Luck

[Zoltan]

It's a good idea to take luck as primary ability. It gets no multiplier. How can I fortify my luck? I mean item enchanting. My magic skills are mystism alter and restoration. Can I enchant item even with 5 enchant skill? where I can find good magic items?

use a spell name Fortify Luck spell.

if you are too weak to enchant. go to any enchanting merchant and have they enchant things for you.

good items? go to adventure, search tombs,cave,ruins,dungeons or even someone's house. touch any statue when you see it. they'll might talk to you.

1. Learn a fortify attribute spell from somebody (look in the various towns until you find someone who sells the spell).
2. Get a grand soul gem, a soul trap spell, cast it and whack a golden saint!
2. Run, do not walk, to the nearest mage/enchanter, and let them make you the item. With lower level enchant skills, you may very well be unsuccessful, and if you are, your soul gem will be destroyed. If you have an enchanter do it (like Galbadie in the Balmora Mages' Guild), they will charge you through the nose but they're 100% successful.

#1 above is because you can't enchant an item with a spell you don't know.

This forum is great. You are too kind helpful and benevolent. My magic skills are restore,alter and myst. Soul trap is myst spell as I know. So I dont need enchantment skill. Other people will enchant my items. But I need soul trap spell (mystism skill) and a gem ok I got it. I better buy some spells. My sp is too low. My int is 30 but I'll raise it. Even in 40 it makes 40 SP. My skills are

*Security (must)
*Sneak (must too)
*Speechcraft (I like it)
*Longblade (best)
*Armorer (useful and enjoying)
*Heavy Armor (best)
*Marksman (for ranged combat)
*Restoration (useful)
*Mystism (must!for teleportation and soul trap)
*Alteration (must!for levitation water breath and such)

I take "warrior" as sign it gives +10 damage (it's amazing!!) my character is warrior/rogue/spellcaster type. should I take "mage" sign instead of warrior?? to gain more spell points. 40-50 spell points (or max 90-100) will be too low for a character like mine? (uses only teleport soul trap alter and restore spells) I'll be very happy if you review my character.

your character is okay.

about mana. try The Apperentice. it give bonus mana 1.5 x intelligence. so when your intelligence is 100, you'll have a total of 250 mana. but it also give you -50% resistance to magicka. which of course you can easily remedy by having resistance to magicka spell or enchantment.

or you can try the one that give bonus mana 2.5 x intelligence ( forgot the sign name ). the bad thing about this is that you'll get stunted magicka. which to me is very very severe penalty.

Oh god it's a great idea. I'll have %50 lesser resistance to magic but I can dispel this effect right? With enchanted items which protects against magic I think am I right? Is there any other way? I mean a special quest item etc such?

One more question, if the enchantment is the only way what kind of soul I need? can I do it without golden saint? thanks

[Kakero]

the -50% resistance to magicka is permenant, you can't dispel it. but you can get over it by having enchantment. try checking the link of unique item that I put.

ascended sleeper ( the one that look like an elephant with several trunks )also is good.

[Zoltan]

Where I can find this list?

[Kakero]

here you go. check the amulet or ring section. ps, it's very spoilerish

unique item

General enchanting rule:
Golden saints', ascended sleepers' and lord Vivec's are the only souls which allow you to create permanent effect items.
All other souls create only cast when used/cast when strikes items - winged twilight and dremoras being the most powerful (more enchantment power) souls among all. (you can use those purple soulgems to trap them, no need to get the greater ones)
