Artifacts w/ Quests in Skyrim

Post by Hackattack »

What artifacts would you guys like to be seen revived or returning into Skyrim? Also are there any shrine/artifact quests you think they should change or bring back from Morrowind.

I personally think they all should be much harder. In oblivion they were just to easy to obtain, and though the quests for the shrines were fun, they just didn't offer much of a challenge. It seemed like everyone was running around with an umbra and goldbrand.

I feel that they should bring back Boethiah's underwater shrine quest for the goldbrand. It was pain in the a$$ but once I got it, i actually felt like a had a true artifact that i earned.

If Goldbrand, then Eltonbrand. It was the best part of
goldbrand in Morrowind.

Wabbajack. Any of Sheogorath's artefacts. Causing mayhem is just too much fun :D

Daedric Crescent... It is rumored in Oblivion that the Nerevarine has left on an expedition to Akavir. Assuming Skyrim deals with an Akaviri invasion, then let's have a quest to recover the blade from a powerful Akaviri warlord. Perhaps Nerevarine lost his life, had to trade it for a worthy cause, or we could leave the acquisition a mystery. This could also work with any other weapon or item that appears in Morrowind but not Oblivion. Perhaps Ice Blade of the Monarch would be more fitting, but how SICK was the Crescent!

Sometimes the need is just too great
For the solace we seek

Becomes a keen and bloody sword

I would just like to point out here that Solstheim, the nordic area you travel to in Morrowind, will likely not be present in the new game whatsoever.

I want Debaser. It's not an artifact or anything but it's just so unique. Not having that bad boy sheathed at my side in Skyrim is going to feel like the death of an old friend.

I want to see a Jyggalag artifact... seeing as he was reinstated with the Shivering Isles. There should be interesting rumors going round if Shivering Isles gets counted into this.

The quest for the artifacts should be a lot more epic - I want huge dungeons like in Daggerfall, at least a few really huge ones for specific artifacts. And it should be way harder, too.

I'd like to see a full set of artifact armor, and not just a reskinned set either. Something completely unique. Also, ideally it would have comparable or better stats than the generic armor found throughout the game, as opposed to the Imperial Dragon Armor.

I'd be cool for the Umbra to show up again, and I'm also a fan of Jyggalag's sword from Shivering Isles, but it may be kind of awkard to find a way to fit that in.

Cowl of Nocturnal. Maybe somehow she gets it back and gives it to the player for the shrine quest (assuming there is one).

Umbra, this weapon is pretty badazz. It helps me actually get souls too, since i never play and sissy mages or whatever. Also, I always like the quests or story that the game has about Umbra

I vote for Brian Mays guitar to be a daedric artifact.

Rocked out 100 pnts for 300 secs.
Fortify awesome 40.

No but seriously I wouldn't mind seeing some new artifacts and maybe weapons from the Nords Dragon god that I heard so much about in Oblivion.

Baurus: Our job is to get the Emperor out of situations like this. Though I'll admit, things aren't going exactly to plan.

Casandra: At the moment, the deadliest weapon at my disposal is a goblin's head on a stick. I'd be worried if this was the plan.
