Wolfskull cave no able to finish it
Hi everyone... I got this mission and the next stage seems to be in an area, which I cannot reach.... is that a known issue? is there a secret doorway? Or did I just mess it up?

need to jump down the hole and then when you come to the next section look to your left and there you will see one of the explosive oil lights...the will be a mage walking by the hole.

Is there another entrance to this?
Because I'm under the impression that i'm already in the "lower" part of that...
The last room, I can enter is a room, where there is a whole in the roof.... but I can't get up there...
http://steamcommunity.com/id/stordyr/screenshots I put a screenshot into my wall.... Check it out ... I really would like to finish the questline and get on with solitude :P

found it... somehow the hole was sealed with ice.. I actually had to cheat and float through the floor.
Then I was able to finish the quest.

The console command TCL helps here....

im having the same problem i dont know how to fix this

Still having this same problem. and, console commands will not work on a Console. XBOX and PS4 are still having this issue.

I solved my issue by getting a MOD(ugh) that gives you 5X jump height. This allowed me to go in the backway after watching a walkthrough video ending to see where the exit is at.(ironically, I walked under it at the front of the cave)

Shouldn't have to any console commands or cheating, its a easy mission and as far as i remember you don't jump up anywhere, you work your way down to the lower level, climb the stairs round the tower, fight off the skeletons, mages and stop the ritual, there is no jumping up through ice or anything, then head back to Solitude.

Sometimes the proper route is incorrectly sealed off, tramper.

Though I suspect that it would've been possible to reach the rear exit without mods, if attempting to climb up to it on horseback. Skyrim's horses don't have much respect for physics and can climb just about anything.

Hi Bomb, i'm wondering if they actually talking about somewhere else, i've played this game for over 3000 hrs now, restarting with new mods and i, as yet have never, not been able to access the lower reach of Wolfskull Cave.I'm talking at least 20+ restarts here as well.

What Lower reach? You just stated above how to get through to the end. That is pretty much all of it.
Bomb Bloke Feb 16, 2018 @ 5:56pm 
The lower area is dubbed "Wolfskull Ruins", and is only accessible after starting "The Man Who Cried Wolf". For some players, it remains blocked off anyway, hence this thread and others like it.

just use tcl and drop through the thing that is blocking you. Quest should continue as normal from there.

PS. dont forget to turn off tcl

Well, a necro is called for here... after playing through Skyrim SE many times, I encountered this very issue in WolfSkull Cave... the tcl solution worked for me too, for which I am thankful!!
