Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - All Dragon Priest Mask locations

Dragon Priests are long-lost warriors of Skyrim who were once dedicated in complete service to the dragons. These priests were rewarded with unique masks that surged their power. These priests have been resurrected since the dragons were reborn. They can be found in various crypts across the map of Skyrim.

Skyrim has eight Dragon Priests, each of which is powerful and puts up a good fight. In total, there are ten masks in Skyrim. Eight of them belong to the priests, while one other is a wooden mask with no hidden capabilities. One last mask will be rewarded once all nine masks across the world of Skyrim are collected.

4) Nahkriin

Perks: +50 Magicka and Destruction & Restoration spell cost 20% less.

Nahkriin is easily located since he is a part of the main quest, ‘The World-Eater’s Eyrie.’ As a part of this quest, you will be taken to a distinct location of Skuldafn. This isn’t accessible in any instance other than this quest. You will be leveled up sufficiently by the time you encounter this quest, so defeating Nahkriin will be a breeze.

Perks: 30% increase in fire, frost, and shock resistance.

You can locate Otar in the ruins of Ragnvald, located to the northeast of Markarth. Otar lies in a sealed casket. The keys to it can be obtained by defeating two guardians. Otar is a formidable foe, and you can use shock spells to deplete Otar’s magicka and aggressively attack it with weapons.

6) Rahgot

Catacombs of Forelhost. (Image via Bethesda)

Perks: Increases stamina by 70 points.

You can face Rahgot by completing the side quest ‘Siege on the Dragon Cult.’ You can fetch this quest from a soldier near the catacombs of Forelhost. It is in the southeast corner of the Skyrim map.

7) Vokun

Here you can find the quest ‘A Scroll for Anska.’ (Image via Bethesda)

You can head to High Gate Ruins, situated between Solitude and Dawnstar. You can find Vokun in the dungeon. You can initiate the quest ‘A Scroll for Anska’ by speaking to Anska in ruins.

Perks: Prices are 20% better, Carry 20 points more, and you can breathe underwater.

To get this mask, you must head to the far west side of Solitude. The nordic ruins in Volskygge are home to this Dragon Priest in Skyrim. Volsung is considerably powerful and magic resistant. You should thus try to sneak up on him and drain his magicka first if spotted.

9) Wooden Mask

Perks: None

This mask is required to obtain the next one on the list. You will have to wear this mask to access the Dragon Priest Shrine. To get this mask, head inside the central barrow in Labyrinthian, also known as Bromjunaar Sanctuary. The wooden mask can be found near a skeleton.

As soon as you wear the wooden mask, the Dragon Priest Shrine appears. The shrine has murals of every Dragon Priest; you will have to place their respective masks in the slots. Once this is done, the final mask of Konahrik is yours for the taking. Do remember to collect all the masks back from the slots before leaving.
