Ebony Armor is freekin awesome, with the closed helm and tower shield with the uber enchantment value, only problem is no gauntlets

The coolest armor is the dark brotherhood ninja looking armor. Unfortunately, I've since replaced it with the stronger glass armor which I don't like nearly as much except that the spiked helmet seems to fit exactly over my wood elf's spiked hair. :D

My vote goes to glass. Light, strong, and ever so stylish, almost rakish. Ebony is blah, boring and heavy. I like to add Saviors Hide, Boots of Blinding Speed or Boots of Apostle. Besides, I don't expect to take many physical hits and want the magicka protection. Lots of nice helms but Helm of Oreyn Bearclaw (or whatever they really call it) is just smokin'. Assassin armor is very cool but glass is classier and better. Only medium armor I like is Ebony Mail or the enchanted CE dreugh armor from the Illuminated Order mod. For heavy, the CE greaves from Ilinibi, again the helm of Oreyn BClaw, and daedric if I had to wear something that cumbersome. If heavy then the Dragonbone curaiss is a must but Ebony Mail (medium) and Saviors Hide (light) are much better overall.

Right now I have a glass cuirass, shield and pauldrons combined with dark brotherhood greaves, gloves and boots. I'm not really into wearing helmets, so I only carry one in case I need the extra protection :D

The kit looks pretty cool with the glass poison sword I just found
:cool:

I am a fan of the full deadric armour, with the deadric face of God as the helm. But its really heavy, personally when my character gets above a certain level i like swanning around in no armour or just he cuiress of the saviors hide - just to prove how hard i am.

Now that i have done tribunal i like the magic laden Hand of Amalexia armour.

by far the coolest armour is the "her hands" armour (mournhold), like the ordinators armour, but slightly more fearsome and cool,

unfortunately im not heavy armour class, and it weighs ****loads as well, so I use the dark brotherhood armour, which looks cool and, although isnt as strong as glass armour, doesnt ned to be for me as i have enchanted mine with levitation, meaning I can escape quite easily. it also weighs a lot less than other armours

i just wear the ebony mail now, and a telvanni cephalopod helm for its enchantment capability
pretty much have all the legendary armour, just i prefer to carry around almost nothing.

Im wearing ebony right now with daedric gaunts. My fav piece of armor is my lords mail. Its heavy but I have a 310 armor rating on it so its good.

dark brotherhood armour rocks, although it is a little too plain and, well, dark. anyway, I have a sense of nostalgia for the full bonemold togs. especially that helmet.

Hmm, nothing quite spells out oblivion for your foes like Ebony armour full enchanted to increase your strength. Its enchant capability is immense. Channel it all into strength and the armours weight means nothing not to mention you now hit like a titan and are more heavily armoured than Robocop.

best armour

When I started, I went for a full bonemold armour set (with the spiky pauldrons), because I thought the guards in Balmora looked cool in it. It's not the best armour, but I still think it looks good, and if I hit the tab button to get an outside view of my guy, his butt does not look big in it.....

the colour of the magicalness of enchanted things depends on what school of magic the magic effect is from. you wanna use spells from the same school to get them to match

Hey Fake. The colour of enchantment depends on what you enchanted the item with. All the Elemental colours are there plus extras. Enchant all your items with the same power and Eurika you have matching luggage. For that Ebony armour its not worth doing unless its all constant.

I like the look of the ordinators Armour and the defence on it is pretty high too but unfortunately there are places you just can't wear it LOL

personally i like the glass- light and strong- my vamps using glass everything except the cuirass and gloves which i replaced with saviors hide with the fists of randagalf which gives a fairly nice armour rating and 20+str and 20+agility. :D

The coolest armor by far is the Royal Guard armor. The red armor.
That helmet and the side paltrons (I don`t know how to spell it, but it is the thing that is on your shoulders).....Both of them looks like it has been possesed by the devil...awsome armor if you ask me...
