No it doesnt. As much as hate that quest I couldn't bring myself to murder everyone


My intention is to murder everyone.

I thought you could. Well, that’s annoying. There aren’t any other well developed characters that come to mind beyond her and vampire waifu.

Killing Eola fails the quest, so it won’t be stuck in your log. You’ll need to kill the other guests though as they’re no longer of use to you (Banning and the meat merchant won’t leave if you calm them and the woman will remain hostile to you afterwards if you calm her).

Follow the quest all the way to the point you have to kill Verulus but instead of killing him, kill Eola and the other cannibals. He'll thank you for saving him and you get to wipe out the whole lot of 'em at once.

Fun times.

About Eola’s quest. Is it really cannibalism if an elf eats a human?

What about Khajiit and Argonians? Do they get h-meat privileges?

I swear to The One, I fucking hate “A Jarl’s Justice” as a non-stealth character. I will pummel Isran the next time I see him for giving me such a stupid, pain in the arse assignment. All the “Visiting Advisor” does is sit in one chair or the other and I can’t move to any spot where I’m not in plain fucking sight.

It’s one of those repeatables like the Companion’s repeatable quests (“Pest Extermination”, “hired muscle”, etc). I hate “A Jarl’s Justice” and “Hide and Seek”.

I can’t seem to avoid it. I’ve tried reloading to not get it so I’m just going to leave it and not take assignments from the Dawnguard anymore. That pisses me off since I intended to get the Rune Axe but apparently after hours of trying to get it I haven’t gotten the assignment.

Have you tried getting any fortify pickpocket gear and a potion of invisibility? Could help and just spam reload a quick save if it fails.

I guess I’ll have to enchant some gear. I mean, it’s not difficult but it’s bloody inconvenient and really shouldn’t give you the assignment if you’re crap at stealth.

Two things:

1. I already have that mod installed. What do you take me for, a pleb?
2. I'm insulted that you would dare to presume I'm in any way a FUCKING WEEB. Literally offended. I will remember this transgression, Naz.

I’m curious if anyone uses horses regularly and if so which if any of the named horses is their favorite?

Mine is Arvak for the simple fact you can summon him whenever needed and that he cannot die given that he’s from the soul cairn

Nah i never really bothered after my first few runs, prefer to run around on foot. And the mounted combat is clunky as fuck though it can be entertaining.

I never did that quest line because I couldn’t bring myself to kill people for no apparent reason.

Arvak unlike all other horses can’t die which gives him an advantage over all others. Never saw the need for any other

Shadowmere fucking slaps.

The horse you can spawn from the Dawnguard quests is also very helpful, because you don't use horses for speed, you use them to break the collision and physics with mountains so you can glitch your way to shortcuts.

Since the first thing I do in Skyrim is run around the map, finding every location I can, I can just fast travel everywhere I want when I'm just doing quests, so horses serve no purpose to me.

Fast travelling removes some of the appeal of the game, such as random road encounters and jumping in random barrows that you find.
