Can you have Permanent Bound Armor on the 360?

If so, how?

ya its possible and very easy, i have the PS3 version of the but im sure its the same for 360

Ok: first cast the bound spell to have the armor then get it damaged and then u must have a repair hammer and repair the bound armor...now u r able to unequip the bound armor and drop it.

Note: Do not pick up the armor until the Bound spell has worn off.

happy hunting

Verified, I have it on Xbox 360 and I have made several Permanent Enchanted armor to protect some wandering NPCs.

EDIT: I have the Game Of The Year-edition with both KOTN and SI installed, and the latest patch from Xbox Live.

Pretty much what has been said, yes it is completely possible even with the SI and Kotn installed.

You summon the weapon or armour, get it damaged by any means (even your own summoned creatures) then you repair the item back to full health and drop it. Stand there until the timer runs out and you have a nice weightless bound items, although the only good one is the Bound Sword as all others are lesser value than their non spell equals.

Also if you are an expert in Armourer, you can just repair the items beyond 100% then drop them instead of getting it damaged.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Edit: Okay, new question.
Does this trick work with the Bound Weapons?

yes it is, there is an (possibly) easier way to do it, depending on skill levels and spells known. if you summon any equipment, you can summon new equipment and it will force anything it replaces into your inventory and it can be dropped.

yep you can have permanent bound weapons 2 the same way and another good thing about using the bound weapons/armor is that its weight-less so u could have many copys of the armor or weapons and have different enchantments on all of them so u could equip the right ones for what eveer situation u come to

one thing to remember however:
curiass, shield , greaves = heavy armor
gauntlets, boots, helmet = light armor
(insert sadface where appropriate)

my heavy armor is 77
my light armor is 50

and yea u also gotta put that into consideration

what would your armor skills matter to kaelans bound armor ratings?

idk sorry

its alright, gave me a good laugh anyway.

It's okay, guys.

Actually, after I got to thinking about it, I got kinda depressed because I thought that all Bound armor was Heavy, but now I know that some is Light.
Im Happy, again.

and with the heavy parts, you will get to level up endurance faster.
but is daedric necessary? All armor is weightless at lv 100

True, but Im playing a Warlock that I just started last night and he's only Level 5, so having Bound armor that weights nothing, now will really help him in combat.
