Oblivion Remastered: Alchemy Training Guide

Once you reach a skill level of 70 or higher, you will be able to talk with the Advanced Trainers to learn about the location of the Master Trainer.


Advanced Trainers

Ardaline

Talking to Ardaline

Ardaline is an Evoker rank member of the Mages Guild. She teaches Advanced Alchemy training within the Bravil Guildhall.

She wakes up at 9am and immediately start working with her mortar and pestle. She takes a 2 hour lunch break at 1pm. She stops again at 8pm for a 2 hour dinner. She’ll wander the guildhall after that until 1am when she goes to bed on the second floor.


Brotch Calus

Talking to Brotch Calus

Brotch Calus is a retired Alchemist who lives in Bruma.

He gets up at 10am and spends most of his day within his house. He leaves at 9pm to walk to Olav’s Tap and Tack, where he eats dinner until 12am. His house will be locked between 10am-9pm.

The best times to talk to him for training would be while he’s in Olav’s Tap and Tackle. His house will be unlocked between 12am and 2am.


Find Sinderion

Talking to Sinderion

Once you know about Sinderion being the Master Alchemy trainer, it’s time to visit him. Travel to Skingrad. He can be found in the basement of the West Weald Inn.

He lives in the Basement. He sleeps between 12am and 8am, locking the basement door while he does. Otherwise he’s prefectly accessible and can be approached for this quest.

Sinderion will make it clear he’ll train you, but only if you bring him a bottle of Tamika Vintage 399 and a bottle of Surilie Brother Vintage 399.
