Where can I find the Fire Atronachs that carry fire salts?

Question

The smith in Riften requires 10 fire salts. I realize they are available from Fire Atronachs but where can I find these creatures? Also, do you recommend a level range for taking them on?

Answer

Here are some places where fire salt can be obtained:

• 1 can be stolen or purchased from Arcadia's Cauldron in Whiterun.
• 1 in Fort Amol Southwest from Windhelm .
• 3 may be available during the Hitting the Books quest.
• 1 can be found in Forsaken Cave on the right shelf next to the white phial
• 1 can be found during the The Black Star quest.
• 3 can be stolen from Septimus Signus in his outpost.
• 2 can be purchased from the Alchemist that appears when restoring the Thieves Guild.
• 2 can be found on the shelving to the left of the alchemy station after purchasing the alchemy lab decoration for Honeyside (Riften player housing).

Typically, whenever I find a dungeon that contains conjurers, there are some unbounded flame atronachs around.
