Where to find & how to use Varla Stones in Oblivion Remastered

Varla Stones are precious items in Oblivion Remastered related to weapon enchantments, and you need to find as many as possible.

Resembling gems, these stones are tough to find. This guide will provide all the information required to find and use the Varla Stones in Oblivion Remastered. Their use-case scenarios and limited numbers make them highly valuable, which also means that you should use them sparingly.

What are Varla Stones in Oblivion Remastered?

Varla Stones are extremely valuable commodities that will completely recharge the enchantments of all weapons. They’re pretty similar to Soul Gems, but there’s a key difference: a Soul Gem can restore the enchantment of only one weapon.

Typically, these stones are best used when you have many weapons with enchantments. If you have only a couple, Soul Gems are more suitable due to their price.

You can also sell Varla Stones for 1,000 Gold each. However, I will strongly advise against doing this. A limited number of stones are available to find in the first place, and there are other ways to get Gold inside the game. Selling them for Gold should be the last thing you should do (unless there’s an emergency).

How to find Varla Stones in Oblivion Remastered?

You’ll have to travel to Ayleid Ruins, where you’ll come across several locked cages. Every cage has a switch to open it. In certain cases, a few stones will be bound to pedestals that you won’t be able to reach normally. You’ll have to use your Acrobatics skills to reach the pedestals or shoot them down to dislodge the stones. For the latter, you can use an arrow to get the job done.
