IA Armor List
The RATING column shows the base (unmodified by skill) armor value of the Torso/
Chest piece of the set, or the armor value of the piece itself in the case of no
n set items like Shields or Hoods. This column is left blank for Clothing items
with no armor value.
The Wt column shows H for Heavy Armors, L for Light Armors, U for Clothing items
with no armor value.
The Crafting column shows the Smithing perk (or perks) required to craft the set
or item.
Arcane+Daedric+Dragon+* for example, means the set requires the Arcane Blacksmit
h perk AND the Daedric Smithing perk AND the Dragon Armor perk before the set ca
n be crafted AND the * means there is a special note about the crafting which is
detailed at the bottom of the list.
Advanced(or Orcish) for example, means the set requires either the Advanced Armo
rs perk OR the Orcish Smithing perk for crafting. This allows the item to be cra
fted by Smiths who specialise in only one side of the Smithing skill tree.
Some items may be available to craft before the rest of a set where this would b
e appropriate. The Eyepatch, Gold Earrings & Redguard Knight Cape for example.
MATCHING SET perks: Some Armor sets do not have headgear as part of the set. You
can make up a matching set for any of them with a Bandana or Fur Hood, or an Ar
mored Fur Hood or Mantle for Heavy sets, or a Padded Fur Hood or Mantle for Ligh
t sets, or with the Mantle of the Silver Hand. The exception to this rule is the
Daedric Lord Armor set which cannot match with them because that would be inapp
ropriate and contrary to Immersion.
