    Don't throw them at guards. If you throw them at random civilians you shouldn't get a bounty.

    You're harassing NPCS with mudballs... they have the right to call the police.... I mean guards on you. Deal with it.

    Stop throwing them at the guards. Only bounty I got was from the queen.

    If you throw the Mudball at the ones you are supposed to throw it at, then no bounty. At least for me this morning.

    I got the quest, and I remembered from a post yesterday someone asking about where to find the Skald King. So, I get the quest this morning, go find him, and throw the mudball. I get a bounty. Weird. Then I look at my Journal, I know I know, RTFM, and it tells me to find people in Skywatch, not the king. So, I go there, and I find I have to turn the Attack Innocents on. Weird, so I do with Trepidation, position myself to make a get away and fling a mudball. No consequences. Then I get the follow up to fling one at an ambassador. So I go and do that, and no bounty.

    So, are you flinging the mudball at the ones the Journal is telling you to?
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    I love the mud ball quest, it's so funny. Standing at the wayshrine in Skywatch and some random players and I were all throwing mud balls at each other tonight - we couldn't stop giggling :D

    It's only by throwing them at guards and the 3 rulers that you incur a bounty

    Anyone else is perfectly fine, though you do need "Prevent attacking innocents" turned off

    There is an achievement to hit King Jorun, King Emeric and Queen Whatsherface with mudballs. You get bounty for this. And you should. Well except for Queen Whatsherface. You're doing her a favor, covering her in mud.

    Why don't you deal with it. I am following the journal entry. Ran two other characters thru with no problems. So take your comment and shove it where the sun don't shine AH..

    I completed the quest by just hitting other players.

    Hitting the leaders only completes the achievement but not the daily quest. Deal with any good stolen items before attacking the leaders as they are often inside with guards making it difficult to escape.

    Pro tip for the ruler achievement. Either stand by the door, throw, turn, and leave. (Possible for Skuld King) Or have an invisibility potion and one of those forged pardons from the Thieves Guild dlc. Then throw, drink, absolve. Easy-peasy.

    I will have to check and see if I got the Tick for the Skald King then.

    Hmm, can you throw mubballs at these guys if the quest is not active?

    The three rulers, plus guards. You get bounties for throwing them at guards too.

    Regular citizens and the ambassadors are fair game.

    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    It's one of the festival quests, set in Skywatch were you have throw mud balls at 10 NPCs and an ambassador. One of the possible box rewards are 10 one time use balls, or a memento with unlimited. You can throw the two latter at players. I got hit twice leaving Skywatch. I tested one on a player under the main tent. Kind of felt bad about that one, they were just standing there. But if anyone wants to bring it, it's on.

    Lol a little grumpy. If you are doing it correctly you won't get a bounty. You are throwing them at the wrong people. I turned allow attacking innocents to off and only threw at people it would allow me to.

    I got a bounty from all three leaders. But so long as you avoid guards with torches for a few minutes you should be fine. There's that one outside Emeric's castle to the right. That ***.

    Having to change a game setting before and after is bad quest design though. And I'm only getting the title on one character because I asked myself, would I rather have an achievement or keep my second Mundus, and that was a super-easy question to answer.

    Do you also get angry when guards catch you doing Dark Brotherhood quests and you get a bounty? You are also just following the journal, are you not?

    Guards and the leaders are not fooling around, of course they would be mad and give you a bounty for that. Hit literally anyone else in Skywatch. They are in the middle of a festival and okay with some silliness. Or just throw them at other players.
