I am on the quest where the colony gets attacked by so-called Nords. I have started it with Carnius, and he has told me to deliver the armor and weapons to the raiders, but I cant' find them.

I have been up and down the coast looking for them at various times in the night, but they remain elusive. I had the same problem with the main Bloodmoon quests with the Ritual thing. Hunt I think.

If anyone knows when, where or how to get the raiders to appear, I would be very grateful.

Good question. It happened to me once and eventually I went back to a previous save. The raiders are east of Fort Frostmoth on the south coast. IIRC you cross both rivers and you'll see a small boat pulled up on the shore. That is where they should appear. You could try going into the barrow nearby (the one with the skeletal pirates) and resting for an hour or so or even a day. I suppose also you could add them via the console but that might not work. Their names are Valgeir, Ormvard, Bryngrim, Alfbrand, Toralf and Ormund.

I presume you found the other hunters eventually but there are threads about the Ristaag on the forum here if you haven't. Just do a search.

Thanks. I was lookin to the east of Raven Rock , so when I looked to the east of Fort Frostmoth I found the boat straight away. It's a small rowin boat, yeah? Anyway, there was no-one there so I tried to do the rest thing in the barrow, but I couldn't cos I musn't have killed all them skeletons cos it told me that enemies were still nearby. I just done it this morning, so I'll keep tryin till I can get back on this evenin'.

I did manage the Ristaag thing in the end. Yet again, I hadn't been lookin in the right place.

Thanks
