SILENT CARTOGRAPHER Where to eat, sleep and keep warm in Skyrim


2
TAVERN TALES
Always note your closest
inn before travelling. There
you can warm up, buy
food, and sleep in a bed
that resets your
tiredness.

STAY CL ASSY


12
Identify and
plan for the
afflictions that’ll be
the most punishing
for your character.
Mages should
prioritise sleep to
prevent magicka
caps, swordsmen
must eat to protect
their stamina, and
everyone should
keep warm to keep
their health up.

IN TENTS


11
Don’t neglect the other handy
Creation Club mods that come with
Skyrim’s Anniversary Edition. Camping
gives you a place in which to sleep and
keep warm; fishing a steady stream of
swimming food and extra carry weight
with Adventurer’s Backpack.


FEELING SALTY


10
When buying cooking ingredients,
don’t skimp on the salt. Pretty
much all recipes in the game include salt,
so buy and pilfer all you can unless you
want to live on very bland vegetable soup.
Fire Salts are also important for some
nice, warming meals.

CHATTERBOX


9
To avoid unnecessary repeat
journeys, do as much as you can
when visiting a new settlement. Chat to
and pick up quests from every relevant
NPC in one go so you can tick off all
available opportunities without wasting
precious walking time.

FLAMING GOOD


8
Torches are a vital source of
warmth in northern Tamriel’s cooler
areas. They’ll slow the Cold debuff by
50%, but it’s essential you bring multiple
torches with you. That’s especially the
case on longer journeys, since they
eventually run out.

STIR GRAV Y
Uncooked meat can give
you food poisoning in
Survival mode. Keep
Cooking Pot spots in
mind to keep going
for longer.

1
FUR REAL
Skyrim’s regions are split
into warm, cool, and
freezing. Wear warm
armour, pack torches,
and bring plenty
of food.
