daedric

there are many daedric lords, and many different dremora clans. therefore we can logically assume there are different daedric armours

A unique set of each of multiple daedra, the connection to the daedra should be clear. Eastern styles just ARE dreadful with the faceplate masks, the weaponry and such, so borrowing from them isn't a bad thing. You should be like a tank after acquiring them, so questing for them should be worthwhile. Not as in: "OMFGZ I found a piece of daedric armour at the bottom of this dungeon! This is the most glorious day of my life, didn't expect that to happen to me...[after climbing up] and now everybody is sporting a full set of it... Oh, NICE."

I want daedric to be the BEST armor and extreamly rare so when you finally find one in 2039 you wont yell FFFUUU and go all :brokencomputer:
Also i dont want to search all dungeons to get one and they should not be leveled.
There should be one pro place where you can find 1 set per char

Yes to everything except that it shouldn't be rare. 1 set per person? That would completely ruin how rare the armor should be. A deadric armor set should be something you collect and slowly build up to show just how epic of a hero you really are

Saracen? Well, briefly put, High Medieval muslim style, if that's what you're asking.

I do NOT want to see dark seducer OR golden saint armor no matter what, been there done that.

But the deadric armors should come in light and heavy variants, this would be epic.

I voted for all the three first deadric styles, although I have no idea how the first and third look like. But they should have different types of deadric armor :)

but they looked so COOL. if they were seperated rather than being an entire suit it would be awsome. (also, it failed when the tiny metal bra became a giant gut guard when mails equiped the armour, but otherwise the armours looked awsome, particularly the shoulders)

I think http://www.onesixthwarriors.com/forum/sixth-scale-action-figure-news-reviews-discussion/157930-saracen-warrior.html looks quite similar to the http://www.uesp.net/wiki/File:OB-item-Dwarven_Armor.jpg from Oblivion.

I'd like it to be quite difficult to find, be it there only exists as handfull (or less) full sets, or else it is dropped extrememly rarely by high level enemies. I'm thinking, kinda like the the madness and amber matricies in Shivering Isles. You might find one or two pieces, but you'll be going around forever missing bottos or something before you finally find them and then you will be like, "YESSSSSSS!"

Also, I'm sure we're going to see a lot of Akaviri (read: asian) influence in the achitechture, armor and weaponry of skyrim, so i think it would be cool to see some samaurai-esque daedric armor. I definitely loved me some Deadric katana and wakizashi back in Morrowind.

After checking the links, I see what you mean. More typical would be lamellar armour which was in use from Scandinavia to Japan. By the way, those baggy trousers were also worn by Byzantine and Swedish-Rus people. Look up some pics of other cultures and you'll see that the difference between muslim and christian or Asiatic clothing, weaponry & armour is more subtle than you'd think beforehand.

edit: Let them katanas come indeed!

I do like the look of that Lamellar armor. It would be cool to see it in a game, but it seems far to ... how to put this... footsoldier-ey to be expertly forged, daedric armor befitting the magical minions of gods.

As far as the Dwarven armor, I was looking mostly at the briastplate that appears to have rivited panels unique to the saracen style.

Edit: some pics... i like http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cb/Armorjap.jpg, it definitely fits with the akaviri style. But it still seems http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100601004520/deadliestwarrior/images/f/f3/Lamellar_armor.jpg to be daedric (might just be the dude wearing it in this case).

Make it so rare most people have to use online guides to get a set. But this time make the rarest parts the body or helm instead of the gloves.

It is the dude. These armours are real pieces of art each individually! And their wearers among the best melee fighters this world has ever seen. Samurai warriors are just so ee-eevil. Nothing is more evil than an ambushing army of samurai coming out of the mist, like they did in The Last Samurai.
About the Dwarven armor: I reckoned you meant the briastplate, because that was about the only thing that looked like it.

They still like like just a bunch of little chips of metal woven together with cord to me. reminds me of http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WlsG2UM0zN8/S8UYTH4OwnI/AAAAAAAAI0s/lwlHJWObzjk/s1600/Picture+029.jpg actually, and that's not a good thing.

also, with the dwarven armor, i remember it having baggier amost MC Hammer type trousers under the greaves. Meh, wishfl thinking i suppose

Very rare, and I want it to look more like it did in Morrowind. I hated Oblivion's daedric armor (the look and how common it was), so I used ebony instead. When I had a character that wore heavy armor, anyway. Daedric armor should be scarce, look better, have a great armor rating, and be really heavy.

Best laugh of the day. And yes, that's basically what lamellar armour looks like. I wonder where you got that picture though. :tongue:
When forgetting about the "fail" dude, you've got to admit lamellar doesn't look too bad.

The poll about daedric armour that should be light is kinds fail, if you ask me. If my lore is correct, daedric weapons and armour is ebony armour, but imbedded with some kind of daedric spirit in the smithing process. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Still, their is a possiblity that it could be done with other materials. Glass armour made by daedra could be a good guess, as ebony and glass were mined from the mines on Vvardenfell.

As many different styles as possible, the sets should be very rare.

I preffered the way that Daedric looked in Oblivion, though I wouldn't say no to more variety.
I also think that it should be very rare; I don't want it to be levelled but instead kept only in very hard to reach places.
I'd also like it to be limited to just 10 sets per play through, I think 1 is just too few.
