Skyrim:Miscellaneous Quests

The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995
Jump to: navigation, search

Miscellaneous quests are minor quests. Completing objectives for miscellaneous quests increases the "Misc Objectives Completed" statistic in your journal, and counts towards the Hero of the People achievement.

Miscellaneous quests appear in your journal, but are listed together in the "Miscellaneous" section. The actual name of each miscellaneous quest is not visible in game (the names used on this site are the names assigned to the quests in the Creation Kit). Only the current objective associated with each miscellaneous quest can be seen; completed objectives are not displayed, nor is any additional information about the current quest stage. Miscellaneous quests are different from side quests, as the latter are full quests with complete entries in your journal.

Many miscellaneous quests use the Radiant quest system to add a dynamic element to the quest. Therefore, details of the objectives for such quests (who assigns the quest, where to go, etc.) are likely to vary from one player to another.

This page does not list all of the miscellaneous quests available in the game. Apart from quests listed here, please consult the links below for more miscellaneous quests. Faction-related miscellaneous quests, including those relevant to the College of Winterhold, Dark Brotherhood, and Thieves Guild, as well as miscellaneous quests related to Creation Club content, are also not listed on this page. In addition, certain random events you may witness while exploring Skyrim for which no information is displayed in your journal are described on the World Interactions page.

All of the pages linked below include miscellaneous quests which are not listed here, with the exception of Favors. Favors include most quests listed here (highlighted in the tables below), as well as certain Activities for which no information is displayed in your journal.

Radiant quests that can be obtained from multiple people are listed multiple times. Quests are sorted by hold or other relevant area (including Solstheim and the Soul Cairn). Miscellaneous quests are usually started and completed entirely within a single hold or area.

Achievements[edit]

One achievement is obtained by completing miscellaneous quests:

  • SR-achievement-Hero of the People.png Hero of the People (30 points/Bronze) — Complete 50 Misc Objectives
    • The game counts objectives completed, not quests completed; miscellaneous quests which have more than one objective count more heavily. It also counts all objectives completed, not just those that are part of the miscellaneous quests on this page. For example, if you join the Companions and get the objective "Talk to the Companions leaders for work", completing that objective counts towards the achievement.
    • The game also counts completing the same exact objective multiple times. For example, during the quest to retrieve 20 Deathbell, 20 Nightshade, and 20 Nirnroot for Ingun in Riften, every time you update your personal inventory from fewer than 20 to greater than or equal to 20 of any of the three ingredients, you will receive a quest objective update. You can therefore remain in a container menu and repeatedly shift these items back and forth in order to quickly unlock this achievement.
    • You can track your progress towards the achievement using the "Misc Objectives Completed" statistic on the "Quest" page of your journal's "General Stats".

Bugs[edit]

  • Miscellaneous quests may disappear from your list of active quests, starting from the earliest quests forward. The quests are still active, however, and a quest will reappear if it is updated.
  • Some radiant quests become unavailable if you do not receive them upon your first visit to the location, even if you avoid dialogue with the quest givers. This can be verified with Amren and Ysolda in Whiterun by riding to another city and back.
