Dragonborn "the final descent"

Post by operadiver »

Hello to all dragonborns,

I got stuck in the quest "the final descent".
I grab the journal of Gratin , I read it and than I use the sword.
But I can hit where I want , I use the trick described by uesp but it didn't work.

Can you please tell me where exactly and how to hit the magic door so it opens.

Thanks a lot

Using the bloodskal blade, you have to perform power attacks aiming the red shot in the vague direction of the red slot on the wall. (there's a huge tolerance level for accuracy)

Vertical lines require a standing power attack, horizontal lines require a side stepping power attack.

Also do it while you're looking towards those red lines. Took me ages to figure out that I had to look up during those power attacks after those red lines had moved further up.

I finally was able to open the door, but the description on uesp must be changed. I had to hit the door frame 5 times , the two first times horizontal hits, than two verical hit, than a 5 time a last vertical hit on top and at the end only a vertical hit in the middle of the door. Also after every good hit the door frame moved and this is important to add on the description, so that future Dragonborns will know that they are on the good way.

Hmm, before today the wiki had a description in the Notes section of the Bloodskal Barrow page, but nothing on the Raven Rock Mine page and only a very short explanation on the quest page itself. The notes from the first of these have now been copied to the others, do you think this is more helpful? It's more detailed, at least, but I'm not sure if it's confusing or not. That door puzzle is hard to explain. =\
