Quick WalkthroughEdit
- Use the Arcane Enchanter in Dragonsreach, with Farengar Secret-Fire's guidance.
Detailed WalkthroughEdit
A Student of the CraftEdit
On top of his duties as court wizard, Farengar Secret-Fire of Whiterun also provides tips on the basics of enchanting to prospective mages. Find him at his research station in Dragonsreach and ask him how to enchant weapons and armor. Upon doing so, he will introduce you the basics of enchanting in Skyrim:
"Ah, a student of the craft. You'll need to start by learning an enchantment. Take an enchanted weapon or piece of armor, then use the Arcane Enchanter to learn its secrets. The item is destroyed in the process, so be wary. Once you know an enchantment, you'll need a filled soul gem, and something to enchant. You'll use the Arcane Enchanter for that, too. Of course I have everything you need for sale, if you have the coin."'
Master in the MakingEdit
Using this advice, you may walk over to his arcane enchanter and begin enchanting. The quest will complete upon activating the enchanter. It is not necessary to enchant or even disenchant an item to complete this quest.
NotesEdit
- This quest will end with no failure message if you stray too far from Dragonsreach, either by fast travel or by simply walking down the steps outside. The quest remains active throughout nearly all of Dragonsreach including both the Great Porch and the castle grounds, but can disappear if you get too close to the secret escape to the Guard Barracks in the dungeons.[verification needed]

- The following empty quest stages were omitted from the table: 20, 100.
- Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g.,
<Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the Radiant Quest system, and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game. - Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
- Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
- If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
- On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering
setstage TutorialEnchanting stage, wherestageis the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages, but it is possible to clear all stages of the quest usingresetquest TutorialEnchanting.
