The Heart of Lorkhan

The Heart of Lorkhan can only be destroyed with the Sunder and Keening artifacts. It does not move or attack on its own, but it is defended by the god Dagoth Ur, whose very immortality depends on it.

The Heart's Health starts at 1000, and is reset to 5000 every frame, thus cannot be killed under normal circumstances.

NotesEdit

  • The Heart can not be soul trapped. If you try, you get a message saying "Your spell did not get a target."
  • The Heart is susceptible to the spell effect "Command Creature". If commanded, it will not move after the Nerevarine because it has no movement animation, but if the Nerevarine has an NPC offering the "Travel" service accompanying them (for example, a Mages Guild Guide commanded by the effect "Command Humanoid"), the Heart will teleport together with the Nerevarine and stay at the target location afterwards.
  • The Heart can be killed if you manage to deal more than 5000 damage in one hit (e.g. by using alchemy exploits). However, if the Heart is destroyed in an unintended way, the main quest becomes impossible to complete.
  • The Heart's destruction still triggers if attacked by NPCs wielding Sunder and Keening (who will also not be damaged by the artifacts).
