Skyrim talk:Mercenary (wilderness)
GreetingEdit
"Mercenary: There's been word of some trouble nearby. I'm on my way to investigate."
if you manage to convince him to tell you the job, he replies by marking your map to a place relatively nearby and tell you to take care of whatever happens there (ex: Rannveig's Fast). it doesn't comes out under miscellaneous quest list, so there's no quest arrow. probably a bug or a non-mark quest.120.165.47.230 13:24, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
- Mercenary marked "Mistwatch" on my map and I wasn't nearly close to it. — Unsigned comment by 95.176.164.68 (talk)
- I don't think it's a bug or even a non-marked quest, but just another way for the game to mention areas to you for you to explore, like the guards talking about nearby locations. -Vardis 00:43, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
Mercenary in path to High HrothgarEdit

Imperial Camp was marked not a "Random Dungeon"Edit
When i met a merc NW of Angas Mill, he marked the imperial camp far west of Dawnstar. Does that mean he tries to kill the camp? As far as I have seen, they just go to the dungeon and just stand there. But even if, why marking an imperial camp.

- The Imperial and Stormcloak military camps are "Dungeons" so there's nothing "wrong" with that choice. As to what happens if the merc gets there, I don't know. Silence is GoldenBreak the Silence 01:41, 25 February 2013 (GMT)
If you're not successful?Edit
I was not successful in persuading the mercenary to let me do her job. When I talked to her again, she game me the same greeting but wouldn't engage in conversation, so I let her go on her way. If I had chosen to follow her, would she have led me somewhere, or just kept wandering around until something killed her? Obax (talk) 02:45, 20 December 2014 (GMT)
