Enchanted Weapons (Skyrim)

For other uses, see Enchanted Weapons.

Enchanted weapons can be found as generic random loot throughout Skyrim. This page serves as a guide to the different types of weapons and enchantments.

Variables[]

Typically there are four variables that the game uses to generate enchanted weapons. These are:

Weapon quality - This pertains to the material the weapon is made of - from Iron to Daedric quality.
Weapon class - Varies from Daggers to Warhammers.
Weapon enchantment - The enchantment effect itself.
Enchantment magnitude - There are usually five or six levels of strength that an enchanted weapon may have. These are listed in the tables below.

An example of this would be "Daedric Greatsword of the Vampire." It should be noted that not every single combination of Quality/Class/Magnitude and Enchantment weapons are available in the game.

		of Arcing	Target takes 10 points of shock damage, and half as much Magicka damage.

Soul Trap[]

Quality	Class	Magnitude	Enchantment Modifier
Daedric Dwarven Ebony Elven Glass Iron Orcish Steel	Battleaxe Bow Dagger Greatsword Mace Sword War Axe Warhammer	of Souls	If target dies within 3 seconds, fills a soul gem.
		of Soul Snares	If target dies within 5 seconds, fills a soul gem.

		of Malediction	If target dies within 15 seconds, fills a soul gem.
		of Damnation	If target dies within 20 seconds, fills a soul gem.

The prolonged Soul Trap period becomes increasingly useless as the Dragonborn levels up. Weapon damages will also increase due to smithing, and eventually it will generally take less than 5 seconds to kill a leveled enemy. Therefore, the excess time will be redundant. The only non-boss enemies that can withstand enough damage to last a full 20 seconds are dragons, whose souls are absorbed without needing Soul Trap.

Stamina Damage[]

Quality	Class	Magnitude	Enchantment Modifier
Daedric Dwarven Ebony Elven Glass Iron Imperial Orcish Steel	Battleaxe Bow Dagger Greatsword Mace Sword War Axe Warhammer	of Fatigue	Does 5 points of Stamina damage.

		of Lethargy	Does 25 points of Stamina damage.
		of Exhaustion	Does 30 points of Stamina damage.

		Sanctified	Undead up to level 7 flee for 30 seconds.

		Hallowed	Undead up to level 21 flee for 30 seconds.
		Virtuous	Undead up to level 30 flee for 30 seconds.
		Holy	Undead up to level 40 flee for 30 seconds.

The naming convention for Turn Undead weapons is slightly different. The magnitude of the weapon precedes the quality and the class. i.e. Holy Daedric Warhammer.
