Acquiring the Skeleton Key is not overly complicated, but players must follow specific steps to obtain this treasure that enhances their adventures. Whether facing daunting locks or opening coveted chests, the Skeleton Key guarantees ease of access in various gameplay scenarios.
How to Obtain the Skeleton Key in Oblivion Remastered
To secure the Skeleton Key, players must first reach a minimum of Level 10. Subsequently, they should embark on the Nocturnal quest by visiting the Shrine of Nocturnal, located along the northern road leading from Leyawiin. At the shrine, players will interact with the stone representation of Nocturnal, who will guide them toward locating the Eye of Nocturnal.
Next, players should navigate to Leyawiin and locate Weebam-Na’s House, which is situated centrally in the town. Stealth is crucial during this phase, as players must eavesdrop on a conversation between Weebam-Na and Bejeen, two Argonian characters. Should they fail to overhear the dialogue, stepping outside and waiting a few hours allows for another attempt at this critical listening task. Successfully gathering information will reveal that the Eye of Nocturnal resides in Tidewater Cave.
Located to the southern part of Leyawiin, near Topol Bay, Tidewater Cave is where players encounter aggressive creatures such as a Kalperklan Troll and a Dire Wolf. Once inside, they need to take the first left and then the next left to dive into the water and retrieve the Eye of Nocturnal from the submerged cave.
After retrieving the Eye of Nocturnal, it’s time to return to the Shrine of Nocturnal. By interacting with the statue once again, players will be rewarded with the Skeleton Key, a permanent addition to their collection that will simplify their journey in Oblivion Remastered.
