    I’ve been watching a lot of elder scrolls content recently and what I’ve noticed is that a lot of people mispronounce Chitin. Making the “Ch” a normal “ch” sound like “Choose”, when it should make a K sound like kite. Then the “in” part makes an “en” sound instead of an “in” sound. This isn’t the only word either, but the one I’ve been hearing mispronounced the most.

    A little confusing but there is an Elven armor called Light Elven armor that can't be crafted an is somehow different than the base, along with gilded which has a higher armor rating. Altogether with CC hunter armor there's 4 version of Elven.

  • @serwalkerofthekeynes8761

    I was highly excited for light dwarven.. but the legs and helmet were still to heavy looking.
    Thankfully leather scout totally revives the set.

    @thegunslinger9707 Před 2 lety +3

    I levelled up my restoration and light armor skills in a different way: at the end of the halted steam camp (bandit camp to the north-west of Whiterun) at the end of the tunnel there is an exit to skyrin that is actually just a small pit with spikes. Those spikes hit like a truck. My level 50 character with 330 health and 350-ish armor rating can barely survive 3 hits, so I don't recommend this low level: what you're going to do is hurt yourself manually with spikes. This is a great method on paper, but those spikes are very inconsistent. They face in different directions. Walking into them might not hurt you at all, but jumping, a slow vertical movement which you can't control that well might get 2 hits. Walking forward into a lot of spikes is a bad idea, because you can get stuck easily and impale yourself by accident. Running into a single spike and back would be the best solution (especially with novice/apprentice restoration spells), but I didn't find a proper angle where it's safe to do it. I did get a high restoration and light armor skill, but I died a few times in the process, so I recommend not being greedy and saving often.

    Amber armor/ weapons are stronger than glass armor you can get it from quest in the mine or from the kashiki? caravan granted it takes a lot to make everything but it's at least 20 to 25% stronger than glass armor that you can forge before unlocking dragon armor

    I'd say if you are going with light armor you'll also will want to use sneak and archery, you can't rely on tanking damage as with a heavy armor build.
    So yea, the whole point of wearing light armor is in case you get spotted and begin combat, you don't want to be in a disadvantage against heavy armor and that's why you want to avoid commencing an open combat against heavy armor users.

    Does anyone know the warmth values of the light orcish and the dwarven armor? if they are warm it is worth it to go with the "heavy" armor skill branch

    I dont get doing this in skyrim. If I wanna powerlevel ill just pretend I did this and use console, although just playing the game and geting xp normally is way more immersive anyways.
