Alteration Master TrainingEdit
|
Quick WalkthroughEdit
- Once you have an Alteration skill of 70, speak with Abhuki at the Faregyl Inn or Athragar at the Chorrol Mages Guild to learn who can train you further.
- When you have acquired the recommendation, speak with Tooth-in-the-Sea for master training in Alteration.
- Prove yourself worthy of master training by surviving 3 hours underwater.
Detailed WalkthroughEdit
Ready for more?Edit
Once you have leveled up your Alteration skill to 70, head to the Faregyl Inn, located north-west of the Inn of Ill Omen, or to the Chorrol Mages Guild and ask to either the khajiit publican Abhuki or the bosmer spell seller Athragar about further traing in Alteration. They will tell you that the only one that can train you even more is Tooth-in-the-Sea, an argonian who enjoys swimming in the waters of the Niben Bay.
Searching in Niben BayEdit
Tooth-in-the-Sea can be found north of the city of Bravil in the coast of Niben Bay, his encampment can be found slightly east of the Flooded Mine. He will only give you his challenge while he is swimming in Niben Bay and before 1pm, otherwise he will only tell you to wait until he has placed in his favorite spot. Once you have spoken with him, he will let you now what you require to prove you are worthy of his training.
The TestEdit
You need to stay underwater for three hours in-game (about six minutes in player time) without wandering too far away from him. There are several ways to acomplish this:
- Create a custom Water Breathing spell or purchase one from Trayvond the Redguard at the Cheydinhal Mages Guild, Ungarion at A Warlock's Luck in Bravil or Edgar Vautrine at Edgar's Discount Spells in the Market District of the Imperial City.
- Create a custom potion with alchemichal ingredients. Note that without that without a master level in Alchemy you will need al least two ingredients with Water Breathing as a common effect to create a potion.
- Wearing an item with a Water Breathing effect. Three such items that can be easily obtained are Fin Gleam, the Jewel of the Rumare, and Nistor's Boots.
- Argonians have Water Breathing as a racial ability and thus they don't need to take measures to stay underwater.
Once three hours have passed, Tooth-in-the-Sea will happily agree to train you further in the Alteration skill.
BugsEdit
- Like Torbern, Alawen, and Bralsa Andaren, if Tooth-in-the-Sea dies before beginning his Master Training quest, the quest can be obtained but not completed, and will stay active.
- This bug is fixed by the Unofficial Oblivion Patch.

- Notes
- Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
- Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in random order.
- If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
- It is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering
setstage 0003C165 stage
, wherestage
is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages. See SetStage for more information.
