Ancient Technology

Enhanced Crossbow Schematics and Exploding Bolts

 * 1) Obtain first Enhanced Crossbow Schematic from a radiant location
 * 2) Obtain Dwemer Exploding Fire Bolt Schematic from a radiant location
 * 3) Obtain Dwemer Exploding Ice Bolt Schematic from a radiant location
 * 4) Obtain Dwemer Exploding Shock Bolt Schematic from a radiant location
 * 5) Obtain third Dwarven Crossbow Schematic from a radiant location
 * 6) Sorine Jurard will send the Dragonborn to retreive the Enhanced Crossbow Schematic from Kagrenzel or Stony Creek Cave. The schematic may appear in either a chest within Stony Creek Cave, past where the Kajiit bandit is, or within a Falmer chest at the end of Kagrenzel. If the schematic is found within Stony Creek Cave then there is no need to venture into Kagrenzel. If the schematic is not there, the Falmer chest is reachable through Stony Creek Cave by climbing up the rocks opposite the waterfall and Whirlwind Sprinting across the chamber. The player will land on the lip of the waterfall, a simple jump forward completing the manuever. The schematic can then be found in a dark grey Falmer chest just within after the access way for Kagrenzel, on the left hand side.

When returned, she'll reward the Dragonborn with a leveled apparel item. After completion of Ancient Technology, the Dwarven Crossbow is able to be created in a forge (5 Dwarven Metal Ingots, +10 base damage versus Enhanced Crossbow).

Bugs

 * The questmarker will point towards Stony Creek Cave instead of Kagrenzel. Even inside Kagrenzel, the questmarker will point outside.
 * Entering Stony Creek Cave from the Kagrenzel side, and then return to Kagrenzel, will correct the questmarker.
 * (360) For unknown reasons, the schematic may appear in a chest within a chamber just off of the main path inside Stony Creek Cave, not in the Falmer chest at the end (or beginning) of Kagrenzel. This may be a result of entering Kagrenzel by Whirlwind Sprinting through the waterfall in Stony Creek, finding the Falmer chest empty and then returning to Stony Creek.
