Skyrim talk:Weakness to Magic

Does anybody know if Weakness to Magic makes the target more susceptible to non-damage effects like calm, fear, frenzy and paralysis?

Yes, it works on Frenzy. I used Poisoned to pickpocket a Weakness to Magic Poison onto a shopkeeper whom I had SetLevel 15 (double-checked that with GetLevel). Before the poison effect turned her blue, casting it returned the message that she was too powerful to Frenzy. After, she frenzied.

9th IngredientEdit

The Skyrim.esm holds another Ingredient with "Weakns. to Magic": MS03BlackBriarSecretIngredient

Don't know where and if you can get it, but it seems to be based on Salt pile, since it shares the same nif file.MarukiTheFaceHater 16:13, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

It's a unique version of Salt Pile. It likely had a role to play in the Promises to Keep quest that wasn't implemented in the game. —Legoless 16:39, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

Weakness to Magic and Dragon ShoutsEdit

Can anyone with the PC version test whether Weakness to Magic also affects Dragon Shouts, such as Fire Breath and Marked for Death? i.e., if I poison an enemy with Weakness to magic, will Marked for Death do more damage per second, and/or last longer? -- 01:31, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

can someone answer this cause its good question and i also want to know and if it affects shouts then that should be noted in both this page and on shouts pages Ciberzombie (talk) 19:51, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
We can assume for certain it affects shouts, since their effect is not different from other magic. There may be specific shouts that are not affected for some reason, but the damage of Fire Breath and Marked for Death should be increased for sure (though I do not know how the numbers of Marked for Death would be rounded). --Ethruvisil (talk) 23:01, 8 December 2019 (GMT)
