• How did you initially get to Abah’s Landing?

At first for a while I was unsure, but after some thought it occurred to me to check an Outlaw’s Refuge, and off I went from there.

• If you got the quest from the Collections UI, was it easy to find?

Didn’t even realize this was an option.

• How did you find the pacing of the Thieves Guild storyline?

I find myself doing it increments as I don’t want to blow through all the content. But so far, it seems pretty straight forward to me and progressing nicely.

• How much time did you spend earning Thieves Guild reputation in between questing?

I enjoy the side quests, so I assume they are adding to my guild rep. I plan on doing those each day.

• Were the additions of hiding spots and trespassing understood while completing Thieves Guild quests? Did they make sense?

Quest: Cleaning House area – the hiding spots did not have the yellowish glow around them like in the first quest. If I got pinched, wouldn’t have known they were there as they blend in with the background very well. Don’t know if that is intentional.

• Do you have any general feedback for these mechanics?

Maybe some additional spots to hide other than baskets just for variety. Otherwise, I like the addition.

• If you received a bounty while trespassing, did it make sense why you received it?
Yep, got pinched and it was all very clear.

• Did you understand what to do once you entered an area you were trespassing into?
Yep, no problems at all.

• What did you think of the new enemies while performing a heist (the clairvoyant and the lookout enemies)?
Definitely adds a degree of difficulty to it. Heists would be too plain without them.

• Did you participate in any other criminal activity? If so, what did you do, and how did you like it?
Under the Thumb pick-pocketing quests. Had a blast with those. It seems you may have improved the drop rate of pick-pocketed items. It did seem that I got double credit for pick-pocketing single items. Also, as already noted, I’m not a fan of having to find a certain type of item. RNG = not fun. However, find 3 of these types or 10 of anything doesn’t bother me if the outcome is the same.

• Were you able to locate the Thieves Den in Abah’s Landing?
Yep, clearly marked on the map.

• Did you find and/or complete the Cutpurse Above achievement, which awards the Master Thief title?
Had no idea how to initiate those hit list quests. Just learned of it through reading the forum, but nothing in game prompted me to read a random list laying on a table that is not even glowing. It would also be nice if you could take the hit list with you, like the list for the items in Orsinium’s museum. Where to place these items was not clear either.

• Did you receive the edict item?
I have two of them. As a medium Night Silence & Nightshade set wearing Bosmer…. She rarely gets pinched. So I haven’t had a need for such an item. However, I appreciate having it, and especially will on other characters not so sneaky (such as a plate wearing tank).

• If so, did you use it?
N/A

• Did you think it was fun and worthwhile?
“It” as the DLC or the edict item? I think the DLC is excellent. But it just so happens my main has been a wood-elf Stamina NB in all medium armor since day one. So this, and DB DLC, are perfect for her. So I might be a little bias. Regardless, I am loving this DLC. Though I do worry about its shelf life. I’m afraid it will run its course and become old news quickly.

• Do you have any other general feedback?

With Zeira and Velsa’s reunion after “Cleaning House”, Velsa approached and stood on top of a lantern during their conversation.

The sound that signifies that you are no longer trespassing is the same sound when you’ve gotten pinched and racked up a bounty. I’d suggest a different sound as it does cause some alarm.

The Long Game – while in disguise, and not being seen, I was routinely put in and out of combat. Only for a moment each time.

I think the heist time limits are a little tight… but then again, I really don’t like timed activities in the first place. I wouldn’t suggest adding much time to those if it was a consideration. Just a little tight.

Blueish green dragon frog (as seen in the warehouse district I believe) must go in the crown store.

A Faded Flower quest… it appears you have to go back through all the Iron Wheel and traps to get back to Velsa’s garden. We already did this… shouldn’t have to go through all that again. Quest tracker only focuses on Velsa’s location, not any manner to get to her.

The on screen prompt to press “E” to disarm a trap… a little too close to the trap for my comfort. I’d prefer a little extra range to disarming them. Just a little. Plus, traps no long glow yellow while in stealth. Don’t know if that was intended.

Reaper’s March treasure map out of a Thieves Treasure Trove… that’s a level 45 zone for my VR16 character… not worth the time. Might want to fine tune the drops from those troves. That being said, after writing this, I just popped a purple VR15 Night Mother ring out of a trove. Was excited until I saw it did not have the same Night Mother set bonus as the crafted set...

A faded Flower: Upon leaving the area via the Warehouse District doors, the quest tracker was instructing me to go back into the Warehouse Distract when the half-naked Nord is in the market outside the town next to the wayshrine.

Foot prints on “Flawless Plan” are spaced out way too far apart. Seems to just stop at one point.

Interacting with troves, chests, doors, etc. pulls out of stealth. Particularly bad in trespass areas. Seeing how this has been the case since launch, I am unsure if this is something you are able to change. If so, I suggest making it so players stay in stealth while interacting with objects.

No RNG please.

“Flawless Plan” – Unsure if one is able to complete the quest and have to stop there, or in mid-quest. But I have reached the Pillars of Tu’Wacca and (on both sides of the door) I cannot interact with the left Relief Wheels on either side.
