  1. Enchanting
  2.  
  3. Enchantments adds magical effects to both weapons and armor. Under normal circumstances, a weapon or armor that is enchanted cannot be upgraded, and only one enchantment per weapon or armor. Enchantments on weapons add extra effects when attacking, while armor enchantments range from increasing various different abilities. The enchanting skill increases enchantments by a certain amount depending on the enchantment. Mage armor also increases enchantments naturally, and can be combined with the enchantment skill to reach the highest enchantments.
  4. In PvP, the One Handed skill can be equipped for a class, and can be upgraded from novice to master. The enchanting skill makes enchantments stronger, depending on the given enchantment. Apprentice enchanting grants 10% longer enchantment duration on weapons, adding usually one more hit. Adept enchanting makes health, stamina, and magika enchantments stronger on armor by varying amounts. Expert enchanting makes kills with enchanted weapons recharge the enchantment by 10%. Master enchanting allows players in create a class to take two enchantments instead of one, but for half the strength of each. If combined with the master smithing option, then the smithing bonus will still be halved, but then the two enchantments will be decreased by 75% each.
  5.  
  6. Weapon Enchantments: Weapon enchantments add bonuses to weapons for a set amount of uses before the enchantment stops working. Weapon enchantments can be recharged with the soul gem item, which when activated recharges the first completely drained weapon. Targets under the soul trap effect when killed will recharge the lowest drained weapon the user has currently equipped. In a tie, the right hand primary gets priority, followed by the left hand primary, then the right handed secondary, and lastly the left handed secondary. Apprentice enchanting increases the usage of weapon enchantments by 10% rounded up, allowing for enchantments to gain either 1 or 2 extra uses. A final way to recharge weapons is with the expert enchanting skill, which makes it so killing enemies with an enchanted weapon recharges that weapon by 10%, which again will give an extra 1 or two uses. The damage bonus from the elemental enchantments and absorb health can be boosted to do extra points of damage, more so than plain upgrading a weapon, but they can be decreased by certain resistances, as well as suffer from the opportunity cost that the smithing skill provides on upgraded weapons. Also, upgrading weapons increases the base damage, which is helpful when combined with enchantments that fortify the weapon's skill. A possible strategy: with master smithing, a player can take the two negatives of the upgrade bonus and a damage health enchantment on a weapon to gain the other smithing skill perks as well as have an enchantment to benefit from without having too big of a damage penalty.
  7. Weapon enchantments have a school of magic that corresponds with the enchantment. This makes enchantments be categorized in the same way spells are, so any effects that would apply to spells in the corresponding school will also affect the enchantment. This makes fortify spells that make spells cost less make enchantments last longer, as the cost on the enchantment per use decreases by that percentage. Casting effects like overcharging dual spells or silently casting do not apply.
  8. Weapon enchantments must be unlocked by getting kills with each weapon in the same way weapon variants work. Each weapons start of with fire damage, and unlock more with more kills. Enchantments are unlocked relatively faster than weapon variants, and kills count for unlocking more enchantments even if the weapon is not enchanted. Like variants, unlocking an enchantment on one weapon does not unlock it on the rest. Here is a list of weapon enchantments in the order of unlocking:
  9. >Fire Damage (Destruction) - Does 6 (7 with skill, +1 with apprentice destruction) points of fire damage, targets on fire take extra damage. 16 uses.

  22.  
  23. Armor Enchantments: Armor enchantments allow for extra active effects for characters instead of a direct increase in armor rating. Because of the lack of gauntlets, rings, and necklaces, enchantments have been rearranged and balanced. The power of the enchantment described goes from regular armor without the enchantment skill, regular armor with the enchantment skill, mage armor without the enchantment skill, and mage armor with the enchantment skill.
  24. Armor enchantments are all unlocked at the start of the game. This allows for all major play styles to still be useable by new players, and players can build counter sets to add resistances to anything that is becoming centralizing. A list of all enchantments are here:
