I worked so hard ..and paid untold thousands of Septims just to get my character to the point where they could create Ebony armor.Then some no name dupe,whom only has the indignity of a racial indentifier runs up on me and has the same armor?!?

It's like Oblivion all over again.I could have held off on working the smithing skills and waited till level 30..what? at level 40 some no name jerk is going to come at me with Daedric weapons

Either make rare armors,and arms,quest related or so rare that people complain that they can't find them..not that generic encounter 105 kills all the time and effort you have put into the game so far.

But you can improve your ebony armor, the NPCs cannot.

On my level 48 character I've only come across one NPC who wore some Ebony armor.

It was a random encounter "Redguard" who was apparently tired of living.

I've only found Ebony armor very sparingly so far. I'm level 46. Once in awhile I'll find a piece in a boss chest or on a boss, but never on normal enemies or in regular encounters.

Combining my two characters(level 50 and level 52) I have only meet 3/4 NPCs with highend armor, with 2 of them being non-hostile "Mercenaries" and maybe 7 or so pieces as loot. No I do not believe the level scaling is horrible i this game, I actually think they are closing in to perfection.

Everyone compares those things with oblivion.
BUT if I dont remember BAD....
In morrowind, when you face daedra lords, in the first levels they will use Dwemer weaponry
in the mids 20 they will use Ebony weaponry
and in the lates 30 ... Daedric weaponry. all of them!
So It is the same think.
In obluvion EVERY BANDIT got a cmplete set of daedric glass or elven... you cant compare.
