Buying Enchanting Services Discovery - Not a Cheat / Exploit |
|
I'm sure many here know this already, but I was psyched to discover this bartering feature:
After a great run of dungeon romping and treasure gathering I want to Balorma to have a Summoning Frost Atronach Ring made. First I bribed the enchanter 200 Drakes to get her disposition to 100% which saves thousands, then I bought the ring for about 21,000 Drakes.
On the way out of the menus I noticed her Gold was at 23,000 or so - so I sold off an Enchanted Glass Shield for some 14,000 Drakes - and it worked! That's a cool 12,000 Drakes more than I would otherwise have sold it for since I refuse to use the Mud Crab / Creaper exploit. This is real bartering that makes good rollplaying sense. In the end my ring only cost about 6,000 Drakes.
So now I will *always* make sure I've got a really expensive magic item to barter with before buying enchantments. One caveat - if you close all the dialogs and then barter, the Gold is back to normal (900 in this case).
Pretty cool eh? _________________ "For Innos!" |

Yes, I never did work out why the money you pay when enchanting disappears after saying goodbye. Maybe there's an Enchantment guild that takes all their money in dues but pays for their housing, but if you ask quickly enough it's too early for the heavies to have visited?
That, and training. Money you pay people should stay with that person, in my opinion. _________________ Charlie Dobbie
