My single favorite memory from my first Skyrim playthrough is when I decided to collect all of the game’s Daedric artifacts. These all-powerful items created by gods themselves looked great in my trophy room, and the quests to get them are some of Skyrim’s most unique and interesting.

However, some parts of the game are disappointing, including many so-called “unique weapons.” I’m thrilled to report that the Bloodskal Blade is not one of those weapons. Not
