Is it possible to catch vampirism twice , i've been told i am infected, went to see the old witch and she wasnt interested.

I drank a cure disease potion about an hour afterwards, does it tell you its cleared up?

Look at your self on the first tab of your X button, you'll see if you infected. Also you'd have Vampire attributes.


Completed the Dark Brotherhood side quest the other day, last two achievements were easy.

And the fighters guild, i got dropped two levels, not my fault the ****** died.

Right i think i've fecked uo after doing a quest for the Fighters Guild, i've been sent to explore some strange lights outside a cave, the poeple in the local village say members of their village have been to investigate but didn't return.
Well the strange lights were Willo-the-Wisps, went in the cave killed a few trolls and headed for the green marker, searched the skeletons and zombies at the marker, nothing. Searched the caves some more and killed a few more trolls, it then Updated my quest telling me i should investigate more to find out if the trolls were responsable for the villagers disappearance, well i can't find anything and did i search the skeletons and zombies before i was meant to?

it's a known bug - do a google on the name of the cave and you'll find a method of setting the quest as complete. The same thing happened to me.

Did you make sure ALL trolls are dead, it updates your quest once they are all gone, a detect life spell or artifact comes in useful for caves.

This has to be the most expensive game I've ever bought...

£20 for the game, then £120 for a graphics card to run it! (My old one was running about 2 seconds per frame).

Looking forward to playing it now though.

John.

Uh-oh... I'm still addicted to World of Warcraft, though I've only had that a few months.

Looks like I need more hours in a day!

This doesn't always work - especially if you have previously visited the cave and killed trolls / will o' the wisps before.

there is a fix available tho' - I just haven't got the link to hand that tells you what to do

The official patch which came out yesterday is supposed to cure this.

The evididence from the official forums suggests that the patch does NOT fix already borked games, just prevents the problem from occuring in new ones. If you're on the PC then it's time to get the console up.

Well it seems the problem is, after a quick Google, i visited Swampy cave before i received the Fighters Guild quest.
I searched the cave including skeletons, zombies and the important body in question needed to complete the quest on my first visit. When you leave the cave the body dis-appears, thus meaning when you need to find and search this body it's not there meaning you can't complete the quest........****!!


As above there is meant to be a patch that fixes all the problems, i haven't seen or received it via Xbox Live.
