Psijic Order Skill Line Quest and Time Breach Location Guide

Here is my Psijic Order Questline and Time Breach Location Guide.

Prior to starting, be sure you’ve read through my ‘Tips for preparing for the Psijic Order Questline‘ Guide to make the grind a little faster. Those who have fully explored Tamriel will have a much easier time with this Questline than those who have not. Be warned it is quite a long grind, but, you can complete it at your own pace (there is nothing stopping from levelling the Skill Line to 10 in 2-3 hours if you want)!

Note: You can click on any image in this guide to enlarge it.

How to get the Psijic Order Skill Line

• You must purchase the Summerset Chapter. You will not be able to acquire the Psijic Order Skill Line without it.
• Then, you must do the initial Summerset Quest ‘A Queens Decree‘ which will lead you to Artaeum.

Once you get to Artaeum, speak to Loremaster Celarus inside Ceporah Tower in the large room you enter (he’ll have a quest icon above his head) to get the starting quest ‘The Psijics’ Calling‘ to join the Psijic Order.

The first step of this quest is to go to the Wasten Coraldale Delve in Summerset and retrieve the ‘The Augur of the Obscure’. You’ll find him in a chest on a beach as indicated below.

• Closest Wayshrine – Cey-Tarn Keep

Once you have The Augur of the Obscure, you will then have to seal Time Breaches throughout Summerset.

When you’ve sealed all the Time Breaches in Summerset and completed the quest ‘A Psijic’s Calling‘, you will get the Psijic Order Skill Line.

How to Seal Time Beaches

When you get close to a Time Breach, you will get prompted to ‘use The Augur of the Obscure‘ and the Augur will also offer up some commentary. Once you’ve used the Augur, your head will have a gold glowing ‘halo’ around it.

Then once you find the time breach and are within range, you’ll be prompted to seal the breach by pressing E.
