This is a method of leveling your Skyrim Illusion skill very quickly using just one easy to acquire magic spell. Illusion magic is very useful for any type of character, and after doing this you’ll be a master of Illusion who can turn himself invisible at will!
First you need to go and buy a tome for the magic spell called Courage. It can be obtained from the court wizard at Dragonsreach in Whiterun city or from the College of Winterhold, as well as generally anyone who sells spell books. You’ll also be able to do this quicker if you activate the Mage Stone and receive its blessing before you begin.
Once you have obtained the Courage spell tome, learn the spell. Now you should equip the spell in both hands to make this faster. Find a guard in any city and start casting the spell on them repeatedly. They might complain at first but they won’t actually do anything as you aren’t harming them in any way. You will notice your Illusion skill increasing very quickly while you are doing this.
If your magicka doesn’t regenerate quickly, you can always set your character to wait for one hour and it will be fully replenished.

This really works!! Iv been doing it for about 15 mins at a time and it is going up. I always look for a guard who stands still to make it easier. Great tip! Any tips for increasing destruction?
Get a horse and cast your destruction spells on it, then heal it, rinse and repeat. I’ll write an article.
Here is also a good method for training Destruction:
1.Go to Whiterun
2.Go to the companions HQ(Just below the dragonreach palace.
2.When you,re in go to the right and head downstairs.
3.Go to the end of the hall and there will be two people sitting around a small table
4.Talk to one of them.
5.he will take you to the fighting area.
6.When he says to hit him, cast your destruction spell you wish to use.
7.He keeps saying not to use your magic.
8.Keep casting your magic.Enjoy!!!
**Note**
He will have a couple of swings at you but if you cast a spell at him he will seathe his weapon,then continue your levelling again!!.
got a name? i talked to alot of ppl and i didnt find two guys sitting down. i am in the middle of companions questline. do i need to finish it?
No, you need to have not started it at all, he’s talking about when Kodlak makes Vilkas test you.
okay,thanks.
I do not recommend this at all. i tried this and it glitched the game so badly. Vilkas kept repeating phrases over and over and it wouldn’t let you continue and he would just try to talk to you and then attack you and then talk to you and then sheath his weapon. This works pretty well if you have no interest in the companions storyline but it will mess up Vilkas.
And he wont lose his health at ALL!!
for training any such magic skill, i highly recommended that you use, archmage robe,Sayos Aren’s amulet and the mask nahkrim and also Gauldur amulet fragment. 180+ magicka boost and magick restores 100% faster and ALL spells cost 15% less.
I found that Muffle works even faster, and if you enchant a full set of Fortify Illusion and Magika Regen gear, you can dual-cast it almost as fast as you lose Magika. Got me to 100 in a matter of minutes.
I find that casting Muffle on the go is a great way to level Illusion. The Master spells are BEAST!
Once your illusion level is about 25 to 30, go to Farengar and buy an Illusion spell called Muffle. Using Muffle raises Illusion faster.
the fast way to level destruction is to steal a horse take him to a quiet area then use ruin on him get on him wait one hour then repeat
1. Level Alchemy and Enchanting to max
2. Create potions and gear to max attributes
3. Create Necklace, Ring and Circlet to to reduce the cost of Illusion spells by 29% each.
4. Don a Master’s Robe of Illusion (22% reduction + 3x 29% = 109% reducing = free casting)
5. Get to level 90 via the normal methods.
6. Complete the Master Illusion quest.
7. Get Harmony.
8. Go to Markarth Inn at 8 pm (when everyone is there for dinner.)
9. Stand behind the bar and cast Harmony.
10. Level to 100, and legendary the skill.
11. Keep casting, the first cast will take to from level 15 to level 47.
12. Goto step 10.
