Question about Cadwell Silver/Gold quests

Monroe585

I'm on DC. Cadwell Silver takes me to AD after that. If I do EP next instead of AD, will that mess up the Silver/Gold quests?

No, it just means that you won't get credit for Cadwells Silver until you complete the Dominion. And if you've already completed the Pact before the Dominion that, you'll get credited with both Silver and Gold at once, but Silver first, and Silver for the Covenant is the Dominion: as far as Cadwell is concerned, the factions go in counterclockwise order on the map of Tamriel.

You can even do this without completing the DC quest chain - if you go straight to Stirk and Coldharbour via the Harborage quests, and get your soul back without even finishing your own faction's quests.

And of course you can even complete the actual quests necessary for Cadwells Silver and Gold, before you do even that, but Cadwell won't actually *credit* you with having completed Silver (2nd faction in counterclockwise order), or Gold, until you've done that.

Personally I think this bit is TOO free now - I believe that Stirk and Coldharbour should be inaccessible until you've at least completed your own faction quests (which players refer to as Cadwell's Bronze, though the game never refers to it that way) - but that's the way the game is now.
