Ruby armor. Really expensive but awesome looking. And dwarven mechanical self reloading crossbows that shoot flaming bolts.

awesome bro that awesome! id make a sword/ cross bow combination.. so after you stab theres a trigger to shoot the crossbow bolt straight through them along with different pressure adjustment since theirs are dwarven mechs with steam pressurization

I dont know about armor, but for gauntlets I would want ine hand to have an assassin creed type mechanical sword that comes out and the other hand to have a 3 shot self reloading crossbow.

It would be Stalhrim (hope you have the DB DLC) with an ebony ingot mixed in. I would add to that a destroy all imperials enchantment and then go on my merry way!

I'd make an armor out of cheese, just to appease the great Sheo. It would have cheese rolls everywhere and be a magnet for skeevers.

I'd make some simple mailshirts and hauberks, and maybe some integrated with leather scale armor. I'd definitely make some Viking and Anglo-Saxon style helms, swords, axes, and spears. Also, seaxes; those would look lovely in Skyrim. Also, more round Viking and AS-type shields, as well--and shortbows, too.

Iron and steel versions, for sure--maybe even glass and ebony, too, to really fit in with Tamrielic building materials.

Just came here to post this. There's a big lack of a simple and worn chainmail/fur set in Skyrim. Some of the mods have filled the gap, but the ones that I like the most are plate armour, which brings with it a bit more bulkiness than you would want with someone who travels across Tamriel.

Something like the Night's Watch armor from GoT, or the Llewellyn Set in Dark Souls 2. We're severly lacking on cool, dark, agile-type armors. And capes/cloaks. The closest you're gonna get is the Nightingale Armor, but it's Quest Locked, Already Enchanted, and I don't agree with the textures. A little to bright gray and... veiny.

^ Yeah, that would be perfect. That Armor + Nordic Weapons would be the six-bomb.

This, so much this. Why is it that the hair, beard and equipment in this concept art is leagues above what we see in game?

More pants.

I don't understand Nords' fascination with bare-legged man-skirts/kilts on most of their armor. At least they shave their legs first, I guess.

Alternatively, more mail armor. The light armors of the game displeased me. Something like the Chaimnail or Mithril sets of Oblivion. Hell, I'd like a simple, practical set of armor for both armor types (light and heavy) made of mail.

Sadly, that tends to be the case with a lot of concept art (most likely due to limitations). It's part of my love-hate relationship with it, since half of the time I'm exclaiming "Why wasn't this in the game/why wasn't it more like this in the game!?" Skyrim's hairstyles look better as concept art than they do in the game itself, for example. They look like filthy mullets compared to their concepts. (Also. dat spear...)

Yeah, definitely furs to wear with them, wolf skins and bear skins, etc. Would have gone very well, I think.

With the way smithing is in this game, I would have made a light and heavy version of each material type.

More elegant leather armours like the Nightingale Armour

Diamond armour would also be an interesting idea although might be OP.

I'd probably design something more in the medium armor range. Something consisting of more than leather strips, but less than metal plates. Good for sneaking and mobility, but also offering better protection in a toe to toe fight than the sneak specialist types of armor.

Heresy! Pants are the root of all evil. Everybody knows that. :nono:

I think more Mithril and chainmail armor's in the light and medium ranges. Also some almost T.G. looking armor in "woodsy" tones for Ranger/hunter type characters.

For weapons, some pole arms, spear's and true staff's....maybe with some blades on the end..... for some dang reason I am seeing the weapons from The Wizard of Oz.
