Where to find new armor?!

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 12:58 pm

I have recently gotten level 10, and look forward to finally getting my Orcish and Mithril armor. But the problem is, where can I find these armors? Stores don't sell them, and I can't find them on any person that isn't Quest-related. Help?

Many armor hunters prefer to do their shopping at Rockmilk Cave. It is full of bandits and marauders so always stocks a nice assortment. Like other dungeons, it will repawn its stock every three days.

If you want spoilers on where it is and such, look here: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Rockmilk_Cave

Also, if you are looking for specifically heavy or light, you can go to UESP wiki and search for 'marauder dungeons' or 'bandit dungeons'.

Happy hunting. :foodndrink:

Mithril can be found really quite easily in many bandit caves at your level. Personally I would advise you to try out Dnznot Cave, near the IC Waterfront, it is very close to the Waterfront's house and yields good loot.

Orcish is more of a marauder armour as it is of the heavy type. I would reccomend either Fort Blueblood (Leyawiin's Reccomendation Fort) for Orcish because it has many Marauders or I would also reccommend Fort Strand just outside Anvil, and is the site for the quest from 'Whitmond Farm'

You won't find these armours in stores nearly ever, because even if you are a high level they still sell basic weaponry. You might find the odd Elvish or Dwarven weapons/armour in a store, but thats still rare, even at level 20+.

Hope this helped.

Umm... actually, Abandoned Mine might have enchanted swords and might not. Loot's basically random - you might find a nice enchanted weapon and you might find 17 Septims and a flawed topaz. Plus, it'll never have Orcish armor - it's a bandit dungeon, and bandits don't wear heavy armor. AND it'll only have mithril armor if the player's at least level 10, and then we're back to random lists - at least some of the bandits might be wearing it, but there's no telling if any actually will.

To the OP - for simple and convenient shopping for armor and weapons, I like Dzonot Cave (already mentioned) for light and Ft. Alessia - south of the Imperial City, near the long bridge over the Niben - for heavy. Ft. Nikel, just to your left at the beginning of the road from the IC to Chorrol, is another good place - it's one of the few dungeons that contain both bandits and marauders. And yeah - Rockmilk is the best - lots of both, so lots of selection.

Rockmilk cave, it has marauders and bandits so you can get new swords, blunts, heavy and light armors. The armor becomes more common if your a few levels above the requirements for it, like 12 instead of 10.
