| Golden Saints and Ascended Sleepers are as high as they go, well apart from Vivec that is.
Daedric Wakazashis and Shortswords are as good as it gets for self enchantment purposes, there are a few tasty enchanted shortswords/daggers in the game as well though.Spoiler: Fyrse Hags on Solstheim carry nice ones, and there's a good one in 6th house base SE of Gnisis.
Getting spells through on other spell casters is all about timing. As you've noticed if you both cast at roughly the same time the spells collide and nullify each other, missile weapons can also collide with a cast spell as well.
CE effects I use are Restore Fatigue and/or health, fortify attribute or skill (have to go to Mournhold for the latter). Resist magic isn't cost effective, and I can't see the point of CE dispel. |
