What's your favorite armor?

Post by Immortal NPC »

I'm personally fond of some nice looted imperial legion armor, or some awesome orcish steel.

Oh, and include your enchantments on your armor too.

That armor you get after completing the main quest is pretty dank looking.

I like a nice set of perfect madness armor. Or the Crusader armor. Or some glass. I think I'm the only person who likes its color

I currently use Madness armor due to its strength, but admittedly it's pretty ugly. KotN armor is really nice. Also Daedric.

The Orcs decided that their weapons were too inefficient. So left them behind.

I've always been fond of the Dwarven set (Yay Morrowind)! Where the heck are the pauldrons this time around? A full daedric set with one of the mask helms looks cool and Ebony just looks sleek.

My character looks so cool. And he is a Bosmer yes a Bosmer in heavy armor and very proficient in it.

I think Ebony Armor looks best probably...at least for the High Elf I play. (except the helmet, no helmet looks good on him really). It's what I'm wearing with my statue (with Chillrend, best weapon in the game) :D

I'm a fiend for light armor. I usually keep my leather armor until I can get glass.
my favorite heavy armor would have to be daedric; although it's irrelevevant since I play almost exclusively mage type characters, and am thus more often sporting an enchanted robe than anything else.

just a tip if you have enough soul gems or sigil stones instead of wearing a robe that takes up 4 pieces of clothing you should just get regular clothing like a shirt pants gauntlets and boots or shoes then you can have 4 times as many enchantments

I preffere Heavy Armor, though I think it gets uglier the higher level.
I really like Iron armor, it looks more realistic, i think. Also Chainmal is wicked, but not as good, as i'm currently a knight :P

I really don't like that, they should just remove the Enchantments from the armor, or downgrade the armor, like if it is supposed to have the same quality as Daedric, make it have the quality of Ebony, or have it get worse as you get more Infamy.
