Favorite Side Quest

Post by RedDeadFred »

I`m wondering what everyone`s favorite side quest is so far. Exclude guild quests and Daedric quests.
Mine would have to be Evil in Waiting. Mainly because I just stumbled upon it while exploring and found out that I was going to get to take out a Dragon Priest.

Also, I apologize if this thread has been done before. i searched: favorite side quest, and for some reason it told me that the search ignored the words favorite and quest...

He said to exclude daedric quests, guys.

I loved the quest where you had to

, because of the battle at the end. That was a real tough scrape.

Not a "Quest" but the Archery training sessions with Angi was the most interesting piece of immersion into the game. Simple and elegant.

I kind of consider Daedric quests to be kind of be like their own faction of quests. You get an achievement for doing them all just like any other guild.

The funniest where either:

The one with the greedy dunmer woman in the ancient tomb.(She didn't see THIS coming ;-).)
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Angarvunde_%28quest%29
or
The quest where you need to get the four books from this perverted necromancer on the island.

Even though many side quest are standard go there, kill, get x , explore....
there are enough with a nice little story.

Just did the Forsworn Conspiracy and No One Escapes Cidhna Mine. I must say I loved those quests a lot. Now I am looking forward to Blood on the Ice.
In between the lines there's a lot of obscurity.
I'm not inclined to resign to maturity.
If it's alright, then you're all wrong.

No One Escaped Cidhna Mine is a very nice quest...I also like (for some reason) this nordic ruin quest. I just enjoy having to search for things, kill the big meanie, and get my reward...like most quests actually, but this ones nicer...
Spoiler:
I like looking for skulls, maybe... :Twisted Evil:

I thoroughly enjoy killing every single Thalmor in that fort, every time.
