dragonvale Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 Title says everything. Most of the ore veins in my game are iron, even in places where I am sure there should be another type of ore. I've read some post on nexus and I'm not the only one with this problem. Which mod can cause this? TIA My load order :
darkconsole Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 thats kind of normal. even in blackreach the chance of seeing ebony will be rare. i do not know for sure, but it feels like the chances seem to be based on the character level.
Gameplayer Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 Iron is the most prevalent ore type in the whole game. There are some places without iron, like 2 or 3 nodes around Whiterun. Easy way to find the mines is to do the random quests for Holds. Quite a few mines that have word walls nearby are like Ebony or Malacite.

My char is level 40, I think that must be enough to increase these chances. Iron is the most prevalent ore type in the whole game.

Quite a few mines that have word walls nearby are like Ebony or Malacite. I know all these things and I can confirm you that one of veins around Whiterun is corundum, but it's a very rare case. IE, the Redbelly Mine in Shor's Stone should have ebony veins, but in my game (char lvl 40) there's nothing but iron. Maybe I'm wrong but I've played old Skyrim for years and I don't remember a situation like this. Btw, thanks to you both for your help.
OrcishOatmeal Posted November 10, 2016 Posted November 10, 2016 I thought it was me, this is my first playthrough where i figured out you can just hit the rocks instead of pressing e and waiting for the ainmation, so i mine nearly everything now I find Iron everywhere in the overworld, sometimes its different only in dungeons but its very annoying, Im just gonna wait for that mod where you can just buy a mine and wait for ore to be put into a personal safe...
