    A very base idea is to...

    Deconstruct every piece of gear you do not use, don't sell it for gold.

    Yes, it will take some time.

    If you can find someone else to pair with it helps out.

    Make daggers and swords then trade them to each other. Deconstructing items you have not made will give you more inspiration than the ones you make yourself.

    The colors matter as well. White gives you some, green a little more, blue even more... and so on.

    You will need to deconstruct a large number of items as you level.

    As you level up the B.S. skill don't forget about putting point into your passives, especially the one that lets you use the higher level ores.

    They are from "High Iron ore" nodes. You will probably have to go to a new higher level local to find them in any quantity.

    Travel and explore the map. You will need to explore new areas on foot until you find a new way shrine; then you can fast travel.

    A lot of the ore nodes are found along side cliffs and hills, so travel close to the rocks and you will have a better chance of seeing them.

    When you open up your map, you will see the Zone you are in. If you zoom out. you will see the whole of Tamriell. Pick a zone you have not traveled to yet, travel to it and see what level the mobs are there. If they are close to your level, you can explore it with a better chance of survival. If the mobs you come across are way higher than you in level,... Level up a bit before proceeding there. unless you are ok with :) dieing lots. lol.

    Yes, but you will have to walk or ride to them until you discover a way shrine there.
