Skyrim talk:Hela's Folly

helm location?

does anyone see where the helm of winterhold is in this ship? I've checked both halves and just don't see it. — Unsigned comment by 99.95.129.138 (talk) at 08:46 on 00:20, 31 January 2012

I don't know about this location in particular, but in the two dungeons I've been sent to to get the Helm it was in a chest both times. Darksquirrels 06:45, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

If I recall correctly (found it here on a previous character, two playthroughs ago), it's not actually on the ship itself but in a chest at the camp nearby. There is an Argonian sleeping nearby and taking from the chest is considered stealing, but it doesn't affect the quest to do so and return it to the Jarl of Winterhold as long as the theft isn't witnessed.

I just did the quest and Deekus was wide awake and watching over his goods. When I took the Helm he came over and blustered ineffectually--"Get away from there!"--but did nothing. The Jarl didn't care that it was stolen and made me Thane on the spot. Wyldebill 23:03, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Other radiant quests

You can be sent here by other radiant quests as well - Urag sent me here for his book retrieval quest. The target was in the chest owned by Deekus, so that is likely marked as the "boss chest" for the location, rather than a specific thing for the helm of winterhold quest.

Thanks, I've added a note. —⁠Legoless (talk) 12:09, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
