Ancient Falmer Armor is a unique light armor set in The Elder Scrolls V: Dawnguard.

Physical appearance

Overall, the set looks like a blend of ebony and elven armor, but with a white and maroon color scheme. It also has a small bat motif on the collar and a Celtic knot design on parts of the armor, such as the back.

The individual pieces are statistically identical to glass armor though the lack of helmet and shield makes the entire set weaker. The Ancient Falmer Crown serves as its matching helmet, but it can only be obtained with console commands. Since it is classified as a circlet, wearing the crown with the rest of the set does not grant the bonus for any perks relating to a matching set of armor. An elven helmet or Falmer helmet (despite the latter being heavy armor) will grant the bonus.

Acquisition

The ancient Falmer armor can only be obtained from the corpse of Arch-Curate Vyrthur after defeating him in the conclusion of Touching the Sky.

Smithing

All pieces of the Ancient Falmer armor set can be upgraded with a refined moonstone ingot at a workbench and also benefit from the Elven Smithing perk, which doubles the improvement.

Attributes by piece

Template:ArmorAttributes † The Ancient Falmer Crown cannot be obtained without the use of console commands, and is classed as a circlet, rather than a piece of armor.

Trivia
