EnchantingEdit
The following items use this effect. You can learn how to enchant custom items with Fortify Sneak if you find one of the following items and disenchant it:
- All varieties of Boots, Necklaces, and Rings of Sneaking
- Includes the enchantments of Minor Sneaking, of Major Sneaking, of Extreme Sneaking, of Eminent Sneaking, and of Peerless Sneaking.
Artifacts and unique items that use the effect but cannot be disenchanted include:
- Boots of the Old Gods
- Cicero's Hat
- Jester's Hat
- Movarth's Boots
- Nightweaver's Band
- Ring of MasserCC
- Shrouded Hood
Linwe's Boots can technically be disenchanted, allowing you to learn a special version of Fortify Sneak named Shadowstrength. However, Shadowstrength cannot be used to enchant any items because no enchanting slots are enabled for the effect.
BlessingsEdit
- The Blessing of Nocturnal provides 10% Fortify Sneak.
VampirismEdit
- The Nightwalker's Footsteps provides 25% Fortify Sneak.
NotesEdit
- If you are enchanting for profit, Fortify Sneak provides the most lucrative enchantment that can be applied to apparel.
- Paired with an overpowered Fortify Enchanting potion when enchanting custom apparel (see the bugs section of Fortify Restoration for more details), Fortify Sneak can be boosted to levels where you can sneak and hide from NPCs in broad daylight, regardless of base Sneak skill, distance, or if they are enemies and were actively searching for you.
BugsEdit
- The enchantment version of this effect increases the likelihood of being detected, rather than decreasing it.
- The Official Skyrim Patch, version 1.3, fixes this bug.
