Being added into the game with the Dawnguard expansion, which was the first official add-on forSkyrim, Dragon weapons and armor require dragon scales and dragon bones, along with other rare materials to craft. This gives thefamed dragon combat ofSkyrimmore purpose and utility, with the dragon parts that are available to loot after a successful fight now serving a higher purpose than just a high monetary value.
