All the Armor Types : V - Skyrim

» Tue Aug 30, 2011 1:45 am

No... did you read the Q&A?

I did and I swear I only saw weapons. Especially since the first hands on with all the journalists one of them upgraded their armor. Then again it's been a while since I've read those.

Nevermind.

Applying upgrades, as in smithing weapons and armor to be improved will not change the appearance. Enchanting them will make them glow but you’re not looking at customization of appearance."

Not crying kid. I'm sorry if English is your second language, just trying to help you out since you have such a half-@#$ed list.

Wow, you're really in need of a life if all you can do is complain about how threads are not on par with your expectations. I don't spend time proof reading everything I write just to make you happy. Don't like it, leave.

Why would Ebony be stronger than Daedric? It's never been in any of the other games. Also, I would like to point out that Daedric Armor and Weapons is made from Ebony, with a Daedra bound to the object.

I didn't see that Ebony was above Daedric. If it was the other way around, that would seem likely.

I don't really care enough to erase that though since it may still be a possibility.

I have no life, yet you're getting angry and insulting on the internet. Intentionally being comedic here? I'm not complaining, I'm critiquing, there is a difference. I'll hand it to you though, your english isn't too bad for a non-native speaker, but you need a firmer grasp before you try and insult people effectively.

It might be something different in the crafting menu.

IE

Iron Armor upgrades to Iron Armor+ costing less mats than making the next tier set of Iron Plate, or something to that extent.

I'm sure there are more, those are only the ones you unlock with perks. For one, you have to start off with the ability to smith some armor types, or else how will you increase the skill. For another, there are faction armors, quest specific armors, et cetera.

I like your thinking. :goodjob:

well, I believe it was gamespot that talked about a 6 stage crafting system. though I hope this isn't what they're referring to
if it is, then what about all this?

and another suit of armor that I've yet to see anyone point out-though if you have pointed it out before, credit's yours

http://spong.com/asset/345715/11/24519/list his armor has shoulder pauldrons, plus an extra piece on the front that doesn't appear to have any purpose other than enhancement/decoration. also, his gauntlets appear to be regular steel/iron gauntlets, because a number of our race preview shots have the same ones

Why are people still asking this? We squashed that beef on the character screenshots thread. There shouldn't be any doubt now that there IS armor customization in Skyrim.

When the Quakecon demo started, every player was given the same set of equipment to wear:

Some journalists looted for different armor. Others upgraded their's through smithing:

It's not that hard to believe everyone.

No Stalhrim armor?

Does anyone else see the hypocrisy in this post? You come at me with this "not knowing English" [censored] when what I said doesn't have anything to do with one's grasp on a language. Then you say I need to form my insults better but yours didn't even make sense. Plus you lashed out at me first so GTFO with that.

Thank you for quoting this Arctorius! We were so sure! :cry:

actually, I suspect that the list is incomplete. we've already had confirmation of hide and leather armor, but they're not on the list of armor types you can craft.

My list? Nerd Trek's list? Yes, it's incomplete. That's why I made note of it with the "Don't forget we have armors such as Hide as well."

My thoughts exactly. I was sooo hyped for this. It redeemed everything bad about Skyrim in my eyes.

Please, both of you, let it go or we'll end up with a locked thread

Well I guess it depends on whether Ragamuffin wants to continue this or not. He seems to care more than I do.

No, it depends on whether or not you decide to respond.

ah well. to twitter!
acutally, someone else to twitter please. tweeting isn't my thing, and I don't think I tweeted Pete right last time I tried :shakehead:

Oh, I've already responded. Now it's his turn.

You act as if I failed to acknowledge them.

Don't forget we have armors such as Hide as well.

» Tue Aug 30, 2011 12:45 am

I'm saying it would be wiser not to respond, so that this thread can stay open (which I would like, as this is an interesting topic).

» Mon Aug 29, 2011 6:57 pm

This is kind of a big letdown. I'm still getting the game but darn it all I really wanted to be able to customize armor.

It seems he's done the respectful thing and left so I doubt there will be any need. And thanks, I find it interesting as well even though others apparently do not.

ah well. to twitter!

I'd appreciate this since I don't have a Twitter either.

can any1 provide a link to what dragon armor looks like. thnx.

» Mon Aug 29, 2011 7:08 pm

Steel
Dwarven
Elven
Orcish
Scaled
Plate
Glass
Daedric
Ebony
Dragon

So is Glass the strongest light armor because I'm thinking of again only using light armor but dragon armor seems really cool. B)

I don't know if this is all armors.
They said they have a greater varity of armors but there is less here than in Morrowind.
