disguising and sneaking into cities

[kuntakintay]

so im trying to do it, but its hilariously hard trying to break people out of prison with a robe and a **** staff, is there a file i can edit to give myself a sword?

I would agree that this quest is near impossible for anyone besides the most epic of characters in 1257 - which of course mainly has to do with the RCM features. Would be nice to see it balanced somehow.

I agree, I got seriously frustrated trying to do this quest with a staff.

Editing txt files could get you there but it's quite complicated.  I'll change this for the next release.

 

[Skandinav]

Thanks, othr.

I hated this too. I mean, I know carrying around a sword and shield, plus heavy armour, wouldn't make sense when you're trying to sneak into the city, but it's you vs. 4 heavily-armed guards who can outrun you, despite you having lighter equipment, and since the staff is as useless as a cardboard tube, it's impossibly difficult to win.

Maybe a sword, club, and the like would be better. Anything but that stupid staff.

You could perhaps hide a short sword and a mail shirt beneath the rags as - though it would appear as if from the vanilla quest - no one is saying they are doing a full body search.

None will suspect.

A mace would be handy and you could easily hide it under your robes. Plus it's good against armour.
