The Steel Ingot is an item used in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for crafting (creating items). Namely: it is used to create steel one-handed and two-handed weapons, steel armor, and to improve these items.

What is it for?

To create items from steel, you must have the "Steel Armor" ability. This ability can be selected in the “Blacksmithing” skill tree if you level it up to level 20. Steel armor protects the character quite well at first.

Armor and weapons are created using an anvil. In addition to ingots, you may also need other crafting ingredients. To improve equipment, you need a workbench (armor) or a whetstone (weapon). By upgrading items, you increase their characteristics, such as damage or defense. You can find all the necessary crafting machines at any forge.

How to get it?

Steel ingots in Skyrim can be obtained in several ways:

  • Craft it yourself. To create one steel ingot, one unit of iron ore and one unit of corundum ore are required. The smelting of ores into ingots is carried out in a smelter, which is often located in a forge right next to the anvil. The ore itself for the ingots is usually mined in the corresponding mines scattered throughout Skyrim, using a pickaxe, or purchased from blacksmiths and merchants.
  • Buy. Steel ingots are inexpensive and quite common. You can find them from almost any blacksmith, as well as some other merchants. A little trick: if you bought all the ingots from the blacksmith, but you don’t have enough to craft a set of equipment or level up a skill, then just sleep or wait a few game days - the ingots will appear in the merchant’s stock again.
  • Find or steal. You can find many ingots lying around in caves or near forges. If you're not afraid to get your hands dirty, you can steal a few from the blacksmith shops.

It can also sometimes be found as loot from draugr in dungeons, but this is purely random. It is much easier to mine or buy ore and smelt the ingots yourself.

Skyrim is an open world game. Here you can travel, complete the main quest chain, search for treasures, obtain resources, or complete additional tasks. All this helps character development. In The Elder Scrolls V, players are able to craft. Let's say blacksmithing. Forging weapons and armor is a good way to earn money and save on your own ammunition. But all this requires skills and resources. For example, ingots. Codes in Skyrim allow you to quickly give a character the required amount of appropriate resources. Next we will talk about how to take advantage of this opportunity. What do you need to know about mining ingots in Skyrim?

Description

Ingots are the main resource for blacksmithing. It is a product of raw materials mined in isolated ore deposits and mines. In order to get it, you need to work with a pickaxe and then smelt the ingot in a furnace.

Unfortunately, getting a resource in The Elder Scrolls is not as easy as it seems. Some types of ore are well hidden. In addition, the ingots are heavy. And therefore, to instantly create a complete set of armor and weapons, you sometimes have to use ingot codes in Skyrim. Or the player will take a long time to create ammunition for his character.

What are they?

It is worth paying attention to the fact that there are many types of ore in The Elder Scrolls. Including ingots.

The following blocks are currently available in the game:

  • gold;
  • iron;
  • steel;
  • silver;
  • corundum;
  • orichalcum;
  • ebonite;
  • metallic Dwemer;
  • purified malachite;
  • mercury;
  • purified moonstone.

Some resources can sometimes be found in or near forges. Bullion codes in Scarim will greatly simplify the search process.

Why are they used?

A few words about what exactly this or that type of ingot is used for. This is an extremely important point. It is possible that the player will not need a specific type of block.

The bulk of ingots are used in forging equipment - armor and weapons. The resource being studied allows you to improve your ammunition.

Some types of blocks (such as iron) are used during the construction of houses and estates or to create various items for sale (locks, nails, etc.).

Allows you to create high quality armor and weapons. Unfortunately, it is not so easy to obtain. And that’s why some players prefer to use codes for bullion in Skyrim.

How to use cheats

It's not too difficult to do this. Especially for those who have already dealt with the game console in The Elder Scrolls V.

To use Skyrim cheat codes for ingots, the player will need:

  1. Set the keyboard layout to English. In Windows, you need to adjust the operating system language settings. Otherwise, you won't be able to use the console.
  2. Launch the game and load the required save.
  3. While in the game, press the "~" button.
  4. Type the command player.additem.
  5. Indicate the ID of the item, separated by a space, and the number of issued resources of the selected type, separated by a space.
  6. Press the Enter button on your keyboard.

That's all. There is nothing difficult or incomprehensible. It remains to find out what codes for ingots exist in Skyrim. Otherwise, the player will not be able to give himself the required amount of resources for blacksmithing.

Codes

In reality, everything is much simpler than it seems. To give yourself bars of one type or another, you can use the following block IDs:

  • 0005ACE5 - steel;
  • 0005ACE3 - silver;
  • 0005AD93 - corundum;
  • 0005ACE4 - iron;
  • 0005AD99 - orichalcum;
  • 0005AD9E - gold;
  • 0005AD9D - ebonite;
  • 0005ADA0 - mercury;
  • 0005ADA1 - malachite;
  • 0005AD9F - purified moonstone;
  • 000DB8A2 - Dwemer metal.

However, when using a game console, the user may not type the first three zeros. The system will still understand which command to process.

Important: if you want to give yourself a lot of ingots using codes in Skyrim, it’s better to do it right away at the forge. When the bag is full, the character will move slowly.

The Elder Scrolls Skyrim role-playing game is famous for its variety and enormous possibilities for creating items. Crafting consists of several stages. First, the character must upgrade his blacksmithing skill, then collect the necessary resources and process them. Only after this does the creation of the armor and weapons themselves begin. One of the components for crafting is mercury ore ingots. Let's figure out where to get them and how to create them.

What is the ingot made of?

It is worth immediately noting that this item is not mined in finished form. First you need to mine or buy regular mercury ore. To create one ingot, two units of raw materials are spent. The resource is used for crafting Elven and Nordic armor or weapons. Each piece of armor requires one ingot of mercury ore, and weapons will require two units.

Resource location

Mercury ore can be purchased from merchants in the world of Skyrim. If you decide to buy all the resources for crafting, then the armor will cost you quite a round sum, so we will look at a more profitable way to obtain mercury ore ingots.

On the world map you can find a mercury mine. It is located in Dawnstar. Head along the west coast of the city towards the pier. The mine is nearby. Near it there is a smelter where you can process the extracted resources.

Work is already in full swing inside the mine. You can watch the mining on the sidelines or take part in it. In the first large hall there are two veins. The cooldown for each of them is 10 game days. On the upper level you can find several ready-made pieces if you are more careful. On the lower level there are two more veins and a skill book that will increase your blacksmithing skill.

After receiving the required amount of resources, we go to the smelter to produce mercury ore ingots. It is worth noting that during crafting the level of blacksmithing will increase, so you get a double benefit: you prepare items for future armor and pump up your character.

Cheat codes

If you are not interested in an honest passage, then use codes with the item ID index. You need to open the console by pressing the "~" key. Then enter the command player.additem 0005ADA0 X, where instead of X is the number of mercury ore ingots. After that, press the Enter key to activate the code. Now check your inventory for new items.

Now you know how to get mercury ore bars in Skyrim using honest resource crafting and hacking the game.

To make a steel ingot, you need to have one piece of corundum ore and one piece of iron ore. The necessary weapons and armor are made from steel ingots in the forge. The quality of steel items can be improved using a whetstone and a workbench.

Where can you find steel ingots?

It is possible to find it in a container;
Come across as random finds;
Often found near forges;
Also sold by shop traders and blacksmiths;
They are smelted in smelters using iron ore and corundum.

The most natural way to obtain a steel ingot is to smelt it. To do this, you first need to extract ore. To make a steel ingot you need two types of ore - corundum and iron. To extract them, you need to find a cave where workers are working. After pressing the "E" key, which in Skyrim serves as an action key, they will begin to mine ore.

Create items using their ID. For example, skyrim steel ingot id is 0005ace5. Many players use ID
items to get everything you need in the game.

Sometimes you need to get various ingredients, but they are not there (or they are there, but in missing quantities). Some people don’t want to learn blacksmithing, but steel ingots are urgently needed to make weapons or improve quality. You just need to enter the ID of the desired item through console commands, and it will appear like magic.

Smelter locations where steel ingots can be smelted

There are twenty-two of them in total, here's where some of them are located:

a. In the city of Whiterun, not far from the Warrior’s home;
b. Another is in the city of Windhelm, next to the blacksmith's house;
c. There are two smelters in Dawnstar, one at the iron ore mine and one at the mercury mine;
d. In Markarth, one is located near the caretaker's house;
e. In the settlement of Stone Shora, there is also a smelter, it belongs to the blacksmith Filnyar;
f. two smelters are located in the settlement of Karthvasten, which is located in the possession of Reach;
g. There is a mine in Keene Grove. Outside it, not far from the entrance, there is a smelter;

In the game, it is believed that weapons made of steel and steel armor have rather weak properties. Although it can be modified in any of the forges and strengthened twice.

The composition of steel armor is very diverse. The ID is indicated in parentheses and it is noted how many steel ingots are needed to make weapons:

Steel mace (00013988)-3
steel sword (00013989) -2
battle steel ax (00013983)-2
steel dagger (00013986) - 1
two-handed steel sword (00013987) -4
war steel hammer (0001398a) - 4
arrow (0001397f) -1
ax (00013984) - 4

Those who go the route of creating weapons by ID can familiarize themselves with the weapon codes. And those who walk patiently along the steps must begin by mining ore.


As you know, to make one ingot of steel, you need two pieces of ore and none, namely corundum and iron. Let's start with corundum. The easiest way to get to the mine at the beginning of the game is called “Golden Rock”. It is in the possession of Eastmarch, not far from the Black Ford. Now regarding iron ore. There are a lot of mines with iron ore and they are scattered throughout Scarlim, ore veins are quite easy to find, they stand out from the general texture of the rock.
