Mzulft

Mzulft is an extensive Dwarven ruin sited south-southeast of Windhelm, along the main road between Windhelm and Riften, and just southeast of Kynesgrove. Access to virtually all of the ruin is blocked by a locked door until you begin the quest Revealing the Unseen.

Mzulft contains a multitude of Dwemer metal items, which can be smelted into Dwarven metal ingots or sold directly—they are relatively high-valued. You can in Mzulft collect the ten Dwarven Cogs needed to complete the quest Arniel's Endeavor.

There are several moonstone ore veins in the first zone and about 17 pieces of ore around the whole ruin. Two Dwemer Convectors can be found in the ruins: one inside the main ruins, and another in the Dwarven Storeroom.

Dwarven Storeroom

Dwarven Storeroom.

The Dwarven Storeroom is a separate building just south of the main entrance. The storeroom contains no enemies, but does contain a Dwemer Convector (needed for the third part of Arniel's Endeavor) and a large amount of Dwemer scrap and other Dwemer items (pans, bowls, etc).

To the right as you enter the main chamber there is an Apprentice-level locked door leading to a room containing two chests, 18 Dwarven metal ingots, and more Dwemer clutter and scrap. Looking straight ahead in the main chamber, there is an Expert-level locked gate leading to a room containing a random enchanted Dwarven axe lying on a shelf, several more Dwarven metal ingots, and more Dwemer clutter and scrap. To the right as you enter this room is an Expert-level locked door leading to the room with the two chests.

An Aetherium Shard can be found here for the Dawnguard quest Lost to the Ages^DG.

Noteworthy items include:

• Bent Dwemer Scrap Metal x5
• Dwarven Metal Ingot x18
• Dwemer Cog x4
• Large Decorative Dwemer Strut x1
• Large Dwemer Plate Metal x2
• Small Dwemer Lever x1
• Solid Dwemer Metal x3
