Daedric, all the way. Royal Guard and Adamantium tie for 2nd.

I like Royal Guard. It's very strong, and looks great as well.

I prefer modded creations mainly from Metal Queen Boutique and Qarl's Gothic Attire for my two Black Widow characters. For my male custom Assassin, he is rather plain in his Dark Brotherhood Armor (sans helm which sits in his home) that he took as a trophy. My first character (who has long been retired), a female Battlemage (custom), had a lovely addiction to Daedric. :)

Bosmer Skin Armor.






Why are you looking at me that way? What else could I have done with Fargoth?

What else could I have done with Fargoth?
At the moment, soup is enjoying a vogue.

My Dark Elf Assassin is currently wearing the Devil Hunter Longcoat and Pants from Heaven's Lookout, with the Dark Hunter gauntlets and boots from Carnithus' Armamentarium. Unfortuately, he has to oil himself into.

My Nord Crusader is wearing the Demon Bone armour from Carnithus' Armamentarium. However, most of the Nord ladies seem to get tired of the line "do I have something in my teeth?".

For Bethesda stock armour, I usually use Nordic Mail or Royal Guard, anything else just chafes.

I love glass, and probably steel next. Iron comes in close as third.

Glass Armour is awesome, mainly because of the spiky helmet.

I'm flippant, but if their was a woad and kilts pack, I'd wear it. Otherwise, Nordic style all the way, even though I'm a dark elf. :?

If it weren't for that horribly mishapen mess of a helmet, then the Nordic mail that the Skaal wear (been too long since I played to remember!) would be my favourite.

I like my out fit on the x-box version. Half ebony half daedric. The daedric was enchanted. I also wore pants a shirt and a robe from that really expensive clothes thingy (extravagant or excuisit. I can never remember.)which were all enchanted too. I looked so ridiculous...

My favorite ingame armor is Glass & I especially like the Amythest Armor mod - which turns it dark purple. I also like the Blue Glass mod.

My favorite of my own custom-made Armors is called ShadowShell Armor. It is Chitin Armor turned a textured Black-to-Grey that cameoflauges into the caves & shadows of Tamriel. It comes with a matching shortsword.

I've found the best balance between light weight, strength and durability in the green glass armour. Once my character reached a relatively high level, I found I could beat anything in combat using glass armour for protection. Anything stronger was overkill and heavier. All I need for weaponry is a good bow, arrows, and a one-handed daedric sword that I enchanted with destructive firebolts, cast on touch. Typically I use the bow when out in the open, and the sword in interiors. Keeping it light allows me to travel faster, and carry a lot more loot before I have to stash or sell it.

My favorite armors would be the Dragonbone cuirass, the Armor of Savior's Hide cuirass, the Ebony Mail cuirass and the Lord's mail.

But that's because I like artifacts. I want to collect as many of them as possible.

For complete sets, I would choose Snow wolf armor.

I think the glass armor looks really good, especially the helmet and the axe.

Without a doubt the finest armor in the game, and you have to join the Tribunal Temple to get it and it's medium armor to boot!

My favorite armor is definitely the Telvanni Bonemold.
