The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints

Oblivion World 1

  • 1 of 5: You appear facing north, straight toward a large, closed war gate with a giant citadel tower beyond it, and smaller towers on either side.
  • 2 of 5: That gate is blocking the path to the citadel you need to get to.
  • 3 of 5: Going through this citadel's front door will randomly choose one of five specific citadel towers for you to ascend.
  • 4 of 5: TIP: Save before you enter the citadel's front door, then restore and try again if you don't get a smaller and simpler tower area. (The Gore Steeple and the Dreaded Refuge are the easiest.)
  • 5 of 5: In all cases, make your way to the top of the tower via ramps and side areas, then enter the Sigillum Sanguis area and grab the sigil stone from the top of the fiery column.
