To receive this quest, the Dragonborn must first talk with Aranea Ienith at the Shrine of Azura, south of Winterhold. Ironbind Barrow How do you get black Azura’s Star in Skyrim? Where can I get the Soul Trap enchantment in Skyrim? It requires a minimum of 20 points in the Enchanting skilltree and the Enchanter perk. Soul Squeezer is a perk in the Enchanting skilltree which allows soul gems to provide extra magicka for recharging. It requires a minimum of 40 points in the Enchanting skilltree and the Soul Squeezer perk. Once the creature is killed you will see an animation of blue lights and in the top right hand corner of your screen it will say whether or not you successfully harvested the soul depending on whether or not you had a proper sized empty soul gem.Soul Siphon is a perk in the Enchanting skilltree which causes death blows to creatures, but not people, to trap 5% of the victim’s soul, recharging the weapon.

Abilities such as this will be listed on the weapons menu stats. The other option is to have a weapon with "soul binding" abilities on it. Option 1 is to cast a "Soul Trap" spell on an enemy then kill that enemy within the allotted time (typically 30-60 seconds). You must first of all have an appropriate (or larger) size soul gem in your inventory. The larger the soul gem, the greater enchantment they can place on an item and the more charges they can refill.Īll that being said back to your two options. Black soul gems are the only soul gem that can house the soul of a humanoid (khajit, argonian, elf, human, orc). Obviously, the larger the soul gem the more uncommon they tend to be with blacks bordering on all but impossible to find (at level 31 I have found 3) due to their necromantic nature and the fact that they are considered illegal in most parts of Tamriel. There are 6 sizes of soul gem: Petty, Lesser, Common, Greater, Grand, and Black from smallest to largest. The size of the soul is categorized by the general difficulty of the creature. Soul Gems can only hold a soul of corresponding or lesser size. There are two options to capturing the soul of a creature within a soul gem but first a little lesson in mechanics:
