Magic in Oblivion Remastered is not only for display, it can be your strongest weapon, shield, and hidden ace. From burning enemies to healing yourself or turning invisible, learning new spells is the way to go. Here is the simple guide to get and create some spells in Oblivion Remastered.
How to create your own Spells
Spell crafting provides the chance to create custom spells other than those available within the game. You require an
Altar of Spell making
to do so. Two places where one can find such are:
The Arcane University
in the Imperial City (entrance into the University is earned by completing quests for the Mages Guild).
Frostcrag Spire
, a purchasable special house east of Bruma.

Once in the altar, you can select among the spell effects you know and combine them. You may decide how the spell functions depending on:
Range
(Does it affect just you, someone you touch, or a distant enemy?)
Magnitude
(In other words: How powerful is the spell?)
Area
(How wide are the effects?)
Duration
(For how long are the effects felt?)
All such considerations mean that the spell will cost more and more Magicka and Gold. The only limit to creating some monster of a spell is whether you have the resources to fund it!
How to find more Spell effects: Buy and learn
To create more powerful spells, you must first learn about the effects of spells. This includes buying new spells from various magic vendors. Most spell merchants you will find in:
Mages Guild Halls
(there is one in nearly every major city)
Great Chapels
(good for healing spells)
Various magic shops
such as Warlock's Luck and Mystic Emporium
Rest of the spell vendors can be found in Dunbarrow Cove in the DLC if you have upgraded the hideout.

Best buying Spell locations:
Arcane University:
best place for spells of every kind of magic.
Mages Guilds:
every city has a few very good experts. For example, Adrienne Berene in Skingrad specializes in Destruction magic.
Chapel
: priests usually stock Restoration (healing/protection) spells.
Tips:
If you're after a particular type of magic, it might be worth calling the guild or chapel first so as not to make the trip for nothing.
Be prepared to cast:
Some spells, especially the heavy ones (big fire attacks or some really strong summons), cost a lot of Magicka. You should be sure that before you purchase an expensive spell, you have the following:
Good willpower and intelligence:
A Magic Skill relevant to the spell, such as Destruction or Illusion, that is high enough to cast the spell.
Perhaps the most thrilling prospect, whether you are an iron-handed battle mage or a cunning spellcaster, is to add to that arsenal of spells. Seek out merchants, purchase spells, and experiment at the altar to create spells to your liking. The strongest magic in Oblivion is the stuff that you create; it is not something you find.
