Guide to finding Barenziah stones. Take the unusual stone to the Skyrim appraiser Skyrim location on the map of Barenziah stones

Skyrim is one of the latest games in The Elder Scrolls series. An open world with stunning landscapes and a captivating storyline. The huge number of artifacts, monsters and characters amazes the minds of fans of this series.

One of the Thieves Guild quests is “Look under every stone.” To complete this task, the player must complete four points. If one of the unusual stones is found before joining the thieves faction and the character takes it to the buyer Hammer, he will in any case send it to Vex, and she, in turn, to Brynjolf, who will offer to complete tasks for joining the Guild.

There are twenty-four stones, they look like rubies floating in the center of the casket. They are called “Unusual stone”

First step. The player needs to join the Thieves Guild.
Second step. Find an Unusual Stone.

These two points may change places, depending on the situation, but the linearity of the task will not change.

Third step, you need to collect a collection of stones, that is, twenty-four pieces and take them to Vex. And the last point is to find Barenziah’s crown for Vex.

As soon as the player discovers the first stone, the task “Take an unusual stone to an appraiser” is activated. Skyrim is not rich in antique connoisseurs, and the only buyer who will be interested in the find is Vex.

But in order to become the owner of all the strange minerals, the character will have to shed blood and spend a lot of money.

One of the stones is located in the Dark Brotherhood's hideout, in Astrid's room. To get the stone, the hero will have to make a difficult choice. The player must either become a member of this organization or wipe it off the face of the earth. Another of the stones is located in the Archmage's chambers in Winterhold. The player will have to become a member of the College in order to gain access to the monastery of Savos Arena.

The remaining stones can be found during other tasks.

There are only three stones in Whiterun. The hero can find them in the Hall of the Dead, in the Dragon's Reach and in Kodlak's room. There is only one stone in Riften, which is located in the jarl's bedroom, which is located in the Mistvale fortress. At the Thalmor Embassy, ​​one stone lies on the second floor of the building. There are two stones in Solitude. The player can find one of the minerals in the jarl’s chambers in the Blue Palace, the other in the “High Spire”, only if he purchases the estate for a tidy sum.

In Sosnovaya Zastava, it is not easy to find a stone. The relic is located in a house where there is a lair of bandits, which can only be accessed by pressing a secret button. In Windhelm, the hero will find two stones, one in the Royal Palace, the other in the “Shattered Shield”.

Another lost jewel will be found in Khoba Cave in the north. The player will have to look for two stones in Markarth, one is collecting dust in the Treasury, the other in the Understone Fortress. One of the stones is kept on Ingvild. Another one on the Old Woman's Rock. And another one in Divided Gorge.

The remaining six stones can be found in Ansilwund, in the Black Prince estate, on a ship near the Solitude lighthouse, in the Stone Brook cave, in the Fellglow fortress and in the Abode of Rannveig.

When the entire set is collected, the player can safely return to Vex. She will send a hero to restore Barenziah's crown to a place infested with flamers. After the player delivers the artifact to Vex, he will receive the permanent skill “Thief's Luck”, which will have a positive effect on the search for high-value gems.

After receiving the reward, the Skyrim task “Take the unusual stone to the appraiser” will be completed.
