Has somebody already mentioned that when you first go into a dungeon, leave marker on your map so you'll be able to find your way out easily?

Yeah, but the way it gets worded it sounds like there's confusion over whether it's ok to put the anchor inside the dungeon entrance. I've seen many warnings about that causing problems so I leave them outside the entrance before I walk in.

I'm curious about buying spells from the mages guild. I've been hanging out in the guild in Pothago and I couldn't find anybody to sell me the spells needed for quests -- things like Open and Sleep. I can use the spellmaker, but obviously that's not going to work. Do I just need to check out a guild in a bigger city?

I'm new to the game myself but I've found that indeed different mage guilds in various towns / cities will have a vastly different spell selection for sale. I'm not sure yet if the amount of selection is tied to the town size though.

Quick question here Vets: Got a fighters guild quest telling me to go Castle...something in Western Daggerfall to kill a werewolf/wereboar inside. Well, I have. About a dozen of them. :blink:

I keep exploring and the place is bloody enormous, and I keep finding more and more were-creatures. I havent got a quest update telling me I've killed it, so am I meant to just to try to go back to the quest-giver or is there a 'boss' werewolf thats the thing I'm meant to kill?

You should get a message saying "The Werewolf is dead" or similar wording when you get the right one. But if you are in a dungeon infested with the things, it could take a while if you don't use the cheat to warp you through the quest locations. :banghead:

Someone in this set of threads said that you don;t need to buy a horse, just a cart, as a horse comes with it. While it's true a horse does come with the cart, when you use the cart you do not travel as fast as riding a horse alone. it's like the game gives you a pack horse with the cart, but a thoroughbred for the horse alone. Itwouldexplain the difference in price too,with a cart a couple hundred and a horse 1500+!!
