To create various types of weapons and armor in Skyrim, you need to look for the ingredients you need for recipes. For simple things, you will need to get fairly common and well-known materials that can be found around every corner. But in order to get something worthwhile, rare or powerful, you have to try, as some materials can be difficult to get. For example, you can take an ebonite ingot - this material is known to absolutely all players who are fond of the TES series. Here ebonite is a popular material for creating very powerful and durable armor, as well as strong and reliable weapons. Naturally, in “Skyrim” you will also have to make every effort to get such ingots if you want to create high-quality items or seriously improve existing ones. But it’s important to know where to look for the material.
Buying hard rubber
One of the most unpopular ways to get hard rubber is to buy this material from traders in hardware stores. Also, if you decide to use such methods, you should look at the blacksmith, as he always has a certain amount of hard rubber for sale. But why is this method unpopular? Firstly, it is very boring - in such a game it is always much more interesting to mine every ebony ingot with your own hands. Moreover, this allows you not only to have fun and have fun, but also to earn experience, as well as by-products and, of course, gold. Well, and secondly, an ebonite ingot is very expensive for merchants and blacksmiths, so only those players who have already become rich and can now not consider their costs can use this method. Therefore, it is recommended to try to get this material in other ways - especially considering that there are several of them in the game at once.
Red mine
If you abandoned the idea of buying this material, then you need to know where to look for an ebonite ingot. In fact, there are several places, but it is better to start your search from the village of Kamen Shora - part of it is the Red Mine, where you should go. Naturally, you need to prepare, because the mine is full of spiders that can cause you a lot of problems if you do not know what to do with them. By the way, you can wait until you get the quest "Red Mine", during which you will need to destroy all the evil in this mine. At the same time, you can get hold of ebonite ore, which can then be remelted. You don’t even have to look for a smelter - it is carefully located right next to the mine, and next to it you can immediately find three pieces of ebonite ore. In Skyrim, an ebonite ingot is a material that you can hardly find in finished form (except from merchants), so you will have to learn how to use a smelter, since you can use it to create ingots from ore.
Shadow mine
In Skyrim, an ebonite ingot can be created from ebonite ore, as you already understood, but there are not many ebonite deposits in the game that the protagonist is allowed to access. However, the largest mine is the Shadow Mine, and this is where you should go if you have a plan to collect a large amount of ebonite. In this case, everything is much more complicated than with the Red Mine, since this field is located in the Eastmark location, in the Narzulbur fortress. Already by name, you can understand that this fortress belongs to the orcs, so entry to other races is forbidden there. The main character is special, so he can prove to the orcs that he can be trusted by completing a certain quest, which he will be given in the fortress. A much simpler way to the mine is to be an orc, but this option, as you know, is suitable only for those gamers who chose the appropriate race at the beginning of the game. However, in Skyrim, an ebony ingot is a very valuable material, so you should get access to the Shadow Mine anyway.
Sanctuary of Merunes Dagon
In addition to the deposits of the ore itself, in Skyrim an ebonite ingot can be mined from a treasure chest, in which contents are randomly generated. Thus, each chest can become a potential source of hard rubber, but you should not really hope for it. As for the places where you are guaranteed to find ingots - it is only one. In the sanctuary of Merunes Dagon, where one of the quests will lead you, you will have to fight the Lords of Bremor, and on the way to this sanctuary - with various high-level creatures. However, as a result, you will fall into the treasury, where you have yet another battle with the Lords of Dremora. After the victory, you will be able to make plenty of money from the chests standing there, but if you are interested in ebonite ingots, then you need to pay attention to that chest in which is full of gold ingots - among them there will be three ebony. It’s not so much, but better than nothing. Now you know where to find ebony ingots - you need to understand how to make them yourself, as well as how to use them.
Creation of hard rubber ingots
If you have ebonite ore, then you will not be able to use it to create and improve objects - you just need ingots. But do not despair, because the game has twenty-two smelters scattered around the world that will allow you to create ingots from ore for free. Immediately it is worth noting that from two units of ebonite ore one ingot will be obtained, so you need to have an even number of pieces of ore so that later there will be no excess residues.
How to use hard rubber ingots?
So, you got a certain amount of ebonite ingots - it doesn’t matter how. What to do next with them? As already mentioned, you can make weapons and armor from bullion, only for this you need to either have a high blacksmithing skill, or turn to a professional blacksmith who, for an additional fee, will create the desired item from a certain number of bars. You can create ebony and daedric armor and the same weapon. Given that daedric objects are the most powerful in the game, you need to understand how important ebonite ore is, as well as the ingots that you get from it. In addition, you can use these ingots not to create items, but to improve them. Again, only ebonic and daedric gear can be improved. In general, such ingots will definitely come in handy. But what to do if you can’t get them in any way by all the above methods?
Cheats
If you can’t get the right material using honest methods, you can use the ebony ingot code. More precisely, the Player additem code is valid for adding any items depending on the value specified below. Thus, the final cheat on an ebony ingot is as follows: Player additem 0005AD9D.
