• Skyrim Walkthrough Daedric Artifacts

In Skyrim, the hero ventures into the Midden dungeon below the College of Winterhold to find the Augur of Dunlain, a divination artifact. In the Midden Dark, the hero encounters the Daedric relic puzzle, also known as the Daedric-hand-and-rings puzzle. The hero is then prompted to solve the Daedric relic puzzle, whereupon he will uncover hidden treasures.

Skyrim Special Edition supports Console Commands and Cheat Codes on PC. Check out list of all the available cheat codes in this remastered version. Improving Deadric artifacts to legendary. Discussion in 'General Skyrim Discussion' started. I've found that if I make or improve a weapon it will only go to Flawless or Epic until I use it for a while then it will go to Legendary when I go to improve it. Make Legendary Daedric Artifact. If this doesn't let you upgrade it to Legendary. It might be a bit overpowered, but I find it annoying and immersion breaking to have to recharge the wabbajack and others constantly. There is a separate mod that removes the need to recharge the daedric artifacts, but it and your mod overwrite each other(i like your flavor text on the wabbajack:P). Is there an existing patch for this?

How to Solve the Daedric Relic Puzzle

The hero's quest to solve the mysteries of the Eye of Magnus eventually brings him to the Midden. There are two ways to access the Midden:

1. A trapdoor in the ground in the Hall of Countenance within the College of Winterhold.
2. Another trapdoor in the ground at the far end of the courtyard within the college.

The search for the Augur of Dunlain takes the hero from the Midden into the Midden Dark. The monsters in this area are relatively easy to defeat with dual destruction magic spells and a follower. In my opinion, the most difficult monster is the Ice Wraith, an agile, melee-based attacker that deals high damage.

In the Midden Dark, the hero will encounter the Midden Dark Daedric hand relic. This hand relic has five fingers. The hero is allowed to place rings on four of them. To the right of the relic, there is a key lying on a table. To solve the puzzle, the hero must:

1. Pick up the key and head back to the College of Winterhold.
2. Look for the Arcanaeum, which is the library of the college.
3. Upon entering the Arcanaeum, turn left and head for a chest that has a master lock on it.
4. Either pick the master lock or use the Investigator's Key to unlock the chest.
5. Pick up the four rings–Katarina's Ornamental Ring, Pithi's Ornamental Ring, Balwen's Ornamental Ring, and Treoy's Ornamental Ring–in the chest. (Note: The hero should use stealth when picking up the rings to prevent the librarian, Urag gro-Shub, from noticing the theft.)
6. Return to the hand relic in the Midden Dark and put the rings on the following fingers:

With the placement of the ornamental rings in this order, the hand will clench, turning into a fist, and a Daedric servant called Velehk Sain will appear. The hero must bargain with Velehk Sain. He will eventually ask for the hero to release him from the Midden dungeon. Once the hero releases Velehk Sain, he will give the hero a map to the hidden Daedric treasure.

Locating the Daedric Treasure

The map given to the hero by Velehk Sain indicating the location of the Daedric is not very useful. Instead, the hero should simply head west from Winterhold, then use the map above to locate the treasure. Around the area I indicated, the hero should see the Statue of Talos. If facing this statue, the hero will notice the treasure chest on the ground to the right. Pick up all the treasures here, then head up to the Statue of Talos to receive a blessing and retrieve a book near the statue which will increase the hero's one handed weapon skill. Thus, in addition to getting the treasure, the hero also gets some nice skill rewards from around the area.

• i've always been wondering if you can improve weapon artifacts like the ebony blade.

  • It varies from artifact to artifact. According to this wiki the ebony blade (my favorite) cannot be upgraded , while the ebony mail can be. So just check ahead of time since you'll want to make sure you have the right perks and materials.

  • Yep some can some can't, either just try it on the grindstone and see if it appears on the menu or look at the wiki page. They also often don't have a perk related to them so you'll need smithing enchantments and potions to get them up to legendary.

  • As far as I can tell you at the moment:

    Ebony Mail = Yes

    Savior's Hide = Yes

    Volendrung = Yes

    Mehrunes' Razor = Yes

    Ebony Blade = No

    Dawnbreaker = Yes

    Mace of Molag Bal = Yes

    Spellbreaker = Yes

    These are the Artifacts that count as weapons/armor

  • If you want to 'improve' the Ebony blade i'd make sure to use perks in the two-hand skill tree. Also, wear apparel with the two-hand enchantment. Other than those two methods you cant improbe the Ebony Blade.
