Repent your sins by going on a pilgrimage. Location(s): See below Reward: Removes the detrimental effects from equipping the Relics of the Crusader ID: ccMTYSSE001_Quest Added by: Divine Crusader

Quick Walkthrough

1. Go to Four Skull Lookout and acquire the Crusader's armor.
2. Equip any piece of the armor.
3. If required, pray at each of the nine shrines.

Detailed Walkthrough

Start the quest by equipping any piece of Crusader's armor, found at Four Skull Lookout, between Karthwasten and Karthspire. If your Infamy (see notes) is higher than 15, or if it increases while any of the Crusader's items are equipped, this quest will be started with the following message: "Your crimes have made you unfit to wield the Crusader's Relics. Make the pilgrimage to repent your sins and once again seek the favor of the gods."

Once the quest has started, you will be required to cleanse your soul by visiting the various shrines, similar to the Oblivion quest.

All items may be equipped and unequipped freely, regardless of your Infamy. However, the active effect 'Relics of the Crusader' will impose Health and Stamina 300 regeneration penalties and Carry Weight is reduced by 100 while you are 'unfit'.

Notes

• Infamy is the total of your: Murders + Assaults + Pockets Picked + Horses Stolen + Items Stolen + Trespasses + Jail Escapes.
• If you get too close to a shrine, the regular effect may be triggered and your progress won't update. If this happens, step back from the shrine a little and try again.

Bugs

• The quest can restart while it is already in progress if your Infamy increases. This will cause all of your current shrine progress to reset, but those shrines will no longer be displayed as quest targets. ^?
  • In the Console, use the setstage X where X is the index of the location, as displayed in the table, above.
• The quest can clear the map while it is in progress. This will retain your current shrine progress, but other shrines will no longer be displayed as quest targets. ^?
• The quest can restart while it is already in progress without an increase in infamy. This will cause all of your current shrine progress to reset. ^?
• Worshiping at the Shrine of Mara may not register, requiring you to use the console to complete the quest. ^?
• The Shrine of Dibella incorrectly gives the Blessing of Akatosh
  Mod Notes: POIReach16, ccMTYSSE001_ShrineActivator doesn't have the custom properties set on the TempleBlessingScript.
• The quest will trigger if anything causes a criminal act to be registered, even other bugs. For example, attacking a sleeping Draugr will erroneously incur an assault bounty, triggering the quest when any relic is re-equipped. ^?
• The quest will trigger even while doing a quest objective that requires a crime.
• The quest can apparently restart even after completion, even if you have not gained any infamy since completing it, even if all you do is wield one of the weapons to try and put it on a weapon rack.

Quest Stages

The Pilgrim's Path (ccMTYSSE001_Quest)
Stage	Finishes Quest	Journal Entry
10		I have committed acts that have made me unfit to wear the Crusader's Relics. I will need to make a pilgrimage to nine shrines in order to repent. Objective 10: Pray at the shrines (0/9)
100	Finishes quest

• The following empty quest stages were omitted from the table: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

Notes

• Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the Radiant Quest system, and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
• Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
• Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
• If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
• On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage ccMTYSSE001_Quest stage, where stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages, but it is possible to clear all stages of the quest using resetquest ccMTYSSE001_Quest.
