kevkiev Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) So I'm entering Falkreath and am immediately set upon by 3 guards. I don't want to kill them so I sheathed/unsheathed/sheathed my weapon a few times while I'm taking their blows until finally one of them said "Okay, I think you've had enough." (Luckily, 'cuz if my health would have gone down much more I wouldn't have had a choice but to defend myself.) At which point they walked away and went back to their usual random comments. My companion, Jordis, had actually put an arrow into a couple of the guards. Apparently without any repercussions. :whistling: If I had a bounty on my head, I thought I'd get some kind of arrest dialogue after the fight ended and not a "If it isn't the slayer of the Glamoril (sp?) witches, how can I assist you Companion" and the like. What could have caused this? Actually, on that note, is there somewhere in the UI that lists active bounties?

Rooker75 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 General stats > Crime shows bounty info. Not sure why the guards would attack and then not try to arrest you. That's weird. You're not a vampire, are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freyrgjurd Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) I don't know about active bounties, but that happens a lot to me. Usually after I complete some quest that involves killing someone nearby the city grounds (in the hold). Last time I found out that I was "shouting" at them. The shout was being released right before the image appeared, then I unequipped it... so long. Sometime I still forget =x Note: Happens with the bow too... Edit: If the bouty is high, they just go for it. Don't know how high though... 1k ? Edited June 29, 2012 by Freyrgjurd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevkiev Posted June 29, 2012 Author Share Posted June 29, 2012 Nope, not a vampire, although I did cure myself of the first stages of that affliction recently. None of the hunger messages or anything tho. I only mention that 'cuz I don't really trust Skyrim's way of keeping track of that sort of thing. For example, my char's a werewolf but still manages to contract all sorts of diseases despite supposedly having disease-repellant beast blood. First time in gazillions of hours (literally, gazillions! :tongue:) I've had that happen. Maybe I've just been lucky. Ah well, yeah, maybe I shouted too close to the town or something. Was actually kinda cool, especially since everyone walked away with life and limbs intact.:biggrin: I can see the stats for total lifetime bounties, and largest bounty, but nothing to tell me if I have a bounty out on me currently?

Rooker75 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 If you have a bounty currently, it'll be shown as "Active Bounty: <amount>" and tell you what hold(s). Otherwise, you don't have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, so no news is good news. Thanks Rooker75, I've always wondered about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowsong Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Yeah, if you do a shout too close to any townspeople, they consider it attacking the townspeople. They'll kick your butt for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobusExtremus Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I just started a new game just to play around as a hunter - not going to do any main quests - using Frostfall and IMP's More Complex Needs. After rolling a new character at Helgen, I went to Riverwood and on the way out of town grabbed some salmon from the drying rack and some cabbages from a cart. It said "take" not "steal". Next time I went to Riverwood, they all attacked me and I ended up having to kill one of them...I haven't been back since. I wonder why they did that? Oh well, their loss.
