Morrowind Tips and Tricks! (Useful for Beginners)

In this video I detail some of my favourite tips and tricks in The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind! Some of these could also count as cheats and exploits too.
Let me know some of your own favourite Morrowind Tips and exploits below!

[@JB-xl2jc]

Fun fact, if you pick up the tax collector's gold and then immediately go and confront the murderer and kill him, you can then go to the census and excise office and complete the quest and get the reward, WITHOUT having to give up the 200 you find on the guy's body.

[@JustDaZack]

Just noticed, that in all these years, I've never ever been to the Warehouse at the start

[@Gilbals]

He didn't show the best part of it. it's full of moon sugar and skooma, which stacks like all the other potions. Mix with the Icarian Flight scrolls to jump literally anywhere. With Skooma rushing and the scroll, you could easily jump from one end of the island to the other, completely clearing Red Mountain in the process. Solstheim is literally a jump away, and if you have the Tamriel Expanded mod, you could probably clear Solstheim to Almalexia in a single jump.

[@normanmccollum6082]

I managed to get in there once, as I recall. I had been curious about it for a long time and eventually got around to actually sneakily breaking in. I recall it being fairly exciting, though I don't recall having actually found much that was interesting. Probably broke into it with a high-level character and thus all the gear was likely useless.

[@MaxPower-ke5rq]

Another pro tip for beginners: in Balmora there is a two story house next to the potion store with a lock lvl of 75 (or something like that, I don't remember exactly) but if you jump or levitate to the second floor there is another door that is either unlocked or has a low level lock. Once inside you can just open the front door without picking it. Inside this house is a dead guy on the floor and a bunch of storage space (boxes and barrels.) The dead guy also acts a bottomless storage space. Just move right in, it's a great easy to access base you can use for the rest of the game.

Near Gnisis there's a woman near a pond ( under a bridge I think? ) that says she lost her ring. It's a trap, and there's an invisible bandit that starts shooting you when you go in the water. Kill him and you get an amulet called "The Amulet of Shadows", Chameleon 80% for 60 seconds I think. Never played a game without it.

[@SaculNoshploda]

To add some clarity to this post (I went on a hunt for this after I saw your post), the woman is under a big Dwemer bridge that leads to Arkngthunch-Sturdumz. She is on the road toward Khuul and Ald Velothi to the north. Hang slightly west and you’ll find her under the bridge. She asks you to find a ring that is pretty, dang hard to find (in between the first and second plant from the south edge of the pool). Once you find it, they attack you. Kill them and take the spoils.

[@Lupy314]

Another good tip is the sword of white woe: in the guard tower in Balmora near Caius Cosades's house, on the second floor, there is a guard and a dresser and a bed. If you position yourself right, you can get up on the bed and then behind a pillar to grab the sword while the guard can't see you. The sword is an ebony longsword with a good enchantment, you can use it the whole game.

If you finish the quest with the dead tax collector and return his ring to the lady in the lighthouse, you profit 300 gold total from the tax office, 2 standard healing potions from returning the ring, and a house you can use after legally killing it's owner. There is also a book inside of the lighthouse worth ~300 gold, very easy to steal. Easily one of the simplest quests in the game with great rewards.

[@orrerybandcleveland1255]

A better way to use the Scrolls of Icarian Flight is just to use a levitate spell before you land so you don’t waste two scrolls for one jump.

[@medalex195322]

Or land in deep water if you can

[@exantiuse497]

A pro-tip for the boots of blinding speed: don't use a 100% magic resist spell, use a ~70% instead. The screen will be a little darker, but you will have a 30% blindness effect on you, and in Morrowind a small amount of blindness is actually a good thing because it INCREASES your chance to hit with melee weapons (it's supposed to decrease it but it was coded wrong). This makes hitting enemies with high agility like cliff racers easier, and the 70% resist magic spell is easier to cast than a 109% spell to boot

[@Kemachris]

Friendly reminder, this is only true if you play vanilla morrowind, the "Morrowind Code Patch" and probably other fix mods, fixes this error so that blindness correctly reduces your chance to hit instead of increasing it.

[@Adrastus_]

no thanks, im going with 100% resist

[@reesetorwad8346]

70% still darkens game too much, especially indoors, and yeah, some mods fix that coding error. 95% probably better, you'd barely notice that, and still get benefit.

[@dishsoap4824]

Thank god there's actually a way to get rid of those annoying pterodactyls out there

[@TheJustinShowAndCo]

Or just use savior’s hide

[@maiqtheliar789]

To add to this there is no need to waste another scroll of icarian to land safely. All you need is a spell with just 1 point of slowfall and it will negate all fall damage. Just cast it before hitting the ground and you are golden. The magic system in Morrowind is like that a bunch though where a lot of the magical effects aren't fully explained so best to experiment with all of them to find out what they do. Some of them have effects that will surprise you. Some of them are also surprisingly cheap to cast even for a non mage character that is just looking for an advantage in a fight such as blind to decrease how many hits you take from an enemy or sound to have enemy mages waste all their magicka trying and failing to cast spells. A experienced Morrowind player treats the magic system like Batman treats his utility belt as a bag of tricks that can help out of any situation even if you yourself are not a mage character. To add to this If a nonspellcaster character wants to have access to some spell casting in a pinch and has a hard time finding the proper spell in scroll form you can take just about any piece of paper in the game you find other than books and take them to an enchanter that for a price can enchant them to to your liking providing you can get the soul gems and know the spell effect. I personally pick up just about every piece of paper I find laying around and store it away in a crate somewhere just in case I need a scroll for a rainy day.

[@ianwalker2205]

You can get pieces of paper enchanted!?!

[@maiqtheliar789]

@@ianwalker2205 Yeah. They aren't the strongest enchantments of course but if you need a specific spell in a pinch and can't find what you need they will do.

@@maiqtheliar789 Wow.

[@maiqtheliar789]

@Andrew Sossaman No need to really save them either honestly. Racer Plumes and Trama Root are found everywhere and Coda Flowers are everywhere in the Bitter coast. All those can be used to make a levitation potion for free. Any combo of those will make you a levitate potion with no risk of it being anything else other than a levitation potion as the only effect they share is levitation. So feel free to brew all you want even if you can't see the effects on the ingredients quite yet. I love alchemy.

[@maiqtheliar789]

While I am sober and remember. I know these are older videos but JustRed has some really good videos for beginners that even an experienced player can learn stuff from if they haven't played in a while. She manages to break stuff down in a simple manner without boring you with a bunch of math and technical stuff and keep stuff interesting. Link to her Hitchhikers Guide to Morrowind right here kzbin.info/aero/PLB472F7A0E57751B7 . Hope that helps out some newer players.

[@silversilhouettes635]

For the tax collector, if you report his death to the guy who helps you create your class and follow the quest properly (shouldn't take too long) you'll actually end up gaining an additional 100 gold for a couple minutes of extra time. You'll also have a better rep with the Imperials, I think

[@Rickagon]

0:45 A better technique I found was to just enter your inventory (usually the right mouse button) and just click on the key with your left mouse button from there, and lay it back down. After you exit from your inventory, it will cause the same effect as with the Limeware Plate in the beginning, where the key becomes yours after Sellus Gravius talks to you and doesn't find the key in your inventory. Just remember to drop other stolen items before you do this, or they will get taken in the process.

[@mufeet7661]

[@rob679]

-Always use weapon type you have some points in, at full stamina bar, otherwise you will miss a lot of hits. If you want to level other weapon types easier without trainer, using Bound Weapon spells give you temporary weapons with 10pts bonus to corresponding skills. Picking Conjuration as your major skill also gives free Bound Dagger spell that like with Hearth Heal from Restoration is fantastic for early game, and eliminates the problem of dealing with Ghosts. -Telekinesis skill, while looking quite worthless, allows you to steal things from places you normally would be seen and set off traps. Traps shoot a projectile that you can dodge by moving your char out of the way. -Mark & Recall can save you trouble coming back to places with very confusing layout or navigation (looking at you, Vivec City) -Frenzy allows you to force NPCs that refuse to talk to you to attack you. It's not considered assault -Enchantments recharge by themselves while resting, but you can also Soultrap own summons

I did that until all attributes were 100k...except speed. No enemy can hit me. My character is so strong that any melee weapon pretty much breaks first hit so I use daggers and throwing stars.

[@flashtirade]

This isn't an early-game strat, but I recreated the power of the flight scrolls by stacking jump enchantments. I did this by paying someone at the mages' guild to enchant a set of exquisite clothing (shirt, pants/skirt, belt, shoes, and 2 rings and an amulet [these can be extravagant instead]) using grand soul gems with a high-powered jump spell that lasts long enough to stack all the casting and get a running start (I usually did 70 points for 7 seconds). I also had to take some form of slowfall with me to not only make sure I didn't explode on landing, but also to stop early, since a jump with minimal load could launch me clear across the entire island. Before I reached my destination I'd start slowfalling early, since trying to do it just before landing often didn't work out. The money to do all this came from raiding the Hlaalu vaults and selling everything there to the Mudcrab Merchant, who has the deepest pockets, though I'd have started hoarding gold long before that.

[@christophercagley]

I know it’s a few years late but! You can go get the tax man’s gold and then directly to kill the murder (name is a male dark elf being charged 200 gold in taxes) and then go turn the quest in which lets you keep the 200 + the 500 for solving the murder!(DO NOT START QUEST THROUGH DIALOGUE! MUST GO STRAIGHT TO DEAD TAX COLLECTOR AND THEN KILL THE DARK ELF THEN TURN IN QUEST FOR THE EXTRA GOLD!) You can also give the ring to the lady in the lighthouse for two additional potions, then kill her and take back the ring plus loot all of the lighthouse and you can use this as a house or base for the rest of the game if you want! After turning the healing ring into Fargoth your high disposition with Arielle makes living in town a good choice! In the stump closest to the lighthouse there is also extra gold and a silver cup worth something like 13 gold! The second or third set of swamps on your right leaving the starting town is another tree stump that has an enchanted dagger and 50 more gold! You can kill all NPC’s in the starting town INSIDE their home’s (usually locked and these NPC’s won’t leave or call guards), which bumps up gold from the start with no extra mercantile somewhere around 2500+ before leaving the tutorial! There is also one unmarked quest where you speak to the imperial citizen and ask about advice, he will send you to the stilt strider and if you use his name when speaking to her she sends you back to him where you can trade 100 gold for an enchanted ring! Basically ALWAYS check any tree stumps for extra loot! Some even require very high Acrobatics skill or some low level levitate to see but do have loot, outside of Khuul is one that has a skull and a glass jinkblade worth 4900 gold! I just really love this game and am still finding new things out from time to time! HOPE THIS HELPS

[@theicedevil]

For PC versions only, you actually don't need to grab the limeware platter first and then pull it out of your inventory. What I do is bring up the inventory first, when I'm in arm's length of the platter. While still in the inventory menu, you can grab the platter with your pointer and then drag it off to the edge of the screen and then drop the platter. It still counts as stealing and the guards still react, but they cannot move until you leave inventory menu. It just gives you that little extra time. This method also gives you a whole lot of time to steal pretty much everything in the room. Just don't pick up everything off the ground until you are all finished stealing, because even though you can pick them all up again without repercussion, the items are still flagged as stolen, and the guard will take everything if they are in your inventory.

You can get a full set of Indoril Armor and the enchanted Hair Shirt of St. Aralor from the Ordinator corpse on the ground at Kogoruhn, you don't even need to go inside. You can travel by silt strider from Seyda Neen to Balmora to Ald Ruhn to Khuul and make your way east to Kogoruhn. This is great loot from an undefended (there may be some dreamers around, but you can likely one shot then with the axe from the tree stump in Seyda Neen) corpse at the beginning of the game.

if you want to get a lot of gold quick too you can always raid the Redoran vaults, if you are in vivc and at the redoran plaza, the mansion inside with the walls around it (Dralor Manor) has a key in the upper room in one of the drawers, you can position yourself with the door to not get detected and take the key, then head to the redoran treasury and then the vaults, and you can open the treasure rooms inside, if you wait the guards will leave and you can get around 100K gold from my experiences (selling the stuff to the Creeper in Caldera is good aswell because he has 0 Mercantalism which means he buys at full price)

[@nrais76]

There's 200 gold on the tax collector. I'd you do the quest, giving his ring to the lady in the lighthouse gets you two healing potions, and informing the census and excise dude you took care of it gets you a 500 gold reward.

Additionally, for a big come up, taunt and ordinator into attacking you and take his armor. creeper will buy it at its posted value. you will also get some skill ups from fighting the ordinator probably.

[@imma5269]

Awesome video man thank you

[@jawnTem]

It's easier to do this if you open your inventory drop them down and then while in the "blank" inventory, magic, and other screens, simply pick up each item that you want to steal and drop them on the floor to pick up later when you get out of your inventory and other screens. You can rob the money boxes and many other things throughout the game. They only stop you once you get back into the game or if they see you.

[@zorken1924]

Great video, thank you

[@radred1882]

Huh, I've been playing Morrowind for a little over 9 months now and I'm impressed about the stuff you can find around the world tbh! Didn't know about the dagger under the pillow nor of the ring.

[@TheLaughingSimon]

Just what I was looking for.

[@OriginalChaosEpoch]

Another pro strat. If you're trying to steal something to keep it, but you know that a guard will catch you. (such as 0:52) you can grab the item while you're in your inventory. Simply be in range of the object. Open up your inventory screen, manage your UI boxes so that you can see the item and then pick up and drop the item back into the gameworld (not into your inventory as this will fail) while you're still paused in your inventory. You will still be caught, but this completely eliminates any risk of having the item taken away by the guards since there's no way for them to react to your action. Then simply go back to where you were and pick up the item and it's yours.

[@recovery1977]

I've been playing this game since release, I knew most of these but there were a couple that made me raise an eyebrow and look forward to my next playthrough

[@tysej4]

As for the Warehouse key, pick it up whilst in the inventory (Does not work on Xbox). Because time is stopped you can then immediately drop it without worrying about gettint caught with it.

[@TheStuffedIguana]

If you walk to balmora rather than using the silt strider you gain enough mushrooms to do the first 2 quests of the makes guild, making the wood elf on the top floor move. This means you can steal all of the soul gems she's next to, so you can sell them to creeper

[@corntastrophy]

I just use them to enchant my gear at the Vivec guild.

[@daysoffluff]

this is my favorite tips and tricks video!

[@ivailok3376]

I'm playing Morrowind for the first time since a few days, I'm absolutely loving the game. It's a shame they don't make games like this one anymore.

[@TheSynthPunk]

Extremely late reply, but definitely keep an eye out for Wayward Realms and Avowed. Wayward Realms is an indie project by ex-Bethesda employees who worked on Daggerfall and Avowed is a first person RPG by Obsidian, both feel like a direct jab at newer Bethesda RPGs.

[@RandallStevenson]

I know one that you didn't cover. Go to the redoran town , join the mages guild and do all of the quests there the final reward is an amulet of divine intervention and a amulet of almsivi intervention, most useful for non mage builds

[@Joshuazx]

I like that Haters gonna Hate walk your avatar does at the end of the video.

[@jman1268]

You also forgot the imperial scale mail armour in that room about arills trade house in seyda neen. Its under the bed. I had no idea that sword was under the pillow and ive been breaking into that room for years lol

[@KrutchesRDH]

For the Warehouse Key, if you open up inventory you can grab it and drop it then pick it up like the limeware platters

[@tomivalkonen1343]

i never knew about that warehouse key on the shelf at the beginning or axe in the trunk. 🤷🤯🧠🧠

[@user-fi1sx6uo2o]

Micky rockin the monk haircut, nice bro.

[@sorrowful.sparrow]

"if you pass the naked man, you're going the right way." ah, morrowind.

[@gabedawg]

i like the part about umbra and the sujama lol.

[@nrais76]

A few of these I did not know. Or did not remember. But yeah, good tips. Thanks. Doing a replay.

[@Adonioflight]

Hey man love your videos i hope your doing well the world seems to be getting real crazy lately

[@johanmontanez7417]

In Seyda Neen in the lock level 40 tavern there is also scale armor under the bed that the knife is on

[@Xenon_Chameleon]

The boots of blinding speed have improved the game drastically for me. Thanks for the tip. I also learned recently that if you don't want to use the boots to travel you can also open console with the tilde key and type coc "insert city name here, insert location in city here" to fast travel to specific locations. Morrowind does have silt strider & boat travel so it's totally cheating but it's nice to save a couple minutes walking back to Balmora after grabbing flowers or something. example: coc "balmora, guild of mages"

[@TheSynthPunk]

I mean, you can have the same effect totally legit with Intervention scrolls/spells/amulets, or recall and mark spells. Biggest drawback with divine and almsivi intervention is that you need to have a rough idea to what town you will be teleported, but with Mark/recall you can just teleport back to whatever town you marked with no issues.

[@dylanskutches3539]

Life changing thank you

[@lagunalibre117]

Also grab the books before picking up the platter. 50g each. And there is another book up the lightouse worth 250g. There is a sword in a guard tower in balnora worth 17k repaired, jump sneak, open inv and grab. Ald’rhun guard towers have armor you can steal and sell.

[@elsdodo]

A little bit south-east from the east gate of Gnisis, across the river, there is the Falas Ancestral Tomb in which you can find the Denstagmer's Ring. It has 30% resist fire, ice and shock and is worth 12k gold. There also seem to be no enemies preventing you to get that ring on level 1. At least there weren't any the last two times I got there on level 1.

[@ProfArmitage218]

The tomb contains three leveled daedra, but two of them don't spawn until the player is level 3 or higher. At level 1 there should have been a scamp there. The wiki says none of the daedra spawn until level 3, but one of the leveled lists used is in_dae_all_lev-2, which should spawn a scamp at level 1. EDIT: I just checked with a level 1 character, and a scamp does spawn, but it's in a locked side room, so you can avoid it while getting the ring. The side room has a skill book in it though.

[@elsdodo]

@@ProfArmitage218 I also tried it on multiple level 1 characters now, and the only enemy is in the locked side room, as you say. But, when I tried this once on the OpenMW version of the game, there was an enemy guarding the urn. Not sure anymore if it was a scamp or bonewalker though.

[@Heidinskapur]

In the Creeper's house there is some Orcish Armor too, look inside the boxes in the upper floor.

[@oldgamerchick]

In Balmora look in the guards barracks. Upstairs on a wardrobe is a cool sword. Make sure no ones watching and take it. Also in Balmora you can take everything you find in the boxes and such that are around the city outside. And if you open the console command type in coc toddtest you will go to a fun place. When your ready to leave type coc and the name of a town like Balmora and you will teleport back

[@ccpantsx3793]

Also there is a "free" Ebony sword in one of the watchtowers in balmora. It's on top of a closet but very easy to steal

[@allenellisdewitt]

No wonder it's buggy, they kept adding more cool secret things!

[@hillmeu]

"your acrobatics skill increased to 1006"

[@iamradical]

Haha I just started this game and came across the guy that fell out of the sky. I had no idea why and thought it was a glitch. I didn’t try the scroll.

[@fungustheturd4004]

Extra tip: If you want to start your way to break the game with alchemy, go to the temple in balmora and just to the right there will be a guy that sells Marshmerrow and Wickwheat. Buy as much of both as you can and then make lots of restore health potions that you can sells for a very good price to become rich since the start of the game and have an infinite supply of potions making the game bullshit easy

[@sadlife8495]

ty

[@exantiuse497]

If you wamt to break the game with alchemy I recommend fortify intelligence potions. Buy ~150 ash yams from vivec foreign quarter healer, 150 bloat from one of the mage guild alchemists, then start making and drinking potions. Potion effects stack and intelligence makes your potions stronger, after about 100 potions you'll have intelligence of 40-50 thousand and you can make insane potions. Make the rest of the bloat and ash yam into intelligence potions so you can drink them whenever you want to make more potions, then make whatever crazy potions you want. Restore health, magicka or fatigue 1500 for 4500 seconds, levitate 500 points for 4500 seconds.... or just sell them to the creeper for 5000 each. Super fun but takes all challenge away from the game

[@ramencakes5196]

Your tip is underrated

[@TheSilliestWilly]

I kept whiffing and getting one shot by Umbra so I went and built up my weapon skill by a few levels to increase the chance of hitting him. I then went back to Umbra and drank 35 Sujamma and took a swing at him. My alcohol fueled axe finally connected and hit him with the force of a thousand exploding suns. He died in one hit.

[@J.0.E]

Yea I've died at least 5 times so far trying to get a hit in and having to drink each potion one at a time is torture.

[@Jahn_Pah_Jonz]

Cheater.

[@TheAnon03]

Didn't know about the key, that's new. Pretty sure you get more gold +potions of healing if you solve his murder (and are honest while doing so) Good tip for the boots need to try that.

[@wawawawawaaaw3090]

If you don't want to waste a scroll to not die from the scroll of icarian flight. Do a very easy quest that's just to the right on the way to balmora on the way to suran. You kill three little creatures and he gifts you with an amulet of slow falling. You can just use thay anytime anywhere

[@Nuklyr09]

I've been a fan of TES since oblivion and tried getting into morrowind but the hit boxes are so weird but I'll try again.
