Nordic Barnacle is an ingredient in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It can be used to make potions at an alchemy lab as part of alchemy.

Locations[]

Nordic Barnacles are found almost entirely underwater.

  • 19 Nordic Barnacles on The Silvermoon, a sunken ship in Lake Ilinalta near the Lady Stone, and the surrounding area. The Water Breathing ability helps when searching the wreck, but it is fully possible to obtain everything without it by making repeated short dives. The mast of the ship can be seen above the water's surface from the Lady Stone island.
  • Also in Lake Ilinalta, at least 7 can be found in the Sunken Barrow toward the east end of the lake, opposite the site of Lakeview Manor.
  • Eight in the "moat" under the bridge in Whiterun directly outside of Dragonsreach.
  • Five can be found in the waters around Riften Fishery.
  • Bloated Man's Grotto in the pool under the waterfall.
  • Can be found in the crypts of many Draugr ruins; mostly on the floor.
  • Forelhost in the underground water cave.
  • Can be found under Fellglow Keep in the dungeons.
  • 19 can be found on the wreck Hela's Folly.
  • 10 can be found on the wrecks at Pilgrim's Trench. Waterbreathing potions or an item enchanted with Waterbreathing are recommended.
  • 3 on a wrecked ship at the Horker Island, on the opposite side from Gyldenhul Barrow.
  • 4 are at the entrance to Stony Creek Cave.
  • 15-24 around the lake at Bronze Water Cave.
  • At least two can found in Dead Crone Rock by the water.
  • 4 on an island north of Yngol Barrow. A fifth is due northwest of the eastern most barnacle on the island, across the channel and on a rock on the shoreline.
  • 1 on a islet with lumps of ice, just off the glacier, west of the Wreck of The Winter War.
  • 1 in the Hag Rock Redoubt alchemy lab on a shelf of the cupboard.
  • 2 on the floor of the first passageway in Dead Crone Rock at the foot of the spiral steps.
  • Starting at Solitude Lighthouse and going west along the coast one is directly in front of the building, due east, on a rock in the water.
  • 4 along the base of a cliff before Broken Oar Grotto, just before a horker's location.
  • 4 on an island with a flag on it and a skeleton at the base of the flagpole, the island is due west of Broken Oar Grotto and almost due north of Katla's Farm.
  • 2 on the west face of a slanted rock, approximately due north of Ravenscar Hollow.
  • 3 clustered together on a rock offshore, due north of Widow's Watch Ruins.
  • 1 can be found south southwest of Fort Hraggstad and south by by southeast of Orphan's Tear.
  • 19 can be found at Orphan's Tear along the shore and sides of the boat. One of them is somewhat removed, northeast of the wreck on the north side of a sandbar, in the water.
  • 1 on the shoreline due east of Icewater Jetty and northeast of Northwatch Keep.
  • 2 clustered together by northeast of Northwatch Keep, on a rock face along the shoreline.
  • One is due south of Castle Volkihar and approximately northeast of Mor Kazgur, on the shoreline almost all the way to the World Wall.
