help with level blacksmithing

I was leveling black smithing to level 6, nearly lvl 7.... now i just realized that for pretty much all of the cool styles i need to have it at lvl 10 :cold_sweat:
And i just grinded the rings and stuff for the side set i want next to the crafted...what a waste, should have read up on crafting before...

So i read that the fastest way is to basically deconstruct stuff other players have made and vice-verca... whats the easiest way to do that and how can i find other players for that? Or is anybody around that also wants to level black smithing and could help?

Thanks in advance!!

    Deconstructing intricate traited loot you find will help a lot too.

    You can also craft with another character on your account, bank the items then break them down with the character level them.

    Otherwise just level/play as normal and break down all your items you find apart from Ornate ones (always sell them).

    Hi there! I'm on the EU server also. :)

    Are you on PC, by any chance?
    If so, let me know your in-game ID and I can send you some stuff to deconstruct later tonight.

    If your talking about Motifs, some of them are locked to L9 or L10 in the Material Passive, That Material Passive does not unlock until L35(?) or L40 in the Blacksmithing (or other gear) Skill.

    In other words, you have a long way to go to make Daedric.

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Honestly, it's faster just to run delves for shards and deconstruct that loot. You'll need to run them for xp and skill points anyway. Or decon intricate stuff from writs.

    But this might be part of your problem - the higher level the gear, the more value in deconstructing it. If you're trying to level craft skills on a character that's like a level 30, it will take forever to get to smith 50 by tearing apart low level junk.
