Man, waiting til lvl 21 to go to Kvatch is not a great idea.

3.5 hours for this quest? Im about 30 mins in, heading to the tower now. The only thing really bad so far are the atronachs, and thankfully I remembered I have a few full staves of cold and fire to blast them with.Grabbing the 20 dmg claymores there is pretty sweet too.Daedroth's and at 13, it wasn't a picnic.

Im also playing a Spellsword, but went alot more heavy on the fighting, choosing a Nord over the Breton. He can fight excellently, but having 40 INT is very limiting.

Welshers and Dawdlers Beware!
How the freak are you supposed to get Magicka up so high? I have seen spells that require over 400 Magicka, and since INT is capped at 100 naturally, it seems pretty hard to get it up much more than that, even with racial bonuses.
Also, is there ever a time when you can add more than 1 effect to a magical item created? I see items in the game with multiples, but whenever I try to enchant an item, I only get one shot.

The only thing I've been able to put multiple enchants on are weapons so far. You just have to have a big enough soul to cover itOoh, interesting. So as Destruction goes up, Magicka comes down?

If youve got the Soul, and a weapon cool enough to handle it, you can get the enchantments.Daedric and Ebony weapons enchant better than a Steel or Iron for example.Ooh, interesting.

I just started this at lvl 23 today. I was getting my ### kicked until I started using the Greater Staff of Fire -- then I was mowin mother####ers down. I had to quit playing earlier but I think I am almost done with it. I just told homie that the Count is dead and he said we can't leave until we get his ring. I hope I'm nearly done, anyway....this quest is a royal beeeyotch.

Just finished it after taking a break. Got a nice surprise the first time I went back to town as I ended up with a 1000 bounty on my head for apparently wiping out a few guards in Kvatch with area magic spells. Makes you kind of wonder how it got reported I killed them if no one saw...

I got curious about "mods" for the game, so I did some homework and found two incredibly useful links:
Pretty much all you need here
One stop shopping
Good stuff here. The 2nd link pretty much incorporates everything I'd like to "adjust".
Hope this helps/enhances the game for us all!

I already encountered the MD crew in teh sewers early on when I was trying to get the 4th book....I hope this $21K ring is after that, because none of the guys I killed then had anything that valuable....

I just found out that it gets "unlocked" when you finish all the DB quests. Supposed to be crazy powerful. Hold on to it!

It might have something to do with me being lvl 23 while doing it. I dont know if his drop is specific or random.
Its 35% reflect/50% resist magic.

Did anyone else notice that you can't kill certain people. When you attack them they are just unconcious. I assume they are people that are primarily related to a quest.
