The Gauldur Amulet is an enchanted amulet and is a reward for the quest Forbidden Legend.

Description

The Gauldur Amulet is necklace which grants +30 to health, magicka and stamina. The amulet is obtained by completing the Forbidden Legend quest chain. The quest starts when the player obtains a Gauldur Amulet Fragment, or by reading the book the Lost Legends.

Location

There are three Gauldur Fragments located in three separate dungeons: Saarthal, Folgunthur, and Geirmund's Hall. Each Fragment individually grants +30 to one of the three main stats: Health, Magicka, and Stamina. The fragment in Saarthal can only be found by joining The College of Winterhold and completing the quest Under Saarthal.

After all 3 fragments have been obtained, the player must go to Reachwater Rock to reforge the Amulet, which requires once more defeating the three keepers of the Fragments.

Trivia

Bugs

  • If you equip it first, then subsequently attempt to equip another necklace, both will be equipped. This does not work if you equip a necklace, and then equip The Gauldur Amulet second. When the Gauldur Amulet has any items below it in the 'Apparel' list, you can equip it, then equip two other amulets. The Gauldur Amulet will unequip itself with the two other amulets still equipped. (Currently doesn't work on PS3) (Also, Appears to have been fixed on Xbox 360.)
  • If your character has a large body it will mold into the flesh of the character creating quite a strange look. This, however, is not a common bug.
  • Sometimes the amulet appears invisible on the wearer's body.
  • In Geirmund's Hall sometimes the amulet is gone, in the mini map indicator will appear under water.
  • Some players experience a bug, where they are not able to open the first door in Reachwater. This bug can be fixed by:
    • Reloading a save that occurred just before entering the cave.
    • Reload the game, go in, and go straight to the dead adventurer on the hill. He has a copy of Lost Legends.
    • Read the book, then take it.
    • Re-try the door with the right combination. And the door should open.
