Head down the path and speak with the spirit ahead, who will in turn point you towards the Hall of Valor. Travel through the mists, but be careful: Alduin is hiding about and flying around and could possibly strike if you're too hasty. Your goal is straight down the path and a little to the west. Here, talk to Tsun and tell him of your plans. He will only let you enter the hall if you pass a test of strength in one-on-one combat. You don't need to deplete much of his health to win. In fact, using just fire breaths boosted with fus was enough to make the guard yield.
Once Tsun grants you access, cross the bridge and head into the hall. Speak you to Ysgramor and he will point you towards the heroes who banished Alduin so long ago. Speak with Gormlaith, Felldir, and Hakon. They will head outside and ready themsleves for the final fight. Follow them outside and back into the mist. Use Clear Skies three times as they instruct and the final battle with Alduin will start.
Gromlaith is about the only range support you have, so consider switching to magic, archery, or simply summon more help via magic. Your main job though is to use Dragonrend shout to bring Alduin to the ground. Once the dragon lord is down on the ground both Felldir and Hakon will deal a large amount of damage with their two handed weapons. Let Hakon tank Alduin while you attack from the rear. Alduin can switch elements, but mostly sticks to fire based spells. Have plenty of resist and healing to stay at high health throughout the fight. With this being four-on-one things should be over shortly.
Talk to Tsun and he will teach you Call Valor. This shout will let you summon heroes to your side for a short amount of time. A weak shout will bring Gromlaith, a medium shout for Felldir, and a maximum shout for Hakon. Request to return to Skyrim once you're satisfied. Congratulations, you've completed the main storyline of The Elder Scrolls 5 Skyrim. As a bonus you can now summon Odhaviing with the Call Dragon shout anything you're outside. This will make future side quests much easier. Speaking of side quests, there is still plenty to explore in the massive country of Skyrim.

Kurtis Seid is a sadomasochist for games. He’s clocked over 200 days in a Final Fantasy entry but isn’t sure if he’s actually a fan of the series. His ideal game would somehow involve the harshest elements of King’s Quest, Team Fortress, River City Ransom, Ogre Battle, and Dark Souls.

1 Like i completed all this after playing skyrim for 1 month and i had full steel plate amour and orcish greatsword it was epic i completed in level 13 and 9786 gold hehe
i am a werewolf, and happy with that, but in dawngaurd, i am offered to be a powerful vampire, is it really that much power? also, i see wings, will i be able to fly? anybody know please respond
There is so much to do in this awesome game "The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim" a good Walkthrough is always welcome.
Okay so, I don't know if anyone's answered this or not, but.... If the whole point of this scene is to go through all this sh*t & get fighting experience, then discover the horn ISN'T actually there and you actually have to go to Riverwood to retrieve it....
Can't you just skip this scene altogether and just go right on over to Riverwood? Or is something crucial supposed to happen (besides loot stuff & fighting skills) that you cannot miss?
Just someone please tell me if I can skip it & just go to Riverwood, or if I HAVE to complete this part.
1 Like Start a new character and in the first house that you can get your first weapons, the NPC that helps you, waits for you to take a key from 1 dead soldier and open the door..... DONT open the door, go in sneak/stealth mode and backstab him as much as you want.... He does NOT die..... I left there with 44 level 1 handed weapons and 100 level sneak. Character level about 18. I could wait more to get 1 handed weapons in 100 but i got bored..... ^^
+It's only 50 gold to get to Solitude from Whiterun, and if u don't have 50 gold, then u r spending waaaaayy too much, and only doing the main quest
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there meant to be a word wall in this dungeon? This guide misses out on the shout so I was just wondering if this is a foolish mistake or what?
How do you put spells or souls into your weapons? I just started playing the game, and all the stuff that can be done is a little overwhelming.
@YariStar find an enchanting table, there you can break enchanted weapons or clothes or jewelry etc. you break these items to learn the spell, after a spell is learned you can use the table to enchant you own belongings, as long as you have filled soul gems, the bigger the soul gem the more powerful the spell will be. to fill soul gems you need a soul trap spell or a weapon with soul trap capabilities, the bigger the creature the bigger the soul.
how do you get through the gates that open when the stones are walked near by... all my gates were open n i whirlwinded through them but i couldn't go through the gates???
@emily_bown you should have a shout called whirlwind sprint, use it as soon as the gates open.
how do you et through the 3 gated.... they were all open but my it wont le me walk through them???
Do you have to finish the main quests before going to side quests? or is it just better to finish them first?
@lolgamer73 No, you can finish the main quest and do the sidequests if you want. I always do sidequests first before finishing the main story. It's up to you. Not sure if there are any missable sidequests for completing the main quest first.
OK, don't laugh, please. but I can't figure out how to use the PS3 controls to take and then equip objects. Some of them just "follow" me and I don't know how to pick them up. Some of them make it to my inventory but some don't. What buttons do I push to get this stuff? Before you think I'm stupid, I'm not, I'm just a LittleOldLadyGamer that hasn't forgotten her inner child :)
@lolgamer73 You can't equip objects. Only weapons, armor, rings and necklaces. You can pick up objects by pressing X or drag them around by clicking R3.
Hi guys, I just got Skyrim yesterday and it's a cool game but I seem to be stuck at one section in the golden claw part and it's annoying the hell out of me! When I get to the chest at the end of the tunnel where I've slashed up all the undead dudes and got past the spike door and the swinging blades I pull that chain that opens the iron gate over the stream and then I can only go a few meters into the cave and I get blocked by a heaps of rocks in the way that wont let me go any further. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there something that I've missed that makes the game do that? Any help would be awesome! Cheers.
where can i find and enchanted armor, or apparel item ; boots , necklace,shield ; etc. enchanted with firewalker that i can break. my character is a vampire, and i need fire resistance on my armor.
@jolene26 just enchant your own armor, you have to disenchant something with the effect first(to learn it), your skills will improve, as will your enchantment, the more you use the enchantment tables.
@jolene26 sorry i didnt read you question properly, there is a theft merchant at the college of winterhold that had a necklace that had 30% fire resistance, hope that helps
im stuck in Saarthal in the chamer with 6 stones that have a snake, eagle, and fish on it...what order do they go in???
Doing "In My Time of Need" quest where I need to talk to Alik'r prisoner in jail. Apparently need to unlock the jail cell in order to talk to the prisoner. I have pickpocketed 4 jail keys from guards, but at cell door I keep getting the message that I need a key. What am I overlooking or doing wrong?
@Thandorblix You don't need to steal any key. Just go over to his cell and wait for him to come over then you can talk to him.
Who the Hell is Drelas and why is he trying to kill me?!? I'm quite a way into the game and don't remember how I might have slighted this fellow, but he surely wants me dead and I can't figure out why.
@Lantazan Drelas is a wizard who has a cottage and if you find him, he tries to kill you with magicka powers. If you kill him though, you inherit his cottage. If there are things that still say "steal," which they shouldn't, unless he's still alive. I was stumbling around and came across his cottage and he tried to kill me, so I zapped him dead with my shout of fire. I instantly got his cottage. You will officially have another home.
.......maybe because I just went busting into his house on a rainy afternoon, but I remember that guy's name from somewhere and the quest log has no record.
im in ustengrav depths [the horn of jurgen windcaller ] im stuck can't get through the gates help 2 hr trying
1 Like in the beginning of the game I am just sitting there do i have to press something or is it automatic PLZ SOMEONE HELP VERY FRUSTRATED
1 Like @nbarocks123 Just wait for the opening scene to finish...then you'll be able to make your character...damn are people this bad at games now?
I'm stuck on a side quest for words of power. The area that is stoping me is a riddle of sorts from "the four totums" or something like that. the door I need to go through is locked and the only way to get to the other side tis to solve the riddle. The totums must be activated in order. Each totum has an animal on it's face.
The animals are as follows: Fox, Wolf, Bear, and Snake. (Not Nessessarily in that Order).
The Riddle goes something like this: The first fears all: the Second fears none. The third will eat the first and the forth when allone fears the second. Again I'm not positive agout the exact wording but this ai all I have. Could someone please give me the correct order for this riddle.
Thanks, Game_Bastard
