Bugs

Route Logic Considerations

  • Discover the Cloud Ruler Temple map marker before finishing this quest since starting Weynon Priory will make it impossible to discover the location later.
  • Find the Heir overlaps with both Breaking the Siege of Kvatch, and Weynon Priory.
  • The Battle for Castle Kvatch should be done while you are already at the Kvatch Chapel after talking to Martin.
  • Map Exploration should already be done prior to starting this quest, allowing the player to directly travel to the Kvatch Oblivion Gate.
  • Finishing this quest spawns the first batch of 10 fixed Oblivion Gates, although closing these gates shouldn't be done until all possible gates have spawned. At this point there is now a 25% chance for a Random Oblivion Gate to spawn as well. See the Oblivion Gates Shut page for more info.
