I made a dragonbone sword, and despite the fact that it has a higher base damage than the daedric sword, I can't get the damage any higher through improving it at a grindstone. With extra one handed damage from a pair of gauntlets and the improvements to both, the dragonbone sword does 113 damage, and the daedric sword does 132.

Er... help?

/Not good.

I'm not familiar with the term "power gamer", but yes, I just realised I posted this in the wrong section, and you're right, that's not good. I'll post it in a more appropriate section.

If you even touch upon the holy triforce of alchemy/smithing/enchanting, you are a dirty PGer!

You can touch them in the Role-Playing way.

probably forgot your smithing suit for the dragonbone sword, or you had a potion to help with the deadric sword
