Currently having nothing to do, so I decided to finish my crafting skills and leveled Alchemy 100. Did Smithing and Enchanting 100 before. Obviously you could snowball yourself even higher by popping a Fortify Enchanting potion, enchant new gear with Fortify Alchemy and repeat it, but this was the result of just one cycle. Unfortunately, farming Spriggan Sap is extremely tedious and each potions lasts just enough to finish 2 enchants, 3 at max. I have read about super-powered enchants with damage in the area of 3 digits, but havent figured out how to reach it without excessive snow-balling, which has lost its charme to me now for obvious reasons^^
For those interested:
1. Level Smithing, Enchanting and Alchemy to 100. Take perks which increase the effects of improving, enchanting and brewing. Save up Spriggan Sap!
2. Brew Fortify Enchanting potions. 3 were enough for me after some trying.
3. Get some unenchanted gear from a vendor and put Fortify Alchemy on it while under the effect of the Fortify Enchanting potion, which lasts only 30 seconds. Keep an eye on the tooltip to see if the value changes, because it would mean the potion has expired. You will need 12 grand / black soul gems to enchant everything. 5 for your crafting gear, 7 for your regular gear (Alternatively take Ring, Necklace, Armor, Helmet and Gloves and enchant Fortify Alchemy and / or Fortify Smithing on it to save space. Use light armor to maximize the space efficiency)
4. Repeat 1-3 or finish your gear
5. Brew Fortify Smithing potions while wearing your crafting gear. 1 potion will last definitely last for 1 visit at the grindstone or the workbench. Mine buffed improving for 127% in the first run.
6. Forge your desired gear.
7. Improve your gear while under the effect of a Fortify Smithing potion and wearing your crafting gear. It also lasts only 30 seconds. Again, watch out for the tooltip to change to the lower value.
8. Brew Fortify Enchanting potions while wearing your crafting gear. You will need 1 for every 2 items.
9. Enchant your gear while under the effect of a Fortify Enchanting potion. I like weapon damage, health, stamina regen and lockpicking as a dual-wield warrior-type character.
Enjoy your father-of-god-mode and melt faces.
Net material cost for one full run (potion materials are examples): 9 spriggan saps, 7 snowberries, 2 glowing mushrooms, 21 ebony ingots, 6 daedric hearts, 13 leather strips, 12 grand / black souls
