How to join the Mages Guild in Oblivion Remastered

Becoming a member of the Mages Guild can be quite beneficial in The Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion Remastered. After the Tutorial quest, players can align themselves with any of the four factions available in the title — the Fighters Guild, the Dark Brotherhood, the Thieves Guild, and, specifically, the Mages Guild.

Notably, joining a faction necessitates engaging in specific activities, after which players gain access to prominent rewards. Although those utilizing a magic build will receive greater advantages from aligning with the Mages Guild, the benefits offered are reasonably suitable for all types of builds.

We showcase how you can join the Mages Guild in Oblivion Remastered.

What happens when you join the Mages Guild in Oblivion Remastered?

You must follow certain rules to stay in the guild (Image via Sportskeeda Gaming || Bethesda Softworks)

After becoming a member, you will receive a subsequent quest essential for advancing within the guild. Completing all quests associated with each of the seven Mages Guilds will grant you access to the Arcane University in the Imperial City.

Additionally, access to the guild's Living Quarters allows you to utilize beds for resting, which is effective in enhancing your character's skills. Furthermore, you can retrieve items from the guild without the risk of being classified as stolen.

Nevertheless, you will be expelled from the Mages Guild if you perpetrate any offense (killing or stealing) against fellow guild members. You can, however, regain membership in the guild upon completing tasks assigned by the Steward of the Council of Mages (Arcane University).

While you can rejoin, you will be permanently banned from joining the Mages Guild if you commit a crime for a third time.
