Enchantment Modifiers (Skyrim)

For other uses, see Enchantment.

Enchantment Modifiers are the suffixes (e.g. "___ of Peerless ___") that state the intensity of game-generated magical effects applied to weapons and armors in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

About

The following is a list of Enchantment Modifiers that affect weapons and armor in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. For example, a Steel Sword can be found with certain Enchantments placed upon it. To view what types of enchantments, see the table below. In every other way, the sword is identical to a normal Steel Sword. You can obtain enchantments by disenchanting these enchanted weapons at any Arcane table- the weapon or item will be destroyed in the process.

Table notes:

• Enchantment Level refers to the level of the enchantment. Certain weapons only appear after certain character levels (such as Dwarven Swords).
• Magnitude is the "Strength" of the enchantment. For example, Enervating has a magnitude of 50. Given that it is a "Magicka Damage" enchantment, it has an enchantment effect of +50 Magicka Damage.
