Built by the Ayleids as a focus of mystic power at the heart of Tamriel, the White-Gold Tower has long been a symbol of the Empires of Cyrodiil that followed. Now it is in danger of being absorbed into Coldharbour—and could draw Tamriel in after it!
|
The White-Gold Tower is a group dungeon found in the center of the Imperial City.
Traditionally the seat of the Empire, the Tower has been overrun with Daedra and is being pulled into Coldharbour by Molag Bal. Empress Regent Clivia Tharn is attempting to retake the structure. White-Gold Tower has both a Normal and a Veteran mode.
The dungeon can be entered from the Irrigation Tunnels, the Lambent Passage, and the Harena Hypogeum.
Backstory DescriptionEdit
The Daedra have invaded the White-Gold Tower as part of their full-scale attack on the Imperial City. Terran Arminus, an Imperial Moth Priest, seeks your aid in retrieving an Elder Scroll she has hidden in the Tower. It's imperative you find it before the Daedra. Will you be successful, or succumb to the forces of Molag Bal?

Hard ModeEdit
Hard Mode is only available in the Veteran version of White-Gold Tower. Hard mode is initiated by completing the ritual in the Obelisk Tome.
- <The book contains a ritual which imbues Molag Bal's agents with great power. Speaking the following words should bolster the Daedric Prince's champions with his ire.>
"God of Schemes, inflict your brutality upon us." - God of Schemes, inflict your brutality upon us.
Speaking the words written in the tome will cause a blinding flash of light, making the boss fight more difficult. Molag Kena deals more damage while Hard Mode is active. If your group dies, the spell will need to be cast again to re-enable Hard Mode.
LayoutEdit
Palace SewersEdit
The entrance. Empress Regent Clivia Tharn, Sister Terran Arminus, the Empress' guards, and several Imperial archers, healers, and soldiers can be found here. The Daedric Embers Trophy Vault is located through a tunnel on the west side of the room.
Green Emperor WayEdit
- First pull: three zombies, two skeletal foot soldiers, one Xivkyn Lacerator.
- Second pull: three zombies, one skeletal foot soldiers, one skeletal assassin, one Dremora Morikyn, one Xivkyn Flagellant.
- Third pull: four zombies, one skeletal assassin, one Xivkyn Lacerator and one Xivkyn Bulwark.
- There are Daedra on the stairs west of the third pull: A Xivkyn Flagellant, a Dremora Morikyn, a Dremora Ferylkyn, and a Zombie.
- Above the second pull (on the ledge east of it; north of the Iron-Swathed Glutton), there's a group of Daedra watching a brawl between a Dremora Sunderer and a Skeletal Assassin. A Dremora Morikyn, a Dremora Ferylkyn, and a Xivkyn Flagellant are watching, laughing and cheering while the two square up. A heavy sack can be found beside a headstone on this ledge.
Throne RoomEdit
The Adjudicator resides here. When you enter the throne room, you'll see her execute three Imperial Prisoners.
A chest and a heavy sack can spawn by the Ruby Throne, behind the boss.
Imperial Guard QuartersEdit
The first pull consists of one Xivkyn Flagellant, one Dremora Morikyn, three Skeletal Foot Soldiers. There's a snake near the door to the next pull. A chest can spawn in the nook located across from the door to the next room. In the next room, you'll encounter two Planemeld Rifts.
The third pull is just out in the hallway and to the left. It consists of three Skeletal Foot Soldiers, a Dremora Morikyn, a Xivkyn Bulwark,a Xivkyn Lacerator, and a Skeletal Assassin. A passive snake slithers among their boots, and there's a fiendroth ahead and to the right. The door at the end of this hallway brings you to the Lower Elder Scrolls Library.
Lower Elder Scroll LibraryEdit
When you pass through the door, you'll end up in a hallway cluttered with rubble, almost to a claustrophobic extent. The first group of enemies in this hallway consists of four Banekin, two Skeletal Assassins, a Skeletal Foot Soldier, and a Dremora Morikyn. A Crematorial Guard blocks the way through the door at the end of the hall.
The door brings you to the next section of the library, where you'll fight the Imperial Dragonguard. Sister Terran reveals the Elder Scroll, and Clivia Tharn grabs it, causing the ceiling to explode. She then commands her Dragonguard to kill everyone present as she flees through the side door.
The Shattered VoidEdit
Imperial Battlemage QuartersEdit
The third Speaking Stone is in the hallway. The Battlemage Quarters are filled with Spider Daedra, their egg sacs affixed to the ceiling and walls.

- Completing the dungeon will remove the Dark Anchor in the instance, but not in Cyrodiil or the Imperial City.
- The tower can be seen from many places outside the dungeon; each district of the Imperial City has its own version of the tower in the distance, the tower and city can be seen from Cyrodiil, and the tower is also present in the skybox for Blackwood and the West Weald.
