tanoman Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Hi ppl! I bought Skyrim off Steam 2 days ago, and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the quests I can do. I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on which set of quests are cool to do, and what others are best left for later. :P I guess I should leave the main quest also for later, but what would you recommend a newbie? Thx! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breakwind Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Aaahhh to re-live that magical moment of first playing Skyrim again :) Personally I do the Civil War quest first...just to get it out of the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(to talk to Jarl Balgruuf and so on?) By the way, where can I join the thieves guild? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhanqwa Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Talking to Jarl Balgruuf furthers the dragon quest, not the civil war quest.You can join the thieves guild in Riften. Edited July 17, 2012 by Bhanqwa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanoman Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 Oh, and which one is the civil war quest? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocklymon Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Oh, and which one is the civil war quest? :PThe civil war quest line is started by either joining the imperials or the stormcloaks (the quest to do so is in the miscellaneous quests section).

Brandy1123 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) I say just walk the lands until you have pretty much mapped all the locations. Be warned, picking items up from chests and trunks and off bodies can and will break quests. Do all the easy ones first. The misc quests. Those are ones that often become abandoned and broken due to you already clearing out a cave/den/camp/thingy. If you find an item with a name, like " Hammer of Tanoman" then its probably a quest item. Also, if a book is in a chest don't take it. Don't even read it as you may accidentally grab it.

tanoman Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 It's nice to know. It's just an amazing world, Skyrim. I think I'm gonna finish up the Companions quests and all the miscellaneous. Jeez what an awsome game :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMWarfield Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 You can join the Thieves Guild in Riften. Go to the market stalls and look for an man named "Brjnyolf" or something like that. He starts up a dialogue which leads to initiation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
