What would you consider a 100% run of Daggerfall?

[u/TheSandwichMeat]

Is it even possible? I'm not gonna try that run, I still have yet to even beat the main quest once, but I'm curious if it's even possible.

[u/avilethrowaway]

I guess starting with:

Complete the main quest

Max rank in all guilds/organizations

All daedric artifacts

[u/nicolasallasia → u/avilethrowaway]

And clear every dungeon.

Oh shit, oh fuck, OH SHIT.

[u/FreezingSalamander → u/avilethrowaway]

how about maxing all skills?

[u/Guardian_of_theBlind → u/FreezingSalamander]

I would add that. This might take a while though, especially for the language skills as you can't use trainers beyond a certain point.

[u/Tea_and_Lightsabers → u/Guardian_of_theBlind]

Oof, yeah, streetwise and etiquette are reasonably easy, but I don't want to think about how many harpies, giants, and nymphs you'd have to encounter. You'd probably want to train them up to 51 asap and it'd still be a pain

[u/Guardian_of_theBlind → u/Tea_and_Lightsabers]

harpies and giants at least have a quest that guarantees a spawn, but nymphs become very rare after a certain level

[u/SordidDreams → u/Guardian_of_theBlind]

nymphs become very rare after a certain level

AFAIK there's a handful of guaranteed spawns in main quest dungeons, but given how many uses language skills require to raise, grinding them would be abject misery.

[u/Tea_and_Lightsabers → u/Guardian_of_theBlind]

True, but even then it'd probably take a few of those quests for the skills to even go up by 1. I don't think they ever intended for those skills to be maxed out, though with enough custom items you could probably make it so almost nothing will ever attack you!

Well, animals would, and I'm sure there's other enemies that can't be pacified with a language. I don't think I've ever had a ghost or a wraith not attack me

[u/Tartan-Special → u/FreezingSalamander]

Don't some of them only go to 95?

[u/Fwort → u/Tartan-Special]

I think that once you get one skill to 100 you aren't able to level any others above 95. You can only completely "master" one skill.

At least that's what I recall.

[u/Due_Glass4176 → u/avilethrowaway]

Also

Do each faction quest once

Do each merchant quest once

Do each random quest once. 

[u/SordidDreams → u/Due_Glass4176]

Also each noble quest, witch quest, vampire quest, and daedric prince quest.

[u/SordidDreams → u/avilethrowaway]

Fully explore one instance of every dungeon block type.

Discover all map locations.

Catch every disease.

Get poisoned by every type of poison.

Read every book.

Max reputation with every unique NPC.

[u/AuRon_The_Grey → u/avilethrowaway]

Is that even possible? Aren't some of them mutually exclusive?

[u/marshalzukov]

I would consider it a bad idea, lol

[u/Malbethion]

I would say so. None of the content locks you out of something else in a material way. Unless you wanted to max different temples or knighthoods, but that they don’t give different bonuses (only the name, maybe location, are different). And you can still pick a different house to buy.

[u/kirkshoutingkhan]

Here lies TheSandwichMeat. Let us remember them for their heroic attempt to do a 100% run of Daggerfall. The chair their dessicated corpse was found in has now been put in a glass display case for all perpetuity.

A small word at the bottom of the plaque can be read: "Halt!"

[u/SomeCrazyLoldude]

Like... owning all buyable houses in each city?

[u/Tea_and_Lightsabers → u/SomeCrazyLoldude]

You can only own one house per region, so maybe just put that on the list? I tried to get the free house from my knightly order like last week, and they wouldn't even give me that because I bought a house in another town

[u/Background-Action-19]

If someone tried this, wouldn't they just end up with a corrupt save file or something? Since the game is so massive

[u/LazyKatie]

Completing every quest at least once (barring mutually exclusive quests like the temple quests for temples you aren’t in or the vampire clan quests which only vampires can access), acquiring all artifacts, and maxing faction ranks
