OMG the Auger of the Obscure.

DamenAJ · June 2018

The Augur was hilarious, if I do the quests again I might write down all his quotes. Some of my favorites:

You're doing that thing where water slips out of your skin, aren't you? Sweating, eh? Ugh. And you people think I'm weird!

Another breach near that tree, I think. Fun fact—all deciduous trees love accordion music. Just more proof that all trees are... idiots.

Snow! Can we make a snow-thing? Snow-peasant? Whatever? You know, if you make it right, it develops a sad little soul! 'Course it melts later. Bit of a shame, that. But we can name it and everything!

More than a few snakes around this beach, mate. Ugh. Surly little beasts ... always wiggling along with no arms or legs. I don't have arms or legs either but you don't see me biting people.

Wish we got to keep him after the quest line.

We do as a furnishing and interacting with him gets him talking.

Other than the quest item from the hanging man in Grahtwood that tells you to murder people, this is my favorite quest item. I miss him sometimes

i almost kept that thing, but it stopped talking to me, so i finished the quest.

The Thieves Guild quest line was more fun, except for the part where we had to go out and do fifteen random pickpocketing side missions to advance the skill line.

You can actually do the entire Thieves Guild quest-line and completely level up the skill without doing those horrible pickpocket quests.

Same! I so wanted to keep it to make my evil character feel more evil. Wish we didn't have to turn it in.

He's funny. Reminds me of Morte from Planescape.

I'm the same. Didn't find him funny at all - felt the writing tried to hard and missed the mark by a mile.

Humour is subjective though, so I'm glad some are getting a chuckle out of him.

Wow, just wow.

The Augur and I share the same accent. I am deeply insulted by your proposition that our accent is 'stupid.'

The jokes on the other hand, well, yeah. Maybe I might agree with you there.

Don't worry most where I'm from think the same accent is dreamy af.

VexingArcanist · June 2018

Potty level humor is hardly funny.

Disabling Dialogue in Audio is pure win, and I had never had to do that before Psijic quest line.

Lord_Ninka · June 2018

I turn off dialogue for psijic quests because of him. The "jokes" and that voice are just... Well, they're not for me anyway. But it's good to know not everyone is as irritable and humourless as I am

BaneOfBattler · June 2018

mine is resting in a bookshelf along with the reliquary skull and some other regular skull from a banana player.

Evergnar · June 2018

The revenge of Brackenleaf. Adding insult to injury that is the psijic grind. Dialogue audio /off.

You can.

You keep a replica. I was talking about getting to keep the original and having him give commentary wherever you go.

Oh, alright. Misunderstood you there.

(And I would rather have Abnur then instead, commenting on everything and everyone. Group dungeons should be fun.

)

@MrGarlic Sorry, didn't mean to offend you. It's not the accent, but the voice itself. I don't hope i offend you more if you have the same voice though.
English is not my native language so sometimes i mix stuff up, Sorry again mate.

Knootewoot · June 2018

oops double

f047ys3v3n · June 2018

Love the Augur.

The quest line though...... So much time wasting lazyness on the part of ZOS. A quest line you need to do on many of your toons that consists of nothing but 5 hours or so of horse simulator. They can't make an add on with a marker for this crap soon enough. This set of quests is definitely a new low for ZOS when it comes to just wasting our time with as little effort as possible. It would have been far preferable just to tie the skill line to the actual Psyjic quest line instead of inventing this worthless business about the rifts.

The Augur was pure gold though.

I think they took it a few zones too far. I wouldn't mind 3 or 4 zones including Summerset but the Augur did amuse me.

@Knootewoot
Thank you. I understand. I have deeper version of the Augurs accent

kentgreigrwb17_ESO · June 2018

Wait til you've done it a few times

Armatesz · June 2018

I won't lie the psijiic questline is very repetitive... only major things worth are the skill line and for the unique collectibles. Well at least of what I experienced so far. The auger is hilarious and a great addition to my home : 3

blacksghost · June 2018

The Augur made the run about tolerable. I found myself talking back to him. I want him to be out and about carping at everything all the time. Playing solo he was good company!
The collectible version is nice but not quite the same.

Ostacia · June 2018

I'm in the process of getting my alts to level one in Psijic line (and getting faster and faster at it, haha) and it's weird but, I appreciate the Augur even more now!

DoonerSeraph · June 2018

Would love to see him doing snappy comments at dungeons and trials, oh well

Tan9oSuccka · June 2018

I liked him, but I dislike the quests.

Fetch my wallet x 9, multiplied again by 8 other quests is not fun.

lardvader · June 2018

Yeah sorry I also had to disable the audio during this. Just not my cup of tea I guess. Glad so many enjoyed it though.

Maybe an add-on to make him cool for us without a sense of humour?

lardvader · June 2018

If only he had the voice of Murray from the Monkey Island games

Asardes · June 2018

The Augur became so salty after experiencing many connectivity problems in his extra-dimensional realm

Ackwalan · June 2018

For me;

Auger = Jar Jar Binks.

Dystopia2020 · June 2018

Augur is boring and silly to the point of Monty Python, (and I love Life of Brian) , so I am not dissing Monty Python. Just think of all the awesome things the augur could have told you instead of having to listen to his annoying banter in that wannabe cheeky accent.

I think the devs were really lazy with this questline, I enjoyed the Litany of Blood for the DB so much more.
