Making weapons enchantable

[hitman944]

I could use some help because i looked for it in CK but i have no idea how to do it. What i need is to make a weapon that cant be enchanted to be enchantable.

What is the weapon in question?

[hitman944]

I made Karliah's bow (the NPC version) craftable but cant find a way to make it enchantable but as far as i know every weapon would use the same method Edited November 27, 2012 by hitman944

Aside from the obvious ability to enchant unenchanted items in-game, you can add an enchantment to a weapon or armor piece in the CK. This allows creating unique and powerful enchantments not available otherwise, but does preclude players being able to enchant things themselves (though if every weapon had Absorb Stamina I wouldn't need to!). Open up the weapon's properties page and note the drop down menu by "Enchanting". All enchantments in the CK are listed here; If you created your own, it would also appear in this list. Choose whichever you wish and look beneath it to the field "Enchantment" which is how much magic is stored. The higher the number the more times it may be used before recharging. 3000 is equivalent to a grand soul gem and a 0 here sets the amount of charges to infiinite.

I appreciate that you are trying to help but I want players be able to enchant the bow themselves with whichever enchantment they want (only those that are meant for weapons)

In the box he was talking about, make sure the bow doesn't have an enchant already. Some of NPC only weapons do, and if it doesn't have a description in game it may look empty but still be considered enchanted already.

I might have missed that I will check that when I get back home. In the meantime feel free to post other suggestions

I checked what khotus said but just as i thought there is no enchantment on it

Can anyone help me out with this ?
