The following are a list of the materials used in Smithing.
Name | Rarity | Description
|
|||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Brass Ingot | Uncommon
|
2,500 | 165
|
A metallic alloy typically used to temper lower-tier weapons and armor, Brass looks similar to gold... but it is, most assuredly, not. | |
Chaurus Chitin | Common
|
1,925 | 77
|
Sourced from the exoskeletons of giant - and terrifying - subterranean insects, Chaurus Chitin is strong, light, and perfectly suited for pieces of armor. | |
Daedra Heart | Common
|
4,750 | 190
|
The evil and otherworldly Daedra Heart is the core component of any powerful Daedric weapon or armor. | |
Dragon Bones | Common
|
7,475 | 299
|
Dragons are largely presumed to be extinct, and so an ancient Dragon Bone is highly prized for its incredible durability, which a talented craftsman can mold into power weapons and armor. | |
Dragon Scales | Common
|
7,475 | 299
|
A Dragon Scale is nearly as tough as its bones, and in the hands of a highly skilled blacksmith, can be used to create some of the finest weapons and armor in all Tamriel. | |
Dwarven Metal Ingot | Common
|
775 | 31
|
The secret to creating a Dwarven Ingot was lost with the sudden disappearance of the Dwemer millennia ago, but blacksmiths can still melt down and reuse the scraps that remain... | |
Ebony Ingot | Common
|
3,025 | 121
|
The Ebony Ingot is the condensed, smith-ready version of a volcanic glass so rare and durable, some believe it to be the crystallized blood of the god Lorkhan himself. | |
Gold Ingot | Rare
|
15,500 | 1,023
|
Most gold in the Empire is minted into coins, but in the hands of a skilled blacksmith, a Gold Ingot can instead be transformed into the finest jewelry. | |
Iron Ingot | Common
|
125 | 5
|
A common metal used for creating basic weapons and armor, Iron is also used in the crafting and tempering of Steel and Silver items. | |
Leather | Common
|
200 | 8
|
Blacksmiths willing to add tanning capabilities to their smithies can utilize the resulting Leather to produce impressive light armor. | |
Malachite Ingot | Common
|
1,925 | 77
|
When a skilled blacksmith blends Malachite with orichalcum and moonstone, the resulting Glass weapons and armor are far stronger than the name might suggest... | |
Moonstone Ingot | Common
|
1,225 | 49
|
Moonstone is the primary component used for crafting Elven weapons and armor. | |
Orichalcum Ingot | Common
|
500 | 20
|
Orichalcum is a cornerstone of Orcish metalwork, but the unique ore can be forged by blacksmiths of all races. | |
Pelt | Common
|
125 | 5
|
Pelts (i.e. untanned animal hides) are typically used to create armor that offers less damage resistance than leather, but better protection against the elements. | |
Quicksilver Ingot | Common
|
1,225 | 49
|
Quicksilver is prized among Blacksmiths for its use in crafting powerful arms and armor, including Elven and Daedric. | |
Scrib Chitin | Common
|
325 | 13
|
Scrib Chitin comes from the shell of a scrib, the larval young of large insectoids called Kwama, which are farmed in Morrowind. | |
Silver Ingot | Common
|
325 | 13
|
A beautiful metal of surprising versatility, Silver is used for jewelry as well as etched or alloyed into weapons and armor. | |
Stalhrim | Common
|
3,025 | 121
|
The enchanted ice known as "Stalhrim" comes from the island of Solstheim, in the Sea of Ghosts. | |
Steel Ingot | Common
|
200 | 8
|
Steel is used in the crafting of heavy weapons and armor, but doing so requires at least one upgrade to your Smithy. |
