Finding All Leads for the Barkroot Blessing Skin

The Dolmen Clay Lead

You can find this lead around the Volcanic Vent World Events, which is located in the Galen zone. Finishing multiple Volcanic Vents is most likely going to be your fate, because the drop rate for this lead is not guaranteed. Therefore, be prepared for a lengthy challenge when you set out to get this lead.

The Scarab-Host Box Lead

This lead is hidden in the Forgotten Wastes public dungeon which you can find in the Vvardenfell zone. To get this lead, you will only need to defeat any boss in the Forgotten Wastes public dungeon. Unfortunately, the drop chance for this lead upon killing a boss isn’t 100%. Therefore, it may be a grind to get this lead.

The Amber Heart Lead

This lead can be found in the Galen zone. There is a mobile boss known as the Preserver of Galen, who drops this lead. You will need to track down this boss and kill him to obtain this lead. Again, as with the Scarab-Host Box, this lead isn’t 100% going to drop. So be prepared to kill the same boss multiple times until he drops it.

The Writhing Vine Mass Lead

You will find this lead in the Galen zone as well. Look inside of the Faun’s Thicket Delve for the boss living within. To get this lead, defeat him and secure the lead. This lead does not drop 100% of the time, much like other leads, so be ready to repeat this process.

The Petrified Tree Bark Tablet Lead

This lead is located within the Galen zone. Firstly, you will need treasure maps and search where the maps lead to find chests potentially containing this lead. Frustratingly for some players, you may need to find multiple treasure chests as this lead does not always drop from one.

The Old Growth Mulch Lead

This lead is also in the Galen zone. Look within the Daily Reward Coffers to find this lead. If you’re wondering how to get Daily Reward Coffers, you will need to finish Daily Quests in Galen. Also, this lead does not always drop from the Daily Reward Coffers, thus you may need to grind out this process a few times before obtaining the lead.

The Chimera-Hair Brush Lead

This lead is in the Galen zone near the boss protecting the Grove of the Chimera World. Finish off this boss to get the lead. Because the drop rate for this lead is not guaranteed, you may need to endure multiple fights with the world boss. Ensure you are prepared for this encounter, as the boss is a tough opponent to battle.

The Phoenix Moth Pigment Lead

This lead can only be obtained by farming Phoenix Moth Critters, which you can do in the Galen zone. These Critters will most likely be seen near light, so look around Torches. This lead is the same as the others in that it does not have a guaranteed drop rate. Be prepared to have a burning dislike for Phoenix Moth Critters by the end of this grind!

The Grove Carpet Buds Lead

This lead is in the Galen zone as well. It can be found within the Embervine Delve. The delve boss holds this lead, and so defeating him is essential to getting it. The boss does not have a 100% chance to drop this lead, so get ready for a long grind if you are unlucky.

The Living Bark Lead

The last lead on this list can be found in the Greenshade zone. This lead drops only from the endboss of the City of Ash 1 dungeon. Be ready for multiple attempts, as the drop rate for this lead is not guaranteed. Luckily, you can do battle in normal or veteran mode to get this lead, making it a little easier to obtain.

After you have all ten leads, you will be able to get the Barkroot Blessing skin in the Elder Scrolls Online. Double check to make sure you have done all ten, so that you don’t forget any!
