This is the final quest in the the Companions questline and is a radiant quest. To complete it, the Dragonborn must kill the dragon at a randomized dragon lair.
Usefulness
This quest is beneficial for would-be crafters of Dragon Armor, since the resources dropped by these dragons are abundant and the quests can be completed multiple times successively.
Walkthrough
Either Farkas or Vilkas says that a dragon is terrorizing a nearby Hold. The exact details are scarce, but this would be a glorious victory and would help keep the citizens of Skyrim safe. Instructions on the whereabouts of the dragon lair are given.
Walk the path to the dragon's location. The quest giver accompanies the Dragonborn as a Shield-Brother. Begin combat with the dragon, defeat it, and absorb its soul.
Talk to the quest giver. Farkas or Vilkas are impressed by the Dragonborn's dragon slaying abilities and comments on what a fine battle it was. They may choose not to return to Whiterun, but rather stay behind to examine the dragon skeleton further.

Bugs
This section contains bugs related to Dragon Seekers. Before adding a bug to this list, consider the following:
|
- PC 360 PS3 Dragon Souls may not be absorbed upon killing the dragons.
- PC (Fix) type
setstage CR14 100
into the console, thus force-completing the quest. Return to the quest giver and restart the quest.
- PC (Fix) type
- PC The location of the dragon lair may be inaccessible, causing the game to crash.
- 360 Farkas may repeatedly initiate dialogue with the Dragonborn, making it impossible to defeat the dragon. This is caused by having a bounty in any hold. This bug is fixed by paying off any bounties or serving the time in Jail.
- If sent to kill a dragon that is also marked as a current bounty quest, the bounty quest will override the "Dragon Seekers" quest and will not be completable, leaving Farkas or Vilkas as a permanent follower with no other dialogue options aside from training.
