After completing the Power of the Elements book, you can purchase additional frost and shock Master-Destruction spells from Faralda in the College of Winterhold. The frost spell is Blizzard, while the shock spell is Lighting Storm. With a destruction skill of around 65, you can purchase the spell “Incinerate” from Faralda in the college. Fire spells are always available earlier than frost/shock equivalents, while Icy Spear and Thunderbolt are available closer to 75 IIRC.
To obtain the three master destruction spells in Skyrim, you must first complete the quest “Destruction Ritual Spell” at level 90 Destruction. This quest unlocks the Fire Storm spell and allows you to level up again after getting the Destruction skill promoted to Legendary. To unlock Master Destruction spells, you must complete the quest “Destruction Ritual Spell” upon reaching level 100 Destruction.
Faralda at the College of Winterhold sells and trains all Spells in Skyrim, but Master Spells must have quests completed to earn them. Once you reach Level 90, you must complete a quest from the people of the appropriate branch of magic from the Mage College.
The Destruction Ritual Spell is activated after achieving level 90 in Destruction and talking to Faralda. It might pop up randomly between levels 90-100, so keep checking back after each leveling session to see if the quest appears. By completing this quest, you gain the Fire Storm spell.

Want to learn how I could cast master level destruction spells without spending any Magicka? Check out my tutorial!
excellent guide, quick accurate and to the point, showed everything that needs to be seen and explained it in detail without wasting any time. Thank you, this is my 4th or 5th guide watched on this quest, ive watched a 4 minute guide and a 9 minute one that wasnt as thorough as this 90 second one, nice work brother.
After trying out all of them, my favorite by far, is the lightning storm. Let me explain, if you use it rightly, it can be insanely overpowered if you have enough magica. Blizzard and firestorm is an area effect spell and is powerful also, but you cant really do anything but that. But lightning storm is charged, but damages enemies per second, so you can hold the spell on them and absolutely obliterate your opponent
specifically faralda can be found either in the hall of countenance or the hall of attainment to the right or left just before going down the ramp to winterhold. be sure to check the corners of each room as sometimes the person you are looking for is simply sitting in a chair and can’t be seen unless inside the little room.
He meant lightning bolt right? The third stop for the master destruction spells is over by Markarth and you need to use Thunderbolts is what he said but I can’t find anyone selling that spell anywhere in the game. My Destruction is at 98 so the book should be for sale. (Never mind. Feralda has it. I have so many mods I think lightning bolt is one of them. It’s the only spell I had that came close. I thought it was a vanilla spell when I bought it).
@ZenWarriorMonk I do have a ranger but he is pure archery 100 archery 100 sneak 100 enchanting 100 smithing and 100 light armor every thing else is level 15. I love my pure mage with out impact tho he would not stand a chance against other mages on master difficulty. your build sounds kinda fun might try is later on.
For all of you out there wondering how are you going to cast any of the master spells, it’s easy. First, you need level 100 enchanting, next, get the dual enchantment perk, lastly, enchant your armor, helmet, ring, and necklace with fortify any 2 schools of magic. Mine is destruction and restoration. Now any 2 schools of magic are free to cast no matter what spell it is. (Each fortify is 25% reduction 25*4=100% reduction)*WARNING* DO NOT enchant the armor with the fortify blah and magic regen.
For everyone who’s complaining about not having enough magika, if you get enchanting to 80 then you can enchant your armour so that all destruction spells cost nothing to cast. Even master spells cost nothing. P.S. Lightning storm KICKS ASS’S!!!! On master difficulty I still dropped an ancient dragon in less than 30-45 seconds!!
Is this quest even possible to do without a guide? I mean god the directions could not be more vague. I got the first one on my first try, much to my surprise. The second one, I knew it had to do with the Throat of the World (the mountain), so I checked which way the sun came from and was like “Okay so it must be near the bottom on the left side”. Found nothing. Went to the top at High Hrothgar. Found nothing. Had to look it up online. The third one is killing me right now.
The master level spells look good and have good AOE but suck compared to augemented overcharged dual cast fireball/incinerate. They take way too long to cast in which I can’t do anything and I can’t move. Being a mage I’m not tanky so not moving results badly. They don’t stagger and overcharged spells tend to do more damage
Thank you I would not have figured this out by my self! I take my hat off to you sir for knowing what to do. I am only level 46 I have both mastered the Master Illusion spells and Master of Destruction spells. Question, there is a Mage at the college I find interesting because she has nothing so far to add, sorry as I write this her name has vanished from my memory. She blames Faralda all the time.
Help guys,I’ve got a problem about casting firestorm and blizzard … The thing is that when I’m tryin’ 2 cast those 2 spells the game says that my magicka is too low,not enough magicka if specifically ( Plz answer I’ve got about 370 of mp (with some stuff equiped ) Sorry for my english,it’s not my native lang. =)
Hi, I used the Oghma Infinium glitch and didnt level up my magicka enough to do all the master spells, does anyone know anyway I can level up past level 81 and upgrading my magicka? Please reply cos I love magic and the only way I can cast the master spells is by wearing expert magic robes and my Nahrakiin Dragon Priest mask and I love my Nightingale armor way too much! 😛
