Ingredients

There are no guaranteed samples of histcarp. Nevertheless, it is categorized as a common ingredient, meaning that all apothecary merchants have a 36% chance of carrying 1-5 samples. In addition, it may be randomly found in some barrels and in apothecary's satchels. Other possible locations for already-harvested samples include:

• Fish barrels have a 25% chance of containing histcarp.

Creatures

Fish appear at fish spawning sites. Each spawning site generates one to three fish, which are randomly selected from various types of fish. In ponds and shallow waters, histcarp have a 20% chance of appearing; in deeper water, histcarp have a 14% chance of appearing. There are 691 spawning sites in 128 different locations. Locations with the greatest numbers are:

• 30 around the Apprentice Stone (Hjaalmarch)
• 22 around the Abandoned Shack (Hjaalmarch)
• 22 around the Wreck of the Winter War (Winterhold)
• 17 around Goldenglow Estate (The Rift)
• 15 around Geirmund's Hall (The Rift)

Notes

• Histcarp's Fortify Magicka, when combined with Salmon Roe, is of a 5 second duration. Even if you use the Fortify Restoration bug to make overpowered potions, the duration is still 5 seconds, hardly of much use, especially in the heat of battle.
