Hey my Dark-Elf is using Light-armour, Do you know where to get some better than Chitten at the start of the game????

are you good at either lockpick or sneak?
in that case you can [SPOILER]travel to AldRuhn(sp?) and visit the fighters guild. Down the stairs is a guy that you can pickpocket a key from. The key goes to a room not far from him.Inside there is some glassarmor,helm, cuirass and greaves I think.Glassarmor is the best lightarmor in the game(exept from some artifacts). Anyway you can just lockpick into the room but I think it's locked with an 80 level lock. The box for the gear is also locked but if you got the key it opens that too.[/SPOILER]
Hope you understood if not I'll try again.:cheeky:

Lets see....
Most of the armor you will find consists of chitin and various netch leather, though you can get imperial studded leather in many shops. If your character is female, you can use Domina armor, which is pretty good (Requires LeFemm official plugin). For better armor, you will need to do some stealing.
[SPOILER] At the Ghostgate, there is a vendor that sells a full set of glass armor, easily some of the best armor in the game, which is really too damn expensive to try to buy, so I suggest stealing (hopefully, your sneak skill is high or you have some chameleon spells). You can also try hunting Golden Saints, as they have glass weapons, and sometimes the occasional Glass shield. A glass tower shield is quite worth it.
The best piece of light armor I've found so far is the Cuirass of the Savior's Hide, the one with a constant effect 50% magicka resistance that's in the top of the tower at Tel Fyr. It also has a really high armor rating as well (Much higher than glass). You can find it in the closet with the level 100 lock, and I've never thought of looking for a key to get in. Be ready with some picks or spells. [/SPOILER]
I still think that most of the glass armor looks like crap though. Seems like some sort of borg from startrek than a fantasy set of armor.
[edit] I'll be nice and throw some spoiler tags.

you can steal steal if you get some help from magic/enchantments. If you happen to find something enchanted with invisibility 5 sec (or so) then your set to steal from a shop. These enchantmented stuff can be found looting smuggler cave and such.
Also my birthsign is the shadow and it gives me a power( instead of spell it takes no skills to permorm) of insvisibility for 60 sec.

I'm only lv4 so Is'nt it going to get a bit dangerous around Ghost-gate (i thought that was really dangerous place).
I don't mind not getting the best armour in the game, I just need some armour thats easy to get and stronger than chitten! :(

also you could kill the guy with the key, but make sure he attacs you first. And he's a questgiver for the fightersguild so you should take that into consideration.

ghostgate itself isn't dangerous, cause it's just an outpost. But if you go inside the ghostfence (the gates are at ghostgate) it will become dangerous
X-LEGACY on 11/4/2003 at 21:30
I've tried but it's really difficult..which guy is it in Ald-Ruhn fighters-guild??, and also how do you make good people hate you and want to kill you?, I've tried Taunting but they just ignore me!
sappe on 11/4/2003 at 21:42
I can't remember his name but he's right down the stairs. If your gonna taunt you need good speechcraft.
Another tip is to try and pickpocket him and fail, the crime will be reported and the entire guild attack you. Quickly kill the guy take the key and go steal the armor. Then flee outside and turn yourself in to the guards. But before you do that, drop your armor on the ground (and everything else you might have stolen). The money you have to pay ahould be like 25 or so. Just make sure that he strikes first. :thumb:
