not a cheat, just originally you spammed leather bracers and iron daggers but that was patched, now you have to spam leather cuirasses and iron chestplates...it is very costly. Do Bounty Missions and collect all the gear from the bandits, sell them and buy iron ingots and leather strips.

I don't know. I just made 4 pieces of smithing apparel that gave me 25% boost each in smithing. Then I made the most expensive dwarven and glass pieces. I also improved all the armor and weapons that I made and many of the ones I found in dungeons. I also made jewelry using the gold from the shrine of mehrunes, which respawns a lot of gold ingots plus some ebony and moonstone ingots every 10 days. I scavenged a ton of dwarven scrap metal from a couple of dwemer dungeons, which I smelted into lots of dwarven metal ingots. The more expensive the items you make, the more smithing experience you get. I think you get an experience bonus for being well rested. Also you should turn on the warrior stone so that you get more experience points for smithing. Making glass battleaxes worked out well for me. They're worth a lot of money (and therefore experience) and you make some profit over the cost of raw materials.

There is a Gold mine inhabited by the Forsworn down the road from Markarth, you get like 40 ore from there. Go and make a ton of gold rings and you will jump in smithing quite a bit

Rasing your speech takes a while I know because I am level 30 and have been using speech challenges left and right and once your speech gets to 50 it gets extremely hard to raise it also you know that most traders only have 750 gold and in order to reset it you have to wait 3 full days.Unless there is something that I am forgetting such as a skill perk or tree then I am pretty sure that's right on the money!!!

In the speech tree, there is one that lets you invest a permanent 500g into their funds and the last perk makes every merchant have like 1000 more g i think, but i never got the last one

Yea I think I am still working on the 500g one.I wish they had a perk that makes merchants have unlimited gold like back in the old days of video games but bethesda takes cheaters very serious now days from the looks of one of your previous post.O well I guess that just means I will have to play more that's all.lol

Nah you don't have to wait 3 days. Just save the game. Then kill the shopkeeper (which is funny as hell) and then reload your saved game. He will have his full money back and his inventory will be refreshed. This is also a good way to get scarce items such as potion ingredients and soul gems.

I was in that potion shop in Solitude with the old lady and the young lady. I repeatedly killed them both. It was so funny I LMAO, because my character was doing all these hilarious execution moves on these chicks, like repeatedly slamming his knee into their face.

Get tansmute Iron to silver and silver to gold, make tons of gold rings from iron ingots, enchant them, sell them for good profit. If you have a lot of time on your hands, and patience, make Iron daggers, enchant with banish, get along the lines of 500g for each. Took hours but I got enchanting and smithing to 100 and made a neat profit too.

Personally I would rather take hours, feels a little too easy when you can do it in no time.

EDIT: Oh and if you do take the enchant route, only buy lesser or petty filled soul gems, or you dont make profit, at least not much.

And you can get a spell that transforms iron ore into silver ore, and silver ore into gold ore. It makes the whole world your gold mine :lmao:

No Stone Unturned.
Spoiler
With this quest, you will be required to do the first quest in the College questline, gain access to the DB Sanctuary near Falkreath (both require joining), buying Proudspire Manor in Solitude and, of course, joining the Thieves Guild. Once you have collected all 24 stones, you'll be sent after the crown. After getting the crown, you'll be awarded with the perk Prowler's Profit; which makes more gems appear in containers. Sell the gems. This quest has no quest markers for the stones, at least none that I saw, but the locations can be found on the wiki.


EDIT: For those that didn't, and wanted to, know

Spam iron daggers till you can make Dwarwen(or elven) armor, spamming iron daggers is pretty effective early on and it's very easy to get the material for it. From then on you can just buy the material you need from blacksmiths across skyrim and sell it for a profit. Only make the (chest-legs) armor as that's what increases your level the fastest. After you get a new perk function primarily on that armor.

Alchemy is a good way to make money. The ingredients are everywhere; you just have to collect them and then go and make potions. After that, you should have plenty of money for ingots and training.

  • Get an item that has fortify alchemy on it. Stock up on salt piles, cyrodilic spadetail and abecan longfin. Also get the ingredients to make one fortify enchant potion.
  • Equip fortify alchemy item, and brew one potion of fortify restoration. drink it, unequip and re-equip the fortify alchemy item. Brew another fortify restoration potion, and unequip re-equip the alchemy item. Repeat the cycle until you can make a fortify restoration potion that has a magnitude in the tens of thousands. Drink the final potion, and your alchemy gear should be in the thousands now. Make some fortify enchant potions.
  • Drink the fortify enchant potion, and enchant an item with fortify smithing. It should be in the thousands. Equip said item and make a set of leather armor and upgrade it. This should push your smithing to 100. If not, make another set and repeat the process.
  • As a side benefit your alchemy will also be at 100, and if you sell any of those items, If you sell any of these items or potions, your speechcraft will max out.
  • You will also gain a truckload of levels in non combat skills, so be careful.
