Best Answer

You can improve weapons and armour at the workbench or grindstone, if you have the appropriate items, usually metal ingots. However normally you can only do it to unenchanted items. If the item has an enchantment, then you can only do the above improvements if you take the Arcane Smithing perk.

Can dragon priest masks in Skyrim be improved?

Yes. You need the Arcane Smithing perk from the Smithing tree, before you can improve enchanted items. They 'count' as Daedric for the 'improve twice as much' bonus given by perks on the Smithing tree, so you can improve them normally with just Arcane Smithing, and twice as much with the Daedric perk.

Does it make sense for an assassin in Skyrim to know blacksmithing?

Smithing is useful for pretty much any character build in Skyrim. Coupled with enchanting, it allows you to make decent gear from the items that you acquire throughout the game. An assassin character that knows smithing and enchanting could smith some dragonscale armour (light) and enchant it with sneak and archery/one-handed bonuses.


Would it be better to start improving your bow in Skyrim after your smithing skill is maxed out?

There's no reason why you should wait until then. Every time you do the upgrade, it will update the bonus to whatever level your Smithing dictates. So say, you could upgrade it at Smithing Lv74 to Epic level, then when you max Smithing, you could do it once more to upgrade it to Legendary (only needs Lv91). You never 'lock in' a lesser bonus.

You might not have the right material, or you might not have the right level of Smithing, or the necessary perk for the material the bow is made from. You may have upgraded it already as far as your current skill levels will allow.
