How to be 100% spell/magic absorbent - Skyrim SE

This guide will show you how to be 100% spell/magic absorbent, which means that you will take no damage from spells that hit you while absorbing them, increasing your max magicka.

How to do it -

STEP 1:
First off, you must go and look for the Atronach stone, it is one of the better if not the best standing stones in the game and is used for many class builds. once you find it, activate the stone and it will give you the ability to absorb 50% of spells and magic that hits you, but the stone will also decrease your magicka recovery.



STEP 2:
You will need to get to skill level 100 in alteration tree. This can be done (at any level) quickly by using spells like oak, stone, iron, and ebonyflesh when entering combat. Spells like Telekinesis, and paralyze can also be used to gain xp rather fast too.



STEP 3:
After you get the skill level 100, you want to get the Atronach perk at the top of the tree.
This will let you Absorb 30% of the magic/spells that hit you.



STEP 4:

Next you will need to obtain Miraak's robes.



You will need to kill him at the end of the dragonborn DLC main quest line to get the items obviously. Once you do that, and you already having the Atronach perk, and the Atronach Stone, which give you 80% magic/spell absorbsion combined, equiping Miraak's robes will give you an additional 25 points which makes your total spell/magic absorbtion percentage to 105%.

105% spell absorbtion pretty much makes you immune to all spells casted at you, and combined with the dragonhide spell makes you have the armor cap, aswell as total protectin from magic.





If you are a vampire, you can also do this without having to wear the robes. All you do is make sure you have the Necromage Perk. Make sure you get the perk first before the others. After that, head over to the Atronach Stone and activate it, then the final step is to tally the Atronach Perk and your done. These perks automatically make the effects stronger with the necromage perk if you are a vampire, and in total give you 100% spell/magic absorption.

Necromage as a vampire breaks the game, spell absorption is redundant at that point

[Dark Revan]

Does this still cancel out, your conjuration spells?

I had somewhere around 80% absorb and my conjuration didnt work any more because the spells where absorbed as well.

Had to make a beeline to kill miraak to get my alteration perks reset

@Ph3phl35 if you do it in this order: Vampire, Necromage perk, Atronach perk, Atronach stone, then all races absorb 100% of all fire, frost and shock. So ideally, you wouldn't want to be a nord (who has 50% frost resist), or a dark elf (who have 50% fire resist), or a breton (who have 25% magic resist) because that means all those passives are wasted. What this means is, the most powerful race in skyrim when it comes down to it is an Orc. Berserker rage is amazing for any class, mage, warrior, archer. No matter what you want to be in skyrim, a 100% spell absorbtion Orc is the way to go.

To explain the vampire version a bit. Assuming your not using the unofficial Skyrim patch, or a mod that changes your perks too much, this can be done.

*There are mods that revert the *Fix* in the unofficial patch.

The restoration tree has the perk Necromage that makes all (most) spells effecting undead more powerful and last longer, that means when you are a vampire and THEN get the Necromage perk all self buffs spells should be improved.

So that means.
1.) become a vampire.
2.) get the Necromage perk from the Restoration tree
3.) get the Atronach perk from the alteration tree. (Necromage will improve the effect)
4.) get the Atronach standing stone Buff. (this effect will also be improved)

5.) Enjoy your 100% spell absorb. Those two effects will add up to Exactly 100%. So you can wear any clothing or armor you want, and be any race you want to be.

This will also improve the strength of your gear enchantments, making them stronger while you wear them.

what race would be best suited for this or would that not matter?

Cool, good to know
