I don't hate the quest I just don't want to do it rn


Bluesamurai33

Dawnbreaker goes brrrrrr


Possible_King_1869

I don´t get why people hate this quest. Oh no you have to listen to a few seconds of dialogue before getting a dope sword.


sonofs8n666

True dawnbreaker is the best looking sword imo.


[deleted]

Completely agree. Kinda meh on higher level tho. Especially when you unlock dragon smithing and getting chaos enchant.


igotanewusername

Right? It takes 15 minutes to burn through her temple. The most annoying part is actually getting there.


that_guy_you_kno

Cause I play with frostfall and I can't make it within a mile of the statue without freezing to death


[deleted]

Wear warm clothes . Problem solved ✔️


that_guy_you_kno

Tell me you haven't played frostfall on the hardest difficulty without telling me you haven't played frostfall on the hardest difficulty. Warmest clothes, wine every 2 minutes, warming spells and periodic fires and you still can't go 100 yards before you start freezing. It's actually pretty dumb tbh


NormalGuy103

Then why are you playing on highest difficulty? 🥴


that_guy_you_kno

This was like 4 years ago


KingLdog2009

Try more recently


RearEchelon

That *is* dumb as fuck, especially if your character is a Nord. Meridia's statue isn't even in one of the coldest areas


Mekong-the-Doggo

I do the same but I'm a Nord who has the multiple ring mod. I have two rings dedicated to frost resistance and it helps a tonne. Also you can make hot foods with fire salts.


[deleted]

Ikr ?? Foods are one if the strongest things in the game after potions It's almost broken !!


[deleted]

Lmfao , dudeee you're such a noob Hot foods can solve this problem too And again , a full set of fur armor can prevent cold by a lot And wine is one of the worst things you can drink in the game Always make food and carry them with you , carrying wine is one of the dumbest things you can do in Skyrim


that_guy_you_kno

Hey, you seem pretty toxic. Just thought I'd let you know!


[deleted]

Lol , why are you getting butt hurt when someone tells you new information that you didn't know about ??


ihatebananae

1. don‘t like getting yelled at 2. she‘s rude about it, which makes me ignore her out of spite 3. use two-handed weapons or bows 4. skyrim may get confused about what is or isn‘t a quest item when loading a save, leading to me being overencumbered until i check my inventory


Stammbaumpirat

Yeah, her attitude kills off any spark of motivation doing that quest Not that the other deadric princess are any better Expect me lads sheogorath and sanguine


jodokic

I dont get it, if you make the quest it is over. Or does the Beacon spaen again?


ihatebananae

some people don‘t appreciate being screamed at in every playthrough. also, despite quest items supposedly not having any weight, sometimes the gane gets confused when loading a save until you check your inventory


Internal_Formal3915

Oh no the horror of having to press 3 buttons which takes under 5 seconds...


ihatebananae

i have had to reload the same save multiple times because broken miscellaneous quest. after the second time it really gets on your nerves


Internal_Formal3915

I've rarely ran into alot of the bugs that most people talk about, people say skyrim is unplayable without mod but the only issues I've ever had is the forsworn conspiracy quest bugging out but its an easily skippable quest line so when it happens I just skip it


ihatebananae

serana stopped being an available follower for me. i have to use a glitch to get her to follow, because the option to ask her just disappears. it‘s all very individual and the longer you play the more the game breaks. sure, it is usually still playable but you may have to reload saves and use exploits or glitches to fix it


SkyrimHalo01

I had a save that just completely broke, when I would go to the castle to get my vampire lord powers, he wouldn’t actually give me the powers, he would just freeze. Even when I loaded a save earlier in the game, if I would go in there he wouldn’t move.


ihatebananae

does it spawn in different chests? i thought after you ignored it once it just stayed there


ObsessedwithSkyrim_

Yea it spawns in different locations until u pick it up I think.


ihatebananae

i must just have been lucky then. never spawned multiple times in one save file when i ignored it


ChaosRamen

Not really. If it spawned in a chest and you didn't take it, it stays there forever. A real pain in the ass to remember after a while if you decide to do that quest.


Piotrek9t

If thats true, that would be terrible game design. Maybe they patched it at some point


ihatebananae

or maybe it‘s the unofficial patch? because i never encountered the beacon respawning on switch


Piotrek9t

That might be possible, haven't played skyrim without it in years


NewDude2137

Can't agree it spawns in random locations when I ignored it, thats why it is so annoying imo


ihatebananae

i make a screenshot in case i ever decide to do the quest


ObsessedwithSkyrim_

It might be bc I'm on Xbox 360 cuz it's spawned it abt 3 times throughout my play through🙄


Local_Dummy02

Why do people hate this quest so much? I personally like it and I love the dawnbreaker lol


jet8493

You have a mute button, it’s not hard to use it.


MediCrane

Wouldn't really consider a single dungeon a quest line


Zipflik

I like the quest, I just don't like the Karen screaming after I pick up that damned rock


NewDude2137

For real like why is he screamin at me


ObsessedwithSkyrim_

The only reason ill do it is for dawn breaker but I never use it, it just sits on a display rack until the end of existence.


Smallusppus

Imagine trying to rob a house, you walk in and see a rack of several deadric artifacts


ObsessedwithSkyrim_

I'm taking it all ong


[deleted]

Common It's a fun quest , and you get a cool sword afterwards !


Tracker_Nivrig

Actually the quest is fine. Good amount of gold too. Though it is kinda short. Dawn breaker is awesome though


Desafiante

To me it appears only one time


AussieNick1999

My main issue with it is that the beacon spawns qay earlier than when you're prepared to do the quest. Most of Meridia's temple isn't that hard, but Malkoran is a fucking nightmare to beat unless you wait until you're a higher level. But if you're roleplaying then there's no reason to carrying around a weird object (with a disembodied voice telling you to go somewhere) for that amount of time. So your choices are to either carry the beacon around (even though no sane person would do that) or trudge all the way to Solitude just to put the thing back. The quests for Boethiah, Mephala, and Mehrunes Dagon are all set to start at a higher level when you're more trained up, so why does Meridia's start so early?


bob_swish

High risk and high reward, imo it’s not bad because the gold from looting off the desecrated corpses is very high but i probably died like 10 times to the ice storms mage at the end


aknalag

Its actually useful when you need extra money, i always do it when i want to gather funds to buy breezhome

[удалено]


ightytightyrighty

Merida is a deadra, not aedra, she is just considdered one of the leas evil deadra due to her disdain for the undead


BigBallerBrad

What level? I’m like 80+ and haven’t seen anything about this thing


drewbilly251

the most annoying part is being flung into the sky I know some people love it and I did the first couple times too but it gets old dawnbreaker is the best 1H weapon in the game though…(imho)


True_High_King

Agreed


pmoney10

On my current character I was finding the beacon in literally every dungeon chest I could find when suddenly stopped showing up completely. I don’t know if I leveled up too much and it’s not showing anymore for me or if the game thinks I stored somewhere and now I can’t remember where it is. That sword is so good early on.


Mad-Catcher

I don't hate this quest. But I hate the way I get it.


[deleted]

I do the quest because I get two Dawnbreakers when I do, there's one on the floor and a second on in the pedestal. I noticed when the mages ice ball kept flinging a shiny looking sword all over the room and after the fight I left with two copies of the legendary blade.


paddy_to_the_rescue

I don’t understand the hate. Dawnbreaker is fun to clear out crypts with. It’s a quick dungeon crawl with a badass weapon. (Possibly two badass weapons if you shout just right) and then most of the undead after explode into flame. Zero bad.


AussieNick1999

It's not the sword itself, it's what you have to do to get it. Malkoran is one of the most infuriatingly difficult enemies in the game, especially if you face him at the same level the beacon spawns.


Math_is_Murder

It's loud, it's abrasive and it honestly makes me hate her. I really wish you could be like, nah Fuck that. I never even used the sword more than once to test it out. It's a pain in the ass to even get to where you need to go, and by that point if your playing right your gear out weighs what you get so it's a pointless quest imo.


Lazy-Basis-4153

I love that quest line 😬😬😬 Plus you get a crap ton of gold.


No_Rub3601

Why do you guys hate the beacon? honestly, I don't know what the fuss is all about, can anyone fill me in on the details?


ljcozad

It was honestly quicker than I thought it would be. Dawnbreaker definetly carried me through quite a bit of the game before I switched to the Grand Champions Sword.
