Faust870 Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 I tried finding this through search, but couldn't find anything... So can anyone tell me what the best full set of medium armour is, and where I can find it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 What do you mean by 'best', Faust. Many of these things are no more than opinions because aesthetic appearance and armour rating do not necessarily coincide. Also there are unique items that have enchantments in excess of any one type of armour. Adamantium and Stalhrim armours are medium as are some Imperial pieces - others are heavy. The Ebony Mail is the strongest medium cuirass in the game. All the powerful shields are all heavy as are the fists of Randagulf. The most powerful boots, however are all light. In my view you are best off mixing and matching rather than looking for one type. You play on Xbox so I presume the Helm of Tohan is not available to you (an official plug-in). That is medium and has high enchantment points. I do vary what I wear at times but most recently I've has stalhrim greaves and pauldrons, the enchanted helm of Tohan (all medium), the fists, the Lord's Mail and Eleidon's Ward (all heavy) and the Paws of the Wolf-Runner (light). That doesn't really answer your question directly but it may give you ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camonna Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Well I think there are some artifacts of good medium armour but yes there are some imperial pieces that are medium armour. Indoril might be medium, its good armour but hard to get in a really low level. and not to mention that it looks stupid. If you are Playing Tribunal there isthe Royal Guard armour which looks really cool and has a high armour rating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Santyr Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 For medium armour a Dreugh cuirass is as strong as Indoril but you can't get a full set of Dreugh armour, Adamantium is good but that's a plug-in isn't it? XBox users wouldn't have it would they? Indoril is good but if you talk to an Ordinator he'll attack you just for wearing it. Even if you got it through legit means (Mission in Vivec). I haven't even travelled over to Solstheim yet so I wouldn't know about the new types ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camonna Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Adamantium is a Plugin for the original morrowind but on GOTY tribunal comes with it. I have it on Xbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcstreet Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 id have to say indoril armour is the best medium as far as ive found for medium armour but all the same i like to mix mine,im currently on about 525 days and ive changed my armouor so many times (i think about 14 times)just for change or to try to have my character looking the part for whatever quests im doing.now im using combinations of different stuff to suit me rather than the missions.

Faust870 Posted May 12, 2004 Author Share Posted May 12, 2004 Ok, let me expain what im trying to get... I am level 37, and i have 100 in Light armour, and i would like to level up my medium armour and then my heavy armor, and im looking for the medium armour (which i can find a full set of) I am looking more for amour rating then anything else... I am playing on XBox without the GOTY edition... so yes im missing out on a few things (if only my compuiter could run something good ( i need a new processor) then i would get it for PC) I dont think I will go indoral (or whatever the ordinators wear)... Because when you talk to an ordinator, they tend to get mad at you and want to kill you :( damn ordinators... For light armour i used full glass except for the Cuirass, for that, i used Saviors Hide... A little OT: Also, for light armour i used Short blade, and now that im leveling medium, im going for... Long blade, whats the best (attack damage wise) long blade weapon (I dont care if its 2handed, or 1 handed) Currently im using one of my many Dai Katans (Daedric) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marxist ßastard Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Levelling up in Medium Armor isn't worth it, unless you're doing it for the Endurance bonus (in that case, it'd be better to just sack a small town and head over to Khargol gro-Boguk in a tower near Dagon Fel to train up to an acceptable level). Save yourself the trouble and go straight to Heavy Armor. A good Long Sword can be found in Abanabi, a little cavern just Southwest of Sadrith Mora. If you haven't yet become a vampire or lost a sword called Goldbrand, it could be worth it to go for Eltonbrand (do a search if you're interested). Of course, if you don't want to do much running around, Umbra can suit your needs quite well. ...And just what processor and motherboard do you have there? With about $US40 and a bit of luck, you could get an Athlon XP 3200+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkh Templar Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 IMO, one of the best medium armors I encountered was the Nordic Mail armor from bloodmoon. I took it from the dead guard in the Main Hall, after the werewolf attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marxist ßastard Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Nordic Mail is Heavy -- the weight class was changed in a patch. I think that GOTY has that patch included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
