I don't generally dabble in Pickpocketing, but recently decided that it may be a wise investment of my time to give some townsfolk a bit of reliable gear. My problem is not with weapons, but the apparel; how do I go about getting NPCs to equip things such as upgraded armor, enchanted rings, etc.? I thought I read somewhere that it was entirely possible, but never looked further into it than that since, as I previously mentioned, I don't use Pickpocketing.
If someone would be so kind as to enlighten me on the ins and outs of the skill, I'd appreciate it.
