This thread has been linked to the game 'The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind'.
Morrowind is a fantastic RPG if you have the time for it.
So, I decided after looking at this thread, it needed editing.
Morrowind discussion, discuss about Morrowind.
Pretty straight forward really.
Tell us your Morrowind storys, cool stuff you've done ect.

I've got a full set of glass armour, and because I'm such a light armour genius it gives me an AC of over 100. And it's bright green and makes me look like I'm heading for the wood elf disco.

I have almost solved this before; I tried drowning myself and nothing happened then
*SPOLIER*
I read that you have to drown yourself until you only have 10hp or less. There is no way that the puzzle indicates to which extent you should do so but I suppose as you drown the way ahead becomes clear....

My school's having an inset day today, so I think I'll get back into this. Either that or complete Halo, or start Max Payne.
I bargain-hunted with some witchy woman in Balmora.
Had 100 disposition towards me.
Bought a Masters somethingorother for 1000 less than the price, then sold it back for 1000 more.
Kept doing that and eventually I ended up with 53,000.
Then I killed her, stripped her of her robes (left them on the floor) and tried to knock shelves over.

Oh that's a good point. I had loads of expensive items and couldn't find anyonw with enough money to buy them. Then I realised I was being dim. I then approached a trader who had an equally expensive item or items I required and "traded" mine in against theirs. So I would click on their item first, be 60,000 down on the transaction and then start reducing this by selling some of my items.
Soon you'll be festooned with sharp swords and stuff.

Yup. Even wearing armour is "a skill". So for example if you're skilled in Heavy armour you reap the full worth of a suit of heavy armour. Thus someone wearing the glass armour who is skilled in light armour might well derive AC of 20 or something. Man I'm getting geeky.
You get my drift.
My Ebony armour is awesome, smacked up some Wizard dude in a Daedric shrine and took it from him. Instead of gauntlets the armour provides bracers which keep hands free for more successfull spell casting and scratching those hard to reach extremities.
Anyway I'm still to journey to Mournhold (Tribunal) and buy myself a PackRat to carry all my loot around for me, make my tea and chase after Khajit.

So I'm best off flogging it and sticking on the Orcish armour in the other chest?
Trouble is, nobody has enough ££ to pay anything like the asking price for my lovely Glass Armour.

Nighthawk was the bravest motorbike it has been my privilege to watch on TV.
Yeah glass item are always expensive, perhaps because they are light. If your armour skill was light armour, the AC would be higher. That said light armour is for non-Nord nonces, give me Ebony and Ivory so we can live together in harmony my Redguard brother.

Well I restarted a new game as a Redguard, got the blinding boots and cuirass that protects you from it, now I speed about like Nighthawk.
But on foot.
I also managed to open a chest in Ald'ruhn Fighters guild that gave me glass armour.
It's worth silly money, 210000 for the cuirass but the armour rating is 8.
Which sucks.
Why so precious yet so bad?

That's a bit above the belt!
One thing I've found with Morrowind is that you can become impervious to most assults very quickly if you keep improving the same attributes at every level. Now I have a strength of 96 etc, Ebony armour (150 AC) and some enchanted swords. The only foe I've met I can't vanquish (as I have not long range capacity) is that Orc uber-warrior who hangs around near Suran. He's also finding it tiresome that he hasn't met his match in battle. I'll take him down soon and when I do, his lovley sword is going to make me a fearsome prospect.
Out of interest has anyone solved the Puzzle canal "breathe the water of his spirit and yea shall pass through that water barrier" (not exact verbatem)? I've guzzled water breathing potions, and so on, but can't get through the wall of water. Any ideas?
