You'd think that the developers would think of that, but it looks like they had mental diarrhea and couldn't get their head out in time to avoid brain damage and a brown ring on their neck, and the residual methane fumes caused a sleepy Joe moment and they ran with "sacrifice all your masks for something that only*might* work for you. Yeesh. They really should have taken a few hours from watching their lunch digest.
I don't think fusing all the masks would make sense as the priests were different persons, but maybe give you a major buff to shouts, magic or magic resist when you had all of them in the inventory or if you put them in a place like the one in the video. But there are a LOT of unfinished quests in base Skyrim that they never addressed. Thanks to the community, some of them got finished.
Whaaat? I never cared much for those masks as I don't like wearing them, but it's incredible how after 13 years I still keep finding things I never saw in Skyrim.
@@cromandum217 everyone knows about what? The masks or that I keep finding new things in Skyrim? I didn't know everyone knows me, thanks but I think you're overestimating me. About the masks, I think it's obvious that literally not everyone literally knows about them. So, what's your point? Just trying to look clever? I think you look just unnecessarily arrogant instead.
@doomedarts Wrong. You must have missed that news article about Cromandum. He recently finished an extensive worldwide trip where he asked everyone if they new about the dragon priest masks. The only one that didn't know was you! And now you do. I bet you feel really silly for doubting him now. Next time do your research!
You know that you can take back all the other masks after collecting Konahrik and before you take of the wooden mask, right? You don't have to leave them in this parallel dimension room...
If you Have the anniversary version get the tundra homestead and place the masks on the stand in there once you've collected all of them. Looks cool and also the dragon claws too
After countless hours of questing...a mask that's basically the same as all the others (but with tusks.....wow), and the altar just pops open like a coke bottle to reveal it? No room shaking, no music, no special encounter, no final boss? Collecting a basic dragon soul is more dramatic than this!
So I made a clip/vid but it on Xbox upload thing. Duplication at Whiterun main gate gave 5 Krosis & 2 Volsung, You can have the final Mask, by giving Legendary Masks to your Follower. Before going to Masks Shrine? Barrow at Arin's Shame/Labrinthian Arch Mage quest, or Bequested by Arch Mage Arin (Who would have Possibly gone with You if He n Marybel did'nt snuff it. )
thats disappointing as hell you lose like all your mask just to get one that has a "chance'' at giving you health and damaging enemies, as well as no boss fight this game needs a remastered and where you can go back in time from anywhere with the wooden mask and that way you can mess with the timeline kind stuff
Disappointing indeed, but you don't lose the masks, once you get the last one you can go back there and retrieve all your masks, they don't have to stay there :D
I got a great idea: how about Konahriik gets an OP ability which combines the abilities of the previous masks while having it's own ability on top of that. However, the catch is: he's the most powerful boss in the entire game. Easily surpassing Karstaag and the Ebony Warrior. Of course, at that point in the game, it'd be useless.
You know once you pick up Konahrik from the center Dragon pedestal, keep the Wooden mask on and you can recollect the other masks for your collection. There's a total of 13 masks 10 in Skyrim and 3 in Solsthiem. Once collected you can place them in your trophy room in the Anniversary Homes.
There's a way to get them all, without even fighting, just look on the wiki for the relative page/pages about those masks, under the image there's a small tab with some writings, the last line is and alfanumeric code, that code is the identification code of that object in the game files, just copy that code, get into the game, open the game console with the appropriate command (I use a personalized one, but there's a standard one) and then write in the console something like: add player item or add inventory item insert a space after that and then the code you copied from the wiki, result you get all the masks in mere minutes without even fighting their original wearer. There's a page in the wiki that explains what are console commands, how they work and lista them all based on what they do, aside from the simplest the majoritt of them is better to either write them down or save the page URL as to get quick access; some commands are unsless most of the time, unless you want to make fun of the game NPCs 😂
but my question is, by HOW MUCH does it heal you and WHAT IS THE PROBABILITY (i.e. "chance) that it will happen when your health reaches the depletion level? There's no detail about how it works. If the probability is low and the healing is only a small amount then it isn't worth nearly as much as some of the other masks.
The Questions Are; Can You Take the Masks back once You get the heavy armour Boss mask, because I have between 7 & 12 Houses that have these Mask's displays? And I don't Remember that chest. Pointless kit if Heavy cos I'm a Hornet (butterflies don't 'Sting') n Light's right...
I never finished these quests, because I simply forgot it existed during gameplay after collecting 4 or 5 masks. I at least would have hoped that you can talk to those dragon priests ghosts or something like that Very underwhelming
Really? Just like that? I expected that when you collected the mask, it magically disappeared in your hands, before you get warped to an area in Sovengarde (don’t know how to spell it, sorry) not possible to access conventionally and encounter the Dragon Priest who owns it. It would have to be a super boss, since it governs the other priests and anticipates the Dovahkiin’s arrival before testing them in a battle. After beating it, it proclaims you worthy and not only gives you the mask (which now has a chance to heal via kill regardless of how much health you have left), but the room you got sent back too is now filled with treasure. It’s just my opinion, tbh, but it’s what I wished it would have happened.
In one playthrough I equipped a follower with one of the masks. He fell down the side of a mountain and I never found him 😂. I had completed it before so I finished the playthrough but it definitely bothered me. So don't give them to followers is the lesson.
Man whoever was in charge of designing the armor and weapons in this game sucks. They really just added tusks to the original design and called it a day😑
@@dogeatsthesun908 I mean, it's made out of bones you ain't gonna shape it like glass, ebony or any steel. Maybe you could carve into it and make it fancy, but imagine you're a designer at bethesda trying to convey the idea of armor made out of bones, and you make it look fancy and elegant. Doesn't make any sense. If it was a game focused solely on dragon armors, and there was no other option (no steel, iron, ebony etc.) then obviously you would get different variants, ranging from crude and sturdy looking to detailed, elegant ones. This dragon mask design tho sucks af, I agree it's completely unimaginitive.
@@caiusactinunwise1412 I disagree. It's a game. You can draw everything you can imagine. And Skyrim is not very realistic game tbh. And making fancy glass armor is way harder than dragon bone armor imo. It's more a matter of lack of imagination, laziness, or tight development deadlines, rather than an attempt to get closer to realism.
@@dogeatsthesun908 That's a fair point, but then every single thing could be over the top, beautifully shaped and ornamented, and in result nothing would stand out, it would simply be noisy. With a mindset like yours, games such as ghost of tsushima are the most beautiful games ever made, just because it's so oversaturated, and there's beautiful flowers, rivers and mountains everywhere. Every armour is so detailed and stylised, and it all looks amazing at first BUT after a while you notice how overwhelming and noisy it all is. Something I learnt about art is that simplicity in design and colour grading goes a long way. And again, here, in this case of dragon armour, it makes complete sense for it to be simple and crude.

@@caiusactinunwise1412 I've read it) My only complaint is that the armor that is not the strongest looks better and is more detailed than the objectively strongest armor. The player will eventually outgrow all types of armor and spends most of the game in dragon armor. In my opinion, it should have been made at least at the same level of development. That's it.
I forgot how badass these masks were :D
I gave a mask to each of my stewarts that guarded my home, with dragon armor as a mark that they served me the fckng dragonborn 😂
But the TUSKS!
They should update Skyrim so that when you get all the masks and combine them, they give you a powerful mask that gives you the best of all the masks
You'd think that the developers would think of that, but it looks like they had mental diarrhea and couldn't get their head out in time to avoid brain damage and a brown ring on their neck, and the residual methane fumes caused a sleepy Joe moment and they ran with "sacrifice all your masks for something that only*might* work for you.

You're also super close to the end of the main questline to get that last mask. It was the first time that I beat the game, and it was by accident
I hope you went back and got the masks after that

I've taken less than 15 screenshots from the thousands of games I've played on Steam. One of them is of the altar with all of the masks on it.
The most I've had in any playthrough (so far - plan to play more once retired) is 3. One day get the nine.
How did you get all 9 in one shot? What was your build guide?

That's it? No dragon fighting or bosses. Very disappointing.
Yep, I went out ready to fight something but that was it LOL
tcl
What happen if you put the wooden mask in chest, you cant enter anymore ?
I think the chests there are just for decoration
miraak mask no used ?
No, I guess since it's from the DLC it has no use in that
Miraak is an outcast among the priests and he is in bloody solsthiem!
All of that work just for an OK mask 😂
Why did you leave the other masks there?
I went back to get them after the video

You get the cool one.
Legacy of the Dragon Born actually gives you more of a reason to get the masks, and it rewards better
It’s crazy to me people don’t know about this sure I haven’t collected all the masks in years but surely you’ve got to do it at some point
Wow, that mask is thrash
It gives you useless shit
Likely the most uselessy overporwed character in game history
