I just got it, and how close can it get to the armor cap with 100 smithing?

Lol, not very. If you want to wear it and not get one shot, combine enchanting and smithing. Throw in a smithing potion as well.

Any armor can be good once you reach the cap of 567.

No, i know that but how far do i have to go to get it? Like what percent of a smithing potion?

The higest you can get any armor is a rating of 567. Seeing as all the Stormcloak armors are crumby light armor I'm not sure it can offer much protection. If you don't use alchemy try and get your hands of Enchanters Elixir and make some smithing gear. Then find some Blacksmiths Elixir to work with your smiting gear and upgrade your armor as much as possible. Or wait until 1.9 hits so you level up more and starting leveling alchemy and make some OP potions to force that light armor to 567.

One thing you must always remember is that Smithing and enchanting are the two most useful/powerful skill in the game. Always use them.

I dont really care if it's below the cap, just as long it's not too far away.

Try a Blacksmith's Elixir.

Aight dawwwg. I'm only level 10, but i was just seeing if this armor would ''work''

At higher levels you will care, believe me. Especially if you don't stick to one particular playstyle which makes you weaker than you could be.

Wow, you even be close to reaching the cap at that level.

This ^

You may not even need to get there if you play on the lower-end difficulties.

I know, i was just wondering about the future of my char.

I know the cap is important. Trust me. I have many lvl 50 and up characters.

OHH the way you were going at it i assumed you were somewhat new to the game.

1 should never expect any Stormcloak armor to be good... not in practicality nor in looks

(Empire FTW)



ok, ok just messing with ya

Lol, ya i know what you mean
