This section details actions that will cause the player to break the Oath of the Vengeance.

Act 1

* Note: It is the act of opening the cage door (clicking the Iron Grate) that breaks the Oath of Vengeance. This can be done after Sazza has already been released earlier by another character, as late as Act 2. This is repeatable.

  • (As Dark Urge) Fantasising about chopping off Gale's hand at the flickering rune.
  • (As Dark Urge) Embracing Alfira or Quils murder will break your oath.
  • (As Dark Urge) Ensuring Pandirna never stands again in the Emerald Grove's storage room.
  • (As Dark Urge) Showing the Ox your thoughts causing you to stab it to death in Act 2

Act 2

  • Telling Mol that you like her ambition of becoming the leader of the Thieves Guild
  • Letting Minthara get erased by the torturers at the Moonrise Towers.
  • In Punish the Wicked, forgiving Madeline will break your oath. Telling her to stab herself then stopping her will also do so.
  • Siding with Marcus when he attempts to kidnap Isobel.
  • Killing Steelclaw. For Dark Urge characters, this includes speaking with Steelclaw and choosing the option to try and remember what you did previously, as this leads to automatically killing Steelclaw.
