What Is Your Favorite Mw Armor?, looks not power Options

[treydog]

Glass- followed by chitin. Part of the joy of glass is the time spent assembling a full set without cheating- similar to Daedric and ebony.

[Dreamer]

The Indoril armour or the Royal Guards armour (from Tribunal) are my favourites lookswise.

[evil_ducky]

are you kidding me?? despite its bad helmet and suckiness stats-wise, dwarven looked totally awesome. That was one of the first armors i got and i wore it until i found a suit of glass becasue it was totally awesome

[Khajiit Overlord Rainer]

Well, for looks Rainer must say Her Hands Armour.

But for looks AND power, definately daedric.

[Ibis]

I voted for Glass Armor. It is just so beautiful, I'd wear it in real life if it were possible. I may be influenced by living in Winter Park, Florida where we have the largest collection of Louis Tiffany artworks. There is an entire green glass chapel at the Morse Museum here ... not just the altar and candlesticks, but the chandeliers, the doorway lintels, the cornerstones of the room ... it is absolutely astounding.

The glass armor is so much like emeralds. But I also have mods of red glass, violet glass, white glass, black glass, saphire glass ... I suppose that I collect it. Not a conscious choice, just something that happened because I like it so much.

I also like the Dwarven alot except for the chunky boots.

put dark brotherhood! but my #2 is Bonemold

Since the poll is going strictly by looks, I picked Orcish. It's got the greeness of glass, some purple (greaves), and some scary looking pieces (tower shield, helm) much like the daedric armor. And huge pauldrons are always stylish if you ask me.

I would go with Ebony for looks and power if that was the poll, just the gold and black and the sleek look of it works really well, Just that the helms for it aren't all the great.

BONEMOLD, WHO AGREES

METAL MALLEET ARE YOU AND I THE ONLEY ONES LOGGED ON?

I'm still a Dwemer nut. I just love the big bulky pieces it has. Add an Ebony helm, and I go all. ,,Uber Dwemer Centurion is back to avenge the lost race. Fear and suffer, mortals!"

But my absolute favourite armour piece looks-wise is the Lord's cuirass. Too bad it is unique and doesn't fit in the poll.

Also I_am_elf_hear_me_roar, it is common for only one or even zero persons to be logged on. And the caps aren't necessary. I've heard that it annoys some people so you might want to avoid it.

[The Metal Mallet]

For unique armor, I would say a good looking set would be the Ebony Mail, with the Helm of Oreyn Bearclaw, Fists of Rangagulf, I guess the Ten Pace Boots (Boots of the Apostle are pretty ugly with the purply ting to them), and I guess I would go with ebony greaves and pauldrons to complete it. Hopefully you have the strength to carry all of that

I thought that glass looked pretty cool too but if you wore glass armor in real life it would be bad...I mean if the sword didn't kill you then the glass breaking would cut you to pieces.

Lucky that Morrowind's Glass armor is made from Volcanic Glass gotten out of Red Mountain then, ay?

I can't believe I didn't vote in this by now.
Glass. Why ? People often talk and talk and then talk some more about joys of Ebony or Daedric armor, about how much protection these overly heavy pieces of armor offer... hello ? The best AR/Weight ratio of the game belongs to glass. The ONE and ONLY elite unit in the game [put in there just to annoy those Indoril rednecks and make them feel like they should - INFERIOR] utilises Glass. And finally, Glass armor pieces are much easier to obtain within the game, unlike Ebony or Daedric. So suck on that, Mr. Fyr !

edit: Of course, I am only taking original MW into concideration, without expansions and mods. That discards High Ordinator armor which is interesting but still too damn heavy for my taste (that, and pauldrons look hillarious )

I think the poll was based on what armour looks the best. But yours reasons for the simply the most efficient armour is certainly correct. The AR rating for glass is quite excellent, though I forget is Stalhrim was just as good... I'll have to see sometime.

Orcish all the way!

[ugmung]

glass for me. only because most of my characters are based on light armor and unarmored. i say its the strongest light armor and maybe the lightest?

[Bolzmania]

I like heavy armour. Daedric was my favourite before because it protects good... But now I prefer Ebony, I feel so evil when I wear Daedric - too evil.

Glass looks very pretty on a woman, don't you think? Shiny and neat...yummy!

[LadySaira]

Netch Leather is good. Why buy expensive shiny armour, when cheap simple leather is quieter and cheaper to fix, hmm?
