I'm playing an unpatched GOTY edition with NOTN and SI loaded, and I've repeatedly tried to permanent-glitch the crown's attributes following the method on the talk page. (Take the crown from dead King-Umbricano, escape the room, fix and equip the crown, fast travel to a city and get arrested before the danger wears off." But here is what happens...

Messages "You cannot repair equipment when you are in danger" and "You cannot fast travel when you are in danger" Without repairing, I cannot equip the crown. I can swim to Bravil and still be in danger, but even if I fix and equip the crown and get arrested while the danger music is still plalying it is too late and the attributes do not stick.

I have personality and sneak at 100% and the guard outside Bravil won't arrest me. I have to go through the door into the city to pickpocket that guard, but I have made it with the danger music still in the back ground.

Is it possible to permanently get the crown's skills or is this something that was theoretical but not tested.

On a marginally related note. I have seen where it is supposedly possible to switch from bow to melee weapon while an arrow is in flight and get a 6x damage instead of 3x, but the several times I have tried, I get a message saying I cannot switch weapons while attacking.


Thanks for any ideas.

You can't get the effect you're thinking of, which is the same as the Draconian Madstone or the Ring of the Vipereye. The crown is a quest item, yes, but it is like when you get the Boots of Springheel Jak for the Gray Fox. Even if you wear them after you get them, the programming of the game prevents any glitching.

That's what I figured, but the talk wiki gives instructions. So I assume that the guy did it scuccessfully.
