Skyrim where to find yngol

However, that will not start a second quest, and returning to the barrow at that point shows things are exactly as they were left. I passed the puzzle room with the snake in the grass, whale in the water, and eagle in the sun thingy. If you go to the barrow before going to see Birna, is should be in the barrow. However, if you go to Birna first and do not take the claw once offered [e.

In order to obtain it from Birna in the first place, you have to ask her if she has ever had a bad deal in her business:. If you ask her if she has ever had a bad deal after asking about her business, she will explain how she came to possess a seemingly useless dragon claw.

If you didn't take the claw from Birna, after it was offered it will not be on the pedestal either. Once you've offered to buy the coral dragon claw from Birna even if you didn't actually do so , the one on the pedestal in Yngol Barrow will disappear.

It seems to me that what most likely happened, if it's not in the barrow, is that somehow you missed the chance to purchase it from Birna when you spoke to her. That means that you either have to go back to an earlier save or forego the quest. You could always go back to Birna and go through all dialogue options with her and see if you missed the offer, of course looking for the option about the bad deal.

In the room with the bridge over shallow water, there is a chest and a burial urn under the water on the left hand side.

The Dragonborn will come across the corpse of a scholar and a pillar puzzle early in the dungeon. The scholar's corpse contains a book titled Notes on Yngol Barrow.

There is a bug that prevents completing the dungeon, while not hampering the quest for retrival of the helm, where instead of the ghostly form of Yngol after whom the Barrow is named you will face a powerful Draugr instead. The Helm of Winterholt will thus be found in the chest in front of the throne in the last room, instead of looted from the head of Yngol's Skeleton.
