@@sgtpastry Is that a touch of sourness? Don't worry, if Jon ever decides he absolutely needs Daedric Spear, it will still be there on that merchant. As a bonus, if he rebuys it for 20K, we all will be able to mock him then.

[@findthetraveler]

That is one thing about super high value items. It’s valuable, but so what? If you can’t sell it or trade it, what’s the point? It was sad to see the Daedric spear go. High quality items can take more powerful enchantments. Recall back to balmora, drop it off and take the silt strider back to Gnisis.

@@findthetraveler You can get full value for expensive items buy doing the Creeper shuffle. Sell Creeper a bunch of cheap stuff and then wait for 24 hours to reset his gold. Once Creeper has a bunch of cheap items you can sell the expensive item to him and buy back the cheaper items. Then sell back the cheap items and wait 24 hrs until you've sold all the cheap items back to him. Alternatively you can pay someone to make an expensive enchantment for you and then sell the expensive item to get back the gold you spent enchanting the item.

[@shetlandapache949]

Loving the series so far. One tip around selling super expensive stuff: 1) scrolls are expensive and light so enchanters are great people to trade high-value gear to 2) if you pay for training after a small transaction, that shopkeeper should have the money you spent to train letting ypu basically trade expensive gear for levels

[@varthaner4617]

Or even better, for enchanting. A top class custom enchanted item can cost 150K or more, depending on trading abilities. Daedric items make for excellent barter for taking your cash back from those greedy, greedy enchanters.

point two works even better with enchanters where you can get a 100k+ enchantment and then trade high value loot for it in return.

Daedric weapons aren't that unique considering Dremora and Golden Saints can randomly spawn with them, so they are technically infinite (maybe not bows because I don't know if they ever spawn with those) Daedric armor on the other hand is very limited and in the base game, you couldn't even get a full set of it unless you killed a certain NPC who wore the full set sans helmet.

So this is one of the things I love about Morrowind, the ambiguity makes you think about things. Spoilers for other quests below. It seems fairly obvious, on the face of it, that Hlormar is a chauvinist pig who probably tried to assault the woman. But what you don't know yet is that there are two other men who ALSO have problems with a witch - it's not explicitly said that she's the same person, but it's a reasonable inference. Oh, and it just so happens that all three men happen to be nords. A coincidence? Maybe, but consider her comment about Hlormar's "little nord eyes", which for all we know could be a racist trope in this universe. And her offer? She wants to meet him at the Balmora Mage's Guild. Is that really a neutral location? You've already seen the tip of the iceberg on the skullduggery that goes on there, and you're going to see more. Of course, it's also possible she's telling the truth. Hlormar probably didn't get the nickname "wine-sot" for nothing, after all. Maybe the other naked nords on the road had nothing to do with any of this, and she's just an innocent woman who doesn't know about how the Mage Guild operates and just sees it as a place where she's safe. Maybe she IS racist against nords, but Hlormar also just happens to be a chauvinist prick who got what he deserved (this is the most likely, in my opinion). The game won't tell you - interpret it yourself.

[@Kyle-yn5hy]

Here's a tip for selling: Step 1) Find a bunch of dwemer coins, these are light, worth a good amount of money, and plentiful. Step 2) Find a merchant with an already fairly high amount of gold, whose gold resets after 24 hours. Sell your dwemer coins to them a few at a time, resting 24 hours in between, so you maximise your gold returns. Step 3) when you have a big ticket item, find this merchant again and buy back as many dwemer coins as you can, this will inflate their gold amount. Then, sell your item to the merchant. Step 4) rest 24 hours, and then repeat step 2 with the dwemer coins you just bought. This works best with certain merchants who I won't spoil, but these merchants will buy your items at true value.

[@origulator]

Just as a clue, currently the trader with the biggest amount of money in its inventory you have access to is in Caldera. You might need to look around a bit to find him because he's not in a shop, but once you do you'll tell him apart from the other vendors real easy.

[@JoeyPsych]

If you really like this architecture, I advice you to visit Ald Ruhn and join House Redoran. Each House you join gives you a house of your own once you advance far enough, however, you can only join one House , and House Redoran is the one with the same architecture as in Gnisis. Do note though that Each House represents a particular playstyle, and Redoran is the warrior House. Telvanni is the House of magic, and Hlaalu is the House of... let's say diplomacy. So think well before making a choise in this regard.

[@taka2721]

I wouldn't recommend Redoran on first playthrough as they don't give you much in a way of reward, despite the fact that they are my favourite house Hlaalu flushes you with gold while Telvanni give you some nice artifacts, Redoran for the most part gives you nothing

Problem with Hlaalu is, while it is a house where Twin Lamps hide, it's also House of many Slavers, some of them top Hlaalu. Telvanni don't catch slaves, but they do keep them, shelter at least one slaver, and there's a point when Telvanni Lord murders a slave in front of player (depending on choices).

@@XDieKillDieX I mean they use Slaves, as evidenced by "Crush Slave rebellion" quest, but do not actively catch and trade them as a source of income, the way some Hlaalu councilors do. Telvanni Lords are too high and mighty to do it personally, they are arrogant and often inhumane, but Hlaalu are greedy and shameless.

Selling expensive stuff in morrowind is just pure cheese, you need to sell a bunch if cheaper stuff first, then sell the expensive bit and buy back the cheap stuff to bring the value back down to the merchant limit, and then sell the cheap stuff again. There is a merchant in Caldera that has 5000 gold limit but i wont spoil for you who or what it is :)

PLEASE find a container to store non-essential inventory in. You don't have to play the entire game with a full inventory. There is a storeroom in Balmora (top floor of the Inn south of the temple) with barrels, chests, bags, and sacks.

Jon when it comes to selling daedric items in future just be aware there are some daedric items so rare that there's like only one copy of them in the whole game. Just bare than in mind when giving a merchant the best deal.of his life.

35:15 its pronounced "Dregg." Like the word 'Drag" except switch the A with an E

How to tell jon about the best merchant, without spoiling the surprise about the best merchant... Also Jon, not sure if its patched in your version, but back in the day there used to be a glitch that really cheesed the game early. Not saying you do this, just giving a bit of history. You can summon bound gear (armor and weapons) and while they're active, drop them on the ground. When you pick them back up, after the enchantment time is gone, they remain for the rest of the game. So it was a way to get really good, weightless, weapons and armor.

I feel I need to point this out, but the areas that start with "GN", the G is silent, so Gnisis is pronounced Nisis

When I played this years ago, I refused to wear that hat because I thought it was too ugly...

I've been watching Jon's playthrough of night of the Old Republic at the same time of watching this and I swear to God the soundtracks overlap

Magic shops are best for dealing daedric gear. You can trade you heavy stuff for much lighter scrolls, soul gems and magic stuff.
