I'm a member of the Thieves guild and Fighters guild. On my quest to retrieve the code book from Sottilde, i've talked her up to a 100/100 (like scale or whatever it is) and she still won't give me the damn book. She just says, you have to decide where your loyalties lie. Does she mean I need to quit the thieves guild before she'll give me the book?
Thanks in advance - Have Fun:joke:

Maybe you can temporarliy expelled from the thieve's guild for a bit, then try it.
You can do this by attacking/stealing/killing or something else a thief.
Then make amends.
I dunno much about fighter's guild quests though, sorry.

my brother had this problem....
you can edit her so that she sells books, and just buy the codebook off of her (it's only 1 gold)
if you don't know how to do that, pm me.

I'm playing the xbox version so no editing allowed.

I hear it's pretty easy to steal it from her; no idea if it's true or not, but it's worth a shot (especially give that you're a thief...)

or if your a bastar-, er, fighter you can taunt her into attacking you and KILL THEM ALL!!!
DIE, SUGAR LIPS, BABY, DIE!

How do you steal from people on the xbox version? Haven't quite figured that part out yet? When I sneak up on someone, should I take off my boots. With my boots on, when I sneak around I still make a little thud noise every step. I tried killing her but everyone in the room attacks me and then I die and dieing is bad and pisses me off.
Thanks for your help all. . .
Have fun

1) Take off your boots (the heavier your boots, the less sneaky you can be)
2) Run up behind her so that when she gives her "Hello, there!" speech she'll be facing away from the door. (You may also need to do this to the nearby Bosmer, so he faces away from her)
3) When she's done speaking, walk around behind her, hold down sneak, "action" her, and take the code book. Make sure to hold down the sneak button the entire time, though.
Note: Even at 100% sneak, with all stats at either mid-90's or 100, and with a 100% chameleon, I still got caught sometimes. Be sure to save 1st. At last resort, you can indeed kill her... but don't just hack at her. Taunt her or use "Frenzy Humanoid" to make her attack you; then noone should join in.

Yeah, I picked her pocket to get the book from her, but I was already quite high level by then, so my sneak skill was very good. You might also see if you can get some chameleon spells/scrolls/potions/what have you to also help you out while you're trying to pick her pocket.
To pick her pocket, basically you need to be in sneak mode, then "use" her, using whatever button you would normally use to initiate conversation (I dunno what that is on the X-Box..).
If your skills are high enough, you should be able to do it without being noticed. If not, then they'll all attack you anyway. ;)

How about that Shadow potion? Does that work well mixed with the chameleon or invisibility scroll?
