Skull of Corruption [SOLVED]

[TDotDubz]

After a while I've finally started collecting the 15 artifacts. I learnt that the Skull of Corruption was one of them however when I did the quest BEFORE I knew this I let Erandur live. I have leanred now that you have to kill him and take the Skull for myself to get it. Bare in mind I can't go back and replay it. It is a very long time ago. I understand that I can start a new save but that doesn't appeal to me very much... Is there any way to get it now without having to restart?

Ok.

The easy way is to just use the console:

player.additem 00035066 1

That won't move you any closer to gaining the Oblivion Walker achievement, though. That's managed by a special counter that increases every time a quest rewards you with a daedric artifact (the game doesn't actually care whether you keep them or not).

USLEEP makes Auriel's Bow increase the counter, and if you have Dawnguard, is also required to make A Daedra's Best Friend increase the counter (the Masque of Clavicus Vile doesn't count without the patch).

Wait so with this information it's safe to assume that my Auriel's Bow contributed towards the acievement? If that's the case I belive I still have a shot in getting the achievement.

If you've been running the unofficial patch the whole time, then to my understanding you should indeed be able to skip one artifact.

I wouldn't know what patch I've been running but I guess I'll find out with my next artifact finding, which I believe is the one atthe end of Boethiah's Calling.

USLEEP is the Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch[www.nexusmods.com]. If you're not sure whether you have it, then odds are that you don't have it.

Ah okay. Just wondering if I were to get it now, will the counter increase or is it too late for Auriel's Bow?

Some users have reported that a late install worked, some users have reported that it didn't. It's certainly worth a shot and will likely prevent other problems in the future anyway.

Alright, thanks ever so much for your help! I've gotten the patch and we'll see once I have finished getting the Ebony Mail.
