This article provides information on dungeons occupied by bandits or that contain bandit containers. Bandit dungeons are good places to obtain light armor, as all bandits will be equipped with such armor. Bandit bosses and boss chests may wear or contain enchanted light armor.

In addition to the dungeons listed here, most campsites are occupied by bandits, and there are 50 locations along roads where bandits may appear.

Bandit Dungeons[edit]

This table lists all dungeons in Oblivion that contain multiple bandits, a boss-level bandit, and/or a boss-level bandit chest. There are some occasional standard and healing bandit chests in other dungeons that are not included in this list.
