Which is the WORST Daedric quest in your opinion? : V

» Fri Mar 22, 2013 8:07 pm

Ok i will admit it that i made this quest from frustration because i hate the Vaermina's quest. The skull of corruption svcks although Erandur is one of my favorite followers. The worst is, however, that in my PC this quest is problematic.Its the only quest were the game crashes randomly or when i try to save it.This means that i was forced to play the same parts of this quest again and again. Especially the scene with Vaermina's followers discussing what to do(i must have seen that scene about a dozen of times).So whats your opinion about the most worst/boring/stupid Daedric quest?

No daedra quest ever glitched for me. but i hate Pyrite quest the most.

The Clavicus Vile quest was boring and uninspired. Of course I don't want this crappy axe!

That was my second choice, but it subsequently rewards you with my favorite artifact in Skyrim.

I don't use shields so i dunno. Also i agree with you on the Clavicus one. it was real boring without a useful reward.

Meridia's quest, because I hate finding that stupid beacon at level 1 but then I don't want to leave it behind because I will forget where it was.
The dungeon wasn't really anything either, and the whole thing was uninspired. I don't even remember what the reward was.

Meridia, Clavicus Vile, and Mephala all have pretty weak quests. Peryite's is uninspired as well, but the reward is awesome. Can't forget Mehrunes Dagon's, either.

Namira's quest.

Spoiler

Eating people? And be rewarded for it? How on earth did they come up with that idea? Ok if you play a really messed up character, or possibly a Bosmer, but hey... Even the Daedric quests that simply demands an evil acts (like Boethiah's for example) seems more ok - I can see someone being greedy or corrputed enough to go through with that, but to actually eat another human being? It's possible I have my cultural glasses on now, but the only circumstance I can see a "normal" (whatever that means) person do that, is if the alternative is starvation to death, or if the alternative is that someone will kill/torture you. Which isn't the case in this quest, if I got it right (now, I haven't been able to bring myself to go through with it).

At the very least there could be a reward for saying no. Like in Vaermina's quest -

Spoiler

if you say no to Vaermina and let the Skull of Corruption be destroyed, then you can have Erandur as your follower.

Or in Hircine's quest,

Spoiler

where you can choose not to kill Sinding - now HIrcine just thinks that's fun and will reward you anyway, but you can at least choose two different paths, with two different rewards.

Same with Azura's quest -

Spoiler

if you say no to Azura, you'll still get a Star, just another version (and you'll miss a great follower).

One of my Werewolf characters did Namira's quest to get the ring. She eats people while running around as a beast, so why not while in her normal form too?

At the very least there could be a reward for saying no.
Or in Hircine's quest,

Spoiler

where you can choose not to kill Sinding - now HIrcine just thinks that's fun and will reward you anyway, but you can at least choose two different paths, with two different rewards.

You can also get both. I dunno if its a glitch or intended but to me it makes sense to be able to get both, given Hircine's enjoyment of you (potentially) turning the chase inside out. To geth both btw;

Spoiler

Agree to help Sinding kill the hunters, once thats done head out to talk to Hircine and you'll get the Ring. Head back and slay Sinding then and rip the flesh from his body and Hircine will show up beside you to award the Hide.

I thought it was a great quest, precisely for the reasons you listed: it's one of very few quests that rewards you for being a messed up person disregarding any social or moral norms. It lets your character act up on their twisted, shameful secret desires. Sure, these desires are a major mental disorder and I can't imagine any normal person taking part in that creepy meeting, but who said that our characters have to be completely sane? Alternatively, if you're a werewolf, it may not look so evil after all.

If you don't like what you're asked to do, you can turn around and leave. If you believe that it's evil, inhuman, dangerous and criminal, you can kill everyone involved. It's your choice.

What I find interesting is how many people go through with this quest simply because they want the reward. I never could. Only with one character, and only because it was a cultural thing for her and she was a psychopath to boot. The rest cringed at the very thought of doing what was asked of them.

I don't really have one that I think is the worst, but I do have one that's made me the maddest, Meridias.
You get to the end, and suddenly, shadow Skeletons, and a wizard who has no business hitting me that hard. And when you DO down him, his ghost attacks you, and is just as powerful.
