Strategy questions with fighting off goblins...

Thanks. I did read that thread, but have yet to find any of those high end weapons.

I finally used Umbra for trapping some souls and put them into some Daedric swords. My favorite is a claymore with frost and absorb health spells of around 30 damage each.:thumb:
I have a Daedric long sword I'm planning to put paralize and absorb health spells into so I can use the Daedric shield against those gobs. The King's Oath sword I got from Mournhold works against them great, but the fire spell hurts me, too.:erg:

There's a fix at RPGPlanet. Since you have Tribunal, you should also look into the Sinking Gondola Fix.

or u can get the dragonbone cuirass with 100% fire resistance... it must be useful for a nord...it's in a:
[SPOILER]lost dwemer ruin which is sealed inside the underwater cave called "mudan grotto"...and mudan grotto's entrance is at south west of ebonheart...and no need to say, it is underwater...[/SPOILER]

Found it. Thanks. Wouldn't have looked way out there for a 'dungeon'. Are there other secret locals on the high seas?

Well, there's the ruined shrine to Boethiah... Sixth House bases practically everywhere... And, uh... The talking mudcrab... A shipwreck carrying a huge shipment of pillows... Ald Daedroth... Not really a maritime thing, but Marandus is worth a look...

Heh.:) Besides the mudcrab and various shipwrecks, are there really hidden places out there either under water or on far out islands not on the paper map? I was wondering even before this thread about if there was a reason to dive to the bottom of the ocean in search of treasure. It's not all that deep, is it? Seems the dungeons take up most of the depth under the ocean floor.

Anyway, back the to first question. I was able to take all the goblins handedly now with the King's Oath sword and of course the Dragonbone Cuirass that Kafein here pointed out to me. Thanks again.:thumb:
To date, I have amassed over 900,000 gold (septums?). That's not including all the money spent on training in Heavy Armor (now to 70, I think) and other skills. I would have over 1 million if I had the patience to play the buy/sell game with the mudcrab for the really high priced items lying on his island. To make it easier to visit that place, I've marked it.:)

I've taken care of the whole (first?) quest involving the goblins that the Shrine's front door man (<small>these charactors' names are impossible to remember</small>) sent me on. Next is to escort some guy down to cleanse an old shrine below the topside shrine.
As a side note, or maybe a complaint, I still have weird stuff going on in game even after installing the latest patch. Namely, computer lock ups and sudden drops to desktop. Oh well, at least it's not as bad as before the patch.

u r welcome:)
i also keep my "mark" on the mudcrab's island... because i usually have to go there only when i'm over-encumbered. so it is the best way:) and i usually do that buy and sell thing...so i sometimes stay there for a holiday of a couple of weeks or so (resting 23 hours and 59 mins a day) :cheeky: (it's a nightmare when i find a new daedric dai-katanai:eww: it costs 12 days of resting) i now have around 2 millions:cool: even after enchanting many items...
