The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Where can I get flawless amethysts?
1 of 3: You can find them randomly in dungeon loot, some store inventories, and while using a pickaxe to mine ore.
2 of 3: You can steal one from the temple in Markarth. Get the "The Heart of Dibella" side quest, then look on a bottom shelf in Hamal's room to find a flawless amethyst next to some gold coins.
3 of 3: There are a few other non-random flawless amethysts in the game, but they're very hard to get to, so it's better to wait until you get two random ones.
