Just a simple question really. What armor style do you prefer or if you even have a preference. I personally like Xivkin for heavy armor and Redguard for medium armor.

    See the thing here is it depends on character.

    Broken Branch Toothmaul looooves the Mazzutun hat.

    Hisa Ni Caemaire would really really love to get her hands on the Moondancer robes.

    Margul gro Durga really likes the Trinimac Sheild

    Hexia Solaris really likes the lowish level Medium Redguard helm (the one that looks like a cowl) but at higher levels (and in general since the re-design) redguard stuff is horrid.

    Mol Gro Durga (Margul's older brother) really likes the Daedric Swords.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.

    If the armours looked like they looked on the crown store graphic, there would be many to choose from. However, in-game they all basically look the same. Glass and a couple of others i can tell apart, but once people dye them all black/white or black/silver no armours really stick out from the next one.

    On big hunky guys (yes, orcs are basically eye-candy for me) I like the Khajiit style because I LOVE oogling nice delts and shoulders and upper arms.

    I was away from the game for 6 months and when i returned, the motif pool has been swamped with more variety. So much so, I just gave up on attempting to get as many as i could and now just sticking to the tried and tested ones i had before.

    I'd like to get a look at the Akaviri motif.

    I rarely PvP, so it will be years before I get it, but I'm curious.

    Turns out the Soul Shriven swords actually look like katanas to me.

    I also really like the Ancient Elf light shoes - nicest boots in the darn game!

    the akaviri and merc armour-
    for swords the soul shriven and i like the jagged daedric daggers. they suit my orc and redguard- but on my nightblade- dark brotherhood, and all the assassins league stuff would be awesome- but damn- theyre expensive and those quests are not fun.. not fun being fined 3000 for a quest. where if they see u - u lose money- but if u murder them - there is no penalty?!?!

    Since costumes became dyeable armour style is no longer important to me..........

    I think I may be regressing 40+yrs but my girls change their clothes several times a day, bit like playing dress up with your dolls.

    Zenimax you sucked me in........ before costume dying I owned none, now I have several :(

    Edit:- Swords have to be Soul Shriven :)

    What are motifs? Are those the things I spent time and money and effort collecting as I was leveling before I realized that 90% of endgame gear is dropped sets that I can't use my motifs on and will never have a matching set unless I craft a purely cosmetic set to walk around town in?
    But hey, if you don't wanna look like a mis-matched nub still walking around in whatever gear dropped from their latest quest well... there's these costumes in the store for $$$...

    Seriously, people have been asking/begging for a recrafting/glamour/transmute appearance function for their gear for AGES, even stating they're willing to spend MONEY for it but... hey... the art team was busy, ya know? Check out those sick smooth animations of Pacrooti though, for the gambling crates no one asked for or wanted. -_-
