Craziest event you've seen

Post » Tue May 17, 2011 4:17 pm

What's the craziest thing you've seen on Oblivion? (I know this has probably been posted before, but screw it)

I'll start

I found the unicorn and decided to make it my own. I took it to the Imperial city stable and it started fighting the orc woman there. Since she didn't have the appropriate weaponry and she was essential, the battle raged on. I'm a level 1 (just started this character) so I couldn't kill it. I decided to just go about my business in the Imperial city and when I came out, the Unicorn was still there and it charged me. I managed to escape it but now there's a rogue unicorn some where near the Imperial City

That′s not really crazy. The unicorn attacks you because you went berserk on that orc. Whenever you are near the unicorn with a weapon drawn (fists may count too) it will become hostile to the player.

One thing I think is crazy is when Ongar steals food in the tavern and even though he gets knocked down by the guards he insists on doing it. Maybe he′s one of those who likes that kind of punishment :biggrin:

Crazy? Hm... I guess the craziest thing ive seen is an NPC attacking a Mucrab saying 'I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than.you!'

But everyone has seen that one. Haha :D

Went to Cheydinhal, got through the gate by the chapel, saw four guards ripping Ganredhel apart, they sheathed their weapons, walked off as if nothing had happened, checked her body, the poor woman had a stolen lettuce on her.

I once found http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v90/subrosa_florens/oblivion/Oblivion460.jpg crossing Lake Rumare. A few moments later the crewman http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v90/subrosa_florens/oblivion/Oblivion461.jpg.

Then later I came upon http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v90/subrosa_florens/oblivion/Oblivion464.jpg

Hmm, its not from any quest but its like be creazy.

So, one of beautifully day I tried kill all guards in the Imperial City.
In the place of Arena (at the gate to the arena) I killed one of them.
But he's ragdoll extended to the holes of a gate like a spider weeb or something.
His arms and legs were over 50 meters xD

It was best:
He dont died. He just was unconscious and woke up after a while. Once he did come back in the speed of light to its normal form what looked epic ! :D

Sorry for spelling errors and bugs :ninja:

once i killed all the guards outside the imperial prison then piled the bodies in the way of the gate to the armory, i shut the gate and they flew in all directions, one even flew clean out of the prison compound towards bruma, i tried many times but could never get it to happen again.

Recently, my paladin character Dyan Phor a Cuaz was walking towards Skingrad. Right at the start of the Gold Road (where the hill starts) there was an Imperial on a horse. The game was glitching out, and the horse was floating in the air, frozen in place, but it looked like it should have been galloping.

Dyan walks past the glitchy horse. We've seen this glitch over a dozen times! All a sudden, the guard calmly dismounts and the horse falls over. Dead. The guard started walking towards the IC. :lol: Not the craziest, but certainly a WTF moment.

Doing the Dark Brother quests. That fake murder contract in Chorral. Have to break into the house and explain to the NPC what have to be done. Then this walking leather shoes come in and going to kill him proper. After I done the fake murder and took off with the walking pair of shoes gave chase.

Instead of I going straight to the gate I ran around Charrol with the Argonian chasing my character. Jumping over faces, gates and running around doing laps round Charrol. I turned around and see the NPC's joined in the fry. There were some deaths accord.
That High Elve archer died. The Argonian lives so there goes my pair of leather shoes.

The one thing that sticks out is I was just walking around Chorrol and a guard draws his sword (I thought at me, at first), and screams some battle cry (oh, how I wish I could remember what it is), turns around and starts running so I follow him and he finds the lady with the two dogs and slays one with a single swipe of his sword, sheathes it, and starts having a conversation with the woman about random news. I like to pretend that the guard used to be a soldier in solstheim and had a bad encounter with some werewolves and his PTSD made him have a flashback and he went crazy.

I watched Shameer use his hoe on Tamika while they were sitting next to each other. He would not stop molesting her with the sharp pole.

I found Ida Vlinorman walking around inside Fort Ash. It's kind of a long story but I eventually figured out that she was chased in there by a bear.

Also I saw Sten the Ugly in the Anvil Fighters guild drop dead for no apparent reason (other than maybe terminal ugliness).

Also, I once killed a bandit outside of Fort Strand and she ended up floating in air in a lotus position, looking at the heavens. I took a screenshot and posted before, but not sure where it is now.

I was once swimming in one of those little ponds in the IC collecting all the little flowers and suddenly i notice half of a guard's dead body is sticking through the giant wall bordering the pond. The real question is... have I found the location of the mudcrab more fearsome than me?

I was having some trouble with horse stable hands trying to kill my horse. They'd whip out a weapon, go after it, and usually get pummeled by guards. Turns out, it was the saddlebag mod I was running (coupled with having any food stored within).

It was quite surprising the first time it happened. :blink:

They can be far crazier. http://193.213.26.182/vbftplk/ScreenShot24.jpg
Lex it interrupting the end of the thief guild cinematic to talk about mudcrabs, the irony is that he was 5 seconds from catching the gray fox.

Sometimes the AI can attack random neutral targets if they are attacked or sense an enemy nearby.
Once I was sneaking in a dungeon, suddenly a orc come screaming towards me, I shot him and missed, he run past me into a side corridor and killed a rat.
If you shoot enemies from long range while sneaking they can attack a nearby deer suspecting it’s the shooter.
They also have problems with target priority. Do a ranged attack and they go into combat mode, now if a mudcrab is closer than you they might prefer to attack it, making it possible to shoot them in the back a couple of times.

Spoiler
The Orc you saw was probably http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Adventurer He has a chance of spawning in certain dungeons, and will hack away at whatever's in there.
