I think daedric is the one with the highest armor rate. They are very rare, though. There exist only two complete sets in the entire game. One if you don't have both add ons installed.

Don't know about the lords mail. Never had it. But the gauntlets "Randagulf's Fists" (or something like that) actually offer better defense, plus give you 20 points fortify strength and agility. I mostly wear them when I'm not walking around with both Wraithguards.

Lord's Mail? That stuff stinks! Go get the Dragonbone Curias! Much better. And it has a resist fire 100%!

How much armor rating does dragonbone curias give? I wear deadric stalrhem and lords mail for armor and lords mail has 90 armor rating. (I know starlhem armor isn't the best I just wear it cuz I havn't got full deadric yet)

Daedric

Daedric is the best of all armours in my book.

220 AR, ha! When I wear my full set of daedric armor with heavy armor skill boosted beyond 100, I have an AR of about 360.

When your AR is that high it doesn't really matter if your AR is 220 or 360,
ur both gods.

Indeed, dragon bone cuirass is the way to go if you're looking for pure defence. In fact, Ebonheart is the place to go if you're looking for any of the great cuirasses (aesthetic included).

There's a set of dwemer, imperial dragon, Lord's mail, iron alternate (the kind with fur on the back, which in my opinion looks very cool for an imperial take on gladiator-esque general armor) Dragonbone cuirass to the south west, and even a few others conveniently placed in the city.

One stop shopping I say. And if you're looking to get to Mournhold, a whole 'nother world is just a few utterances away. :P

Nobody talks about the Ebony Mail, but I can't see any armor topping it. It has 333 rating, plus 50 shield, 75% fire resistance, and 20% resist magicka. It's lighter than Dragonbone or Lord's Mail, has better enchantments, and offers more protection because of the shield effect. Perhaps nobody else is keeping it real with medium armor like me.
