What is a Daedra?

In Skyrim Oblivion, The Daedric Princes are important figures. Daedra is a peculiar enemy that stands out amongst Skyrim's natural, ethereal, and mechanical enemies. Daedra roams the lands of Skyrim in several forms, from Dremora to Atronachs to Scamps, Daedra Marr Skyrim's landscape in Mage covens, dark dungeons, and otherworldly planes.

What are Daedra Hearts?

Daedra Hearts are essential for crafting potions on the higher end. They're also a necessary ingredient for smithing recipes. Deadra Hearts are rare enough to get a steady supply. There are a few places where players can find guaranteed samples.

Where to find Daedra Hearts?

Daedra Hearts may be found in three places in Skyrim: throughout several Daedric Prince tasks, in the Atronach Forge, or taken from dead Dremora and other Daedric opponents. The first approach is the simplest: do some Daedric Prince quests and loot every body and every container you come across for Daedra Hearts. At the Atronach Forge, combine a Sigil Stone, a Human Heart, and an empty Black Soul Gem to make a Daedra Heart. If all else fails, look for Dremora in the forts, dark wizard covens, and dungeons of Skyrim. Surprisingly, Thalmor agents roving the province rarely carry them, although others argue it is "illegal" and "immoral" to murder Thalmor agents wherever they might be found.
