A few weapon questions...

Recommended Posts

In the enchant screen, the ebony staff has 90 enchant points. That is a lot for a weapon: most have 10 or less and only a few have 20 or more. The bonemold longbow is one of the best enchantable weapons with, I think, 40 enchant points. The ebony scimitar is also very good, although rare.

 

Just to give you an idea of the scale, shields are one of the best enchantable items. Even a lowly steel tower shield has 75 enchant points and you can buy them all over. A glass tower shield has 45, which is low for a tower shield. The daedric tower shield has 225 enchant points, which makes it possibly the best item to enchant. As you can see, weapons are poor by comparison, with the ebony staff being way ahead of the crowd. (Actually, all staffs have better enchantment points than most weapons, although none come close to the ebony staff).

 

(Note: in TESCS the enchantment points appear 10x larger, so the ebony staff has 900 enchantment points. I am not sure why the scale is different, but the game must divide the value by 10.)

How many deadric arrows are there in the game I have 10 and I'm afraid to use the because I keep them in my collection

 

Sounds about right, I have found about that many. They may however appear as random loot and you may be able to get them at the flecther in Vivec (as far as I know the only source of renewable enchanted arrows)

 

I have enchanted my Daedric Long bow with 50 secs PARALYZE !

 

Why? If you read the earlier threads you will see this has no effect. I use fortify Strength to reduce the weight penalties, but fortify skill is just as good. For reference I managed to get 10 pts fort str on it meaning an enchantment value of 50 (BTW talking about a Daedric L.bow here).

 

There are also tradersw ho do silver/glass arrows (esp in Mournhold) meaning you can get arrows capable of taking out the hard stuff.

 

Ebony staff has loads of enchant points (more than the daedric can't work this one out as there is therefore no advatage to a daedric staff - just its heaviar and maybe looks coll,er)

There are more Daedric Arrows than that, I have more than 50 and I haven't bought any nor IIRC am I running any mods that introduce them. Unfortunately I can't remember where I found them. If UESP were working you could have found out there but... There are several Daedric sites etc. where you can find them in chests. Often these are stuck high up on tiny galleries and ledges you can only reach by levitating and are not always easy to see. I recommend you enchant an amulet with constant levitation as this gives you the best chance of exploring these sites in depth. (Try Ashalmawia, Maelkashishi, Anudnabia, Kora-dur and Berendas Dumner stronghold but I make no guarantees.)
