I do know that it fits the theme of Orcish armor being Mongolian, but ugh.(At least that's what I think it is?)

I think we can all agree the Oblivion armour design was pretty horrendous. At least the helmets.

Dawnguard heavy helmet is pretty cool, but yeah 9/10 armors I come across I think to myself "surely they could have done better than this".

[QUOTE=Pops;43563372]while i agree that the orcish helm is not what i wanted it to be, the rest of the armor set is fantastic. and ebony is best looking, we can all agree to that, right?[/QUOTE] The ebony helmet looks really dumb. Like it's too small for the rest of the set.

The iron helmet in Skyrim is pretty cool looking, then again it is part of the poster armour so they probably gave it special attention.

Every Helmet looks bad on Argonians.

[QUOTE=Pops;43563372]while i agree that the orcish helm is not what i wanted it to be, the rest of the armor set is fantastic. and ebony is best looking, we can all agree to that, right?[/QUOTE] The only problem I have with Ebony armor is the pauldrons, but that's a minor thing.

The only good looking armor in Oblivion was Iron Armor. [editline]16th January 2014[/editline] Speaking of armor in Oblivion. What the fuck happened to Mithril?

[QUOTE=Xenomoose;43561686]I think Umbra was a major part of those two elder scrolls books that I didn't actually read. Something happened there that made it so that Umbra doesn't return in Skyrim.[/QUOTE] Wasn't Umbra's soul consumed by the giant flying city?

omg spoilers i didnt finish the second book

[QUOTE=Sir_takeslot;43564484]The only good looking armor in Oblivion was Iron Armor. [editline]16th January 2014[/editline] Speaking of armor in Oblivion. What the fuck happened to Mithril?[/QUOTE] the same place mithril weapons went after daggerfall

[QUOTE=IrishBandit;43563659]Every Helmet looks bad on Argonians.[/QUOTE] Armor in general doesn't look good on Argonians shame

[QUOTE=woolio1;43564705]Wasn't Umbra's soul consumed by the giant flying city?[/QUOTE] That's not quite what happened to Umbra, but close enough. The novels are actually really good and I encourage everybody to read them

[QUOTE=Compent;43535776]I already raided the dark brotherhoods base and killed everyone inside. yeah[/QUOTE] That's the quest I'm on, but my MW graphics mod doesn't like the Steam Overlay or alt-tabbing, so every time I start playing 30 people decide they need to tell me something at once. Every time.

I do know that it fits the theme of Orcish armor being Mongolian, but ugh.(At least that's what I think it is?)[/QUOTE] I think the orcish helmet is the best helmet for both argonians and khajiits, since it keeps their head shape.

I've never seen it before.

[QUOTE=Pretty Obscure;43565006]That's not quite what happened to Umbra, but close enough. The novels are actually really good and I encourage everybody to read them[/QUOTE] Reading over the Lore page in the UESP wiki, I didn't realize Vivec hadn't actually [i]stopped[/i] the giant floating rock. He just sort of froze it... But it still had the momentum it had before it stopped. Sort of explains why the rock destroyed half the continent instead of just crushing the castle, like it would have if it had fallen from the lore height.

[QUOTE=fear me;43558680]I don't really get the point of enb's[/QUOTE] You need to separate the ENB series from the shitty configs people have. ENB right now even with no config is good to atleast run. It has a memory manager to cut Vram and system ram usage automatically. Along with that you can turn on almost free effects like AO and SSS. The new .245 file has amazing AO performance. I turn it on and don't notice a performance impact. I just make it a subtle effect, that and a very slight bloom. I'm using no current actual ENB Config right now. So the game just looks enhanced and not really changed in style.

[QUOTE=IrishBandit;43563659]Every Helmet looks bad on Argonians.[/QUOTE] Diadem of the savant Completes the 25% armor boost perk (regardless of light/heavy set) and doesn't look supremely terrible on beast races

[QUOTE=Altimor;43556946]What difficulty? If legendary, don't get hit. If anything else, sounds like a bug.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Elspin;43562236]300 damage doesn't sound abnormal at all if you're playing on master or legendary. I have upwards of 500 health, and capped armor and I [i]very rarely by unique npcs[/i] got one hit on master difficulty which is a scary amount of damage :v:[/QUOTE] Playing on Adept, I think. Level 35-ish, and playing through Dragonborn and generally running around Solstheim.

[QUOTE=biodude94566;43566798]Playing on Adept, I think. Level 35-ish, and playing through Dragonborn and generally running around Solstheim.[/QUOTE] On Adept difficulty? You shouldn't even be taking lethal damage from anything.

[QUOTE=doomkiwi;43567773]Mithril armor is a quest set in Oblivion for the fighter's guild I believe.[/QUOTE] No it's just leveled gear. I think he was referring to how it completely disappeared after oblivion.

Umbra's p. cool. It can cut realms of Oblivion and stuff. [editline]17th January 2014[/editline] Like people. And slave races. [editline]17th January 2014[/editline] Gonna miss it.
