The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints

Retrieve the Jagged Crown.

  • 1 of 10: After Galmar gives a motivational speech, follow him and the other Stormcloaks toward Korvanjund's entrance.
  • 2 of 10: When you encounter hostile Imperial soldiers, you can either lead the charge or hang back and let your fellow Stormcloaks do all the work.
  • 3 of 10: Follow them to the Korvanjund Temple's entrance door, then go inside and follow Galmar around, either helping to kill the Imperial soldiers or just staying out of the way.
  • 4 of 10: When Galmar stops next to a tunnel and tells you to find another way into the room past it, you could just run down the tunnel and start attacking the nearest Imperial. However, that would make you the main target at first.
  • 5 of 10: Follow Galmar to a room with a lone Imperial to kill, then go through a door to enter the Korvanjund Halls area.
  • 6 of 10: Keep following until your progress is halted by a fancy puzzle door, then figure out how to open it.
  • 7 of 10: Past that is a large room with a gate at its west end that you'll need to open.
  • 8 of 10: Several draugr will attack the Stormcloaks after you open the gate, so drop down there quickly if you want to participate in the combat. After the draugr are all dead, follow Galmar and the boys into the Korvanjund Crypt area.
  • 9 of 10: When they reach the chamber with the crown, go up to the throne with the dead-looking king on it. It's a powerful draugr scourge, and you're going to have to kill it.
  • 10 of 10: Loot the draugr scourge to get the Jagged Crown and the next objective.
