DrainAbsorb Stamina Weapon? : V

» Fri Jun 01, 2012 5:01 pm

So far I've yet to find a weapon to disenchant to learn to add drain/absorb stamina to a weapon - are there any npcs/places where I can be sure to find one?

Thanks in advance!

You will find them during the College of Winterhold questline. They're in a certain dungeon.

If you have access to a sigil stone (conjurer's ritual quest), then you can create random enchanted weapons in the atronach forge under the college.
Just make a save before you do it, so that you can retry until you get a weapon with the enchantment you want to disenchant.

i don't use swords much, i'm a mage, but i do carry the absorb stamina sword from the college quest..they only weigh 3 lbs, and they look cool, kinda see thru blue.

Seen them for sale here and there, but not often.

My lvl 42 who I just retired, saw them for sale a few times, but never found one as loot. I had a rule in place for her: She could only learn enchantments from random loot, so in fact, she never actually learned that one. Tough luck.

Found an absorb stamina dagger at Morvath's Lair, just NW of Morthal I think.

Disenchantment is still pending.

Maybe I'll make myself another daedric warhammer and use absorb stamina to maintain my power attack ability a little longer.

...you can maintain power attacks basically forever with Absorb, since if you have at least 1 point of stamina, you can do a power attack.

And if you're actively absorbing, then you probably meet that requirement.

Labyrinthian has all three absorb type weapons available. Don't believe you can get in w/o doing the College questline.

if you do the cursed orc tribe quest you get Volendrung...absorb 50 points of stamina.

Yeah, but you cannot disenchant daedric artifacts. I imagine the OP wants to enchant his own gear.
