Beth is really teasing us by saying:"Werebears what men that are bears.

Can a mod move this to the spoilers section.

My favorite is the crack about the butterflies. I was on an alchemist character and I was like, "holy crap, how did you know?"

He is funny

No spoilers here, you'll meet M'aiq everywhere on your way. I like seeing him in the distance when I'm in the middle of nowhere.

m'aiq is one of those things that make this game so much fun, and I love how hes so hard to find, kinda makes it special

I found him for the first time, after 114 hours. Well chuffed.

i wish he was marriage-able.

I've run into him about four times now in wildly different locations. The best one yet that I've heard from him is...

Spoiler

his father and grandfather were also named Maiq.

I ran into him three times in my first 12 hours of play and haven't seen him in the past 58 hours.

Is he geographically bound?

I don't believe so, no, I've seen him in all sorts of different places.

I am walking all the roads of Skyrim, and have run into him about 4 times now, so he does get around. He always seems to have something different to say each time.

No he is part of the random encounters.

Hm you know his words from Oblivion? "Who would like to see Mai'q naked? sick sick people really sad"

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 7:12 am

First time I saw him it was night and he was almost invisible in a bush if it wasn't for his orange robe. Said the one about mysticism and it cracked me up.

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 9:52 pm

I found him about 2 hours in, on my first playthough, just after completing Bleak Falls Barrow.

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 8:56 pm

I found him in my first few hours, on the way to Riften. Haven't found him again in over 50 more hours of play :confused:

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 2:54 pm

In my game I see him all the time and everywhere. Honestly I've seen him about 20-30 times and I'm 100h in.

I almost gave up my career as an alchemist after that one:D But it's too profitable, and one must do what good business dictates!

(Besides that, they get on my nerves! Too often I mistake them for being dragons, argh!! So, off with their wings!)

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 11:44 pm

I saw 2 Khajiits in the distance and thought, "ooh kitties!

", but the first khajiit was a thief and i killed him. So i sprinted toawrds the other with my weapon ready when i realise it was maiq. I already met him like 3 times, but it was nice seeing him again.

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 8:22 pm

Hm you know his words from Oblivion? "Who would like to see Mai'q naked? sick sick people really sad" :biggrin:

Sounds like M'aiq has some nasty secrets under that robe of his.

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 7:45 am

I did not see Maiq until two real time days ago. And I have seen him twice now. I think walking places is how to best get him to appear.

I will leave this in General, as Maiq is pretty common knowledge. Plus, he shows up in random locations so that can't really be Spoiled. I would prefer that people put his qoutes in Spoiler Tags if you can. That way if someone has not met up with him yet, they will hear it all for the first time.

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 9:18 pm

Yes, M'aiq has some food quotes this time around. I liked the butterflies comment, too, except that they respawn from zoning so he's not being accurate.

Or maybe he's just trying to lay a guilt trip on the PC.

Really, though, I never use fast travel and I run into him all the time. In fact, I'd say half of our encounters have been him and an enemy mob of some kind, sometimes rather nasty.

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 10:32 am

I see him quite a bit because I walk everywhere and my favorite line is the one about fur on armor.

:tes:

» Tue Jun 05, 2012 2:13 pm

More than 200+ hours in, level 52...And I've still never once run into him.

You don't have to look for him; he'll find you.
