Even though potion-making is not a core activity in Skyrim, some players are willing to spend hours searching for the necessary ingredients. Of course, Ancestor Moth Wing is not the most in-demand resource, since something like Blue Butterfly Wing can be used as an alternative. However, this does not make this ingredient any less valuable.
This wing will allow players to imbue the potion with four different effects depending on the ingredient combinations. Additionally, knowing the location of Ancestor Moth Wing in Skyrim can be helpful when traveling. So it's time to visit the ancestors.

Where To Find Ancestor Moth Wing in Skyrim
To find the Ancestor Moth Wing in Skyrim, players need to head southeast of Falkreath and find the Ancestor Glade. This place is hidden in a small cave on the mountain slopes, so finding it is not so easy. However, follow our steps, and you will achieve your goal:
- Once in the mountains, players can take Peak's Shade Tower as a starting point and head east along the paved road along the cliffs.
- A little short of Pinewatch Shack, turn right and follow the small path leading into the mountains.
- Having reached the snow, continue along the darker and trampled part of the path to avoid a rather sharp cliff.
- Having walked a little higher, you will find yourself at a small crossroads leading to the left and right, higher into the mountains.
- Players must turn left as this path leads to a dark cave leading to the Ancestor Glade.
Upon entering the cave, players will notice a chest and several other interesting items, but you should pay attention to something else. Moving forward, you will find yourself in a large cave illuminated by moonlight. Around you, there will be several waterfalls, stone structures, and many butterflies fluttering above your head. But even with the most dexterous hands in all of Skyrim, you won't be able to catch butterflies in flight and take their wings.
Players will have to wait until some butterflies land on flowers, after which you must quickly run up and collect them. Players will often get two Ancestor Moth Wings from one butterfly, but you won't be able to catch too many. Catching just a few Ancestor Moths, they won't land until you leave this place. But you can collect more when you return the next day.

How To Use Ancestor Moth Wing in Skyrim
Ancestor Moth Wing is used for brewing potions. But it's worth noting that the Ancestor Moth Wing has the same effects as the Blue Butterfly Wing and a Chaurus Hunter Antennae. Therefore, having a large supply of one of these materials, you will not have to look for others. So, using any of these ingredients, depending on the combinations, you can give the potions one or more of the following effects:
- Damage Stamina - 3 for 0 sec.
- Fortify Conjuration - 5% for 60 sec.
- Damage Magicka Regen - 100% for 5 sec.
- Fortify Enchanting - 1% for 30 sec.
