Where can I find atronachs?

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 1:55 pm

I've got a quest which requires me to trap the souls of six atronachs, two of each type. They can't be summoned. Problem is, my character is at such a high level that I'm not finding atronachs in Daedric ruins anymore--just dremoras. Does anyone know of locations where there are guaranteed to be atronachs? Respawning atronachs would be best, but if I have to travel to more than one place to fill my quota, that's OK too.

Vassir-Didanat cave should give you a Flame Atronach or two. Cross the bridge east from the Shulk Eggmine and look in the rocks for the cave. (I believe the Atronach(s) respawn.)
As I remember there is a Frost Atronach in the Nabith Waterway in Kogoruhn. I'll bet he respawns. (As I remember there are a lot of Flame Atronachs in Kogoruhn too.)
Rayna Drolan is a herrmit in Sheogorad sent there by Azura. She is plagued by Daedra sent by Sheogorath including a Storm Atronach.(See Azura's quest.)

The cavern on Mt. Kand has one of each that respawn. They're uniques though, so I'm not sure if they qualify for your quest.

I've already done Azura's quest, so the atronach on the island with Rayna Drolan is no more. Checking in the CS, I see that the Vassir-Didanat atronachs are from a leveled list, so I should find Storm Atronachs with my character. I don't think I've been there yet, so it shouldn't matter if they respawn. The Frost and Flame Atronachs in Kogoruhn are set, so if they respawn I should find them by going back there.

I'll check out both those places. Thanks for the pointers.

If you go to Vassir Didanat, make sure you check in with Dram Bero in St. Olms, Vivec, for a free Daedric weapon afterwards.

Here's a comprehensive list of the place where you can find atronachs.
(Edit: I should have said non-respawning atronachs :) )
Using a little program I call http://code.google.com/p/mlox/wiki/Tes3cmd

The command:
tes3cmd dump --type cell --instance-match "\batronach_(flame|frost|storm)\b" Morrowind.esm

Gives the result:

Apparently the Kogoruhn atronachs don't respawn; I just made a run through the whole place and didn't see a single one. Just ash zombies and ash slaves. I'll try Vassir Didanat and the places on John's list I haven't been to.
