Once it's activated, it opens a stairway underneath the mountain to a place called Blackreach. I've just started this today, but as far as I know it's pretty elaborate.
Since Im getting questions daily on my previous comment. My previous comment warned people not to go to the cave and talk to the guy too early. The main story quest will send you there eventually anyhow. If you go there too early it will simply skip some of the story. it will not screw it up. Ive finished the game on 2 different characters one i skipped main story by doing this part early. the other my character got sent to this cave anyhow later on.
@BIGCHTR Some Black giant power ball appears and you can choose to join him and betray that wizard or tell him to gtfo, when you open it, wizard dies cause he touches the mysterious book. He just becomes an ash pile, then the giant evil black ball guy appears again and you can join him up. Well that's what I did. Fuck the old guy
i cleand whole place and then i received key. When i returned to raldbthar the bridge was once again closed, cogs jammed but there weren't bones anymore so i couldn't unblock them this time. I'm really pissed off couse i can't get to the mechanism. does anyone have same problem?
@eFaKaUdwa That's a bad bug from Skyrim. If you cleared Raldbthar all the way through and used the last exit in the ruin then the whole dungeon resets. Tthe bones are supposed to be there for the reset as well, but since it's a bad bug then I don't know what you can do about it. I exited the dungeon by walking all the way back to the entrance since my friend warned me about it lol.
@wtbriann many thanks for fast answer, still it's pretty annoying. On the other hand it's good reason to play once again :) i've managed to get to the upper exit through the rocks next to the main enternance (i've almost freaked out doin this) but the gate was closed too facepalm :)
@wtbriann Glad i read your comment :D i'm at the mechanism now and if what you say is true, i will walk back so the bridge doesn't get reset :) I'm level 54 and only done 3 main line quests, so i guess i'm pretty far behind to opening these mechanisms :D
Holy fuck, you should REALLY change your Field of view to 85. The way you have it now is horrible, feels like walking around looking thrue a sniper scope.
@faction60 useful vid but could you tell me what dwarven ruin you tested it in? Its the exact one i was in and i didnt have a clue how to open it at the time but now i do and iv only gone and forgotten where it is and what it is called lol thank you :)
Glitch: After the quest read the book then drop it without closing your inventory. You can pick it up again (when it should have disappeared). Pick it up again, put it on a book shelf in your house. Tell a friend to pick it up, take it from them and you can read it again. Rinse and repeat for infinite skill level ups.
@Toddyboy1980 Then dont listen to him you shallow cunt. You came here for a reason cause you cant find it on your own. But coming from a person whose name is toddyboy I exprct nothing less.
@Toddyboy1980 Some dialects just sound this way, I guarantee all his local friends and family talk the same way. I don't find it annoying though *shrugs*
WARNING!!! if you do this too early on in the Main quest line you risk skipping a large portion of the main quest line. You will come to this part during the main quest line eventually.
@musicmaker2 I went through the Mzinchaleft ruins and beat the big machine at the end. So now your saying that's going to take a big chunk out of the main quest for me? Why would they even let you explore the ruins if it screws up the main quest? Sounds really stupid to me.
No im saying if you go into the guys cave north of winterhold and complete his quest it will skip a SMALL section of the main story quest. You will be able to continue from a later point in the main quest. It has nothing to do with the Mzin ruins. It has to do with going into the cave north of winterhold and talking to the guy.
@musicmaker2 That is very good to know since my lvl 54 char has done so...so that means i want be able to complete quest in between...all for the sake of that Oghma Infinitum which I still don't have. Being a vampire and running to and fro to feed from this massive dungeon within dungeons!
@musicmaker2 which quest is actually the "main" quest...and how long into it do you have to wait to be able to open the Dwarven Mechanisms? I saw the fiance underground with all the glowing mushrooms and blue-ness, and want to visit it for myself :-) Getting anxious :-P But if I shouldn't do it the way this guy's showing us...curious how long I'll have to wait. Thanks.
Uh i havnt played skyrim in a couple months but just keep doing the main quest untill AFTER the part where you get sent to talk to a guy in winterhold mage college. the guy in the mage college will send you to talk to the guy in the cave at some point. then your in the clear.
*Facepalm* I went in this dungeon after I did the Dark Brotherhood mission that is in it, exploring... and found Machines in an Elder Scrolls game. Wasn't expecting that.
Especially the... ten foot tall... terminator-like machine near the end... O_o
Oh well, at least when I go back with the key, it will be empty!
Thanks, I was curious how to activate those...also it's cool how for your demonstration you used Mzinchaleft I was in there and saw the mechanism and the gated door and was thinking WTF! Lol
be careful not to talk to this guy if you've hardly started the main quest line, it will ruin a lot of shit for you, and it might bug up the game, which i almost did.
