Dying without getting hit


Risca

Recommended Posts

I had A Redguard Knight for House Redoran. I just finish the quest for the founder's helm and the strangest thing that happen to me. I walked into under skar and I died. I had to kill the guy again when I got to Ald Ruhn. I saved it and I died about 3 or 4 times after until I didnt die.

Hi Risca. Let me see if I get this right. You were completing Neminda's quest to get the founder's helm from Alvis Teri in Balmora. You killed him and went to return to Neminda but as you entered the Emperor crab shell you died.

 

You had to reload and go back to kill the guy again (in Balmora I assume you mean) and still died. You tried several more times until you managed to get to Neminda.

 

Is that right?

 

I usually convince the guy to give me the helm but if you fight what weapon does he use? Is it possible that the weapon damages you in such a way that you die slowly? Otherwise I have no idea why you had a problem. I am pleased to hear you finally got there but it would be nice to understand the problem.

 

Who else has had this?

Perhaps there was a poison effect. Or it could be a glitch in the game. When Balmora was my main city I would often use the Balmora Mages Guild. But about 90% of the time when i jump and then entered the new cell, it would make me die. I guess that entering a new cell may make the game think that you are falling a huge amount until you hit the ground. That may be what caused you to die. If you own a patched version though, it should stop this (I only had this problem when playing the original Morrowind for Xbox).

In original game, Alvis Teri has a short sword as weapon. I don't believe it would be that sword who killed your character slowly. Then, there's nothing in Alvis TeriScript who could do that.

 

So, I have three solutions:

 

1 - You're running a mod in which Alvis Teri has a better weapon or some kind of nasty script :ph34r:

 

2 - You don't have the patch and you catch the "fall" bug, which drives your character to death.

 

3 - You just dreamt it and you need to wake up.

 

Oh, btw, I never heard about the jumping bug when opening a door. Maybe this could be the problem too.

The falling glitch is, indeed, what killed you. I had the same issue with both versions, (Original Xbox, and GOTY Xbox) in Ald Ruhn, as well as Balmora guard tower,... hmmmmm. But it would be the reason why, as no patch I've seen changes the weaponry THAT much of rather unimportant characters,... Besides, isnt it fun hearing the upchuck sound effect, then the load last save script pop up? :D Hope this helped.
