The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints
Dimhollow Crypt
1 of 11: After entering the crypt, sneak forward until you come to a large cave room.
2 of 11: Look to the left to see a death hound near a closed gate. Try to sneak-shoot it, then see if you can sneak-shoot the two vampires who are also over there. If not, go hack them up with one of your new Dawnguard-brand weapons.
3 of 11: Go over to the gate to find the dead bodies of Vigilant Tolan and the two vampires he killed, then figure out how to open the gate.
4 of 11: Past the gate, go down the passage until you reach a stream, then follow it to some steps that lead up to a vampire and her skeleton pals. Kill them off, then make your way along the western upper ledge to a gate.
5 of 11: Thankfully, this one can be opened easily by using the lever that's just to the right of it. Past it, go down the passage on the right to reach a spot where vampires are fighting the native draugr.
6 of 11: Hang back and let them fight, then finish off the survivor(s). Look all around the borders of the room to find four pull-chain-opened gates.
7 of 11: The northern of the two gates that are on the west side of the room is the one you need to go past in order to proceed. Check past the others if you want some optional combat and loot.
8 of 11: Go down the passage to reach a large cave room where several skeletons will rise up and attack you. There's also a vampire on the upper floor in the back of the room.
9 of 11: Find the ramp that leads up to the upper floor, then sneak down the next passage and try to get the drop on the two vampires and death hounds that are ahead.
10 of 11: Past a crypt area with some frostbite spiders (which the vampires may have already killed) is a large closed gate. Before you open it with the lever that's to the left of it, watch as a vampire and a giant spider on the other side fight it out.
11 of 11: Open the gate after one of them is dead, then try to sneak-attack the survivor. Just past them is a door leading to the Dimhollow Cavern area.
