Indoril Armor

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 4:26 am

So I figured since the main character is supposed to be the reincarnation of Nerevar Indoril, the most fitting armor would be some Indoril armor. I killed an ordianator, took the armor, payed my fine, and all was good. I had heard wearing the helmet or cuirass in vivec will cause the ordinators to attack. Apperently that only happens if I engage them in conversation. So it all seems good so far but I had a few questions.

1. Any greaves? The ordinator didn't have them so I figure they might not exist. Using Orcish greaves right now, and that doesn't look too bad. Would any body either tell me the ideal greaves to wear with it, or tell me (if they exist) how to obtain indoril greaves?

2. Is that the best medium armor available? It had a better rating than my mixed collection of orcish, dreugh, and bonemold armor.

3. If I enchant the helmet and cuirass and give them a new name, would that waive the ordiantors response to me? I plan on naming the pieces "Nerevarine Cuirass", "Nerevarine Helmet", "Neravarine Boots", etc... (Including naming the greaves nerevarine greaves even if it isn't indoril.) After the enchantment is applied and the name changed, can I speak to ordinators wearing it without them trying to kill me?

4. Just to be sure, no special medium set of armor coming up during the main quest that would fit even better with being the Nerevarine.

There are no Indoril greaves. Orcish is a fair substitute.

Indoril is the best medium armor in the basic game. In the expansions, the Adamantium helm, Royal Guard armor, and Ice (Stalhrim) armor are better.

I believe enchanting creates a different item that does not carry the script of the original item, so enchanting your Indoril helm and cuirass should keep the Ordinators from getting on your case.

The Ebony Mail cuirass, which is the reward for the last Temple quest, is the single most powerful item of armor in the game. If you are playing that the Nerevarine has reconciled with the Temple, then it is suitable wear for the Temple's champion.

Yeah Dogsbody is right, just enchant those pieces thereby altering their identification as Ordinator Armor.

Added retrospectively for completion.

Walking around Vivec with either the helm or the cuirass (or both) equipped will not cause the ordinators to attack you. You will only get attacked if you talk to one of them, and it has to be a 'generic' one - those just called "Ordinator", the ones in uniform but have a proper name will not attack you if you speak to them.

Enchanting either the helmet or the cuirass does not remove the script, enchant one then talk to an "Ordinator" and you will get attacked.
