How to Cure Diseases in Oblivion Remastered

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is a vast and immersive RPG filled with quests, exploration, and dynamic interactions. However, one of the more challenging aspects of the game is dealing with diseases, which can weaken your character and hinder your progress. This guide will explain how diseases work, their effects, and the best ways to cure them—including the dreaded Vampirism.

Understanding Diseases in Oblivion Remastered

Diseases in Oblivion are more than just a minor inconvenience—they can significantly reduce your attributes, making combat, magic, and stealth more difficult. Contracting a disease is surprisingly easy:

• Fighting infected creatures (such as rats, wolves, or undead)
• Failing to block or evade attacks from diseased enemies
• Being in unsanitary or cursed locations

Once infected, your character will suffer stat debuffs until cured. Some diseases are mild, while others can be crippling if left untreated.

How to Cure Diseases in Oblivion Remastered

Fortunately, curing diseases is straightforward. Here are the four main methods:

1. Eat Ingredients with Cure Disease Effect

The simplest way to cure a disease is by consuming specific alchemy ingredients that have the Cure Disease effect. These include:

• Clannfear Claws
• Mandrake Root
• Shepherd’s Pie
• Root Pulp

Simply eat one raw (no alchemy required), and the disease will be removed.

2. Drink a Cure Disease Potion

If you prefer potions, you can craft or buy a Cure Disease Potion. However, since eating raw ingredients already works, this method is less efficient unless you have pre-made potions.

3. Pray at a Chapel Altar

Every major city in Oblivion has a chapel where you can pray at the altar to cure all diseases for free. This is one of the easiest and most reliable methods.4. Cast the Cure Disease Spell

If you specialize in Restoration Magic, you can purchase or create a Cure Disease spell. It’s a Journeyman-level spell, costing around 140 gold from spell vendors.

Can You Cure Vampirism?

Porphyric Hemophilia is a unique disease that eventually turns you into a Vampire. If caught early (within three in-game days), you can cure it like any other disease. However, once you fully transform, standard cures won’t work.

How to Cure Full Vampirism

To cure Vampirism, you must complete the "Rising at Dawn" quest:

Visit any chapel and speak to a priest.

Obtain five Grand Soul Gems (filled with Grand Souls).

Collect vampire dust from defeated vampires.

Visit a witch or alchemist to brew the cure.

Once completed, you’ll be human again—but be cautious, as you can still be reinfected!

Final Tips for Managing Diseases

• Always carry Cure Disease ingredients (Mandrake Root is easy to find).
• Visit chapels regularly for free healing.
• Avoid diseased creatures if your stats are already weakened.
• Act fast if infected with Porphyric Hemophilia—before turning into a Vampire!

By following this guide, you’ll keep your character healthy and ready to face the dangers of Cyrodiil without unnecessary debuffs. Happy adventuring!
