Otar is a dragon priest mask found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Acquisition

This mask can be acquired by defeating the Dragon Priest Otar the Mad in Ragnvald Temple.

Enchantment

Resistance against fire, frost, and shock is improved by 30%:

• Resist Fire: 30 points
• Resist Frost: 30 points
• Resist Shock: 30 points

Usefulness

It can be used to substitute for the Dunmer's and Nord's abilities, although it does not provide offensive bonuses to elemental attacks which are granted by Ahzidal's, Dukaan's and Zahkriisos' masks.

Smithing

It can be upgraded with an refined malachite ingot at a workbench, and also benefits from the Daedric Smithing perk, which doubles the improvement.

•  PC   360   PS3   When equipping a mask and the Archmage's Robes together; both the mask and the Dragonborn's entire head may disappear, showing only an empty hood.

  • Another fix is to store the mask in a container and then equip it directly from the container.
  •  PC (fix)   This can be temporarily fixed by pressing F5, quicksave, and then F9, quick load.
  •  360 (fix)   Clearing the Xbox 360 cache will also correct this issue.
  •  PS3 (fix)   PS3 users can also temporarily fix this by saving and loading.
•  PC   360   PS3   It is possible to equip this item while wearing a Falmer Helmet, Ancient Shrouded Cowl, the Jagged Crown and circlets.
•  PC   360   PS3   If any mask is given to any follower, over time it may disappear from their inventory.
