How to Deal With Vampires and Hunters in the Information at a Price Quest in Oblivion Remastered

From now on, there will be two locations marked on your map for you. One of them signifies the hidden lair of the vampires, known as Bloodcrust Cavern, and the other represents the position of Eridor, the hunter. The following actions are at your disposal:

1. Locate the Bloodcrust Cavern on the map to identify the hiding place of the vampires.
2. Find the location marked as Eridor, the hunter, for potential assistance in dealing with the vampire issue.

  • First Method: You can go to the cavern and kill the vampires. There should be 10 of them; loot one Vampire Dust from one of the vampires and take it back to Eridor to prove that the vampires are dead, making him call off his search.
  • Second Method: You must go to the cavern and kill the vampires. After this, you will be able to see multiple markers inside Skingrad, marking the different hunters. Go to them and kill them one by one, making sure no guard witnesses the crime.

In this setting, vampires have the power to inflict a condition known as “Porphyric Hemophilia” on you. If left untreated, this affliction can trigger a complete transformation into a vampire.

  • Third Method: Go and talk to Eridor, telling him the location of the vampires. He will then travel to the cavern along with the other hunters. Eridor will not go to the cavern before 8 a.m., so you will have to pass the time. Once the hunters make their way inside the cavern, you can go in and help them defeat the vampires, after which you can show Eridor the Vampire Dust.
  • Fourth Method: Tell Eridor the location of the vampires and meet the hunters there. Wait inside the cavern for the parties to fight, and kill the remaining.

After implementing the chosen strategy, feel free to return to Count Hassildor to learn that Mannimarco has resurfaced. Share this news with Arch-Mage Traven, and it will wrap up this mission for you.
