You can get Glow Dust in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered through several reliable methods:
1. Buying Glow Dust from Merchants
- Visit the Imperial City Market District , where two main vendors sell Glow Dust:
- Ogier Georick at The Main Ingredient
- Claudette Perrick at The Gilded Carafe
- Glow Dust costs around 71-78 gold and these vendors restock every 48-73 in-game hours, allowing you to buy more repeatedly
2. Finding Glow Dust in the Mages Guild in Bruma
- Go to the Mages Guild living quarters in Bruma.
- Glow Dust can be found on a desk in the living quarters after you join the guild.
- This is a one-time free source without fighting
3. Killing Will-o-the-Wisps
- Will-o-the-Wisps are ghostly enemies that drop Glow Dust with nearly 100% chance.
- Common locations include:
- Around Azura’s Shrine northeast of Cheydinhal (especially during the Azura quest)
- Swamps and forests near the Niben River south of Imperial City and near Leyawiin’s Blackwood region
- Near some Oblivion Gates, such as those close to Bruma
- Grey Rock Cave also has many Will-o-the-Wisps
- To kill them, you need weapons enchanted with magic damage, silver or Daedric weapons, or use Shock/Fire spells, as normal weapons do little or no damage
Additional Tips
- Will-o-the-Wisps appear more frequently at level 10+.
- If you want to avoid combat, buying from vendors is the fastest and easiest method.
- You can also use console commands on PC to add Glow Dust directly (ID: 0001EBE8)
These methods provide multiple ways to obtain Glow Dust for quests like the Azura Daedric quest or potion crafting in Oblivion Remastered.
