Expansion paks

Post by dem »

I have payed the game many times but rarely play bloodmoon or tribunal. Decided to do that this game. I completed morrowind at level 12 or 13. Anyone know the recommended level for the expansion games? I get different levels from the web. Also boodmoon is easier than tribunal right? or should I play tribunal first and then bloodmoon?

I assume you mean you can complete the Vvardenfell main quest at level 12/13? However, the expansions are more difficult and whilst it does depend on your character Tribunal should be attempted at level 20+ and Bloodmoon at level 25+ (with a higher level required for the end of the main quest there).

There are some tough characters in both expansions.

Yes I would also recommend being 25+ to do either of the expansions. Like Rohugh says there are plenty of tough, fast enemies to fight in both bloodmoon and tribunal

Well Rohugh and yagelazy ninja'd me as I finished my Psychology assignment (I have a nasty habit of leaving tabs open and then coming back hours later to reply).

Anyhow, what they're saying is pretty much spot on, although I'd put more emphasis on it depends on your character. Although the 15-25 range is a pretty good starting point. A good way I find to test this, is to travel to Mounrhold and head on down to the sewers, where you'll find some nasty goblins.

See how you fare against them, as a level two I could take on a few with the aid of a companion, but I could feel them overpowering me, and it was only through the use of some tricky magic, tactics and so on that I survived (before you ask what a level two was doing there, I was testing the Great House Indoril Mod and decided that I might see how I fared on the Tribunal Mainquest straight away :lol:).

Also, just a note, the Tribunal Mainquest works much better if you've completed the Morrowind one, although seeing as you have, that's a somewhat superfluous statement.

Remembers me when I installed tribunal for the first time.

I was wandering around the Bazaar and I stumbled upon that theatre troupe needing some help.

Aced the line restitution, but got roflstomped by that dude with his daedric wakizachi.

Morale : Level 20 is a great time to start the expansions.

The exact same happened to me, sort of. I was level two and begun the same quest, before I realised I was way to0 underpowered for it. However, rather than load a 30min old save, I decided to try my hand at winning, utilising some sly tactics and a lot of destruction magicka. Pity the ordinators don't help out like in Oblivion :lol:

Edit: typo

Thanks everyone. I am going thru exquisite health potions like they are water. I've died a couple of times too. I am a little harder than normal.

Edit: So I was level 16 when I did the hunt and wimped out and went on easy to finish it. too tough for me at +50.
