As you were made almost fatally aware in your first few minutes in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Skyrim, there is a rebellion on. The Stormcloak Rebellion, led by Ulfric Stormcloak, have taken up arms against the Empire🎀 and the Imperial Legion to secure a future for Skyrim without the weak Empire holding them back.
If their cause appeals to you, there is nothing stopping you from taking up arms and fighting for the future of the province alongside the plucky rebellion. Unless, of course, you don't know where to sign up. If that is the case, this guide will show you how to join the Stormcloak Rebellion.
How To Join The Stormcloak Rebellion
Broadly speaking, there are two ways to get a Miscellaneous quest "Join the Stormcloak Rebellion"
- Side with Ralof on your escape from Helgen in Unbound.
- Speak to Stormcloak soldiers on patrol or at their camps
In both instances, you will be prompted to go to the city of Windhelm and to speak with Ulfric Stormcloak to join the Rebellion. He will be in The Palace of the Kings, speaking to his right-hand man Galmar Stone-Fist.
Remembering Helgen, Ulfric acknowledges that you might be an asset to his army and asks you to speak with Galmar about joining. The old warrior sets a test for you; kill an ice wraith to prove that you have the strength to join the Stormcloaks. This starts the full quest, Joining the Stormcloaks.
This should go without saying, but joining the Stormcloaks will stop you from joining the Legion.
Where To Kill The Ice Wraith
Your initiation will take you to the Sea of Ghosts, in the frozen waters north of Skyrim. There, you need to find your way to Serpentstone Isle to fight the ice wraith. The Isle itself is in the middle of the sea and cannot be accessed without swimming across.
The closest city is Winterhold. There will be a safe path down the cliff on its east side that should provide you with a route to Serpentstone Isle though there is no road there.
If you are struggling to kill it, Galmar will provide you with an Elixir of Resist Cold and three Ice Wraith Banes, a unique poison that will deal extra damage to ice wraiths. These items will ma𝓰ke it much easier to defeat the ice wraith.
There will be a slope on the north side of Serpentstone Isle that you can use to reach the ice wraith. It will turn aggressive as soon as it notices you, immediately starting combat. The fight itself will be a challenging fight against a single enemy. As the name implies, the ice wraith is weak to fire and deals frost damage that saps your stamina.
Serpentstone Isle takes its name from the Serpent Standing Stone, a magic stone that grants you the power to paralyze enemies once a day.
Once you defeat it, return to Windhelm and speak to Galmar. He will be impressed with your performance and allow you to join the Stormcloak Rebellion, giving you a uniform to look the part. Your first mission with them is to retrieve the Jagged Crown to give Ulfric legitimacy as the 🦂true High King of Skyrim.
