Detailed Walkthrough

Meeting Hofgrir

Meet Holfgrir Horse-Crusher at the Riften Stables, just to the north of Riften. Talk to him about the dangers of living outside the walls, this will lead to him boasting about being the strongest brawler in Skyrim. Make a 100 gold bet with him that you can beat him. This brawl is like any other, and the usual rules apply, no weapons, no offensive magic, but be warned he is much tougher than most other brawlers.

Claiming your reward

After winning the brawl, talk to Holfgrir and he will give you your 100 gold back, as well as another 100 gold for winning the bet.

Notes

• Successfully completing this quest result in being able to ride his horses for free.

Bugs

• Make sure you have 200 gold when you attempt the brawl or the quest will be uncompletable. ^?
  • This can be fixed using setstage FreeformRiften19 200 followed by resetquest FreeformRiften19.

Quest Stages

• The following empty quest stages were omitted from the table: 10, 30, 40, 200, 250.

 

Notes

• Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the Radiant Quest system, and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
• Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
• Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
• If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
• On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage FreeformRiften19 stage, where stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages, but it is possible to clear all stages of the quest using resetquest FreeformRiften19.
