There are a huge number of assemblies and builds in the world of Skyrim, but in any case, you cannot do without high-quality equipment. We share the 5 best swords from the fifth part of the Elder Scrolls!
Even when swinging a magician, a player in Skyrim still chooses one more discipline for insurance, most often a one-handed weapon. Swords also fall into this category. They are light, fast and deadly. Even with a low wielding skill, a sword can be extremely useful in combat.. Warriors, on the other hand, can combine several one-handed weapons or choose heavy two-handed weapons.
All weapons collected in our top can be looted in the vastness of Skyrim. You don't have to upgrade the blacksmith and enchanter skills to get the dream sword. However, these skills will help improve the found weapons.to make it even more deadly and effective. Here are the top 5 late game swords to find on the map.
Cooler
Take the stun potential of Blast Wind and combine it with Pale Blade. The result was the Cooler, a glass sword that makes most encounters in Skyrim easier. For those immune to paralysis, 30 cold damage and 15 base damage this blade will be lethal.
- Base damage is 10-15.
- Can be upgraded with refined malachite.
- Deals 5-30 cold damage and has a chance to paralyze the target for 2 seconds.
- Obtained in a secret room in the Mercer Fairy mansion. You can get there during the quest "Pursuit", a branch of the Thieves Guild.
Bloodskul Blade
The base damage value of this sword is quite high even for a two-handed weapon, but in practice Bloodskul is even better than its description suggests. This weapon fires energy bolts on heavy attacks, dealing 30 damage from such a blow. It can serve as both a melee weapon and a ranged weapon.
- Base damage is 21.
- Can be upgraded with a silver ingot.
- A power strike releases explosive energy from the blade, dealing 30 damage.
- Obtained during the quest "The Last Descent".
Dragon Scourge
The Daconbane, a blade obtained in the middle of the Skyrim campaign, is the best weapon for slaying dragons. This is a sword of blades that inflicts up to 40 additional damage to dragons if taken at level 46 or higher. It will add another 10 points of electrical damage to other enemies. It's amazing how much this blade becomes disadvantageous if you rush to get it (due to the binding of its power to the level of the character). Worth a little wait with the main storyline and come to Sky Haven Temple after level 46, and then you can get the maximum benefit from this weapon.
- Base damage is 10-14.
- Can be upgraded with a mercury ore ingot.
- Deals 20-40 additional dragon damage and 10 lightning damage to all other creatures.
- Obtained during the quest "Alduin's Wall".
Ebony Blade
This Ebony Blade is the two-handed sword of the Daedric Prince Mephala. The weapon absorbs the health of the enemy with each hit and transfers it to the protagonist. Although it is a two-handed sword, it spins just as fast as most one-handed swords. Each hit absorbs 10 health, but this increases to 30 after the player kills ten friendly NPCs. This weapon hits like a truck at full speed, heals the player, and can take advantage of two-handed weapons in addition to its fast attack speed.
- Base damage is 11.
- Impossible to improve.
- The blade is capable of absorbing 10 to 30 of an enemy's health on impact.
- Obtained during the quest The Door That Whispers.
Strangler and Blood Scythe
On its own, the Strangler deals 13 base damage with no benefit. However, when using along with Bloody Scythe, it absorbs an additional 15 points of magic per hit and lowers the enemy's magic defense. For dual wielding characters, these two blades are the best swords in the game to pick up. If you use it without a "brother", then the sword is good for the middle of the passage, but no more.
Like the Strangler, the Blood Scythe deals 13 base damage on its own. Combined with his blade brother this sword absorbs an additional 15 health per hit and lowers the target's armor. Players can heal most of the damage they take while weakening the enemy with each hit. This is an incredibly powerful combination that is difficult to replicate even with custom-made swords.
- The base damage of each is 13.
- Can be upgraded with an ebony ingot.
- When used together, the swords deal an additional 15 magic damage, absorb 15 health, and weaken the enemy's physical and magical defenses.
- Obtained during the quest "The Seal of Death".

I played with dual blades, and yes, the strangler and the bloody scythe are good, but about the fact that you can’t do better yourself, a rather incorrect statement, dragon bone one-handed blades are many times better even without enchantments, and even 15 damage to hp and magic on high lvl look like it’s a pity heel is a bit poor at least just to be usable on difficulty above adept
I really love the game "Skyrim", but chose a different path of development. Max out Archery, Sneaking and Enchanting. When these categories are fully pumped and there is an ebony bow with damage from fire and electricity, the character becomes some kind of monster in terms of strength. The black dragon takes out in 4 - 5 shots. Mammoth and giant need 1 shot.
My favorite tactic of the game is also through shooting and stealth, but one-handed weapons have always been added to the kit. So you feel more complete or something))
