This quest has been explained in detail more than once. You can filter the solutions out with the search function.
The quest has a time limit.

@Gorath-Do you know how long that time limit is? I've had the quest for quite a while, and I've only been able to find four Blood Chalices.
@Elverath-There's a fourth one in the chest in Lehmar the moneylender's house. Wait until 2:00 a.m. and then sneak in and take it.

You have to pickpocket judge and valentino for their keys. Their chests are hidden also. Use ctrl on the shield upstairs for the judge's. and use ctrl on an unlit lamp upstairs for Valentino's
@mageoffire
I think there is a 2 ch time limit. I had it once and didn't complete because of all the knights standing in line in ch 5. I had picked it up in ch 3 I think.

SPOILER ALERT!
I had to use this walkthrough for this quest. This passage is courtesy of the walkthrough by Ellusion found on GameFAQ's.
C1.2.Q19 QUEST: The Blood Chalices
After completing the Constantino's Ring quest and becoming a full member of
the Thieves Guild, you can ask Cassia for more work and she will tell you
about the famed Blood Chalices. Some historic treasure that would be very
valuable to collectors if the full set was gathered. This quest absolutely
requires you to know both Sneaking, Lock Picking and Pick Pocketing. You also
need to complete S9 Valentino for his chest key.
There are 6 chalices in total, almost all of them located in the upper quarter
of Khorinis, so you need acess there as well. It's quite possible to get some
of these outside the Thieves Guild, and they will sell to merchants for less
than a normal gold chalice separately. If you do happen to do this though, be
sure to remember who you sold it to.
The First Blood Chalice
Or the easiest one to get for now. It seems one of the upper quarter citizens
borrowed some money from Lehmar, one Lutero, and Lehmar keeps a Blood Chalice
as safety. You'll be clued into this later if you happen to visit Lutero's
house, prefferably at night. The blood chalice is found in the chest in
Lehmar's house.
The Second Blood Chalice
Is located in the upper quarter, as is the rest of them too once you have the
first. When you enter the upper quarter you have houses lining the right side,
so we'll start there. You have to do this at night, sneaking into the houses
without being noticed, otherwise you'll have the paladins on your tail soon
enough. The first house on the right belongs to a mister Gerbrandt. Take care
so Lothar doesn't see you entering the house, otherwise you're fine.
Loot the place clean, ground and first floor. In a chest on the first floor -
the combination is RR-L-RR-L, you'll find the second Blood Chalice.
The Third Blood Chalice
Out of Gerbrandt's house and into the next on the right using the same stealth
and caution. Loot the place clean and head upstairs. Nod to Valentino's wife
(yep, this is his house, but he's out drinking probably) and notice the lamp
on the wall on top of the stairs. It's the only lamp in the house that is NOT
lit. Position yourself in front of it and press the mousebutton as you would
pick up or use something and you should activate a hidden lever. Don't stand
to close, but move around a bit to get it right. This will open a hidden room
downstairs.
You can also pick the chest here - combination LL-RR-LL. Downstairs again,
you'll see the hidden room and a chest by the fireplace. Open the chest using
Valentino's key from earlier (see C1.2.S9 Valentino) for the third Blood
Chalice.
The Fourth Blood Chalice
The now 'deposed' judge and former head of Khorinis owns the fourth chalice.
His house is on the right side of the town hall, with a special guard outside.
You have to do this by day though. Enter the house and head upstairs to talk
to the judge. You'll get an option to pick pocket his key (dex30) and also
note a coat of arms (the shield) hanging strangely low on the wall behind the
armchair here. Use it to activate a hidden lever downstairs. You might have to
do this by night.
Downstairs you'll see the hidden room right next to the fireplace, and a chest
requiring the judge's key. Inside is the fourth chalice.
The Fifth Blood Chalice
From entering the upper quarter through the main gate, pass the first house,
and head left through the alley. Continue staying to the left and there are 4
houses lined up in a half-circle around the square here. The first belongs to
Fernando, the second to Lutero, the chap that gave his chalice to Lehmar to
borrow some coin. We want the third house however. At night, Wambo or a city
guard is patrolling this area rather suspiciously and it can be a bit tricky
to enter the second house. You can pay off Wambo with 250 gold if you want, if
you previously talked to Ramirez about the upper quarter - Wambo will then
stay away, but it isn't neccesary. Early in the morning (around 4-6), only the
city guard will stand watch, and he can be fooled. Position yourself one step
outside the doorway to the second house and turn your back againts the opening
looking at the city guard. Take one step back into the house and he comes
running - step out again quickly and hear him tell you to stay the hell out of
there. As he turns to walk back to his spot, hit sneak and take one step back
again and you are into the house. A step to the side will put you behind the
wall so he can't see you.
Inside, check out the fireplace - there's a key on it that can be a bit tricky
to spot and grab. When sneaking you probably have to sneak up on the crate of
logs for the fire, then exit sneak mode to get the key in your focus. Grab it
and use it to open the chest between the beds in the opposite end of the
house. Inside is the fifth chalice.
The Sixth Chalice
You probably won't have access here yet, as this requires you to have come as
far as getting an audience with Lord Hagen. Whatever way you do that, once
inside the town hall, head upstairs and check out the rooms there. The sixth
and final chalice is located on a table here. Just grab it and you're all set.
Geir Gundersen adds: "You can jump the fence and sneak along the wall,
around the corner and behind the two guards"
Indeed, this works just as well if you want to finnish this quest without
joining any of the guilds just yet. As long as you're not directly in front of
the guards, you won't trigger them stopping you and can safely loot the town
hall, including the sixth chalice. A word of advice though, it's actually
possible to start off chapter 2 without joining a guild, but this can have
dire consequences for your further progress.
With all six chalices safely in your knapsack, return to Cassia for +300xp and
a choice award from her selection. You can choose between a Ring of Iron Skin
(+5 Weapon AC) wich you probably already have one of by now - it's worth about
30 gold. Othwerwise, you can have 4 Elixirs of Healing (+100hp) or 400 gold.
I'd go with the potions, but that's me.
Cassia will also explain that you're pretty much done now and that she won't
have anything else to do for you. The only real thing left is a small task for
Ramirez, and a quest for Jesper if you didn't kill him. |
