Summary
Fans of the action RPGThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrimhave been debating online on what armor in the video game they think is the best. There are manyarmor sets available inSkyrim, each with unique looks that cater to the preferences of every player.

The company seems to be very focused on the release ofStarfield, its upcoming sci-fi action RPG that is due to be launched September 2023. Nevertheless, theElder Scrollscommunity does not seem to be that bothered by the lack of updates.Skyrimstill has a lot of content to offer, and the player base seems content to discover new things about the action RPG, whether it is through their playthroughs or via discussions with other fans online.

On Reddit, user MeepMeepMeepMeepMep has opened up the discussion on what their fellowSkyrimplayers think is the best armor set in the game. The original poster starts off the discussion by stating their favorite, which is theNightingale set from the Thieves Guild inner circle, due to its visually-pleasing aesthetic. As of writing, the Reddit thread already has 334 comments of players eager to debate which armor they consider the best. Many agree with the creator of the thread, sharing the same fondness for the Nightingale armor as well, but there are plenty of fans who enjoy wearing other sets as well.
Some of the other gear mentioned include the Dawnguard Heavy armor, Nordic Carved Armor, or Ebony armor, while others like to smith sets such as the Glass armor or Daedric armor. Some also seem to prefer to put cloth-based gear such as the Archmage’s Robes on their Dragonborn. One even mentioned a unique pair of Ragged Trousers that can only be looted from a particularSkyrimenemy. Despite the difference in opinions, the thread exudes mostly positive vibes in the discussion.
Given the number ofSkyrimarmor sets and piecesavailable, it is probably difficult for the player base to choose which one is really the best overall. Every player has their own preference, whether it is for the boost in stats or how cool it looks in-game. Hopefully fans will remain respectful of each other’s choices, and continue to be open to other opinions.
Skyrimis available now for Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and some legacy consoles.
