Goldbrand is a golden katana bound to Boethiah, and one of the oldest artefacts in the series: it has passed through Morrowind, Oblivion and Legends before reaching Skyrim through its own Creation. It hits for 15 and carries a fire enchantment strong enough that most players never bother replacing it.
Weapon Enchantment
Burns the target for 30 points, and a target already on fire takes extra damage on top of that. The charge pool is deep enough for roughly sixty swings before it needs a filled soul gem.
Where to Find the Goldbrand
- The quest A Matter of Pride begins by finding Eranya in the Sacellum of Boethiah, east of Windhelm.
- The sword itself waits in Sivdur's Respite, the tomb the quest leads to. Boethiah cultists and Sivdur's Honor Guard stand between you and it.
Smithing Guide
Tempering it needs the Arcane Blacksmith perk, because the weapon is enchanted. The material perk below doubles what each improvement is worth.

Weapon Levels
Some weapons in Skyrim are Levelled. The power of a levelled weapon is based on your charcters level when you get them. Some get stronger in both physical and magical aspects, while others only improve their enchantments. These items don't get better as your character levels up.
