[edit] Early Acquirement

Can you get the Staff of Worms without going through all the other Mage's Guild quets?

I suspect not unless you cheat (e.g. player.addItem 4A24E 1). Generally, they're pretty careful about not making such rewards accessible until they're supposed to be. --TheRealLurlock ^Talk 16:45, 23 February 2008 (EST)

I agree, just look at the Leveled lists. For example, in Morrowind, you could wander off (like I did) and steal Daedric Greaves at lvl 1, also, you could attack (and get killed) by every enemy at lvl 1. The only 'strong' item you can get without being 'supposed to' is Umbra, as far as I can think off right now. But the Mages Guild questline isn't that hard is it? Only the recommendation quests are a bore eventually. - Korunox 17:27, 23 February 2008 (EST)

[edit] Ungrateful Guards

When I reanimate guards, they attack me as if they had never died. Is this just something wrong with me or have others experienced it as well? Should it go on the page? 68.166.64.187 00:08, 4 April 2008 (EDT)

I wasn't aware it worked on guards.--Darth NANAME 22:14, 3 June 2008 (EDT)

[edit] Staff Doesnt Work on Daedra?

I took the staff into an Oblivion World and it seems I cannot use it to reanimate xivilai or any dremora...Anyone else notice this?

It will only work on the following: Imperials, Bretons, Redguards, Nords, High Elves, Wood Elves, Dark Elves, Orcs, Khajiit, Argonians, Dremora, Golden Saints, and Dark Seducers. Why Dremora don't get revived when you use it, I have no idea. --Darth NANAME 22:14, 3 June 2008 (EDT)

Uh Xilivi are creatures...

[edit] SoW Gets Necromancers Amulet

I wanted to go resurrect Caranya and when she died she had the necromancers amulet, but it able to dropped! This obviously must be done before she dissapears. And if you revive her over and over she'll keep coming back with amulets!Does NOT work with Irlov Jarol and the the Helmet associated with him.

[edit] Easy Grand Souls

Go get a black soul gem, duplicate it using scrolls (or arow if you have an unpatched game). Then go find a human, I prefer a dead human, like Agamir because his body never vanishes. After, use the staff of worms to bring him back from the dead. After soultrap, kill, and enjoy!

[edit] Tips moved from main article

I moved this from the main article. It is poorly worded, written in mostly first-person perspective, and difficult to understand. --GuildKnight^Talk2me 22:05, 16 September 2008 (EDT)

• NPCs are extreamly useful they can hold an infinant amount of weight if u give them the right sword or what ever they can steal souls i personaly have 7 slaves to do my biding yes it is a pain to give them life every 30 sec but there just fun to have.
• If ur a pack rat like i a slave NPC is a huge help i duped evrey thing i had and put it on him he held 10,000 didnt fase him.
• Necromancers hear my no more having to jump camp to camp just trying to fill your black soul gems use the staff of worms to give that life less body a soul then at ur wim take it away they will not draw there swords.
