Winds of the North comes with a couple of mods that change when certain quests become available. This helps better align the game with some of the balance changes made by Simonrim.
The largest of these mods is the Arena - Quest Requirements Addon.
This mod alters the required starting level for many quests in the game to align better with Arena’s encounter zones.
Arena Quest Requirements is a work-in-progress mod by SimonMagus616 and DeltaRider. Do not redistribute this mod without explicit permission
Quest | Level |
---|---|
Hearthfire Letter | 15 |
Dungeon Delving (Markarth) | 15 |
The Forsworn Conspiracy | 15 |
Kill the Giant (The Pale) | 15 |
Kill The Vampire (Solitude) | 20 |
Unfathomable Depths | 20 |
The Black Star | 20 |
Ill Met by Moonlight | 20 |
The Break of Dawn | Usually in Arena Quest requirements this would be level 20. But in WotN, Meredia's Beacon is available in Rielle from level 1. Getting to it before level 15 would be a difficult endevour. |
A Night To Remember | 20 |
The Mind of Madness | 20 |
Dawnguard | 20 |
The Wolf Queen Awakened | 25 |
A Daedra's Best Friend | 25 |
The Cursed Tribe | 25 |
The House of Horrors | 25 |
The Taste of Death | 25 |
Waking Nightmare | 25 |
Boethiah’s Calling | 30 |
Discerning the Transmundane | 30 |
Pieces of the Past | 30 |
The Only Cure | 30 |
The Whispering Door | 30 |
Dragonborn (Requires the completion of the Horn of Jorgen Windcaller too) | 30 |
Deathbrand | 30 |
The Ebony Warrior | 40 |
Another important mod for re-leveling quests is “Radiant Requirements” by Parapets. This mod “modifies select radiant quests so that they don’t send you to locations with dangerous enemies until your level is high enough.”
Dungeon Type | Min Level |
---|---|
Draugr | 9 |
Spriggan | 9 |
Forsworn | 14 |
Hagraven | 14 |
Warlock | 14 |
Dragon | 19 |
Falmer | 19 |
Giant | 19 |
Vampire | 24 |
Werewolf | 24 |
Dragon Priest | 29 |
In addition to the changes mentioned above, there are a number of new quests and locations in Winds of the North.
Below I will detail how exactly to start these new quests.
Quest | Requirements |
---|---|
Extended Cut - Saints and Seducers |
Complete "Mind of Madness"
level 20 |
Wyrmstooth | Complete "Rise in the East" |
Siege at Icemoth | Read a journal at the Old Wooden Jetty, just west of Northwatch Keep |
Taarengrav Barrow |
The barrow is available at any time in the western rift.
As a draugr dungeon, enemies will start at level 10 |
Morthal Barrow | Morthal Barrow is available at any time, but I suggest being at least level 25, as its a vampire dungeon. |
