Nintendo Treehouse talks crafting in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Posted on November 7, 2017 by (@NE_Brian) in News, Switch

The Nintendo Treehouse Log has added in a new entry that offers insight into the game’s crafting mechanics.

Here’s an excerpt:

In this post, we’ll check out the three “main” skill trees for crafting in Skyrim:

– Smithing
– Alchemy
– Enchanting

Each of these skill trees plays off the others. Say you use Smithing to craft a righteous new mace for your paladin-themed character. You could then enchant that mace with Turn Undead to send the reanimated horde fleeing in fear. Cool, right? But enough hypothetical fluff. Let’s get to some details!

Smithing: Forging your destiny, one ingot at a time

First up, Smithing. A good smith can take various ores and animal parts found in the world and craft them into what can become some of the most powerful gear in the game. Typically, you’ll stock up on materials from merchants or dungeon escapades and head over to a forge to create whatever piece of equipment you have your eyes on, be it simple steel or more exotic materials such as glass, Dwemer metal, or even Dragonbone.
