Is there a reason why there are no Dolmen's in Hew's Bane, Wrothgar and Gold Coast?

    My opinion? Story wise they are all after you defeat Molag Bal

    Yes, basically by the time Wrothgar came out the timeline has moved on and no new Dolmens are being constructed by the Worm Cult, no new chains being send down from Coldharbour. The Planemeld has essentially finished, except perhaps in some weird way in the Imperial City

    Almost as an afterthought - there are none in the starter realms either... hmm

    So why are there no old unused dolmens in the DLC zones?

    True, but I'm an advocate for having dolmen in those DLC areas. Would've been so nice if it was implemented with this latest One Tamriel patch. Could be something along the line of Molag Bal's resurgence or such.

    Wrothgar does have an unfinished dolmen. I guess the Orcs didn't take too well to the Worm Cult being there.

    The Gold Coast and Hew's Bane are such small areas that Dolmens nearby (plenty in nearby Cyrodiil and nearby Alik'r Desert) were sufficient for Coldharbour operations to pull those areas inside Coldharbour as planned.

    Molag Bal he did not buy any of the DLC.

    Khajiit she hurt him and then stole all his crowns so he could not spend them on crates.

    Game design to help integrate new players into it smoothly back when you were forced to start a new character there after going through the prison.

    It's the same reason there are no working dolmens in Craglorn - it was designed as content to be done only after you did the main quest line and stopped them from being built.

    Would be nice if they reintroduced them with new landmass DLC, but since they've set precedent I doubt it'll change.

    I don't think it's ever spelled out, but if I were to guess I'd say someone smashed the remains to bits and scattered the pieces--after all they're already bloody and desecrated, it would only take a few cultists to reuse the things otherwise.

    An alternative explanation would be that the Hew's Bane and Gold Coast regions are just small enough not to happen to contain any within the map borders--Wrothgar and Craglorn both have one (Wrothgar's admittedly being new).

    But I do think it would be nice to see the wreckage of a few in future DLCs, or maybe meet a Dolmen clean-up crew whose job it is to get rid of them, or something.

    Khajiit she loses nothing. It is only possible to refer to this one in the right context yes.

    As in 'this one deeply dislikes con crates'.

    I would advocate for having dolemns in all zones too, but not in same fashion as usual. Broken after defeating molag bal, but used for other events (like world boss, or craglorn style group events). Such sight must surely attract many evil forces

    There would have been Dolmens in Craglorn too. It is part of a quest where we (don't read if you don't wanna get spoiled) find out that an army of atronachs was summoned by mages to stop the dolmens being build.
