Rogue'ish Medium armor...

Thunderknuckles · June 2014

Is there any at all in ESO? I've gotten my NB to VR3 and still nothing that remotely resembles something you might expect to see on a rogue. And the colors are all bland. Brown, light brown and even off white. I hear that dyes are coming soon, and that will help tons. Thank you for that Zeni!

Still, out of frustration and near desperation I have just ended up using the Veiled Heritance (sp?) disguise you can find in Auridon. It's the most rogue looking armor, to me, of anything I've seen yet. I really don't want to go light armor as I wish to maintain the medium armor passives that are custom suited to NB.

Anyway, any suggestions some of you might have are certainly appreciated!

I love breton style on my khajiit nightblade. I think that style is the most detailed of all medium ones. When dyes come, making it all black will be just wow.

You can look at styles here for different levels:

Personally I've mostly done Bosmer style. Dyes will be a welcome addition when they come, for sure.

When is the color update comming out?

Thanks, all! Dyes may be the best thing yet to make medium armor look more...roguey. lol I spent a couple of weeks grinding up my clothing skill to lvl 9 so that I could use Daedric and, upon crafting an entire set, was greatly disappointed with it. The chest piece wasn't bad, but everything else was just not at all what I had expected or, rather, hoped for. That's when I gave up and just went and got the Veiled Heritance disguise. Maybe dyes will help mitigate some of this.

I know there are those players out there who would be just fine if all games were nothing but code scrolling before their eyes, but I think the majority of players certainly want their toons to look "cool" whilst out doing their thing. Medium armor just isn't cutting it as it is now.

Edited to say that I don't want the artists thinking I'm knocking what they've come up with. Medium armor looks great if you're going for a Roman type of look. It's just not very, hmmm...."roguey".

Breton was my favorite for Khajiit, too. It doesn't exactly look stealthy, but it still looks decent.

The VR12 Daedric medium armor looks pretty good, but it looks more badass than stealthy. It is really dark, though.

I've been using the nord style. Leather/fur with pieces of chainmail. Best looking medium armor, IMHO.

(hide the helmet tho
