Issue with Mages guild

[Harabec]

In Bravil, the guild recommendation quest wont trigger. She tells you to talk to Varon Vamori, but no quest entry is created. And talking to him does nothing. Anyone else have this, or even better, a solution?

keep talking with kud-ei about the staff, and the quest will start

this, did the quest last night.

Yeah. You have to talk to her about Varon and then the staff.

Thanks, I didn't notice the staff entry.

had this problem too. i guess as a new player i would say oblivions quests tend to just be not straight foward

I am stuck on this currently. I talked with Kud-ei which she tells me to talk with varon and no new quest icons pops up, so I talk with Varon and all he tell me is he never touched her. Nothing for a staff or a dialog about the staff. I have waited days and talked many times with both them to see if that would trigger a new dialog and still nothing.

I hate to have to use dev commands to advance this, is this a bug or do I need to build more rep with the mages guild before coming to Bravil and attempting this here.

Kud-Ei has a separate "dialog" option for the staff, you need do that first before speaking to Varon.

i had this issue omg and it was so simple you have to scroll down on dialogue with kud-ei and itll have a varon vamori dialogue and she brings up the mages staff right after. Its not viewable on the dialogue options without scrolling down lmao

[lovelyrunner]

i accidentally scrolled while talking to her after i viewed this thread lol

[Shaken_Widow]

lmao people getting trapped in dialogues in a game that came after morrowind is always funny to me i can't help but chuckle lmao.

in this game the key is to exhaust any and all options related to your current task in conversations.

sometimes even, you can go back to certain quest givers and ask for more help, (the game doesn't tell you this,) and they will assist you by giving you items that will help you finish the quest.

and then there's other times where the quest giver specifically says NOT to mention something to someone, and when you get to the point to talking to that someone you need to actually remember NOT to select that dialogue option otherwise the quest will go awry.

this is a real RPG lmao, you have choices to make and consequences for the actions you take, not like skyrim where it continuously tells you what to do and holds your hand lol.
