Multiple Armor Types

CodyFurlong

Is there any benefit to wearing more than one armor type?Like five heavy, one medium, and one light for example? Is any benefit you get from it worth not having the max armor you could have, if you took all seven heavy armor instead?

Endgame magicka dps builds often swap out the 9% regen and 6% cost reduction for the ~2% more damage from undaunted mettle. May also be worth trying on tanks.

Medium: You want to go all medium for the dps.
Light: 5 light, 1 heavy, and 1 medium is recommended for the highest dps
Heavy: This depends on what you want and your build, but running all 7 heavy is fine.

One of mine is basically a fairly standard stam dk dps but in heavy armour and wielding a great sword, it's close to fool proof with combat basically boiling down to find baddies then roll face on keyboard until everything's dead

Obviously going full 7-piece of something will give you more of that type's benefits. But there are some benefits of mixing it up, too. If you're in light or medium, a piece of heavy will make you a bit hardier. If you're heavy, a piece of medium will give you better stamina recovery.

The thing that a lot of people go for is an Undaunted skill called Undaunted Mettle, which gives you +2% (if I remember right) of each attribute for each type of armor you have on, for a total of 6%. That's a pretty big bonus!
