Hey! Who stole my soul gems? |
|
Every once in a while I will lose all the soul gems from my inventory. I'm thinking it's a save-game problem, but I can't say for sure.
Is this a known issue? It seems to have started only recently.
What's happening? Help! |

Can't say I've run into that particular problem before!
Were they really yours, or did you steal them? All stolen goods will be taken from you if you get arrested by a guard - could that be what's going on? _________________ Charlie Dobbie

No, they weren't stolen. Hmmmm.
I'm beginning to wonder if soul gems might be vulnurable to magic damage. My character's been dowsed pretty bad a few times (80% resistant at this point).
Thanks. |

I really doubt that soul gems could be destroyed by magic damage. |

This happened to me last night!
I was killing a monster outside of Caldera and I unintentionally hit a guard during the battle.
I paid the 50 Drake fine and about a half hour later (after several saves) I noticed that I had lost at least 10 empty soul gems!
Based on scanning the forums I'm guessing they are in an "Evidence Box", closest one is probably Moonmuth fort prison. _________________ "For Innos!" |

That's probably what happened.
There's bug (never fixed, AFAIK) that once you steal a type of item (say a Petty Soul Gem), that type of item will always be considered stolen -- even if you drop it and buy others of it. The ones you will buy will still be considered stolen. |

Well there is simply one thing to do - go on a murderous rampage in Caldera with my hellspawn army until they cough them up.
gdgrimm, please read my "Mage Tips" thread I just updated on conjuring - I'm very interested in your feedback. _________________ "For Innos!" |

So my stuff was in fact in Moonmoth Fort - Prison Tower basement. Its was in an "Evidence" chest. Problem is - its guarded.
I tried a snatch and grab by doing a "Recall" right in front of the guard, but I got socked with the amazing Morrowind *cell phone* phenomenon. Apparently all cities are linked via Cellular transmission towers cleverly hidden in the various Dwemer ruins accross the island .
So I guess I'll keep a lookout for either
a) Cellular Towers - to be destroy on sight
b) A Frenzy Humanoid Spell. If I can get her to attack me I'll beat her to death with her phone.
I hate to say it, but this "Phenomenon" is actually the weakest feature of the game. Very unrealistic that Balorma would know about my crime as soon as I materialize in the Fighters Guild in front of my favorite weapons Seller.
