Convert to a defensive staff, illuminate, or recharge back to a magic staff at will ? Where to get the new staves ? 1- Kill enemy casters.

All staves have crafting recipes, and will unlock as you unlock the material-appropriate Smithing perk. 3- Vendors. Staves have been added to the leveled lists of Court Wizards. In addition, Rindirsen, a traveling staff vendor, has set up camp just outside the bridge to the Mage’s College in Winterhold to peddle his staves to aspiring mages. The staves available will increase as you level up. ? Requirements ? Staves of Skyrim requires Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE) as of version 1. 6.
