Is it better to go 5-1-1 with armor for the undaunted bonus or just to stick with all 7 the same?

    For magica dps in Pve, 5-1-1. For Stam, I like 7 medium for the extra crit.

    In PvP, if I wear heavy, I got 5-2 (2 light if magica, 2 medium if Stam). If I wear light, 5-1-1. On a stamblade, 7 medium for the roll dodge cost reduction.

    It depends. Most of the time it's worth it.

    5-1-1 is generally better. 8% extra health isn't to be scoffed at.

    A lot can depend on what RNG gave me in terms of monster set helm/shoulders drops. I aim for 5-1-1, but in some cases if it's a set I really like, I'll use it "anyway".
    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.

    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    With magicka chars, 5-1-1 is usually better, since light armor pieces only give you cost reduction. For medium, they give you weapon crit, so it can be worth going all medium.

    Depending on your build, you don't even have a choice, like on my two-hander stamsorc where I use Automaton and Spriggan. :)
