The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

by Shawn @ 10:14 am · filed under Games

Thank God for this game because it is an utter time waster and I've had to lay around doing nothing the last few days. I don't really like RPG games, but I got it for my Xbox 360 because it was the highest rated game for it, and there really wasn't any games I was overly interested in.

But here's a question for anyone who's been playing it... Is there any merchant with more than 1,200 gold available to buy stuff? I have about 100,000 gp worth of Deadric weapons and armor (like a crap load of 5,000 gp Deadric Warhammers, Claymores, etc.), but I don't want to sell them because I can only get 1,200 gp for them since that's all the money the merchant has.

    1200 is the max from any merchant in the normal game. If you get the Wizards Tower download from XBox Live, it comes with a merchant who sells up to 2000 gp ;)

    Well that’s gay… but at least now I know and I can sell all this crap instead of hoarding it. :)

    What’s the point of having a value of 5000+ gp on something if you can’t sell anything for more than 1,200? Dumb. :)

    Oblivion is perhaps the best RPG ever! Although the gold situation is quite stupid. No matter I completed the game at level 7 so its not all bad…

    Once your mercantile skill is high enough, you can “invest” in shops to increse the gold they have by 500.
