Whats the best armour ?

Enchanting with feather would be good too in order to decrease how the armor effects your encumbrance. Your armor type also depends on what your character is good at. If he has high agility, go with light armor, if he has high endurance go with medium or heavy.

durr!!! Enchant a Daedric Curiass with Fortify Strength. Get 20 more strength max. Daedric Shield give you up to 50 more. There. Your armor is weightless

 

 

This is exactly what I did. I enchanted my daedric katana, greaves, helmet, right pauldron, boots, and tower shield CE to fortify strength. The daedric tower shield allowed me to CE fortify strength 45 points all by itself. All totalled, on just the daedric armor that I have, my strength is 150. That makes my carrying capacity 850 or so. So when wearin my armor and carrying standard potions (healing and restore and whatnot) and lock picks, I still only walk around with half of my carrying capacity taken up. :D

nothing says you cant go with a mix either, and theres no penalty for how much you wear (except the weight of the armor itself....) so its not that big a deal.

 

My character from about *checks calender* 1 1/2 years ago (my second MW character...) consistently wore a mix of armor types, and made it pretty dang far into the game. You can always get the huge armor bonus of a daedric cuirass, and then deck yourself out in glass armor to compensate, or some other mix. This is especially true if you start picking up some REALLY good enchanted stuff, but dont want the full set...

 

the only downside to this is that your armor skills train slower (only by a little bit...) if you wear more then one type. But so what, you're gonna take the hits anyway, and whats a warrior going to do when he has maxed heavy armor skills, and finds a certain constant resist-magicka cuirass in LIGHT armor? i rest my case. For pure fighting, the only way to go is multiple armor types.

I tend to stick with light armour. Because I go with stealthy, agile, thief/fighter types. I use custom armour, mostly, so I dunno....

 

As mentioned, different armour works with different types. Enchanting armour with fortify strength and feather is good, but... well, I can't see a downside. I'm still sticking with light though. :P
