Ebony mail

[Mookie]

Idle complaint. My Listener may not be able to find a Dunmer follower worthy of donning the Champion's armour.
Her trainer, Athis has alien morals and is part of an alien organization.
Maybe it will be Aranea Lenith's fate, if she will wear it. Will it outweigh the advantages of Mage Armour 1?
Would it compromise my Listener, Sithis' dagger, if she wore it herself,I wonder. Thematically, it could fit. Codely, her skills are focused on that single killing blow....stealth, Armsman, illusion, alchemy. No feats and lots of points in Light Armour. Game wise, I'm not very good at dodging, so i don't use coded speed to advantage.

I suppose the question is, with Muffle and this heavy armour piece, iis 100 +sneak and/invisibility lessened?
If I use it on my own character, do I need to download the Unofficial Skryrim Patch to negate the aggro of the aura in sneak mode? I've never used this mod before.

I am attracted to this armour by the backstory, the look, and the "smoke".

well I used the ebony mail on my ps3 and i could sneak like it was light armour when i have 100 sneak. also i think the aura will not reveal where you are unless they bump into you. so you can crouch next to targets and slowly see their health go down

Good, thanks. She has acquired it, but I'm surprised how much more armoured she is in her DB at the moment. AAll those hits taken! do make a difference. Of course the DB has its own matching set boost. I'm very happy with the mail though and look forward to where it may lead her, with the slightly different mindset, tactically. And I anticipate collecting many more hits. If you are wearing mixed armour, I assume the skill goes with the part of the body that blocks the blow?

Yea you get xp for whichever part gets hit. That means if you wear a full set of heavy armour the skill will level faster. Blocking with a shield raises both skills at the same time.b Muffle is a pretty good spell if you're sneak ain't high enough yet. And you can combine the destruction auras with the mail for double auras.
