What's the biggest bounty you've paid?

A couple days ago I had huge bounty on me and got caught by a guard indoors. Couldn't escape. So he killed me and took everything I had and 85k gold.

TESO needs a wardrobe system badly. Something similar to WoW's tmog system would make this game one of the best mmorpg out there!

    Bounty paid?

    *laughs heartily

    Flee is the only option I ever pick.

    Then I tuck my tail between my legs and have a fence pay off my bounty.

    The highest about 800ish, thanks to the Thieves Guild "sneak" quests which has NPCs spotting me because of their accursed X-Ray vision.

    Thanks the the Anniversary Event article, we now know that anyone who claims to have PAID more than 362k is umm..... "stretching the facts".

    Around 2000, but I went out farming for a few hours and avoided towns, until it went down to next to nothing. I was being frugal.

    About that “Highest unpaid bounty: 248,655,731 gold
    Highest paid bounty: 362,324 gold”

    How was that paid, to guard or to a fence? Willingly to guard or confiscated from the dead body?

    I went after that 100k achievement once and only discovered it didn’t log it if it was from a death - so I suspect it would have to be through a fence, but I want to be sure.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno can you eliminate the uncertainty on that so we who accept the challenge know what must be done for our effort to be appropriately recorded?

    Somewhere around 75k so I could get the achievement. (Which is dumb, get rewarded for being a crappy theif?)

    I haven't paid a bounty in years. Not since Counterfeit Edict became a thing and my many months of farming Abah's Watch and DB motifs have flooded my bank with more than enough to erase any bounty I amass on my underworld dealings.

    Shame too, I will never get the Contraband Violet color as a result of frugality.

    I paid the 2K bounty so I could get the Achievement on one character.

    Other than that, maybe 200 gold? Besides, I just use the Clemeny Passive and go directly to the Refuge and take care of things there for a discount.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Just over 100k. I killed indiscriminately the day the justice system went live and racked up a huge (for the time) bounty. After a few months I was tired of sneaking around towns, I paid off the remaining balance. It took at least a few weeks afterward to stop flinching and getting ready to run when I saw a guard.

    100 or so gold during the Jesters event lol everyone knows why :tongue:

    What gets me is I got the bounty in the Ebonheart pact and then got caught in Aldmeri Dominion like a minute later, how did they know so fast? Plus aren't they enemies? Why would Aldmeri Dominion care if I stole some pig in Ebonheart?

    When I was trying to get that achieve for paying bounties--and stupidly after getting all the passives to reduce bounty--the max I could get was like 9.3k. Even murdering people in broad daylight wouldn't get it any higher. I don't know if that's a bug or due to some passive, but that's the highest I've gotten or paid off.

    About 150k all at once, and that was because I was going for the achievement. Now that I've got it, I intend to never pay a bounty again. If I don't use a counterfit pardon edict I just park and wait.

    During the jester's festival while I was helping others I wish I wrote down the full amount of bounty I got but it was around lower 100k. Honestly I don't remember how much of it I paid off but I slept off most and when I woke up I paid the rest. I have all thieves guild and dark brotherhood passives associated with it. Pretty sure I just slept like 5 hours. I remembered when I woke up I still had a bounty but honestly don't remember how much it was... pretty sure less than 100k when I woke up.

    100k ish. to a fence. for that achievement. I don't normally build up a bounty when out stealing/stabbing. so for that one, I had to go deliberately kill a bunch of mobs in Malabar Tor. I don't like paying bounty to guards becasue they take my stuff, so I also carry a stack of pardons with me, just in case.

    that stat isn't accurate I paid a 450k two weeks ago after going for the black market mogul achievement real hard. I guess they didn't account for the last month or so.
