Vampire character question

Post » Sun Jun 06, 2010 4:43 am

Is there a spell that I can put on a item that makes it so I won't get hurt by fire by 100% or near it? I like my vampire character but that would be kool if there is a spell like that so I wouldn't have to worry, so is there? Where would I buy it and does it have to be a scroll or spell to add it to a item>???
I have the 360 GOTY version
Thank you

You can collect some resist fire enchantments or go to the Arcane University to make them yourself, spells as well if you′re Dunmer. Also if you′re into alchemy you can make potions to protect you. All this combined will get you close to, at or above 100% resist fire :)

The http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Flame_Ring#Flame_Ring alone provides 100% resist fire, but I am not sure what level it starts to appear. Also it is random loot so it can be tough to acquire, but would definitely pay off (you could always use the blind priest/monk/whatever they're called trick )

what tricks?

You may or may not be familiar with the http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Temple_of_the_Ancestor_Moths_(place) At the end of the temple catacombs there is a blind moth priest who seems to be a kind of generic npc like the other inhabitants. However, he is loosely involved in a particular quest for a major questline (I know this is the spoiler section don't want to spoil it if you haven't done it yet) and therefore always respawns with a high level piece of enchanted jewelry. I do not know if he can have the flame ring at level 4 (when he starts to carry enchanted jewelry) but I know I have gotten it from him at higher levels. He, or rather his cell, respawns every 72 hours, and he is the only member of the cell which itself is rather small. All you have to do is make it through the catacombs, and save before you enter his cell. Then you go in, kill him, and see what jewelry he has. If you don't like it you just reload your save, enter the cell, and kill him and he will have a different piece of jewelry. You can do this unlimited times because he respawns every 72 hours, and you can just wait 72 hours right outside the door every time.

so should I go and do this now I mean when I am not doing the main quest so he respawns every 72 hours?

I think what TheNord was meaning is that if you save before you go in to the room, then you can just keep reloading saves and killing him until he has the ring you want - and I guess you could do that now.

on a related note, I have various bits of resist magic armour now and I am wondering if this will resist fire too - I'll check later and let you know. I'm a vampire too and need the protection as well!

kool let me know

ya that makes sense but im only level 3 but been everywhere in that cave yet don't see a blind priest in any cell type area so idk which is the one that would happen, guess i will go back on level 4 and see which one holds a enchanted item than restart and gain some more levels than go back there

I tried it with the resist magicka and it worked - I had 110 resist magicka (breton, Saviours Hide, a two self-enchanted pieces (you can find others in the game), and it worked a treat!!!

Sun damage does not count as fire damage.

Yeah, sorry LunarWolf, I meant resist magicka protects from Fire Damage (e.g. fire balls). Feeding is the only thing that increases resistance to damage from the sun. As far as I'm aware....
