The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints
How can I get this pacifist to attack me?
1 of 7: Have you found his wife's grave yet?
2 of 7: That's where it needs to happen, since he's always in an extra-sensitive mood when he's out there.
3 of 7: He'll be there during most of the daylight hours, so if he isn't there when you arrive, wait until he is.
4 of 7: WARNING: Save your game before continuing, since things can go wrong due to random glitches.
5 of 7: Drop the cursed mace that Molag Bal gave you on the ground near Melus, then unequip your weapon and punch him a couple of times.
6 of 7: He'll grab up the nearest available weapon (which had better be Molag Bal's special cursed mace) and start attacking you with it.
7 of 7: Unequip all of your armor and other protective items and wait for him to knock your hit points down to zero.
