Skyrim talk:The Aetherium Forge

Extra Chests

I just used the Become Ethereal shout to swim through the lava in the back of the forge room, and there are two gates at the left and right of the pool. They can be opened and each lead to a hallway containing a treasure chest. The hallways lead up and back to the main forge room. Should this be mentioned on the page?--Kolensk 00:18, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

I also just found another chest in the back of the pool.--Kolensk 00:23, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Just some words of caution: the gates to the hidden chests, open toward the player and it is easy to get swept off to the side; while in the lava, the entire screen turns bright yellow and orange, making it difficult to see; to avoid damage, the Ethereal shout is best, however a combination of fire resist gear and a potion will also do nicely; and for those who care, this is a perfect spot to level your Restoration skills. --CleaverX 00:09, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Lava Imagespace

I have entered the lava at the back of the forge and the bright yellow/orange effect that blinds you, has not gone away, under active effects, there is an effect above all the others called lava image space for 24000 hrs this makes the game impossible to play, i have reloaded, slept (really difficult, wondering around windhelm completely blind), fast travelled, waited and it is still there, it makes the game impossible to play as even in the darkest caves the light is blinding and that is nothing compared to daylight, i know it cant be called a glitch unless someone else sees this so please say if you see this (im on xbox) — Unsigned comment by 90.211.107.176 (talk) at 10:50 on 28 August 2012

My best advice would be to load a save before ya entered the lava haha... if you don't have one there, load a save soon after you did and re-enter it for a second - This should clear it up. Whispend^talk 13:25, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

Happened to me when I was exploring the magma, too. I reentered the magma, then left it a few times, and it finally went away. I feel like the effect is over-done; it's more dangerous than the damage, because you can't escape the damage if you can't see where you're going. I had to jump frequently to get my bearings. I would think Become Ethereal would evade the visual effect of damage for it's duration, but obviously not.--Playerseekingbugs 17:26, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

Re-Using The Forge

If one were to add another aetherium crest to his or her inventory, would it allow for the forge to be used again or is its use a scripted part of the quest? --BlackhawkXIII (talk) 02:40, 7 December 2012 (GMT)
