Skyrim Tips - Spells Cost Zero Magicka To Cast and Infinite Enchantment Charge

[lalle5000]

where did you find the elven helmet? i am in lv. 100 in enchanting, have all perks, and i have 4 grand soul gems with 4 grand souls. but, i dont have the enchantment "fortify destruction".. and i cant find an item with that enchantment active.. plz help, if you or someone have time to answer :)

[Scrapper16PS3]

@deathjoker666 you put the enchantment fortify magica regen on necklace boots or gauntlets so you no you cant have all of your spells as 0% cost.

[DanDaMaN95cov]

mines at 23% and but im not level 100 in enchanting im level 83

[Helltech]

@DanDaMaN95cov Gotta be at 100.

[yomama4325]

My mana is 15 million

[FatPenguinProductioz]

Nice out-tro.

[EpicNeWb22103]

nice cheating

[ZXxxXawsome]

Why does mine shows 15% less to cast I'm confused

[Lapointful]

Omg helltech no homo but I love you for this man thanks for explaining it for me!

[deathjoker666]

i'm thinking of a mage that can do destruction but not sure if i should go with illlussion or alteration as his 2nd one though.

[Helltech]

@deathjoker666 Well after playing for a long time as a mage I really wanted to use them all. I'd say Conjuration and Illusion were the least used. While I used Conjuration a lot I didn't have a need to conserve magicka because you didn't have to cast it a lot. Destruction and Restoration are needed. Alteration is needed if you want to use Mage Armor instead of Heavy/Light Armor. I like Mage Armor just because I wanted to play a mage. But if you don't want Mage Armor, Alteration isn't that great.

[deathjoker666]

@Helltech is it possible to have magicka regenerate at 100% as a whole instead of just for destruction? i mean i don't really want to be just a destruction type of mage where as i can use all spells.

[deathjoker666]

by the way i'm new to the mage thing i'm usually playing my nord character who's a strong melee character.

[JMan3073]

@Helltech PLUS INVISIBLENESS IS AWSOME AND ILLUSION LETS YOU BECOME INVISIBLE!!!!

[Lapointful]

How do u get an item to be 25% destruction

[Helltech]

@Lapointful Find an item that hast he destruction enchantment, it can be 1 percent, 2 percent, 20 percent, doesn't matter. Disenchant it. You now have the base enchantment. Then get your enchanting to 100. Get 1 point in Corpus Enchanter, and 5 points into Enchanter in the enchanting tree. Then using a grand soul enchant a helm, neck, ring, or chest piece with destruction enchant.

[Lapointful]

How do you get an item to be 25% to destruction

[MirrorsEdge007]

Why do people say mana instead of magika? Too much Terrarea?

[Helltech]

@MirrorsEdge007 Uhm I have no idea what Terrarea is, but I get it from Diablo, certain FF games, Fable, and a handful of old PS1 games.

[KimoIsKing]

@Helltech Its called will in fable not mana

[Helltech]

@KimoIsKing Did you play Fable 1? If so you should remember the Mana Augmentation. Mana lets you recharge your Will faster.

[briangrahm73]

@MirrorsEdge007 Mana has been around in fictional writing since way before video games and was used as a universal term for the natural resource that wizards use to channel magic.

[TheGra3t]

One of the best ways to get up enchanting and smithing at the same time make iron daggers an enchant them after i had all tgw jems took me 30 mins to get from 42 to 100

[xThePowerxx]

where can i find destruction stuff to disenchant??? i want regen and to make it cost less please

[Vuurx]

Whats a good enchant for boots, hands?

[Helltech]

@Vuurx Depends on your play style.

[lusiousvladislousv3]

thanks bro

[Helltech]

@lusiousvladislousv3 No problem.

[zachrunyon1]

I also only get 23% maximum. Does an enchantment potion help?

[Helltech]

@zachrunyon1 Yes, the reason you are at 23 is because you do not have 100 Enchanting.

[dpAmdionqb]

i only get 23% with a grand soul gem and my enchantment tree has 5/5 for enchanter, 1/1 insightful enchanter and 1/1 for corpus enchanter.

[Helltech]

@dpAmdionqb 100 Enchanting?

[dpAmdionqb]

@Helltech no 94 notice it increase to 24% percent when i continued to level it up to 100.

[Helltech]

@dpAmdionqb If you're at 100 it should most definitely be at 25 percent. Not sure the cause but just drink an Enchanting potion to push it up a little more.

[zachrunyon1]

Does this still work as of the new patch? Because I am level 80 and it says destruction is at 20%, and I only have 4/5 of the first perk, and 20% of 20 is only four. So if I got the next perk, it says that enchantments do 20% more. Will taking a potion help?

[Helltech]

@zachrunyon1 Gotta be at 100 Enchanting

[Ahalem1]

i have all the perks u have im level 80 but it only says 15% less to cast rather then 20...do i have to be level 100 or something for that other percent and if so how do u suggest i get to level 100 quickly because there are so many methods..please reply cuz its really pissing me off. thanks

[Helltech]

@Ahalem1 Well I got to 100 a couple days after the game came out so I doubt my method is the best, and to be honest I haven't even looked up other ways to do it. I just went to the College of Winterhold. Waited till 1am when everyone was sleeping. Went to the wing with the vendors. Bought all the lesser and petty gems they had, waited 2 days. Did that till I had about 100 gems (you wont need that much since you're at 80). Then just ran around for 20 minutes soul trapping foxes and stuff.

[theproatnazizombies]

Yeah I kinda did a disenchant on a 50% less I have 100% recharge. It doesn't let me disenchant it anyway to fix this or am I fucked

[MrAshelyG]

any info where i can find the 25% less to cast enchantment, i can't find an item with it -.-

[TheUndeadchimp]

Do you need 100%? because im at 83% and it only goes up to 23% magicka reduction with a black soul gem

[Helltech]

@TheUndeadchimp 100 Enchanting? 5 Points in Enchanter? 1 Point in Corpus Enchanter?

[MobNommer]

Good info, also if you put in the infinite wearable rings mod in the steam workshop you can cast all schools of magic for free using this'd strategy

[xKyoful]

Any info on why I cant dual enchant my Daedric Armor?

[Jaybawks]

@xKyoful If you dont have the perk in enchanting skill web unlocked, that would be why.

[Helltech]

@xKyoful You can, just not Legs or Wrists (well they are enchantable just not with this enchantment).

[Leto85]

Nice vid Helltech. You are worth to be given a little tip. :P

When you are a vampire level 1 till 3 and you have the Necromage perk (which will grand spells and armor enchantments by 25% to the undead, which are you now) you can bump up your destruction percent to 33%. That means you can save up one enchantment as the total of 99% will be rounded up so it seems, because after testing: my Vamp could cast spells for no magicka cost at all.

[Helltech]

@Leto85 Hey that's pretty neat. Haven't played as a vampire yet in Skyrim. Thanks for the information :)

[lild0ughboy]

I have all of the perks that you described, but it only let's me enchant 23% less destruction... Anyone know why?

[Helltech]

@lild0ughboy Not using a Grand Soul (not necessarily a grand soul gem). Not at 100 Enchanting?

[RSOracaVids]

@YeshuCan the plural of staff is staves

[Cardiff098]

lol y u want fast regen theres nothing to regen

[Helltech]

@Cardiff098 Illusion, Restoration, Alteration.....

[jlc2100]

@Helltech why am I getting 18% on my dragon plate helment i have everything u described in the video and have done it with my daedric armor and it word but won't work with the dragon helment.

[jlc2100]

@Helltech nevermind i found out you nedd grand soul gems to get 25% destruction.

[IGOTAROCKSON]

It won't let my enchant my gauntlets or boots with fortify destruction, does anyone know why?

[Helltech]

@IGOTAROCKSON Because as I said in my video and in the description that enchantment works for Helm, Chest, Neck, and Ring only.

[a1rzf0rc3]

couldnt u just have 25% and 15% less cost magicka on 2 pieces of armour the other 2 pieces magick regnerates 60% faster and like another 60%faster magicka regenerate AGAIN one 1 piece of jewllery and like 50 more magika for a ring?

[a1rzf0rc3]

@a1rzf0rc3 and with jewlerry and the 2nd one for the other things magicka regenerates faster xD

[totalishnc]

if you enchanted 4 items all with more than 25% destruction cost reduction would you gain mana from using destruction spells?

[YeshuCan]

i think you mean staffs not staves :p

[5193shawn]

your not using up your magika, so why bother with regenerating it? should have used a +armor or something...

[Helltech]

@5193shawn Why do you assume Destruction is the only school of magic I use? I use all the schools of magic on my normal character, I'm pure mage.

[Crosby4hyg]

Does anyone know if there's an item in the game that allows you to enchant things stronger? for example like a set of armor that reads "enchanting is 12% more powerful" or something like that.

[Helltech]

@Crosby4hyg Enchanting Potions are all there are.

[MrJBLZ117]

I MESSED UP i enchanted all my stuff but its only at 20% each is there a way to fix this or do i have to make more daedric armor?

[Helltech]

@MrJBLZ117 Reload a save? Otherwise yeah, you will have to make more.

[MrJBLZ117]

@Helltech sad day D: but oh well i didn't understand my problem till i watched this vid so THX! i made some new deadric armor and now can cast spells for 0 magicka

[Helltech]

@MrJBLZ117 Glad I could help!

[tosh541]

what does it mean to fill a soul gem? how di you fill one?

[Helltech]

@tosh541 Use the spell Soul Trap on a creature before it dies. Have an empty Soul Gem in your inventory to capture its soul. If you want Grand Souls I recommend killing Mammoths.

[iluvpichu]

Where is an enchantment like this for conjuration? THANKS

[Helltech]

@iluvpichu As with all loot in this game, its just random. You can look at the spellcasting vendors though, mainly the one in college of winterhold and see if they have anything.

[toymaster38]

Any wizard you can find,esp those in winterhold college.

[afterbangz1]

Where can you buy grand soul gems

[Helltech]

@afterbangz1 Just go to the college of winterhold talk to the 5 or 6 vendors there. I wait till like 1 am so that they are all sleeping then they are all near each other. Wake them up, buy their soul gems. Wait two days, rinse and repeat for as many as you need.

[wiidude250]

somone please hellllp i have all nesecary things in this vid but it says destruction cost 15 less -.- its so frustrating does anyone know what i did wrong

[Helltech]

@wiidude250 Are you using a Grand Soul (not necessarily a Grand Soul Gem), 5 points into Enchanter, 1 Point into Corpus Enchanter, at 100 Enchanting?

[TheMinuteRaid]

whats so good about enchanted robes, theyre the same with armor right? just doesnt have any armor rating :/

[Helltech]

@TheMinuteRaid Nothing, they are the same. I use them because I use Mage Armor (Alteration Perk), which gives a ton of Armor Rating. So yeah, thats the only time its good to use them is if you use Mage Armor.

[TheMinuteRaid]

@Helltech does the perk only work with mage armor on?

[Helltech]

@TheMinuteRaid It only works while you are completely wearing cloth. 

[StinkingPenguin]

Awesome!!! :D

[MrMasterNorris]

i can only get 88% reduction i have on cloths, a hat, a ring, and a neclace, what am i missing

[Helltech]

@MrMasterNorris Sounds like you're not at 100 Enchanting to me. but it could be because you aren't using a Grand Soul, you don't have 5 point in Enchanter, or you don't have Corpus Enchanter.

[DrAlexander1174]

@helltech is it possible to make more than one school cost zero magika

[Helltech]

@DrAlexander1174 Yes, look at the description. You can easily do 2. Using Alchemy (and if you have alot of resources and time on your hands) you can do 3-4 schools

[AngryGaper]

@Helltech how do you get 3-4?

[Helltech]

@AngryGaper Lots of time spent on Alchemy. You use Alchemy to make (and use) and enchanter potion. Then using that you make gear that makes your Alchemy stronger. Then you wear that new gear to make a BETTER enchanting potion to make your enchanting stronger, and use that to make an even better alchemy set.. rinse and repeat till you can make alchemy potions that boost your enchanting up massively.

[fan977]

@DrAlexander1174 Yes you can get more than one school to cost 0 magika, I managed to get both destruction and restoration to cost 0, but you should get the 2 enchantment perk.

[nacoran]

Learn the perk put two enchantments on something and you could max out two schools. Were you wearing items to boost your alchemy when you made the potion to boost your enchanting? Or all the alchemy perks, or falmer helmet trick? I haven't sat down and done the math, but it seems like you should be able to get pretty close to free magic across the board if you are willing to change amulets and rings for different spells. Name them something similar in enchanting so they clump in the list.

[XSafire]

I have my enchanting at 100, and grand soul gems filled with grand souls, but I can only get to 8% per item. Has it been fixed for the 360?

[Helltech]

@XSafire No it still works. 8 is the base, it wont say 25 percent till you ready the new enchanted item for finalization. Watch my video close you will see it says 8 percent till right before I enchant it.

[Silverormen]

Fail. It do cost mana but not much. Learn math :)

[briangrahm73]

@Silverormen lol are you an idiot?

[Helltech]

@Silverormen No it costs none what so ever. 100 percent reduction. 25+25+25+25. I played through the entire game on master and never once lost magicka spamming the highest magicka costing spell there is.

[BenjaminLPeterson]

@Helltech you are ABSOLUTELY correct and do not listen to the little boys that can not figure it out!!

[briangrahm73]

@Silverormen Also "it do cost mana"? Learn English before you criticize others.

[BenjaminLPeterson]

@briangrahm73 I posted the same thing!!!! He is OBVIOUSLY a six year old posting negative comments because his mother won't buy this game for him

[BenjaminLPeterson]

@Silverormen He OBVIOUSLY knows math... Learn some ENGLISH and SPELLING before opening your PIE HOLE!!!!

[Helltech]

@BenjaminLPeterson I laughed. XD

[ZelqytZaphoryn]

this set of enchants+lightning storm+augmented shock+disentigrate=what would happen if goku drank skooma

[MaxwellTheDemon]

can you do 50 % and have the perk unlocked that halves it?

[Helltech]

@MaxwellTheDemon No it doesn't work that way unfortunately. I know it’s odd. Basically that tree of perks useless though.

[AnonymousTamponThief]

....WTF is this mana?????

[Knito854]

@AnonymousTamponThief Mana is a term for how much energy you have left to cast spells its like stamina but for spells idk if you are being sarcastic but here is ur answer

[BurlyTheNord]

@Knito854 aka the word mmofags use INSTEAD of magicka.

[TheCheckitout22]

@BurlyTheNord I didn't realize Diablo 1 was an MMO's! Thanks for the headsup!

[briangrahm73]

@TheCheckitout22 Lol I know right? Kids these days. Can't appreciate where things come from. Even Dungeons and Dragons uses mana. But I guess thats an MMO too. :P Oh and those fantasy books from the 70s and 80s, those are mmos. HAHA.

[briangrahm73]

@BurlyTheNord Any true fantasy fan would at least know where the word came from. It was use in Niven's writings long before any videos games used it, and thats were the games got it from. I know of many sources that use the word mana. Actually you hear mana and mana points in many games. Even some Final Fantasy games use mana points, (most use magic points and mist points though). I use the term and have never played an MMO, so you have no idea what you are talking about at all.

[TheGodzStarz]

@AnonymousTamponThief Magicka

[Asesinoh]

I can't find any item with only Fortify Alteration (not the one with magicka regen) Toldfir doesn't sell them :(

[Helltech]

@Asesinoh Hmm maybe another mage at the college sells them? Might be worth checkin them all out.

[BadAssPlayer69]

Where do I get the Fortify Alteration?

[taylorman1227]

@BadAssPlayer69 go to college of winterhold speak to Tolfdir buy whatever robes hes got to do with fortify alteration, theyll probz be expensive though

[Helltech]

@taylorman1227 Hey great tip, I didn't know he sold them.

[Helltech]

@KillasStayFly Yeah man, that's just bad luck. You HAVE to have the enchantment that is just the school alone. I know it sucks, but you'll find it. The "Hooded Thalmor Robes", and "Thalmor Robes" both have fortify destruction on them and are disenchantable. So look for those. If you go to the Thalmor base you can find some.

[addeyyry]

How can he have 115 in enchanting he has that at theend of the video

[Helltech]

@addeyyry That was from the alchemy potion I drank. That's how the alchemy potion works, it just ups your enchanting skill. You know whats funny though, I actually didn't know that's how it worked till I made this video, haha. But yeah when it says "Fortify Enchanting 15%" or what ever, what it actually does is increase your skill level, and that's how it works! Neat, right?

[addeyyry]

Hor

[addeyyry]

Look at the end of the video

[CrumpetsNteaHA]

I need 5 more perks to unlock the perks n im level 90 enchanting and level 48 wood elf fml

[xcountryben]

For some reason all my "Fortify (Magicka Skill)" enchantments seem to be stuck at 8%. I have 100 enchanting skill, 5/5 of the first perk, the double effect perk, and the Insightful and Corpus Enchanter perks. I'm almost positive I'm using grand souls, so does anybody know what the problem might be?

[Helltech]

@xcountryben 8 percent is the base, it will go up when you look at the final product right before you enchant it. If you watch my video you can see this. Pause the video at 1:14 and you can see its 8 percent.

[MrMarkodevil]

@Helltech i have look for 2 week for something with iminent destruction and im level 76 know any places they might be?

[Helltech]

@MrMarkodevil Not really, like I've said its all random. The only advice I can give is, you're not looking for imminent ONLY are you? It doesn't matter what kind of destruction enchantment you find. You just need the base. As long as if its fortify destruction you're good to go. Even if it was 1 percent less (not that that's out there).

[Helltech]

@MrMarkodevil Ok I found out that Hooded Thalmor Robes and Thalmor Robes are the easiest way to get the destruction enchantment. So that should help A LOT.

[MrMasterNorris]

where do i get the fortify destruction

[KillasStayFly]

@MrMasterNorris disenchant robes

[Helltech]

@MrMasterNorris Hooded Thalmor Robes and Thalmor Robes are the easiest way to get this enchantment.

[TheGodzStarz]

can you unlearn an enchantment?

[Helltech]

@TheGodzStarz There might be a way and I could look into it for you, but why would you want to?

[zeezoutje]

@Helltech does is also work on xbox 360?

[Helltech]

@zeezoutje Yes it work on Xbox and PS3, it isn't a cheat or a glitch its part of the game.

[TheGodzStarz]

@Helltech Nvm I don't need to but thx anyway

[mdude009]

So I do this and my nightingale blade will never lose it's charge... Hot damn, it's a good thing I saw this before I started enchanting my good stuff.

[farbiothedragonborn]

You sir are great thank you very much =) and by the way what spell was that?

[Helltech]

@farbiothedragonborn Lightning Storm, after getting 100 destruction you talk to Faralda and she will give a quest. After finishing that quest you can buy it from her.

[xzymarkusyzx1]

Dual enchant 2 with the 15 % wow...

[Helltech]

@xzymarkusyzx1 You can't disenchant the archmages robes, thus you can never get that enchantment to use for enchanting. The only way to use that enchantment would be the wear those robes, and I already explained why that isn't a good idea.

[smartypants0425]

the arch-mage robes make ALL spells cost less

[Helltech]

@smartypants0425 Yeah but unfortuanatly it doesn't get the cost down enough only 15 percent. So if you wear 3 other peices at 25 percent, and then that at 15, it won't be 100 percent. :(

[CJGam3s]

I didn't read all of that stuff in the description, but does your enchantment skill have to be really high to disenchant a Novice Robes of Destruction?

[11cmgrah]

@CJGam3s You can disenchant anything at any level, but you won't get a high percentage on new enchanted items unless your skill is high.

[BlueAxeBoy]

ahhh crap. This game is so broken! Now why would I even want to use my sword again, knowing that I can do this? :(

[TheFlamingChips]

Question for anyone: if I enchant a piece of armour, then sometime later get 100 enchant so I can get 2 enchants on a piece, would I be able to enchant that armour for the second time?

[Helltech]

@TheFlamingChips I'm like 97 percent sure you can't enchanting something already enchanted. You gotta do it all at once.

[98mmcc]

@TheFlamingChips you cant i just found out :(

[TheFlamingChips]

Question for anyone, if I enchant a piece of armour, then get 100 enchant so I can enh

[THExDinomite]

KA ME HA ME HAAA

[Helltech]

@THExDinomite I know right? Thats why I use it :P

[Rhidstheimpaler]

I used a glitch with the restoration thing and now all of my spells are free. Since I spent ages levelling up my magika it kind of takes the piss!

[Cardiff098]

i have one perk left do u reckon i shuld get 2 enchantments or the thing that means my bow shots take 30 %less time please please reply

[mahe4]

@Cardiff098 30% less time is very good... but 2 enchantments can bring you very far...

i have a char with 47% extra archery damage enchantments on 4 pieces... 188% extra archery damage... and on every piece another enchantment...

it depends on you other skills what you should take

[Cardiff098]

@mahe4 how/where did u get 47% archery enchantment or i suppose 23 % cus u probs have the perks anyway where did you get it

[mahe4]

@Cardiff098 i enchanted stuff witch fortify alchemy

the i created fortify enchantment potions

the whole process 2 times

and i got fortify enchantment potions so i could enchant for 47% archery a piece

[TheErictodd]

@Helltech your gay, ok now that i have your attention, nice vid and you can make those potions to make enchanting more powerful and then enchant gear with alchemy bonuses and make more powerful enchantion potions and do this forever by repeating steps and then make gear with like millions of damage points. :) I haven't as i think that its unfair to the game but im gonna get 100 enchanting tomorrow so i can have 0% cost on spells :)

[Helltech]

@TheErictodd Yeah, I'm aware, tried to myself and doesn't seem worth the time it takes to do. There was a couple peple who already had a conversation about it in my comments way back when I posted this video two months ago. But hey if you got the time and patience its all worth it.

[jkwerner010]

I tried this with absorb spells on a sword, and it doesn't seem to work, even though those are listed as destruction spells. Maybe the wiki is wrong.

[tontogawowski]

@jkwerner010 I think you may have put destruction cost down, but absorbs i dont think it destruction. hope that makes sense...

[airsoftsoldier2]

What spell was that u used???

[Helltech]

@airsoftsoldier2 Lightning Storm

[Randybalma]

I only get 23 % ??? Every perk unlocked??

[Helltech]

@Randybalma Make sure you're using a Grand Soul, not just a Grand Soul Gem. Usually when its 23 percent its because you're not at 100 Enchanting, but you said every perk unlocked so that isn't it.

[malascar]

You can use arch mage robes too right...?

[Helltech]

@malascar Not sure what you are askng, the Archmage's Robes are a unique item. You can't disenchant them. They only have 15 percent less to cast so they don't really help you too much when you need 25 percent less to cast on each peice.

[Stormhawk7777]

anyone else notice that his enchanting is level 115?

[Helltech]

@Stormhawk7777 Thats becuase of the potion I used. You will notice at the beginning of the video its 100, and 115 after the potion was used. Thats how the enchanting potion works. 

[DirtyVannilaKids]

black souls are grand souls, right? I am about to get try to get the black star
