Abandoned Home Question

Post » Thu Feb 14, 2013 2:51 pm

I'm curious about the unmarked location decribed in the wiki:

Northwest of the http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Western_Watchtower lies a ruined, burning shack. There is a hidden chest under some broken floorboards. With http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Fall_of_the_Space_Core,_Vol_1 installed, the http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Space_Core will crash land in this shack.

I'll note I don't have that space core plugin installed, nor wish to. I'm more interested in the shack itself. Never have I seen it burning, and I may be referring to a different shack entirely so please correct me if I'm wrong. The one I'm wanting to know about is broken down old house with no roof, a bed, and a chest under the floor boards (with a small quantity of gold)... I typically find it on my way to Rorikstead from whiterun. I want to know if the chest inside (under the floorboards) is safe to use for storage.

My plan is to use one of the camping mods to set up a small player home inside the existing frame work of the building as it seems like an idea place to have some sort of camp site.

If that chest isn't safe, I would ask anyone with a more in depth knowledge of Skyrim to point me in the direction of a unmarked location, that has safe storage, and is open to the world (no load screens).. that I can potentially set up camp with my mod and survive.


Thanks.

No, you're thinking of the right shack. It's never on fire either so don't worry.

I've just checked the chest in question for you and it does respawn, so it's not safe to store items there.

The UESP has a list of all safe, non-respawning locations:

I RPed that home was where my character grew up before they were killed and she was kidnapped/raised by bandits.
