Iron Weapons (Oblivion)

Iron is the lowest and most common metal found in weapons and armor in Tamriel. Composed primarily of the element of the same name, Iron weapons and armor are durable despite requiring only limited craftsmanship. Most iron weapons and armor in the game have a fairly crude appearance and are likely melted and hammered into their current shape without any other metal or substance (such as carbon, which would result in steel) added to the mix.

Weapons
Like steel, iron also has "fine iron" weapons, which are generally lighter, worth more, and do slightly more damage, but are rarer in the game world.

Lastly, there are a few "rusty iron" weapons which are deficient in quality compared to standard iron weapons.

Notes: "Base Value" refers to the actual value without mercantile or disposition affecting it. "Base Damage" refers to the base amount of damage an item can do, assuming maximum stats and skill.
