How do you get to the sigil stone on the 3rd Olivion gate? I obviously can't open the war gates. I went up to the S-something Shrine and took the Corpse Mauler elevator up to the 2nd floor and went back outside, shot the two Dremora on the other tower (the one I want to get to), but there's no bridge or anything for me to get there. I tried jumping but my athletics skill is too low and I never make it.

Any clues?

I should probably clarify which Oblivion gate this is - it's the one that's right near Fort Blueblood, near Leyawiin. It's driving me nuts!!!

I think that's the same one i had some trouble with too, it's a regular maze. I think you probably forgot to pull one of the levers in one of the towers. If you missed just one, you'll never be able to reach the Sigil stone. So your best bet is to return the way you came, and see if you overlooked something.

Oblivion gates lead to random realms, atleast that's how I've experienced it so far. Does this realm have 3 towers around a larger tower, with retractable bridges? If you miss any one of the levers, you can reach the tallest bridge, and with enough Athletics, Speed and Luck, jump over to the bridge near it.

Nevermind, I managed to find another way in and have taken the Sigil Stone. This one was the one with the Spindle Shrine which was next to the Tower Portal. I had to go through some caves to get to it.
