Best weapon enchantment?

[Vynira Snowy]

What's the best enchantment for weapons and why?

And if it helps I use daggers.

Since most human enemies are Nords, it's not Ice. Daggers? Thief? Or Assassin? Or a combo of the two? If Thief, then Paralyze is very nice enchant. If Assassin, then maybe Fire/Absorb Stamina as a dual enchant. If combo then Paralyze and Absorb Stamina/Health.

Paralyze is great for Thieves because it makes an enemy motionless for x seconds. Then you can either move on to the next enemy, or finish him/her off.

Having Fire and Absorb Stamina for an Assassin is hightly useful, because if you end up having to fight for your life, fire does a little extra damage, most enemies are not resistant to it. And Absob Stamina because if you are dual wielding, then you use a lot of stamina in power attacks. Absob Stamina gets some of it back.

If combo then the reason for the enchants are already listed, or, in the case of Absorb Health, are self evident.

EDIT: To the best of my knowledge, hold guards are immune to Paralyze.

I find the chaos damage enchant quite fun, you need dragonborn to get it however. It has a "50% chance for each element of fire, frost, and shock to do <mag> points of damage." http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Dragonborn:Chaos_Damage

Paralyze is great against all enemies except dragons If you reach 100 on enchantments you can pick two enchantments I would pick paralyze and soul trap and or absorb health. There are also a lot of good mods that will make you weapons and enchantments more powerful. I use Tanis-half elven's chests that give you 1000 of every item in the game, Gloves of crafting which allows you to carry 1000 items, create 1000% more power weapons and alchemy items, and enchantment items. These mods helps me to make better weapons.

Fiery soul trap for sure, Damage + Filling soul gets to recharge the dagger. If you can fit two get absorb health incase you dont kill them the first time or Fire damage for the flat damage.

Two be more specific
Two Daggers One enchantment each
Fiery Soul Trap
Fire Damage

Two Daggers Two enchantments each
Fiery Soul Trap + Fire Damage
Absorb Health + Fire Damage

Paralyze/Fiery Soul Trap.

Gawd, crafting's already OP (and I've only ever used the alchemy/enchant loop on one character, I'm just talking about straight-up ordinary perked crafting and using normal fortify gear) is there really any need for this?

My fave enchantment is probably firey soul trap, although paralyse is pretty nice for some characters (and kind of funny for pretty much any character). I don't really like absorb enchants, they feel creepy to me, though I've had a couple of characters who really liked them, but then, they were both vampires, so, you know. Sun/sunfire enchantments are useful, but I've a feeling they're not in the base game. Wintermyst has some pretty cool enchantments, if you're interested in getting some less... vanilla stuff going on. There's one that's an explosive version of shock damage, another that has frost damage and then adds bonus frost damage if the enemy is resistant to frost, making it not completely useless against all the bloody frost resistant enemies in the game... Can't remember what else is on the weapons side, but it's got some very fun wearable enchantments, too.

Напишу на русском, (google translate helpt you, my english friend :D), будучи не уверенным в правильности написания на английском.
Самые толковые зачарования для оружия, на мой взгляд, это 50% нанести урон стихией(или как у Черного Двемерского лука судьбы - 50% шанснанести урон здоровью, магии или запасу сил) или "изгнание" - в виду дороговизны самого зачарования.

P.S.> а еще зачарование Notched pickaxe тебе должно быть знакомо :D:riften:
