Other locations where you can find clay deposits in Skyrim:īleakwind Basin: Go west of Whiterun until you get to the mammoth skull icon in the map.
Look for the Old Hroldan Inn and go southeast, there should be a clay deposit somewhere near the river. There should be a clay deposit on one of the banks. Along the river bank south of Niflheim. Along the western river bank of Karthspire is another clay deposit. There should be a clay deposit around it. Look for a crashed boat along the river bank filled with mead and gems. Between Reachwater Rock and Skyhaven Temple. Along a river bank between Sky Haven Temple and Reachwater Rock, near a crashed boat filled with mead and gems. These locations can be mined using a pickaxe, with each deposit yielding 4000 units of clay before being depleted. One of the most prolific building materials in the game, there are tons of clay deposits all around Skyrim in fact, there are a number of ‘clay deposits’ found in the game map. “Natural” building materials are items that can be encountered in the wild, either as a found item or as a loot from monsters. A quick note, though: Glass the building material is entirely different from Glass Armor and weapons, which means you can’t make Glass for building from refined malachite or malachite ore in the same way you use the latter things for glass armor and weapons. It can also be found as random loot sometimes. Just go to any town, and it should be with any of the stores.Īnother buyable material, Glass is necessary for the creation of these items:Īgain, like most ‘bought’ materials, Glass can found in general goods stores and most Khajit merchants. Seriously, you can find it in any General Goods store within Skyrim. Straw is one of the easiest materials to find in Skyrim, which is why it’s weird that it’s also one of the most sought-after materials from newbies. Straw is used to construct a number of items, including: Users playing Khajit ( Skyrim‘s best race for trading and discounts!) can buy these items at a lower price than most, so choose carefully! “Bought” building materials are materials that can be bought in most shops and from most traders. We’ve broken down materials into three categories:Įach material class has its own unique locations and can be used for various building purposes. Back in my day, we just had to guess: who knew Giants weren’t friendly and could send you into space?Īnyway, here’s a quick materials guide for all the new Hearthfire players out there. Of course, newer players have the advantage of reading through guides like these for hard-to-find materials (like, seriously, where do you get straws in Skyrim?!), monster directories, and whatever else. Skyrim and its DLCs are almost a decade old, but they’re still enjoying critical acclaim, a sizable modding community, and surprisingly, new players. I guess chasing dragons gets tiring after a while? Source: The Elder Scrolls Wiki In fact, most criticism was aimed at it not being enough of a Sims aspect. That being said, it was interesting enough to get people’s attention.
Basically, people weren’t super happy with purchasing mostly pre-rendered stuff. Sure, there was some criticism aimed at the slightly restrictive building options and the lack of creative input from the player.
Just a sim aspect that, at first glance, seems completely out of place and something players wouldn’t appreciate.īut Hearthfire defied most expectations players actually were interested in all the things the DLC promised. No extra plots, no new enemies, no new game mechanics (ehh, sort of you do have to earn the respect of a Jark if you want to buy land, but this isn’t exactly new new, y’know?), no new dragons. Instead, Hearthfire added a The Sims-esque element to the game by allowing players to purchase land, build a home, and raise a family (albeit having children via adoption). In 2012, Skyrim released an expansion pack called Hearthfire, a DLC that fans *thought* was going to be a follow-up to the critically acclaimed Dawnguard DLC.
