MidbossVyers Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Pretty much what the title says. If you use heavy armor instead of light armor, what are your chances of surviving in the Thieves' Guild? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosisab Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 (edited) The same as a ninja wearing neon red armor being more stealth than all the others... :) (by Jiraya) make it low dexterity to boot and you'll have the clumsiest thief of all times.

ub3rman123 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 In the actual game, it's only your boot weight that factors into your sneak skill. You can wear full daedric sans boots and it'll be just as good. Only thing that it'll do otherwise is the weight of the armor holding you down (Less loot, slower walking).

Codithdipity Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 If you just take off your armor to sneak, all problems but loot would be eliminated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amayakyrol Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 It's tricky, but doable. Wearing heavy armor while trying to sneak around is not advisable though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ub3rman123 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 It's tricky, but doable. Wearing heavy armor while trying to sneak around is not advisable though. Remember, though. THe game only looks at your boots when you sneak. Doesn't matter what the rest of the armor is. If you go barefoot while you sneak it'll be just as good as if you were wearing full leather.

Relativelybest Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 In the actual game, it's only your boot weight that factors into your sneak skill.

Not if you are a Master of Heavy Armor (or, heck, even just Expert) in which case wearing the armor is actually the best way to not be bothered by it. So, yeah, just take your boots off. The rest is mostly up to your sneak and security skills, plus the usual chameleon/invisibility stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ub3rman123 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 It's really only game breaking if you can get it to persist for a long time. Most vanilla invisibility spells don't last more than 60 seconds. Now, chameleon, if you can get 100% with that, you don't even have to sneak.
