PresentationGreetings
Good morning everyone, with
@Uzzgrock, we decided to share our love for Imperial Sewers that lie deep beneath the Imperial City. As any person who played Oblivion too much, I remain deeply nostalgic of the whole city, and in TESO its sewers appear to be as beautiful and lively than in the original game. Withal, with house containers sold for Tel Var in the Dragon Bones Patch, Imperial City has regained a bit of well deserved popularity.
Achievements
Thus, we will present here most achievements that are sewer related, and how the mechanics behind them work. We will first explain the
Cunning Scamp Exterminator and
Trove Scamp Exterminator achievements. These two achievements are among the most time consuming ones in game, yet hours of play can be saved knowing how to efficiently farm these. We will then focus on
Xivkyn's Bane achievement by detailing the pattern behind these bosses, in order to make your encounters with them easier. We will also talk about the Imperial Lightbringer achievement, which consists of killing Molag Bal's avatar in the middle of the sewers. Doing so can reward you with a unique
Soul-Shriven skin and
Stonefire Scamp pet if you are lucky.
The rest
All Skyshards locations will also be indicated on the map, as well as the location of fixed bosses that appear on your map. Killing them all grants you the Sewer Subjugator achievement, and finding all points of interest the Imperial Sewers Pathfinder.
Last but not least, we will present you a bonus event, some easter eggs, and some out of the map views of Imperial City. For a better readability, all sections and images will be hidden under spoiler tags.
All maps can be found at the bottom of the file in their dedicated section. We hope they will help you in your hunt.

Thanks
If you see people from different factions not fighting each other in Sewers, they are likely farming scamps, bosses or skyshards. Kill them if you can, but please stop reporting them for nothing. These achievements require a heavy grind and achievers' life is already hard enough without having to justify their acts to a hater wanting to report them. If your friends are from another faction still don't hesitate to farm with them and I'm pretty sure Zenimax will never reproach you that.
Congratulations for reading the post till here! We hope Imperial Sewers will be teeming with life again. In case you plan on obtaining the aforementioned achievements, we hope you'll have less of a struggle to find groups for it and that your farm will be quicker than the one of most of the people who got it before that guide.
