What do they do? I'm seeing hints that they unlock some sort of tomb somewhere but I have no idea where and I have no quests remaining to complete. Help?
I apologize that this is a repetitive topic.
Frostback Basin Shards?!

Bump. See if anyone knows this on the east coast morning cycle.

They open the Winter Door at the northern-west area of the map, inside the room is a bunch of loot and a coffin that gives +12 cold resistance (or maybe it was +9, I can't remember the exact amount).

Anyone got a pic? Presumably it's in the Tevinter Ruin that you turn on the trail to Hakkon's lair from?

Here's where it is:

And here's what it looks like:

Make a hard left. Go as far west as you can, you might be missing that one.

Can you take a screenshot of the map? I can compare it to my map and see if there's anything that's been overlooked because I'm also having a heck of a time finding it.

Is it located near any landmarks, fast travel spots, etc.? Just so I have some kind of reference point.

There's a bunch of stuff over there, just go as far left as you can and follow the edge of the map till you can't go farther. Eventually you'll find the spot you need to climb.
Its further south than that map on this page in the thread, if that helps. But seriously, just push west.

Did anyone else catch the reference to one of the Forgotten Ones on the inscription inside the tomb?

I was having the same problem, 8/12 shards and could not for the life of me find the third ocularum. Thanks to the vague advice of "go left" and a lot of wasted time I found it. It's on a rock outcropping near the cabin where you meet Sigrid the Exile. It's just a little South of the Ridgeline camp. The reason it is was difficult for me to find is because it never appeared on the minimap. Alas, (and I hope others that have had trouble finding it do not also have this problem) when I finally looked through it, it showed me "0/0 shards." I was very thorough in my searching the area anyways and did not reveal a single shard. This is officially a glitch.

I can't find the last 4 shards either, and it says 0/0 if you've already collected the shards that particular oculara revealed.

I understand that, however the problem is I had not collected those shards yet. So now it seems it is impossible for me to complete the related quests.

Oh... Which means I might not have collected them either. Great.

Huh. so either Bioware fixed the issue or I had a massive brain malfunction. Either way the glitch is fixed. the three ocularums are present and functional. One, as I said, is on a rock outcropping near the cabin where you meet Sigrid the Exile. It's just a little South of the Ridgeline camp. the second is directly north of the main starting area on a tree platform. The third is on a large rock jutting out of the ground just north west of where you meet the fisherman whose boat you need.
Hope this helps!

Well, that's embarrassing. It was the one directly north of the starting camp, I don't even... O_O

The three Ocularums are
1. Just N of original camp on a tree balcony, revealing four shards on the SW corner of the map.
2. Just S of Ridgeline camp, near Sigrid's Hut, revealing four shards on the Mid-west section of the map.
3. Just S of the Swampside Camp & N of the Dock, on the N side of a outcropping, revealing four shards in the central S section of map.

Bug is still not fixed or I am missing something. I found the skull by the swamp camp and it does not show me any shards at all

Hello! So yah, I now have this bug... I've re-checked all 3 Ocularums and all say 0/0. When I set the quest "The Mystery of Winter" as my active quest, it says I have 10/12 shards, so I'm currently missing 2. I've already done the other quest back in Forbidden Oasis so I can't get 2 extra shards from there.
I wonder though if it has something to do with openeing the map real quick after picking up a shard. For a split second, at least twice that I can remember, when I picked up a shard and opened my map to set a marker it said 9/12 in the quest tracker, but then when I leave the map it has the proper number.
In anycase, I'm kinda screwd at the moment
Might just go kill the dragon and leave Frostback Basin, then go kill Corypheus to finish the game and then be done with it all.
