Ebony Weapons are a class of weapons in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Unlike their angular, gold-laden counterparts found in Cyrodiil during the Oblivion Crisis, the Ebony weapons found in Skyrim during the 4th era have a curved, flowing appearance, swapping the gaudy, gold detailing for more subtle engravings. They are often viewed as the second best type of smithable weapon on the game, until Dawnguard, where they slipped into third. Despite this, they still offer very good use and high attributes. They can be upgraded into Daedric Weapons at the Atronach Forge.
