[edit] Uncharted Territory

I stumbled upon this cave on the way to the Mehrune's Razor location. I find it curious that I didn't get the find message. I walked the perimeter and entered the door. Still not showing on my map. Are there many places like this or have I run into a bug?--OGRastamon 00:57, 23 November 2006 (EST)

Any chance you discovered the second entrance to Swampy Cave (in which case the door would say "Wood Door to Swampy Cave Dry Rock Run" instead of "Wood Door to Swampy Cave")? The second entrance does not give you a "find" message and does not have a map marker that shows up on the map (this is generally true for second entrances to caves). --Nephele 00:33, 24 November 2006 (EST)

[edit] Detect Life Helm?

When exactly is the type decided? --Debatra 20:00, 10 July 2008 (EDT)

To answer my own question, when you enter the cave. --Debatra 20:40, 10 July 2008 (EDT)

Also, it depends on whether your light or heavy armor skill is higher, taking fortification, damage and drain effects into account. --Debatra 20:40, 10 July 2008 (EDT)

No, it's determined randomly using a standard leveled list. Your skill level has no effect on whether you are more likely to receive a heavy armor or light armor version of the helmet. --Nephele^Talk 16:02, 13 July 2008 (EDT)
