How can I save my coins when enchanting with the fortify alchemy spell as described here? Does it make sense to use light leather clothes?

Choose lightweight equipment so you can carry it round with you. Go to the clothes shop in Solitude for a full range of dresswear to choose from, including gloves and circlets and hats. Saving your coins is irrelevant. Most clothing costs less than a single petty soul gem. edit: Following on from a good point about naming: you can use a "." full-stop at the start of the name. All symbols are place in the inventory first. I have mine named like: .Alchemist's Cowl etc... |

I just want to add to the other comments, be sure to name them otherwise things get really confusing. And don't name them hat of alchemy. Name it Alchemy hat, alchemy gloves, alchemy amulet etc so that when you equip them they're all in the same place. I wish I could name potions. Try my potion generator. |

Enchantments in Skyrim are the same, no matter what item you put them on (for a given skill level, soul size, and perks known). This means enchanting a pair of Leather Bracers with "Fortify Smithing" is just as effective as enchanting a pair of Daedric Gauntlets with the same effect. This is different from Oblivion, where item choice mattered, mostly because many pieces of clothing took up multiple "slots" on the character's body, and if you weren't careful, you could wind up with fewer enchants than if you had worn armor. |

If you don't mind abusing a glitch, you can wear a circlet and a forsworn helmet simultaneously, granting you 5 total items boosting your alchemy stat. Sadly, not possible with the chef hat :( |

4 items in apparel for alchemy-i personally use... gloves -weight .5 hat -weight .5 ring -weight .3 necklace-weight .5 now i have all these items Dual enchanted 30% Smithing/Alchemy " all except the Hat which won't take smithing,i singled with Alchemy and added smithing to my normal armor along with magika regeneration " saving money by Dual enchanting-saving weight by using the items i listed above. the price of the item from the crappiest ring to the most expensive sadly has not beneficial effect. hoped this helped |
