, walked right out the front door. The only part that required even the slightest effort was timing entry into the dude's house to return the thing. You would think, though, that *being* the arch-mage you would be able to talk to some people and have the stand-down arranged without having to pull the heist at all.

But the Primate of the Temple of the One and the Imperial Watch Commander would add weight— hence the multiple jobs. Would seem weird to have three heists in the City and then have one mage complaining about a heist that didn't happen in the University. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
