Master Level SpellsEdit

Master-level spells are different from lower-level spells:

They always require both hands.
They take 3 seconds to complete.
You cannot move while casting.
They may be interrupted by stagger attack.

Other than the Alteration spell Dragonhide and the Restoration spell Guardian Circle, master-level spells do not benefit from dual casting perks.

When in combat, master-level spells are tricky to use because of the time required to cast them. Furthermore while casting them, you are completely vulnerable and can be interrupted by any sort of attack. Some ways around this weakness are:

staggering your enemy first with a dual-cast spell. Ice Storm can stagger multiple enemies at once.
combining them with shouts such as Become Ethereal or Ice Form.
combining them with illusion and alteration crowd control effects, such as Pacify.
using followers or conjurations as distractions.
combining them with high level flesh spells.
casting them from sneak.

Spell Notes

The base cost for spells is the amount of magicka that would be necessary to cast the spell at 0 skill without any perks. The magicka cost at 100 skill is 41% less than the base cost; the cost can also be reduced via enchanted apparel and by unlocking various perks. See Spell Cost for the full magicka cost equation.
Skill level indicates which skill perk needs to be unlocked to decrease the spell's magicka cost. "N/A" is used for special spells whose cost is not affected by any perks.
The "Where to Get" column only lists guaranteed locations for obtaining the spell tomes. Most spell tomes are also available in random loot; see Spell Tome Locations and the table below for details.
For higher-level spell tomes to become available for purchase, your skill in the school must be high enough (see the table below). Also, master-level spell tomes can only be acquired once that school's ritual spell quest has been completed.
All spell tomes have a weight of 1.
Skill XP can be modified by scripts and by the game engine itself under various circumstances. The exact XP you receive may vary from the numbers listed here.
Magicka cost and skill XP are rounded down, both in game and on this page. Because of this, you may find that you cannot cast a spell even though it appears you have exactly enough magicka to do so.

Tomes by Level
Spell Level	Skill Level	Character Level, Boss Chest	Character Level, Random Chest
Novice	0	1	1
Apprentice	0	11	10
Adept	40	23	-
Expert	65	35	-
Master	0/90^†	-	-

†Master level spell tomes require the appropriate ritual spell quest to be completed to be sold; while the quests have a skill level requirement of 90 to initiate, if you have completed the quest and reset the skill by making it legendary, the spell tome should still be available for sale.

Spell Tome LocationsEdit

Most spell tomes can be purchased from merchants. Novice- and apprentice-level spell tomes can be purchased from the court wizards found in each of Skyrim's cities. Higher-level spell tomes are more difficult to find: Each court wizard only stocks the adept-level spells for one school (Farengar, Madena and Wuunferth for Destruction, Falion and Calcelmo for Conjuration, Sybille Stentor for Illusion and Wylandriah for Alteration) and the expert-level spells can only be purchased from the specialist mages in the College of Winterhold. Also, adept- and expert-level spell tomes only appear in the mage's merchandise when your magic skill is high enough (40 for Adept and 65 for Expert spells). After reaching the required skill level, you must wait for the mage's merchandise to be reset (typically two days in-game), or, save, then attack the merchant and reload, before the new tomes will appear. Master-level spell tomes can only be acquired once that school's ritual spell quest has been completed.

Nearly all spell tomes can also be found randomly as loot. The only spell tomes that can not be found randomly are quest-specific spell tomes (those that can not be purchased), tomes added by Dawnguard or Dragonborn, and master-level tomes. The appearance of random tomes is dependent upon your character's overall level (but is not related to your skill in the magic school, unlike tome purchases):

Novice: level 1+
Apprentice: level 11+
Adept: level 23+
Expert: level 35+

Those random loot tomes may be found in boss chests and safes. With the Merchant perk unlocked, there is a small chance that tomes are sold by blacksmiths. With the Dawnguard add-on installed, tomes can also be purchased from Morven Stroud.

Additionally several chests may contain low level tomes dependent on character level. Those may be carried by several spellcasters too:

Novice: level 1+
Apprentice: level 10+
