If you used to play The Elder Scrolls games, then remember that at the start you were given the opportunity to choose a constellation that gave bonuses throughout the game. But this rule is absolutely not applicable to computer fun called Skyrim. Signs, or stones of constellations, are scattered throughout the vast map. Moreover, there are no specific indications of where to look for them. In this small guide you will find out where the signs are located, as well as what bonuses each of them gives.
Skyrim: Guardian Marks
Before you go in search of a particular stone, you should understand that you can get only one bonus from the constellations. That is, if you want to change the sign, have an increase from it, then the previous one will cease to act. But thanks to the quick movement, you can always return to a particular stone and activate a bonus from it. This will help to increase some of the testimonies in Skyrim.
The guardian signs, which can be found at the very beginning of the journey, are located on the banks of the river, near the road from Helgen to Riverwood. Three stones are standing here at once. But you can only activate one of them at a time. Therefore, before deciding on a choice, study bonuses from everyone.
Bonuses from stones
The Thief Badge improves such skills as light armor, hacking, pickpocketing, stealth, eloquence, and alchemy by 20%. The Warrior's Guardian Stone provides a 20% increase in the growth of the following abilities: one-handed and two-handed weapons, shooting, wearing heavy armor, blacksmithing and blocking. The Sign of the Magician increases the speed of learning such skills as destruction, enchantment, restoration, witchcraft, illusion and change by 20%.
Before you activate the stone, think about which path you want to choose. For example, if you are trying to achieve success in the military business, then select the Warrior stone. And if you like spells and the subtle world of magic, then bet on the sign of the Magician.
Skyrim Lover's stone
This sign is an excellent alternative to the previous ones, because thanks to it you can learn all the skills and abilities at once. But, instead of a bonus of 20%, the gain in experience will be equal to 15%. You can find this stone northeast of the city of Markart.
Student sign
You can find this stone in the swamps of Hjalmark, between Solitude and Morphal. This sign increases the speed of magic recovery by 50%. But at the same time, he makes the hero vulnerable to enemy spells. So it’s better to activate it for magicians who have seriously enough pumped skills of reflection and resistance.
Sign of Atronach
You can find this stone in the tundra of Eastmark, northwest of the Mist Outpost and a little south of the Skeleton Ridge. When the character is activated, the hero’s supply of magic increases by 50 units, and the ability to absorb magic damage increases by 50%. The negative effect of the stone is a half reduction in the speed of magic recovery.
The sign of the tower and the snake
You can find the stone of the Tower at the top of the mountain, located between Winterhold and Dunstar, in the north of the Khob cave and to the west of the College. Upon activation, the hero will be able to open the castle of any difficulty once per game day. At the same time, the stone of the Snake makes it possible to paralyze one enemy for 5 seconds once in knocks and inflict 25 damage to it. The sign is located northeast of the crash site of the Pride of Tel Vos and east of Winterhold.
Horse Sign
This stone increases your carrying capacity by 100 units. In addition, it allows you to quickly move in heavy armor even without the pumped-up skill “Hard Training”. You can find this sign to the west of Solitude. You need to go a little north from the quest cave "Wolf Skull."
Other signs
The Lady’s sign, upon activation, increases the speed of restoring strength and health by 25%. The stone is located near Folkrit, a little south of the location "Depths of Illinalta." Stone of the Lord gives an increase of 25% to magic resistance. In addition, it increases damage protection (armor) by 50%. This sign stands on a mountain southwest of Dunstar, east of Morphal.
Having activated the stone of the Ritual, the hero will be able once a day to raise all the dead to his defense. You can find it east of Whiterun, on the way to Windhelm. The Shadow sign allows the hero to remain invisible once a day for 60 seconds. You can find it in the south of Riften - one of the main cities. Remember that in the game "Skyrim" signs are the easiest way to get some bonuses that will be useful in passing the game. So you should definitely start looking for them.
