I've recently just got 100 smithing and enchanting and i have managed to create a daedric sword that does 209 damage also with 30% fire damage and can absorb 19 health points. I was just wondering what is the highest damage your weapon can do
If you exploit there is no limit. Except maybe the eighth Mersenne Prime or something.
But the highest I got without exploiting was 268 on 2 ebony swords I was dual wielding. That was using 100 smithing and NPC bought potions/enchantments.
153 on each axe, dual-wielding Daedric Axes, though I'm sure the damage would be higher if I had i elected to use maces (axe and sword specialty). Oh, and 100 smithing... -_-

there is a limit, due to the incremental amount of +enchanting effect you gain each time you go up a level of enchanted gear, from alchemy.
apparently i'm wrong. my mace wasn't crafted using that method, however. i'm currently using a daedric mace that has a base damage of 295, through legit alchemy/enchanting buffing, no restoration exploiting.
