In need of some soul gems to recharge your enchanted weapons but not sure how to get the souls into them? Let me show you how!
Step 1)Get empty soul gems to fill.
You'll need the gems to fill up with souls before you can even get started. You'll find these just about anywhere in your travels, they are literally all over the place. You don't need to go out and find them at all if you have the money to just buy them. Any shopkeeper who deals in magical or alchemical ingredients will stock up on these as well. Keep in mind, you can fill larger soul gems with smaller souls. If you are going to go out and try to farm a lot of smaller souls, don't bring any bigger soul gems or you'll fill those up by accident too.
Step 2)Get a soul trapping weapon, or the soul trap spell.
This spell can be found from many merchants who sell spells, it is fairly common so if they don't have it in stock when you first go see them, wait a day or two and try again. If you are looking to farm a large number of souls a little easier though, get a weapon that can trap them instead. These can sometimes be seen sold in shops, or you can enchant one yourself. Once you are armed with either of these, head out to find animals to steal the souls from.
Step 3)Kill animals to trap their souls.
Cast soul trap on any animal before you kill it and you will capture it's soul if you have a large enough soul gem in your inventory. If you keep your soul capture weapon charged any time you kill something with it the soul will become captured as well if you have a large enough gem.
Remember, if you are looking to capture black souls, you'll need the gem for that and will need to kill any playable race such as a human, orc, or khajit.
