Journal bug

I'm finding that the quest isn't becoming "finished" in the Journal. Trying to see what's happening. Additionally, I already investigated the Disappearance of the Dwarves, but can't get him or the other Vivec Mage's Guild members to discuss it. Probably fixable with AddTopic. --Edwin Herdman 23:27, 18 March 2007 (EDT)

Trebonius' Items

Unless this is random, this should be the loot on Trebonius after killing him. This of course is for whomever is working on this article. I hope you find it useful enough for the article!

Trebonius' Equipment consists of:
Trebonius' Staff (6500 charges, value: 10,000)
Weakness to fire 7 to 15% for 6 seconds in 5 ft.
Weakness to shock 7 to 15% for 6 seconds in 5 ft.

Yes. I got that same equipment. I finished him off with only one hit... Actually, I think it was probably the Reflect potions I used before meeting him. He killed himself with the reflected spells he hurled at me. --Brf 11:01, 18 April 2008 (EDT)

Promotion Glitch

The first time i dueled Trebonius i was at the rank of wizard. I went to the Arena to duel him and i won, i checked my journal and it said i had become the Arch-Mage but when i checked my status it said i was only a Master-Wizard. I assume that defeating him only netted me 1 promotion instead of 2 like it should have. Has this happened to anyone else? --Archmage123 22:21, 28 December 2008 (EST)

I think it has, see Morrowind:Arch-Mage#Bugs. Lukish_ Tlk Cnt 23:01, 28 December 2008 (EST)

Question

If you become Arch-Mage before completing all of a guild head's quests, will they remain permanently un-finishable, aside from your current one? For example, I hardly did any of Skink-in-Tree's-Shade's quests before I became Arch-Mage (I was in the middle of setting up a meeting :\), so I know I can complete that one, but will all others become unavailable?~~L0rd H3nRz 19:58, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Items

if you become archmage peacefully theres nothing stopping you from taunt killing him for his items right? (Eddie the head 08:42, 4 May 2011 (UTC))

Nope. Taunt away! rpeh •T•C•E• 09:08, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Choice of Duel or Peaceful sharing in becoming Arch-Mage

If you're not sure which method you want to use, be sure to challenge Trebonius first (if you're a Wizard) or talk to him after Edwina asks you to (when you have reached Master Wizard), and then reply "Nevemind" [sic] to his challenge. You can challenge him again later. However, if you obtain the letter first (setting quest stage 20) the "Arch-Mage" topic (to which Trebonius responds with the challenge) is not available. If you have the letter from Skink but don't give it to Trebonius, you can still challenge him if you have done so previously. Giving him the letter makes you both Arch-Mage, sharing the title.
