Some clothing like Skirts and Robes can even be worn overtop of other clothing. If you put that enchant on both rings and on an amulet you'd heal yourself for 12pts/sec which would make your character invulnerable against most enemies in the game.Īs for Exquisite Clothing, these are great choices for enchants too since you can wear all of them (except boots and gloves) under your armor. You can put Restore Health 4pts/sec on a Ring/Amulet which will negate a lot of incoming damage. The only items in Morrowind (without mods) that reliably have high Enchant Values are Exquisite Clothing and Exquisite Jewelry.Įxquisite Amulets and Rings both have an Enchant Value of 120 which allows you to put quite powerful enchants onto them. Glass Pauldrons only have Enchant Values of 3 which is pretty much too small for any useful enchants. Most armor in Morrowind has absurdly low Enchant Values, a Glass Cuirass for example only has an Enchant Value of 12. In Morrowind you can't put whatever enchant you want on whatever item you want and certain items can only hold so much of an enchant. The most important thing that I have yet to address is the Enchant Value on gear/jewelry/weapons/clothing. Now that we've got all of that out of the way - let's take a deeper dive into Enchanting and explain some more things. I go into much more detail in that guide about where to find soul stones, the Summon Golden Saint spell and more. For more information about farming Golden Saints follow the link provided. With the spell above, so long as you cast it while looking directly at the ground it will conjure a Golden Saint that you can then cast Soultrap on and kill to bind its soul to a Grand Soul Gem. This works with any buff in the game but more importantly it works with pets that you can summon! How the soultrap glitch works is pretty simple, if you combine a spell with Soultrap and cast it directly at the ground it'll become a permanent Constant Effect. This spell takes advantage of the soultrap glitch and is easy to cast even without high Conjuration. Once you've acquired this spell you will want to create your own unique spell, shown below. You will need to purchase the Summon Golden Saint spell which is only sold by a single NPC in the game, Felen Maryon. If you are looking to create very powerful items with Enchanting you will likely want to farm Golden Saints as they are the easiest enemy to reliably farm.
Golden Saints and Ascended Sleepers, for example, can only have their souls held in a Grand Soul Gem or inside of Azura's Star. The value a soul has affects how much charge is restored when recharging an item as well as what sort of soul gem you can put the soul into. Golden Saints, Ascended Sleepers and a few other niche enemies have souls with a value of 400 that can be used to make Constant Effect items. If you'd like to make Constant Effect items, which are some of the best items in the game, you must use a soul with a value of 400 or more. What type of soul you use when enchanting an item matters depending on what enchantment you want to use. Soul Trap is a Mysticism spell which is sold by many different merchants in the game. In order to bind a soul to a soul gem you will need a soul gem powerful enough to hold your targets soul and to cast Soul Trap on them before killing them.
With the amount of Intelligence you see me with in the screenshot above (it's over 9000!) you'll never fail to enchant an item.Īside from needing a high Intelligence to successfully enchant an item you'll also need a powerful soul bound to a soul gem. Otherwise you'll have a very low chance of successfully enchanting every item that you try to in the game. In order to Enchant items yourself with a 100% success rate you'll need to use the Morrowind Alchemy Exploit to raise your Intelligence into the thousands. There are two methods of enchanting an item, you can visit an NPC who will apply the Enchant for you for a steep price or you can Enchant items yourself. Those of you who like to min/max your characters will most likely want to pick up Enchanting since the best set of armor will be one you make yourself.
