I have only found 4... 3 of them being the original 3 standing stones at the start of the game. However, I have changed between the 3 stones a small number of times and it popped for me. I have a feeling it's glitched lol

Can 100% confirm this achievement is glitched as I have only found 4/13 and got it to pop. I have found Warrior / Thief / Mage / Lover. I equipped them in this order Mage > Warrior > Lover > Thief

So I've got 11/13, I fast travelled to the Guardian stones to try the order that the above comment suggested and it just unlocked as I fast travelled there.

Haha, I had seven and after reading these comments I fast travelled to the guardian stones and it popped instantly without even selecting a stone.

It's as though fast travelling back to the stones sometimes results in rediscovering them perhaps...

@Dragonborn Gear Yeah, same as in the xbox 360 edition (they never fixed this) travelling to already discovered stones also counts as discovering it. It'll almost always unlock early as most people travel to or come past stones they have discovered before.

You don't have to activate the stones, just discover the location

I can confirm that you don't need to find all of the stones for the achievement to pop. I fast travelled back to a few that I had already discovered.

As of 8/26/22 going to the same stones over and over will pop the achievement.

Not a difficult achievement to get, slightly time consuming to obtain, easy and theoretically done at any level if you put the game difficulty on Novice

I found it easiest to use a map from the internet and then cross reference in game.

1. Go to this online map- HIDE ALL items- then re-enable Standing Stone

https://mapgenie.io/skyrim/maps/skyrim

2. From the main menu - Map in-game locate the approximate location of a Standing stone based on the online map. You can make a mark that will be visible on your HUD with the A button (Set Destination)

3. Now one by one go to each Standing Stone location from the online map until you find it in-game. When you find it text will appear, and an icon that you can fast travel to will appear on your map. This is required for each of the 13 stones

-You can use the compass on the HUD while in game to help find the Standing Stone in the game world

4. Achievement should pop shortly after finding the last Standing Stone or after fast traveling/restarting the game

I encountered a very strange bug with this trophy. I found about 8 stones. Periodically, I teleported to them and got a trophy. Like this.

+1 to prev. post
3-4 stones are open. While the farmer periodically moved to the first stones, one of these movements yielded a trophy.

By the end of the story, I only had the first 3 stones open (thief, mage and warrior) and returned to them only about 3 times. in the statistics it was indicated 9. then I found 2 more. And then I moved to 2 of them. trophy dropped

There is no need to walk on all the stones; you can return to those already found.
The meaning of the trophy is “visit 13 stones”, not “find 13 unique stones”.

A glitchy achievement that unlocks differently for everyone. For some it is unlocked based on five found stones, for others it is unlocked at all by default. I got it on the 7th keeper.
