Arrows

Does the arrows table need to be present on the NPC page if they're already listed on the appropriate items page? It already states what Melliwin sells on her character sheet. Legoless 19:44, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Agreed - they're gone. The page already links to the Items list, so having it here was unnecessary. rpeh •T•C•E• 21:32, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

She has a stolen iron bow in her inventory

I am 99.9% sure I did not sell it to her and am 100% sure of what I am seeing. This isn't pickpocketing, it is for sale. Any explanations?

Edit: Alright, what is weirder is I zoned out, came back (72 hours+) and her inventory is different (different arrows) yet the iron bow with the stolen tag is still there. Also, I reloaded an earlier save and I never had a stolen iron bow in my inventory. The only things I've done since the last time I bought arrows from her were do the "illegal cargo" quest, bring back all the items from the ship into the bottom level of the black flag, have my battlehorn man-at-arms follow me, the pirates returned from pillaging, and I've duped her arrows using the scroll glitch.

Edit #2: Why did someone delete my post? I had to undo it in history. Did i violate some rule? dtm 18:30, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

So how does your post about your one-off problem attempt to improve this topic page? Would you put something like: Occasionally a mysterious stolen item appears in her inventory?

Most likely, you forgot about selling her something. --Brf 18:37, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

I've posted plenty of questions in the "talk" section of a page. Not once was I told questions that don't help improve the page do not belong here. I just bought the thieves den and have never used any of them as a fence. I even reloaded an earlier save, if you bothered to read, to check that I had never stolen an iron bow, which I was already 99.9% sure of anyway. My one-off problem puzzles me as I don't have mods that should mess up the game so perhaps something in her coding causes her to occasionally sell goods that look stolen cause she's a pirate? I also found out her "chest" for her inventory works in a way similar to dungeon chests, not merchant chests. Not sure if this is related. dtm 19:04, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Given her low responsibility, she probably picked up a bow that wasn't hers. Legoless 19:14, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Wow thank you Legoless. This was really bugging me. There is an irow bow (hard to see cause it's dark) on the table near here with 3 arrows. I loaded up a previous save to see its supposed to be there and yeah its supposed to be there. Its gone in my most recent save and I have no idea what would compel her to take it. She already has a steel bow to practice shooting right? Is she scripted to take the iron bow? Or perhaps the steel bow broke and she needed the iron one? Yet, if that were true, it wouldn't be in her inventory for sale, as her steel bow she is supposed to use isn't right? I wonder if any of this is related to Kovan Kren attacking her. I'm also paranoid about putting leaving stuff out in the open, or even in chests in the cove, if they actually go around stealing stuff. dtm 11:54, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Inventory Reset

Occasionally Melliwin restocks. What she carries seems to be somewhat based on your level, but also a little randomized. Does anyone know if there's any particular rhyme or reason to what she will carry and when? Also, how long does it take her inventory to reset? — Unsigned comment by 71.229.4.25 (talk) at 21:45 on April 26, 2011

The levelled merchandise she offers has no pattern other than what level your character is. She also sells some arrows unique to the DLC. I believe merchants reset if you haven't been there for an in-game week. Legoless 21:05, 28 April 2011 (UTC)
