Can you find Dragonbone weapons?

Post » Sun Nov 18, 2012 11:08 am

Can you find them around the world like in treasure chests or something, like with other loot? Does it apply to the world outside of Dawnguard too?

P.S. I didn't start the Dawnguard quests yet, i just want to know if i should expect to find any Dragonbone weapons outside of these quests.

I have never found one in loot chests. At a sufficiently high level the keepers will drop dragonbone weapons: a mace, a battle axe, and a bow. That is it as far as I know.

I've got 3 characters, but only 2 at high enough levels to find anything like that. Out of hundreds of hours played, one character found ( besides the aforementioned above) exactly 1 dragon item, and it wasn't a weapon, but a dragonscale helmet. Sorry, I don't remember where I found it.

I was asking about weapons, not armor :/ I know armor can be found....

But checking other forums, multiple people said they found some at higher levels, so there's hope.

Had a look in the CK, apart from the keeper drops (Battleaxe, Bow & Mace) it looks like the Dagger, Sword, Greatsword, WarAxe & Warhammer can only be obtained through crafting, it doesn't look like merchants get them either.

Oh really? I wonder why people said then that they found loot like that :/

Would it be possible to make a mod that adds these weapons to the leveled lists?

Not only possible, but easy. Putting them on the same lists as Daedric weapons will do the trick, just check "use info" on Daedric weapons and include the Dragonbone weapons to the same lists. Even a CK noob like me could do that :hehe:

Well i don't have the CK ready sadly... and last time i wanted to run it, it just crashed immediately :/

I wish someone would do this... that would be awesome...

That it's not fun?

Finding stuff as loot is fun, smithing is not, for me.

Adding them to the vanilla leveled lists would have made more sense.

Yeah, that would be nice.

I'm sure if a modder would do this, that would make many people happy, myself included :)

based on poorly-written wiki information the daedric leveled loot is 1/20 less common than the average apparel.

if this is true (i highly doubt it unless we can get creation kit confirmed information) then dragon bone/scale apparel and armors must be like 1/40

at level 55 i once found a dragonscale chestplate in a dwemer master chest,and never found any dragon-stuff again

The OP got his answer ~_~. And I've found after 200 hours of playing a full set of Daedric armor. Not at one time..but piece by piece. Never found any dragonscale. No dragon bone helmets, and no dragonbone anything other than the weapon a boss drops, which was obsolete right off the bat by my crossbow. Just for good measure, Dawnguard adds a good bit, but doesn't add much in the armor/weapons department. Sorry to say that but it's true.

This is one thing I don't like about Skyrim. The strongest weapons in the game are only available through doing loads of smithing, easily one of the most tedious skills in the entire TES series to date.

My main is level 45 but still can't find any daedric swords or better armour than glass.

^I found a daedric great sword, hammer, sword in my travels. Just keep looting those dead bodies and chests.

The last Revered Dragon I killed, dropped the greathammer, whatever that thing is called.

Oh groovy, I just noticed it dropped the boots too.

I think everyone knows that Daedric is a possible loot... he just said that he didn't get one yet.

Oh hey, I'm sorry that your glorious overrated favorite game makers of the world are too busy [censored] over a console to care enough to add in something as simple as dragonbone.

No i've checked with TES5Edit, Dragonbone weapons are not in any leveled lists. You can only obtain them with smithing or from the Keepers.

Mods will fix that.
