Dwemer Motif?

Saavuj

Was this a sneaky reveal of a Dwemer motif in the dye preview?

I hope so

Wonder what light and medium will look like.
Also, how much will it sell for?

I hope so! After doing the arena questline in Reaper's march i wanted to see a dwemer motif in the game!

It's Dunmer Medium Armor, so no, it's not Dwemer, although i would like to see a motif like that in the future.

Regarding such coincidence, i read in the Dunmer Motif Lorebook that the they may have had Dwemeri inspiration for their armors but some believe they made these from the ground up :P

Gosh darn, that gotta be some of the ugliest I've ever seen in any game :-/

Doesn't look like dunmer. Just looked through eso-fashion, didn't see anything that really matched it. Given, it's late and it's been a long day, but I didn't see anything like it there.

No that is dark elf.. heavy armor recolored to look like Iron man.

I doubt we'll see a motif for Dwemer.

For the simple reason that they arent known for making Light / Medium armor.

The only Dwemer armor I've ever found in TES is Heavy almost mechanical/Gundam style block armor. I couldnt even begin to imagine what Dwemer cloth would look like. Has this ever even existed in an previous TES game?

Saavuj

Check the blade-like shoulders. That's not Dunmer. Double checked in game too. Definitely not any type of dunmer. Prove me wrong. I really don't want to hunt down another rare motif

Malpherian

The blade like shoulders are Dunmer Medium armor, the face plate is also Dunmer. I know because my night blade was wearing them.

Its not full Dunner though it's mismatched form 2 or 3 races, but the helm and shoulders are definitely Dunmer. Actually.. they might be Ancient elf not dunmer. But I know I;ve made them before. (Im an OCD crafter and I make at least every single set once to see what it looks like).

Saavuj

Nope. Not dunmer.

Didn't see any crafted shoulders on there anything similar to the bladed look shown in the dye preview.

Dunmer? You're ***, but ok. Here, see for yourself. You just don't know how to lie.

Considering all armour styles in this game is available in all three varieties, I think it is pretty certain this too will. It isn't the first time we see this discrepancy either - same with e.g. the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood armours shown off in a preview some time ago, which also came in light - medium - heavy varieties, despite only ever having been "light" (aka "medium" in ESO) in the single-player games... Even though it'd be kinda counterproductive to wear heavy armour as a thief/assassin...

Teiji

As many have said already - the Dwemer Motif and Ancient Orc Motif's are something we can expect to see in the game, albeit soon™.

The only thing we need now is /danceDwemer in heavy Dwemer armor where you dance like one of those centurion constructs, the dwemer automatons, whatever they're called.

For the love of the elegance that is Boethiah, I trust you're not being serious attempting to mislead by saying that Dwemer armor is Dunmer armor. They're both elves / mer, but is that really any reason to mislead others? If this is an attempt to increase the value of the Dunmer motif, then I'll edit my post so you can have your fun.

yes the person is lying.Good thing you were here to call them on it.
It couldn't possibly just be that they were wrong and we should not be *** about it amirite?

MythikDark

LMAO!!!! This is not Dunmer!!! This the Dwemer armor, do your research before you start flaming the OP.

Dwemer armor styles (light, medium and heavy) have been in the game since launch, just not for players, only NPCs. There's a dungeon in the Alik'r where most of the enemies wear Dwemer style armor, for example.

It has not, but nor has the ability to make items based on racial motif. Armor was really only ever referred to by the material it consisted of. (can't speak prior to morrowind however)

The Dwemer were a race like any other and would have had armies consisting much like any normal army with Infantry, Archers, Mages... etc.

And lastly, look at the launcher, title screen , promotional art... the left border of this forum; that rogue archer character? That's medium Dwemer armor.
-Thin plates not up to direct blows
-Geometric patterns and parallel lines
-bronze/copper-like coloration

If that's not dwemer, I'm a 6' tall sentient banana.

The mage you fight in cave before going through wooden doors in Darkshade Caverns (reg version, not vet version) is wearing what looks like light dwemer.
