    I have 2 problems with the thives and the guilds. 1st prob. (don't worry i have already completed the game so feel free to say things about the rest of the game) I have just got my own guil, being an assasin in all, and i lost it coz i got in the red dragons dungeon. so i went back to renal and asked for it back. he says all this stuff responsiblitie and i give him about 4000. nicely done. but as soon as the convo is over it says that i lose my guild again from lack of paying, so i pay him again, and again, and again, and again.... until from about 10'000 i go to 10 gold. but still it says my guild has been revoked. I don't see what problems this poses but it means now i can't get any missions 4 the guilds done. help me with that plz.
    prob 2. because of that i decide to kill the entire guild. erm, big mistake. renal died easy. but as soon as i attack renal some git comes at the possition of my main character and starts hacking away. i though this will be easy. mistake no 2. i don't what it is, whether he has huge strength or a wicked sword but he turns my people to meaty chunks in 2 hits. i can't to kill him at all before my team is gibbed all over the and are redecorating the walls. help me plz.

    [​IMG] Hehe, problem No.2 first :D You encountered the "goodlike killer", made to punish evil folk like you for betraying *their own guild* (!) :D I met him when I tried to pickpocket Aran, and failed... ;)
    The reason for that is that you have to choose one of two paths through the game - joining the vampires or thiefs. If you join one side, you can´t simply switch over to the other again. The killer is there to ensure this.

    Problem No.1: When you get your guild, you will have to pay your rent for the guild - you have to, for the guild *allows* you to work in Atkathla. You have to pay every 5 days or so - if you don´t, you loose it. There are small notes on the screen that tell you that your thieves returned from their tasks, giving you a *HINT* to return to Atkathla *FAST*.

    However, you said that, after paying some money, you got your guild back. Despite that you are told to loose your guild again and again and again - sounds like a bug for me ... I´ve never encountered something like that, sorry. Maybe you find something using the Sorcerer`s Place´s search engine or look at Biowares buglist.

    I think that's one of the problems that the patch fixes - don't trust me though, look at the list next to the patch download.

    well thanx for that I was just hoping to find out that u could kill him. But it took me 10 times to only get him down to near death and that was with my main man left, he died shortly after. I started a game as a female sorcerer and am using the s keeper, you know just 4 fun, and might put my resistence to basicly anything, coz i tried it in another game and everyones weapons wewre innefective, so i might try that.
