This is the list of weapons and smithing upgrades I would like to see in the next DLC.
Dawnguard gave us a few Dawnguard weapons, arrows and finally dragon bone weapons. I think it would be cool to utilize all the materials in Skyrim. Gold, silver, ivory(mammoth tusks), atherium, stone(since it can be mined with Hearthfire), and I'm sure I'm forgetting a few others.
Let me mix materials like steel and ebony just to give my gear a little customization.
This is my first post on here so please be gentle!

id rather see more tweaks to the magic system...

Didn't really think about magic. I was thinking more about how I'm supposed to be this great hero of Skyrim and I look around and the sword and armor I have is the same as some random bandit. It would be nice to have some equipment that truly feels like its my own through some type of customization.

There are several sets of unique armor in the game (where only some of a faction would wear it and you only deal with them for the faction).

However, it would be nice to be able to use the new or other materials in making weapons. Bethesda offered a DLC with New Vegas that introduced new weapons, so perhaps we will get this later on.

Thanks for spoiling that Aetherium can be mined. The dlc has been out for 2 days.

Well they couldn't really combine a new DLC with the others, as that would make it unfair for people who didn't buy DG/HF.

But it would be nice to see more materials used in weapons, or ways to customize your own weapons. Example - inlaying weapons/armor with gold,silver, diamond, etc. for a more custom look (Like a Steel sword with Gold inlay - no real combat improvement, but added visual style).


But since Heathfire already increases my Smithing more than I want it to, I would like the next small DLC to focus on something like magic. Add some new/old spells, spell making, staff making (apart from the one at the College), new enchantments, and balancing spells out more. I would like to use my Flames spell at higher levels still, but it gets useless after a while.

Now now, first let's welcoming OP to the forums!

I would like to see new weapons and armour with new materials.
But it seems Hearthfire adds many contents to smithing (I'm PC user), so let's another DLC focusing to magic stuff or something.
