How to get all master destruction spells in Skyrim? ›

You can buy all Spells in Skyrim from the College of Winterhold, but the Master Spells must have quests completed to earn them! Once you reach Level 90 in each Magic Skill, you can talk to one of the Experts at the College of Winterhold to start a Quest for the Master Magic Spell from each college of Magic.

Master spells cannot be purchased initially. To unlock Master Illusion spells, the "Illusion Ritual Spell" quest must be completed upon reaching level 100 Illusion. Targets have improved combat skills, health, and stamina for 10 minutes. Creatures and people up to level 25 nearby won't fight for 60 seconds.

Seriously, if you can get your magicka to about 250 - 300 area (if you're going for a pure mage, maybe even more than this), you'll be fine. More importantly, I'd suggest that you begin grinding enchanting up to 100 so that you can take advantage of its ability to reduce the cost of each school of magic.

If you need to prevent NPCs from attacking you, Pacify is the strongest spell you can use. Even though there is a master variant of Pacify, being able to dual-cast Pacify allows it to affect higher-level targets than Harmony—a master variant of this spell.

Players should always aim for high Alchemy and Enchanting to maximize the possibilities on damage numbers. If players know how to make the most overpowered potions in Skyrim, then they can see themselves benefiting from magic damage and enchanting bonuses of well over a number of 1,000 and beyond.

The cost goes up if you have the relevant dual casting perk and dual cast it. The most expensive spell in the game costs 1426 magicka base; with dual casting, the most expensive spell that can be dual-cast costs 2344 (both values have been rounded up).

The fastest way to level Illusion and Restoration

Firstly, you can cast Rally on NPCs without turning them hostile, meaning that spamming it in heavily-populated areas is a fast way to level. Second, you can also cast Rout and Pacify on a single enemy, equipping one spell to each hand.

Finally, the two Master-level spells, Conjure Ancient Deathpriest and Conjure Ayleid Lich, are by far the best spells Conjuration has to offer. Both of these legendary beings wield powerful Destruction magic and can also raise the dead to fight for them.

Master spells can't be purchased initially. To unlock Master Alteration spells, the "Alteration Ritual Spell" quest must be completed upon reaching level 90 Alteration. Caster ignores 80% of all physical damage for 30 seconds. All targets in the area that fail to resist are paralyzed for 15 seconds.

As for learning Adpet spells, they can be found in books that are scattered across Skyrim in dungeons and enemy mages. The easiest way, however is found in the College of Winterhold in the North Eastern part of Skyrim.
