How to Cast Magic Spells & use shortcuts in Oblivion Remastered (The Elder Scrolls IV)
In The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, casting magic spells and using shortcuts can greatly enhance your gameplay. Here’s a concise guide on how to cast spells and set up shortcuts:
Casting Magic Spells
Learn a Spell:
Acquire spells by purchasing them from spell merchants (e.g., Edgar Vautrine at Edgar’s Discount Spells in the Imperial City Market District), receiving them as quest rewards, or finding spell tomes (introduced in some mods or DLCs like Wizard’s Tower).
Ensure your character has the required Magicka and skill level in the spell’s school (e.g., Destruction, Restoration) to cast it effectively.
Equip the Spell:
Open the Inventory Menu (default: Tab on PC, B on Xbox, Circle on PS).
Navigate to the Magic tab.
Select the desired spell from the list. It will equip to your active hand, replacing any weapon or shield unless you’re dual-casting (rare in vanilla Oblivion).
Cast the Spell:
Press the Cast Button (default: C on PC, Right Trigger/RT on Xbox, R2 on PS).
For Touch or Target spells, aim at the target (e.g., an enemy or NPC). A crosshair indicates your aim.
For Self spells, simply cast without aiming.
Ensure you have enough Magicka (blue bar). If it’s depleted, you’ll need to wait for it to regenerate or use a Restore Magicka potion.
Types of Spells:
On Self: Affects only you (e.g., healing or buff spells like Restore Health).
On Touch: Requires you to be close to the target (e.g., Shock Damage).
On Target: Cast at a distance (e.g., Fireball).
Some spells require continuous casting (e.g., Light), draining Magicka over time.
Tips for Casting:
Increase your skill in the relevant magic school (e.g., Destruction, Illusion) to reduce casting costs and improve effectiveness.
Equip items with Fortify Magicka or Fortify Skill to boost your casting ability.
Avoid casting in areas with Silence effects or if your Magicka is drained.
