Awesome and you're welcome, have fun!

There weren't any issues, ty!

Aight, good luck and enjoy (if things go well).

I'll give it a try for now, and will come back to you

It might. If the Arcane Blacksmith perk is removed utterly and not replaced with something else, then you wouldn't be able to forge the sword. In theory at least, I don't use any smithing overhauls myself so I don't exactly know how they'll mesh. You could give it a shot and put this mod above your smithing mod in the load order and see what happens. Be sure to get back to me on your results in case I might need to make a patch.

So, I'm using a mod that removes arcane blacksmith and changes smithing a bit, will this conflict with the pre-requisites to forge this weapon?

The Black Sword is hardly "normal." While there is an unenchanted version (the "unbalanced" Black Sword), the complete version allows you to rain fire on your opponents, has a chance to instantly kill, can soul trap and is a reusable soul gem, and will replenish your magicka while draining your opponent's life. Now I, personally, don't like to make a sword like this super easy to obtain. If it was something more mundane, I'd treat it as such, but as it's not the case here I tried giving a bit of challenge to the process of making it. Since the initial release I've done my best to make finding Blackrock a little easier, and I MAY adjust it further, but ultimately I'm not going to make it plentiful.

why did you make it so hard to find a black rock its just a normal sword i dont fucking care about the stats i just like the texture

never mind

it's not showing up to craft help

ok ill keep trying

@archosatrum Make sure, too, you let the mod update, since the most recent update (well, if January can be considered recent) adds more potential sources for Blackrock. Dwarven boss chests and Centurions can be a good source of it, and it can (albeit rarely) come out of ore veins as well. Falmer can have it now and then, too.

@archosatrum You gotta look harder. I found 1 Black rock, so they're definitelly around.

Ive had this mod forever and im over lvl 150 but i cant find any, could you plz tell me like the item code for the black rock or something?

This sword is amazing for mages that use a meelee weapon Due to the Magicka draining enchantment. Only downside is finding the materials to forge it. Though I found 7 pieces in Blackreach (sheer luck I guess) and Im scouring all dwemer ruins for 3 more pieces. Good mod either way. Very nice look to it aswell.

Very nice.

Yeah this is an immense amount of work over something like this honestly I could go to every dwarven and falmer based location in the world and never find a piece of this Blackrock you'd think earning the smithing skill would be sufficient enough challenge to ensure lower level characters won't obtain it... I just liked it for it's appearence.

You need at least one piece of blackrock before it shows up in the forge menu at all, if you have both the Ebony Smithing and Arcane Blacksmith perks, and it'll only show up at the Skyforge. Since it uses a custom material keyword, it'll show up in the Misc category when the conditions are met.

sooo I don't see it in crafting and yes i'm well beyond capable of forging it and beyond level 18

I have noticed that Falmer Warmongers and Dwarven Centurions are ripe places for Black Rock hunting.

ok tnx

It's only craftable, but you need 10 blackrock to make it and it's not easy to come by. The Black Sword was straight-up forged in Ultima 7 and that's why it's craftable here.

wereisit ocated? or is it crafteble only?

I know the blackrock leveling is rather derpy, even after the several adjustments I've made to it. I have an update in the breech, though, that should possibly hopefully maybe make finding the stuff less of a pain in the bum, I'll be getting it out as soon as I can.

could you make it so that there's like 2 or 3 peices available from the companions after you finish the companion quest, i installed his mod at level 25, now im at 51 and i still haven't found a single peice, i even have dawnguard so i encounter falmer and dwarven spiders and shperes more often. i can seem to get any peices, its takiing forever, im at the point where if i don't find any soon, im gonna console command in 100 dwarven enemies at a time until i find some. please help

Retribution reborn :D

ok i have those both thanks i was looking for it all day XD how stupid of me not thinking of going to the skyforge lol

Plus you also need the Ebony smithing perk and the Arcane Blacksmith perk to do so.

You have to forge it at the Skyforge, any old forge won't do, and the Unbalanced version will show up under the Misc category. It'll only show up when you have blackrock in your inventory as well.

which category is it forged in i cant seem to find it anywhere in all categories?

The sword can only be made, not found, but in order to do so you need to find 10 pieces of Blackrock. Blackrock can be found rarely on Falmer and more commonly on Dwarven Spiders, and has a chance at showing up on Centurions and in Dwarven boss chests. The leveling will be adjusted some in a future update since at the moment it's fairly rare. Once you get the required amount of blackrock, you use it to forge the unbalanced version, which you then use to forge the complete version.

wear do i find this

Thanks

You should be able to use quotations in the console, unless the key is broken on your keyboard. Alternately you could type help blackrock to get the ID number of blackrock, and then player.additem 10 or more of it so you can forge the sword.

and I can't use quotations

Well it doesn't really show it

Best thing to do is type help "black sword" into the console, that'll tell you the ID of both versions of the sword. There's an update coming that does some additional tweaks to the blackrock leveling so it shouldn't be as big a pain to find the stuff.

How do I get the id of it?

Eating a can of spam is difficult... I think it tastes gross. Great mod, though.

cool

It should, I run this as well as the Infinity Sword and Silmeri, and they all get along fine.

does it work with your other awesome infinty sword-like mods

To add an item to your inventory you do player.additem [item id] [quantity]. The help command just shows you the ID number for the sword.

ok, I tried putting the help "black sword" and then the nuber I wanted it said unknown error with 'add'

No problem, mate, glad that you figured out the culprit. :3

Dneska jsem skoušel podle Vaší rady postupně vypínat jednotlivé mody a zjistil jsem že vypinání hry způsobovaly mody: New Perks a Physical.Děkuji Vám za veškerou Vaši pomoc.

Well, you can try turning mods off and checking each time to see if the problem clears up after each deactivation, or, you can load a save from before you became a werewolf and check to see if you still get the crash after you become one again. It's possible the problem is "baked" into the save it's occuring in, so loading a previous save might clear the problem. I'd suggest trying that first before doing my first suggestion.

Udělal jserm vše podle Vašeho návodu čili : vypnul jsem mody na upravu toho stromu s těmi perky u vlkodlaka a taky mody na fyziku a pořád se mi ta hra vypina.Co dalšího mi doporučujete?

Well, I can safely say my mod isn't at fault for that CTD (crash to desktop) issue you're having. I poked around on the net myself and found a few other people having the same problem, it seems it's caused by a mod conflict or a load order issue. If you have any mods that modify perk trees, disable them and see if that fixes the problem. I've seen some things saying the Physical Adept mod can cause this, so if you have that disable it and see if it stops. Check your load order too and make sure the Dawnguard.esm doesn't have any esp's loading before it, like unofficial patches or things like that, that could wonk things up.
