The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints
Explore Gyldenhul Barrow.
1 of 6: Before you travel to Gyldenhul Barrow, obtain an ancient nordic pickaxe. You won't get very far in the barrow without one.
2 of 6: Enter the barrow after killing off the reavers who are hanging around outside, then look around the entry room to find two stalhrim deposits.
3 of 6: Mine both of them to find that the western one was covering up a secret passage.
4 of 6: Go through the iron door at the end of the passage to find a large treasure room with lots of gold coin piles and some high-quality equipment in it. Note that a gate closes behind you as you loot the room, so you may want to quicksave before entering it.
5 of 6: Past the next iron door, go down a bunch of steps to enter a huge chamber, then go to the back of it to find Haknir Death-Brand's skeleton.
6 of 6: A unique scimitar named Bloodscythe lies next to him. When you take it, you'll be trapped in the chamber and forced to fight Haknir's ghost, which is a powerful dual-wielder.
