Yes the only way to Enchant a weapon or artical That is worn is with the Alter of
Enchanting, so eighter Down load a MOD that has this Item included in the mod or
Become a Mage and join the Mage guild.
NOTE: The most important thing to keep track of when creating a new magical weapon is the number of uses that your enchantment will get before you need to use a soul gem to recharge the item. The more powerful the enchantment the fewer uses you get before you will need to recharge it and the more it will cost you to enchant the item. The size of the soul Gem that you use to create the weapon will also Dictate the charge that will be needed each time you recharge that weapon, the Soul Gem Enchantment points are as follows:
Petty soul gem = charge 150
lesser soul gem = charge 300
Common soul gem = charge 800
Greater soul gem = charge 1,200
Grand soul gem = charge 1,600
If you use to many enchantment on one item you may end up with a weapon that does alot of damage with one hit, but you only get 10 hits before all the enchantments are used and you need to recharge again and that can be very expensive.
One other Important Item is that worn Items never need to be recharged they stay as a constant effect as long as your wearing the item but a worn Item can only have one enchantment on them where as a weapon can have a few.
Also its not a good Idea to enchant every Item you wear with the same effect it's alot better to have a different type protection or effect on each item in order to get a bonus for each different situation you may come up against. What good is it to have 15% Cold protection on each of 5 items your wearing when you run into a Flame Atronach? That just spells a hot death and you with cold feet.
