Skyrim talk:Clairvoyance (effect)

Stops Working

Is anyone else experiencing clairvoyance not working at all? It used to work just fine for me, but now (higher level, more quests done etc) it just wont function anymore. Whenever I try to use it, no matter which quest is marked in the journal, it will just report "No direct path seen". Aezay 02:27, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Press B then Magic and activate it

Then press RT — Unsigned comment by 76.208.20.104 (talk) at 06:04 on 31 December 2011

Select "Map", then click anywhere to place the marker. Select "Remove It" to remove the marker. That did it for me. The "cheap gps" spell works again. --from Tai — Unsigned comment by 98.207.232.188 (talk) at 06:24 on 5 January 2012

Stopped for me too. asked the forums and this worked:

disable all active quests including the miscellaneous ones then place a custom (blue) marker somewhere you know is easy to reach. then try clairvoyance again, it *should* work normally again (ToyHammer) — Unsigned comment by 111.68.59.76 (talk) at 03:52 on 7 January 2012

I found that if you enable Alteration Ritual Spell, clairvoyance stops working. So maybe it doesn't work when you have a quest enabled with no location to point to. Also, clairvoyance seems to put your custom destination as it's first preference, so if you want to get to a quest location you might want t remove it. Jazstar 20:46, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Night-Eye

Hey guys, I haven't been playing this game for a while, and now that all these DLCs are out I'm gonna give it a fresh start and make a new character. I was thinking about making an illusion-assassin, and I've noticed previously that Clairvoyance could be of help in dark spots. I don't like turning my brightness up, since it makes the game look pretty horrible, but if clairvoyance doesn't help, I'll have to make a khajit so the night eye is availible. Please tell me if clairvoyance is any help in the dark at all? Thanks. — Unsigned comment by 219.88.64.227 (talk) at 04:47 on 4 May 2013

No direct path found

If clairvoyance can’t find the path to an objective for some reason, it will display the message, ”No direct path found.” It seems to show this a lot. --Grimbold (talk) 06:33, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
