Skellige Stones of Strength
Description:

Finding them all in Skellige can give you a serious edge, especially if you're running low on level-up points.




Places of Power in Skellige
There are a total of seven Places of Power spread across the various isles. Some are easy to find, others are remote and monster-guarded.

1. Aard Place of Power (Kaer Trolde Harbor)
Location: Directly above the harbor, on a cliff behind the keep
Climb the trail from the harbor up to the high path—it's just above the main fortress.

2. Axii Place of Power (Near Gedyneith on Ard Skellig)
Location: West of Gedyneith, near a druid circle and ancient tree
This one's well hidden among druid ruins—look for a circle of standing stones.

3. Yrden Place of Power (Between Whale Graveyard and Wild Shore)
Location: East of the Whale Graveyard, on Ard Skellig
Tucked into a small clearing in the woods, not far from the coast.

4. Igni Place of Power (South of Giants’ Toes on An Skellig)
Location: Between Giant’s Toes and the main road, on a high hill
A long walk or ride, but worth it. Just follow the winding mountain trail.

5. Quen Place of Power (On Spikeroog Island)
Location: In the far north of Spikeroog, near the coast
Threats: Bandits or wild dogs
Climb the cliffs until you reach the highlands—the stone stands tall near the edge.

6. Aard Place of Power (North of Kaer Muire on Ard Skellig)
Location: Follow the mountain path north from Kaer Muire
High up on a slope overlooking the sea. Bring your horse or prepare to climb.

7. Igni Place of Power (South of Urialla Harbor on An Skellig)
Location: In the hills just below Urialla
Off the beaten path, but not too far—ride south through the forests and check the ridges.




Tips for Exploring Skellige
    []Use your horse to reach higher altitudes faster. []Pack Swallow and food—some are guarded by enemies or deep in wilderness. []Fast travel back to the nearest signpost to save time. []Check off each one with custom map markers or a checklist.
