Hi everyone

I'm sure this has been asked, but I couldn't immediately see a prior thread

I've just started playing MW again after a long, long time away. I've got the game nicely modded and looking great, but I want to get those pesky Dark Brotherhood assassins to leave me alone, at least for a bit. I'm role playing a stealthy thief-[censored]-trader, and I'm not going to be strong enough to fight them off yet. Also I recall that the light armour they drop is way over powered, but tough to resist using.

I'm sure there is a mod that delays the appearance of the DB until a more opportune time, but what do you recommend?

Thanks

Just like you I've started again after a long long time away! It's lovely to be back.

I am using this mod to delay the DB attack. It's worked fine so far but I have not got far enough to see if it kicks in as advertised, though I have no reason to doubt that it will work fine:

Perfect - thanks Quintus

I plan on sticking mainly to the Thieves Guild and House Hlaalu. Keeping the DB at bay until I hit top rank in one of those Guilds works for me

Another option for you.
http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=4070 comes with an optional ESP that will delay the attacks until you're named Nerevarine.

And http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=7631 simply delays them until you've finished the main quest.

Whilst it's probable the OP has addressed the problem I thought it'd be worthwhile to post a link to Gluby's rather excellent http://www.mwmythicmods.com/Gluby/Gluby_DarkBrotherhood_Mods.htm for any one else looking for one of these.
