Eh? SRSLY? That's pretty funny actually. I didn't even notice. I usually skip the armors that I don't tend to like the look of. Which means I skip everything but the low level armors, blades armor, and then jump straight to ebony :P

item 151 on today's glitch list.

We've got all the problems or a major theme park AND a major zoo and the computers aren't even on their feet yet.

Dwemer : Orcish
Weapon > Weapon
Armor < Armor

It's messed up.

Orcish is better than Dwemer. Dwemer has 34 base, Orcish has 40 base.

Edit: Hmm, UESP and the official list different numbers. I heard something about improvements scaling differently, but doubt that's it. I'll have to double check at home. Official wiki could be using the +25% bonus numbers.

Dwemer is also a hell of a lot heavier, too.

Orcish armour is better and lighter (if you ignore the shield which is heavier and uglier), the weapons however svck, which would be fine if there was a good reason for it (as in only an orc can make good weapons or a quest/perk/whatever) but there isnt.

So it is a tad confusing.
