The Elder Scrolls III: Bloodmoon Hints

Where can I find the buried pirate treasure that I keep hearing about?

  • 1 of 10: Find the pirates who buried it and ask them.
  • 2 of 10: Their undead remains are clattering around in the Himmelhost Barrow (location 18 on the Solstheim Map).
  • 3 of 10: After defeating all of the pirate skeletons, search the captain's skeleton to find a key and a note.
  • 4 of 10: The note gives a clue as to where to look for the treasure.
  • 5 of 10: The first line of the note clearly refers to the Sun Stone (location 15 on the map), so go there to start the search.
  • 6 of 10: The next line directs you northward to the Valbrandr Barrow (location 13 on the map).
  • 7 of 10: Search around the Valbrandr Barrow for a muck-covered pirate chest.
  • 8 of 10: You'll find it next to the barrow building on the back side. Carefully scan the ground until you see it.
  • 9 of 10: Pick up some of the muck to get it out of the way, then use the treasure chest to open it with the pirate captain's key.
  • 10 of 10: It contains lots of gold and jewels. Plunder hearty!
