Gameplay Tips and Tricks
- Temper it at a grindstone with an Ebony Ingot. The Daedric Smithing perk doubles the improvement.
- Forge it with the Daedric Smithing perk, which needs Smithing 90.
- The Atronach Forge also makes it from an Ebony War Axe, a Daedra Heart, a Centurion Dynamo Core and a Black Soul Gem, once a Sigil Stone is in place.
- The Ebony War Axe has the same 15 base damage and weighs 1 less.
