Scrolls and Souls.

Well, i've decided to harvest a few daedra. where can i find a reliable source of soul gems/summon atronach/dremora scrolls.
if possible i'd love to try a golden saint, as long as the value of the gem+soul is more than the value of the soul gem and scroll.

if any of that made sense, plz give me a source of scrolls/soul gems

Daedric shrines always have enormous numbers of Daedra wandering around, though usually Ogrims, Golden Saints, Hungers, Winged Twilights, Clannfear, Scamps, and Atronachs can only be found outside, while Daedroth and Dremora can be found inside and outside. If you take the offerings from the shrine, the guys outside will respawn, so you can save just inside the door and keep reloading until a Golden Saint or two show up.

As for your scrolls, just buy a Soul Trap spell. It doesn't take very much Mysticism to cast it with great success, and it's only 6 Magicka, so you can trap all you want, even if you're a completely magicless character.

now that wld be the clever thing. me having mystcism as a minor skill n all, and frequenting shrines.

i however decided to buy some scrolls of ffylugis-gem feeder, and travel the world looking for a scroll of summon flame atronach. ifeel sooo clever

Ooh! Even better idea! One of the spell merchants in Tel Branora, I believe, sells Summon Golden Saint. Simply have a high alchemy skill, and make tons of potions that boost your luck, which will allow you to make even better potions that boost your luck, so that it's in the 50,000 range. Then, using even more powerful potions that fortify your magicka, cast the spell repeatedly, trap it, then sell it.

Voila! It's that simple!

No no no. Make 400 potions of fortify luck. It's much simpler.

There's a chest off Seyda Neen, underwater, which I found recently. I don't think it was placed there by a mod. It contains a few weapons, several with moderate enchantments. One of them is called an "Ancient Sword," and it allows you to conjure a Frost Atronach. It's most interesting effect, though, is that when dropped, it summons a Daedric Lord.

I'll try running a console check (ORI) on the item when I get back to playing, and see if I can figure out whether it's associated with a mod, or not. If the latter, you might want to go skimming underwater right along the coast, looking for that chest.

SOUL GEMS - best place to find them is in mournhold, craftsman's hall, upstairs, elbert nermac the enchanter. he has an unlimited supply of all sould gem types, and i am pretty sure he has ephys's gem feeder. i trained up my conjuration and use the mantle of woe and summon my own creatures... a good place for ogrims and golden siants are in the grazelands region. they are everywhere, and they carry nice things. the golden saints i mean.

In Sadrith Mora, near the Council House there is a little Market Place and if you go up a 'vine' there will be a little Bosmer with odd looking brown hair, taunt him and kill, he carries a very cool amulet that summons a Flame Artronach for 120 secs!!!

!~**Enjoy**~!

Thanx for the comment on my *old* Avatar, do you like my new one?

Is there any way to cut out the middle man and just buy soul gems with souls already in them?

Dark Master · #13 (**permalink**) 07-08-2004, 10:23 AM

Yes, BUT they will be extremely expensive if you want anything decent (for a CE item the cost will be 80,000 for the gem, plus a hell of a lot for the enchantment).

Other than the Enchanter in the Mages Guild in Balmora (which are very easy pickings) you should go to the Telvanni Council House in Sadrith Mora, if you go in then turn right and go down, very far down till the the first landing you get to, go to the right and there will be an enchanter who sells soul gems, you can steal them easily off the shelf, there are like 3 or 4 with souls in there

Most enchanters sell full soul gems. Off the top of my head, I can think of both the caldera and the Balmora mage's guild. Balmora, especially is wonderful, since you can get them free. Just join the guild and do one or two quests for Ajira before she asks you to go upstairs and put a fake soul gem in the desk while whatsherface is gone. While you're there, you can just take all the rest as well!
The guy in Caldera has quite a few too, I think, but he won't barter with you until you're a high rank in the mage's guild. Why not just go on a soul trapping spree, though? There's so much more satisfaction in it! Don't worry, you *probably won't* get killed by a big, bad daedra...
