What is the reward of the Black Star quest?

The reward for Skyrim's "The Black Star" quest depends on your choice: giving the star to Aranea Ienith yields Azura's Star, a reusable grand soul gem that traps non-human souls, while giving it to Nelacar results in The Black Star, a superior reusable gem that can trap any soul, including human (black) souls, making it generally more useful for enchanting, plus you get Aranea as a follower if you choose Azura's path. Both stars are powerful, weightless, reusable grand soul gems, but the Black Star's ability to capture human souls makes it preferred by many players.

Is it better to bring the star to Aranea or Nelacar?

For gameplay, giving the star to Nelacar for the Black Star is generally better because it easily traps powerful human (grand) souls, while giving it to Aranea yields the standard Azura's Star (only non-human grand souls); however, choosing Aranea unlocks her as a powerful mage follower, making it a choice between utility (Black Star) and companionship (Aranea).

Is it better to keep Azura's star or Black Star?

Black star is the best. Always guaranteed to give a grand soul and humans are infinitely more common than having to go out and get a mammoth or giant (or go all the way through a dungeon for a deathlord) just for a guaranteed grand soul. Black star is guaranteed to give you grand nearly every time you fight a human.

What is the Black Star quest in Skyrim?

The "Black Star" quest in Skyrim, technically called "The Black Star," is a Daedric quest for Azura that lets you choose between obtaining the reusable Azura's Star (for animal souls) or the powerful Black Star (for humanoid/grand souls) by finding a corrupted star in Ilinalta's Deep and deciding whether to return it to Azura's priestess or the mage Nelacar. Choosing Nelacar leads to the Black Star, which traps human souls (always Grand) for enchanting but requires you to cleanse it by confronting the mage Malyn Varen's soul inside, yielding the powerful, reusable Black Star.

Is it actually 7000 steps in Skyrim?

Trivia. In an interview, Todd Howard jokingly mentioned that he would count all the steps leading up to High Hrothgar to make sure it's 7,000. Counting each visible step will only get one to around 700–800, though the path itself is quite worn and snow seems to cover much of it.

What is the most powerful soul gem in Skyrim?

The strongest soul gems in Skyrim are the Black Soul Gem, the Grand Soul Gem, and the unique reusable versions, The Black Star and Azura's Star, all capable of holding the most potent Grand level souls for maximum enchantment power. While Grand Soul Gems hold creature souls, Black Gems capture human/NPC souls (always Grand), making them highly efficient, with The Black Star being the reusable version of the Black Gem, and Azura's Star the reusable Grand Gem.

How many souls can Black Star hold?

The Black Star, from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, acts as an infinite soul gem, holding only one soul at a time but never being destroyed, allowing for endless recharging of enchanted items; it's highly valued because it can capture black souls (from humans), which are always Grand, making enchanting much easier than farming white Grand souls from rare creatures like Mammoths. While described as only holding black souls, it can actually capture any soul type, but players prefer its consistent Grand soul capability.

Does the Black Star count as a Daedric artifact?

Yes, the Black Star absolutely counts as a Daedric artifact in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and counts towards the "Oblivion Walker" achievement, just like its counterpart, Azura's Star, counts for the "Daedric Influence" achievement. Both choices in Azura's Daedric quest give you a usable artifact from Azura, the Daedric Prince, making either one valid for the achievement, though the Black Star is generally considered more useful in gameplay.

What is the difference between Azura and the Black Star?

For gameplay in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the Black Star is generally considered superior because it can hold powerful humanoid "black souls" and, due to a common glitch/feature, also white souls, making it a reusable grand soul gem for enchanting; however, choosing the Black Star means defying Azura and not getting the mage follower Aranea Ienith, while Azura's Star offers roleplaying benefits and a companion but only white souls.

What is the most powerful soul gem in Oblivion?

The strongest soul gems in Oblivion for raw capacity are the Grand Soul Gem and Black Soul Gem, both holding 1600 charges for the most powerful souls. However, the truly best and most powerful is Azura's Star, a unique artifact that functions as a rechargeable Grand Soul Gem, meaning it never breaks and can be used infinitely for enchanting and recharging. Black Soul Gems are excellent for capturing human/NPC souls, while Azura's Star can hold any creature soul up to Grand level and be reused, making it the ultimate choice for sustained enchanting.

Is Grand or Black Soul Gem better?

A Black Soul Gem isn't inherently better in power than a Grand Soul Gem, as both hold the same maximum enchantment charge (a "Grand" soul), but Black Soul Gems are far more useful and strategic in games like Skyrim and Oblivion because they can trap humanoid (NPC) souls, which are easier to find and farm than the large creatures (like Mammoths) that drop Grand Souls. They are essentially a convenient way to get a Grand Soul whenever you need one.

Is it possible to max out all skills in Skyrim?

Yes, you can max all 18 skills to 100 in Skyrim, reaching level 81, but to get all perks (251 total), you need to use the "Legendary" system to reset skills to level 15 and re-level them, which allows you to gain more perk points and theoretically reach level 252 to unlock every perk without mods. It's time-consuming but achievable through gameplay, especially with clever use of skills like Illusion (Muffle) or Alteration (Telekinesis) and fast-traveling.
