Daily Quests

Solitude

In Solitude, the daily delve, world boss, and Harrowstorm quest givers do not need to be unlocked. You can get some easy gold by reading the job poster on the south side of the Solitude Wayshrine retaining wall to talk nearby Money Lender.

DELVES

Located in Solitude a short walk south of the wayshrine, Tinzen awaits to give you a daily delve quest.

4 Delves are in Western Skyrim
2 Delves are below in the caverns

Tip:
the delve quests can be solo’ed, but most can be completed much faster in a group of two or three. If you have invisibility ability and / or a snare purge, you can just walk / run past the most of the mobs in the dungeons.

  1. Spiritual Release: Smash the urns and observe how the freed spirits react.
    Note: Best done in a group. Split up the group and go to different urn locations. All members will get quest advances by the others actions.
  2. Precious Bark (Shadowgreen): Gather Spriggan Bark (3)
    Note: This is the fastest quest when done in a group. You can find bark in three locations but also on any Spriggan in the delve. Since each member can loot a killed Spriggan, killing Spriggans is the fastest method to complete quest. If you have a group of three, the group would just need to kill one Spriggan.
  3. The Strength of Giants: Gather Snowberries (3) along the Frozen Coast
    Notes: Stay out of the frigid water to avoid damage.
  4. A Trail Gone Cold (Chillwind Depths): Enter Chillwind Depths and search for any tribal artifacts.
  5. The Preservation of Life (Dragonhome): Find Preserved Organs (3)
    Note: Best done in a group. Split up the group and go to different urn locations. All members will get quest advances by the others actions.
  6. Dwemer Disassembly (The Scraps): Use the Dissonance Apparatus on Dwarven Constructs (10) and find Heartcog
    Note: To advance the quest, each group member must use the apparatus to advance their quest. However, the apparatus has a cooldown of 10 seconds. By healing and doing little damage, you can keep using the apparatus on the same dwemer over and over again by waiting 10 seconds.
