ok, in Sooarthal doing the College questline, there are these 6 pillars and I have absolutely no IDEA how they're supposed to go. Does anyone know how I'm supposed to know?

usually in the room with the pillars there are plaques with the symbols for each pillar. Look around my friend.

look around for what? I've been looking and I cannot find any clues ANYWHERE.

If I remember rightly, the plaques with the symbols for each pillar are on the wall above and behind the pillar.

I think the animals are placed BEHIND the pillars (ie, the wall behind the pillar...)

ok, so if I look above the rotating pillars and behind them I can find the correct animal symbol?

Yes. Look up around 35°... so, it's REALLY obvious actually.

Like when I got the Dragonstone for tha Wizard and that door with the 3 rotating things... instead of doing the obvious thing like checking the hand for a clue... I promptly guess EVERY logical combination until one is correct.

Oh, I did just the same... thing is, I've got the guide as a gift, and when i stuggle for half an hour to find something like this (which i did with the six pillars), i search the book and ofcourse then i smack my forehead, behind the pillars, stupid 'solution' ... Sigh

No, I guessed combinations for like 20 minutes on the thing until I finally guessed one right. When I got the Ebony hand from the Stormcloak quest and the guy shouts "maybe there's something on the hand that tells the correct alignment" I smack my forehead so hard there's a bruise there.

Yeah, that's me as well. I tried to do some kind of weird logical order like snake eats fish, bear eats snake, etc. I forgot to to simply look at the hand for clues.

I think I just gave up, and console'd the door away. I figured once I'm asking online for help, I've forfeit my chance to do it legit anyway xD

I suppose we have all learned our lessons now... no overthinking, the answer is usually .... ''RIGHT THERE''
