Dirt is a resource required for building homesteads in The Elder Scrolls v: Skyrim . Here'due south where players can locate it around the province of Skyrim.

TheHearthfireDLC toSkyrimintroduced a light version of sandbox gaming toThe Elderberry Scrolls. Through it, players can at present purchase plots of land instead of pre-designed homes such every bit Honeyside in Riften or Breezehome in Whiterun. The remaining holds that were not given homes within the city at present have remote plots of country where the player can build big manors and mansions and design them freely, to a degree. These properties are Windstad Manor in Hjaalmarch, Lakeview Manor in Falkreath, and Heljarchen Hall in The Stake. Players have the freedom of arranging certain wings of the firm and allocating them for any they'd like, such every bit a tower for either a library or an enchanter'south tower.

Dirt is required for building whatever homestead inSkyrim, though information technology is not required for regular, pre-congenital houses. Later purchasing a plot of land from the local Jarl for five,000, upon traveling to the building site where the estate will reside, the histrion should notice a drafting table, a workbench, and a chest. Inside the chest are some starter materials that will exist needed for building, including xxx clay.

While the clay within the chest will go a long manner, eventually, when building a total homestead from the basis upward,Skyrimplayers will need to acquire more clay. Thankfully, it'south like shooting fish in a barrel to notice in large quantities, it just might take a while to mine a lot of it.

Nearby on any of the iii plots of country will be a clay deposit, similar to the rock quarries needed to mine stone. Of course, this means Skyrimplayers will need a pickaxe, and it'southward smart to simply go along a pickaxe in the chest on the building site. At Heljarchen Hall, ane clay eolith tin be found in front end of the workbench. At Windstad Manor, 1 is located north of the chopping cake. And at Lakeview Estate, it might be a scrap more difficult to observe near a grouping of 3 copse.

But there are over 2 dozen more clay deposits located around Skyrim, including at Ivarstead, which has 2 dirt deposits, Lake Honrich, which has vi simply along the southward shore of the lake moving towards Heartwood Mill, and Treva's Watch, which has 2 deposits across the river from the fortress and two more in either management. Additionally, each clay deposit yields 4,000 units before depleting.

As manySkyrimveterans know, wielding 2 pickaxes, ane in either manus and striking the ore vein as if attacking an enemy will yield the material much faster than using the "mine" prompt.
