How to Use Dragon Priest Masks for Combat Buffs

Obtaining Dragon Priest Masks

Dragon Priest masks provide strong passive defenses and survivability traits:

1. Explore underground Nordic ruins and cold tomb structures to locate Dragon Priest bosses equipped with masks and custom armor.

2. Defeat these bosses or search dungeon loot chests to collect different masks, such as Konahrik, Hevnoraak, Ahzidal, Dukaan, or Zahkriisos.

3. Place a mask into your armor head slot to activate its unique passive perk.

Selecting the Right Mask Effect

Choose your mask according to the threats you expect to face:

• Konahrik: Grants a chance to prevent fatal player damage, giving you an opportunity to survive otherwise lethal blows in tough fights.
• Hevnoraak: Automatically cleanses negative status effects from your character, keeping you unhindered by harmful debuffs.
• Ahzidal: Provides fire resistance, making it ideal when venturing into hot environments or facing flame attacks.
• Dukaan: Grants freeze resistance to protect your character when trekking through deep snow.
• Zahkriisos: Shields the wearer against lightning and thunder damage.

Swap between your collected masks whenever you need to counter specific environmental hazards or boss abilities.
