The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints
Hircine
1 of 8: Hircine's shrine is at location 50 on the Great Forest map.
2 of 8: You'll have to be at least level 17 to get this quest.
3 of 8: Talk to Vajhira and say you're a hunter.
4 of 8: You'll learn that Hircine will only accept the pelt of a bear or wolf as an offering.
5 of 8: When you give a pelt to the statue, it'll task you to go kill the unicorn who's hanging around in the Harcane Grove and bring back its horn.
6 of 8: To see where the grove is, make "Hircine" into your active quest and then check the world map for a green arrow a bit to the SE (or see location 55 on my Great Forest map).
7 of 8: Unfortunately, the unicorn is not only a powerful beast itself, but is surrounded by three powerful minotaur guardians.
8 of 8: Turn the 'corn's horn over to Hircine's statue to get his Savior's Hide armor, which is light armor with a constant Resist Magic effect on it just like it was in Morrowind (except that this Resist Magic effect is only 25% instead of 60%).
