Delphine and Esbern MUST die. They want me to betray Paarthurnax, who did way more for me (and all of skyrim) than these 2 miserable pieces of manure ever did. BUT they are essential, which is a problem you cant fix on a console..however i had an idea...

Would it be possible to:

1. Port my 360 save to a pc
2. play my save on said pc, make said "infidels" unessential
3. Kill said NPCs.
4. Save game.
5. Port back to 360 and resume the game with no problems

?

please let me know if this is something i can do

edit: i know for a fact games can be ported back and forth from 360 to pc as long as no "non vanilla" content is added. I guess what im really looking for is an answer to whether or not my game will still work once i do that.

lol... no.

besides, all that does is clear out Sky Haven Temple, you still can't rebuild the Blades as you see fit.

better idea... post this post to the developers so they know that of the 6 or so million players, there's at least a million of us out here that would like to tell Delphine that she's a closed minded fool and teach her the error of her ways.

I "get" the importance of rebuilding the Blades and that I'm new to this whole Dragonborn thing... and the truth is, she's new to serving a Dragonborn... lol.

Esbern is just kinda... well... the sort to do as he's told and wish he was still with his books. He'll do as he's told if we tell him, too...

I thought you had a choice in the matter.

what about the PC? i used the set essential thingy and looked up on esbern and delphine's original NPC code. Well some other NPCS died, but not these 2. Any1 know why>

and OP, let the thalmor finish their blades-wiping mission. Anyway there are only 2 blades left ^^

the point is that the remaining blades give the radiant "rebuilding the blades" quests, if you kill them to be rid of them then there's nothing but the end of the npc's... Sky Haven Temple is empty when you're not in it.

and no, there's no way I have ever heard of to export your game so you can bring it to PC and console kill them and then export it back to your console... the "cloud" saves by console then game, not just game. sorry. svcks and nothing to be done but wait and harass the programmers for some DLC.

I won't be shocked if there are like 500 different mods around this and a "new" blade to give us the radiant quests because so many people have complained. lol. seriously.

I dont care about rebuilding the blades. I already have my own blades armor fully enchanted and upgraded. Its my endgame set, along with Dragonbane. Im totally content with being the last blade in history i just want those idiots dead. They try to order ME around? ME? THE DOVAHKIIN? these great "dragon slayers" dont even have enough guts to try and do it themselves. They're not only fools, but cowards as well. Their death is all that will satisfy me.

edit : i guess i WOULD like to rebuild the blades, but weak, unenlightened cowards such as esbern and delphine have no place by my side.

If you already have a blades set of armor, but don't care about the blades, then why wear it? The only legimiate reason for doing so would be out of some RP reason.

But if you don't care about roleplaying either, then you might as well not care about delphine so much. She's just a pixellated non-entity. You'll get over her invincibility eventually.

i want to role play as the last blade in history. delphine and esbern arent even worthy of the order. like i said, they dont even have the guts to try and kill paarthurnax themselves...they know they wouldnt stand a chance because they know they are weak, hence the reason they try making me do their dirty work. i refuse to be manipulated by people weaker and less enlightened than i am. again, their death is all that will satisfy me.

I play on the 360 as well...I find it fun on our way to the Blades headquarters we take a slight detour to High Hothgar and they uh...end up "flying" off the mountain.

Shame they don't die.

That's a valid complaint, but... roleplaying the last blade is probably one of those things that isn't up to you. There is freedom in the game, but not that much freedom. svcks for you, but maybe you should change your story a bit. Ultimately, the writers get a say on where they want the blades to go.

even if i were to change my story, id STILL want them dead.

Well, maybe you can hope for an expansion then. I have a feeling her involvement in the story isn't done. Or paarthurnax's, for that matter.

I doubt Bethesda would ever allow Esbern to die though. Other than from old age.

After Delphine gives you the Ultimatum...

...I just want to be able to say,

"Well, let's just see how the amazing dragonslayer blades do at slaying dragons without the dragonborn! Oh and have fun playing hide and seek with the Thalmor!"

and get the look on her face as she thinks about that.

Yes you can do all of this, no you can't talk about it on these forums...

Yea, you can either go back if you have an older save before going to Esbern or the Graybeards. If you pick the greybeards, Delphine and Esbern would simply dissapear after.
