More recently, Skyrim was released. This game has a lot of new features and, accordingly, many new items. They are literally teeming with the entire Skyrim game. Barenziah stones are stones that will need to be collected according to one of the game quests.
What it is?
Once these stones adorned the legendary crown of Barenziah, Queen of Mornhold, but once they were removed from there.
Over time, of course, they were at a loss throughout Skyrim. In total, 24 stones framed the crown. Only all items gathered together can awaken the power of the legendary magic crown in the world of Skyrim. Where are the stones of Barenziah, is still unknown. They can be anywhere and from anyone! Only a true hero can put them together and comprehend the full power of magic.
When you need
Walking along Skyrim, players can discover the "Fancy Stone". Externally, this item is a small box of gold color, inside of which lies a red crystal. Raising it, the player will not be able to throw out the box. As it turns out later, the find is a mystical stone of Barenziah.
After a player picks up at least one such trophy, he will be able to start the quest “Look under every stone”. It will be necessary to collect the stones of Barenziah in it. "Skyrim" will give the player the opportunity to be a real treasure hunter! After all, it is precisely 24 magic stones that are well hidden.
But before the quest begins, one condition must be met. The character of the game should be in the Thieves Guild and talk with Veks, who will tell you that “Unusual Stone” is of no value, but if you collect 24 pieces, they can be sold for a pretty amount.
After that, the stone is renamed to "Barenziah Stone". It is important to note that in Skyrim the stones of Barenziah are not marked on the map in any way, the quest for them is the same. Therefore, be careful.
Known bugs
As with any program, bugs exist in the Skyrim game. Barenziah stones are a favorite subject of all kinds of problems. Now we’ll tell you how to complete the quest “Look under every stone” so as not to run into certain unpleasant moments (which we will also talk about).
So, in order to start the quest, the character, as mentioned above, must be a member of the Thieves Guild. There are no restrictions on exactly when you step into it. In order to avoid unnecessary problems in the game, we recommend you join the thieves as soon as possible. There are several reasons for this. The first is a bug, the second - in some places you will need a high level of theft to get the coveted trophy.
During the game, one non-dangerous glitch can happen. Stones will not fit in the same slot after being picked up. It will bring you nothing but inconvenience. It happens after you talk with Veks, provided that you have several stones. Therefore, if you have collected a couple of unusual trophies, you can search for them a little more, and then talk with Veks.
A very important point is that you do not need to talk to a girl from the Thieves Guild if you already have all 24 stones. In this case, a bug will surely happen, because of which it will not be possible to complete the quest.
If the game lags strongly, then if you have time to press the item raising key several times, then only one Barenziah stone will be added to the inventory, and several will go to the quest. Completing the mission issued by the Thieves Guild will be easier.
If you use the console commands for the quest, you can run into the fact that after collecting all 24 stones, Veks will not be able to give you the continuation of the chain in which you will need to get the crown of Barenziah.
How to solve problems
Of course, the game develops best when there are no problems with it. But if you stumbled upon one or another bug, you are given the opportunity to play a little with the Skyrim console. Stones of Barenziah can be easily "filled up". In order to do this, you need to know some basics of using the console in the game. But if you don’t want to understand for a long time what and how to do it, how and what works, then just type in the search phrase: “Skyrim. Barenzia stones code”. Upon this request, a long console command will open for your attention, which contains the id-number of the item called "Barenziah Stone" and the function of adding it to the inventory. In such a tricky way, you can finish the quest without leaving the box office.
But now let's talk a bit about solving game bugs. As mentioned earlier, there may be a problem with the impossibility of completing the quest, if you have 24 Barenzia stones, and you just decided to talk with Veks. To do this, call the console and write two commands in it:
- setobjectivecompleted TGCrown 20 1
- setstage TGCrown 30
If you can’t take the girl’s task to continue the quest (search for Barenziah’s crown, which is usually not accessible after adding all 24 stones to the inventory), you can only start it manually using the console command: setstage TGCrown 40.
Where to find stones
As already mentioned, in "Skyrim" the stones of Barenziah are hidden absolutely all over the map. But where to find them? Now we will tell you where you can find several stones. We will not open the curtain completely - then the quest will become uninteresting.
1. Whiterun. In the hall of the Dead, at the end of the catacombs.
2. In the room of the Jarl in Dragon's Edge in Whiterun.
3. In the room of Kodlak, in Whiterun.
4. In Solitude, in the house "The High Spire.
5. In the room of the jarl in Solitude.
6. Mistvale Fortress, Jarl's Room.
7. At the Clan House Shattered Shield.
Look for other stones near the Talmor kingdom, Riften, Solitude, Whiterun and in caves. Search every corner of the virtual world, and soon you will succeed! For the query "Skyrim stones of Barenziah on the map" we found the following picture. She will definitely help you in your search!
The final stage
As a matter of fact, when all 24 Barenziah stones are in your pocket, you can finish the quest. To do this, go to the Thieves Guild, to Vex. Talk to her again. It will give you a continuation - the search for the crown of Barenziah (well, of course, there are stones, but where to put them in is not). After the decoration is reassembled, it will give you a bonus and decorate the guild building.
