Default Efficient enchanting training

Any good approach for this? Getting new kinds of items to disenchant is hard and I also need money from selling them. Putting weak enchantments on stuff is also slow when you need to fetch a soul into the star every time (and I need human souls). Any easier way? Someone who stocks cheap gems with small souls?

Me? I just steal everything in sight, and I've gone up a few enchanting levels from making poor enchants...

Pretty much this, unless you're of the mindset 'i don't steal things', lol.

I'd want it quite high before putting something on my dragon scale. I read somewhere that recharging weapons also raises the skill so having star and a weapon with soul trap seems like free supply of training. Too bad that I got the star that only takes human souls.

I went from 20 to 100 in Enchantment yesterday just by crafting as many Iron Daggers as I could (also raising my Smithing skill) and buying all the 'Lesser' and 'Petty' Soul Gems (that are already filled) from the Wizard in Dragonsreach, Whiterun. Just whack on an any enchantment and sell them to the vendors in town and wait 48 hours then do it again. And again. And again, well you get the idea. You could also go out and get the Souls yourself (which I did a few times for a bulk amount) but I found waiting and re-buying a little easier.

Maybe there's a quicker way but it went pretty fast and was fairly efficient for me. Also craft a few enchantment potions for better effect!

I did what JoBot 8000 just described. enchanting whatever I made to level up blacksmithing.

but I've read that you can level up enchanting using the quest reward from Azura's Star. I think it provides you with a permanent soul gem that you can keep refilling, if you have a weapon with Soul Trap. enchantment'll get levelled up every time you fill the gem, or something like that.

look it up in the wiki

I did this, and is by far the faster way, also you can make a lot of gold, no, TON of gold if you enchant the iron daggers with banish.

You need quite some good stats before doing it but trust me, the amount of gold is worth it, like, you'll be never poor LOL

-First travel to solitude, and go to the Fletcher's Store(the bows) with at least 5k of gold.

-He sells a bow with the enchantment banish(if he doesn't have it in the inventory, wait for 48 hours and rinse.), note that many players haven't found the bow because they are searching the name "Bow Name of Banishment" and it doesn't always say it like that. Because it depends on what level are you and how efficient the banish effect in the bow. In my experience, the name was an "Elven Bow of Expelling". What you are looking is at the effect of the enchantment, what banish do is banish summoned creatures from oblivion up to "input level", that's how you know is a banish enchantment.

-Of course buy it, and take it to a arcane enchant device, disenchant and learn banish enchant, and voila! daggers worth over 1k of gold and in some cases depending on the soul gem you use, over 2k gold.

You can do that just fine, but I also recommend getting the speech level to 100, and put 4 perks up to "Invest". Where you can invest 500 gold in a store.

-Go to Riverwood(general store), talk to Lucious, invest in his store and wait for 48 hours.

-Instead of having 1,148 of gold to barter he will have over 10k to barter, and this only happen to him, so I guess is a glitch I don't know.

-So, make a ton of banish daggers, go there, get 10k, wait 48 hours, another 10k, rinse...

-You're rich in less than 10 minutes, the faster way ever apart from the "console input" in the PC of course.

Excellent tips, thanks man. I've been tinkering with my enchanting skill, and I've already maxed out my smithing. This info will really come in handy to make some quick coin when I need it.

After you put a perk in "Invest", on the Speech skill tree. You talk to a merchant(whoever sells), and it will appear another option to talk like "Invest in your store".

You need 500 gold for that, the thing is that when you invest in a store it only sums 500 gold for ever but in Riverwood's merchant he will have over 10,000 gold(don't know why).

Glad to help, ask if you need any more information.
