The best armour is deadric, as long as you have it bound. As it weighs nothing, but still gives the full defence rating. But most people at this point would say "wait a min, it only lasts 60 odd seconds because its a spell" well I say WRONG. There is a glitch where you can get bound deadric armour to last FOREVER.

Hope this helps

is this patch 1.2.0416 or orignal game or xbox

Not sure what you meen, but if you go on the game. Cast the spell in anyway (magic or scroll) and damage it in anyway shape or form, repair it, and drop it. All this must be done before the timer runs out. Then you pick up the armour or weapon after the timer has ran out you can pick it up.

well "most" of the glitches were hammered out with the new patch im asking what version your using

Ahhh I get you now. Im using the latest version

The best armor depends on your play style.

Huge warrior with a big weight cap and who loves to get in the thick of fights up close and personal? Daedric would be the choice. Best protection rating of any armor.

Or are you a steathly assassin who uses the bow more than the sword? Glass is the way to go. Light, agile, and allows you to move fast, yet provides enough protection you need to keep you kickin'.

So basically, best armor is daedric for fighters and glass for stealth.

And if you into fashion in the game, I suppose you'd want Imperial Dragon?

Very true. But i have used the glitch and most of it is light. The only heavy piece of it is the greaves if I remember right. Im a mage type character that is also very sneaky and this armour has saved my skin so many times

I excluded all glitches and meant it as a general statement.
