Now if you just press here you'll wait but it takes a long time to count down. To speed time up, press and press to move the bar to 24 hours. Vendors in Skyrim restock after 48 hours. Glow Dust, Glowing Mushroom, Hanging Moss = Resist Shock, Fortify Destruction, Damage Magicka, Fortify Health, Damage Magicka RegenДЄfter you buy the ingredients from Arcadia, it's time to restock her inventory.Bear Claws, Hanging Moss, Eye of Sabre Cat = Fortify Health, Damage Magicka Regen, Fortify One-Handed, Restore Stamina, Damage Magicka.Mora Tapinella, Scaly Pholiotam, Creep Cluster = Fortify Illusion, Regenerate Stamina, Restore Magicka, Fortify Carry Weight, Weakness to Magic.Giant's Toe, Wheat, Hawk's Beak (Creep Cluster if you don't have Hawk's Beak).There are some ingredients though you'll want to save to make 'super' potions worth lots of money and experience. The above ingredients can be used to make the following high cost potions:Д«ear claws, Blue Butterfly Wing, Blue Mountain Flower, Chickens Egg, Glow Dust, Hanging Moss, Nightshade, Spider Egg, Spriggan SapД¬reep cluster, Frost Mirriam, Histcarp, Juniper Berries, Large Antlers, Silverside Perch, Skeever Tail, WheatД¬haurus Eggs, Nirnroot, Ice Wraith Teeth, Luna Moth Wing, Vampire DustД«riar Heart, Canis Root, Imp Stool, Swamp Fungal PodДeathbell, Salt Pile, Large Antlers, River Betty **Daedric Hearts (see comment below about these and whether you need them).With that in mind, to start off, only buy the following ingredients: The higher the value of the potion, the more it levels you up when you make it. I should note that she doesn't sell all the ingredients below until you invest in her shop through the speech perk.ДЄlchemy is leveled up by creating potions, although eating ingredients does give you some XP. At first you're only going to want to buy certain ones to save money and maximize the amount of money spent. Once inside speak with Arcadia and begin buying ingredients. To begin this process you'll need to go to Arcadia's Cauldron (the town Alchemist) to start. Leveling this skill though is a lot harder than Oblivion. At my highest level I'm capable of making potions worth over 5000 in gold. Once inside the city go to Arcadia's Cauldron to begin step 2.ДЄlchemy is a very quick and easy way to earn money in Skyrim. After finishing with your lumberjacking around head to Whiterun and go inside the city. Stick with it and it'll be done in no time. This can get quite boring as you're looking at 100 chopping sequences to get the 3000 gold mentioned above. You'll need about 3000 or so gold to get started with all this so get to work. Hod, the owner of the place, will give you 5 gold per piece of firewood you chop. Head over toward the wood mill and begin chopping wood. Before you go there though, you'll need to pick up a little gold first.

From there advance the main quest until after you're given the quest to go to Whiterun. You're not going to be adventuring for a while so none of this stuff is worth keeping. Next go to Riverwood and sell off everything extra in your inventory. On your way to Riverwood be sure to stop by the standing stones and choose the Thief sign. We'll start this process as soon as you emerge from Helgen after the attack. When this is all said and done, your equipment will more than make up for the gap.

Last, don't worry about your level going up without you knowing any combat skills. The last thing you want to do is ruin this character by spending a perk on something you won't use later. Next, don't spend any perks unless I tell you to. Also, there will be some traveling involved and random dragon attacks will be fatal until you're done with all this. First of all, I suggest doing this with a new character so that you don't have any of the main quest done or any perks chosen. Keep this in mind before spending perks to increase armor percentage. Although you can get your armor rating to 3000+, it still only blocks the same amount of damage as the 567 rating (about 80% damage reduction). After all who doesn't want to be able to laugh at a Giant when he barely scratches you with one of his earthquake club strikes? It should be noted here that the armor rating caps out at 567. The payoff though is worth it in my opinion as you'll be able to create awesomely powerful equipment and fully maximize your fun. You will be spending a lot of time grinding between stores for ingredients and components and it does get a bit tedious regardless of how great the game is. Before you begin this journey understand that this is not a quick and easy process (yes I understand that there's a glitch with the Oghma Infinium but that takes all the fun out in my opinion).
