📋 About This Mod

Description

  • []During the main quest "No Sudden Moves", the game offers many secret doors and passages on The Scow for you to sneak up to the artifact.

    []However, even if nobody witnesses the artifact being taken, all the guards will immediately turn hostile, and you will incur a bounty.

    []This mod allows you to avoid this if you didn't try to persuade Petrov and weren't detected trespassing by the guards.

    []If you attempted persuasion, alerted the guards, or attacked anyone, the quest will revert to the vanilla behaviour.

    []After you have stealthily stolen the artifact, You will no longer have the option to have Petrov walk you down to the now empty display.

    []You still need to sneak out. If guards detect you in off limits locations as you leave, they will still turn hostile.

    []Papyrus scripts only.

    []No plugin.

Installation/Uninstallation/Update

  • []Whenever. Doesn't matter.

    []Use a mod manager such as mod organizer 2 or vortex

FAQ

Q: Maybe Petrov rigged the artifact up with an alarm or something.

A: I don't care. The game is less fun if you can sneak all the way up to the artifact but still have to murder your way out.
