Daedric Armor is a piece of heavy armor and part of the Daedric Armor set. It has the highest base armor rating of all armor pieces available in standard game.
Locations[]
Unenchanted armor will begin to appear throughout Skyrim at level 48 and enchanted variants can be found at level 49. These locations include:
- Found as random loot in chests.
- Dropped as random loot by Legendary Dragons.
Smithing[]
A Daedric Armor requires a Smithing level of 90 and the Daedric Smithing perk to create. It can be forged at a blacksmith's forge with the following components:
- 3 x Leather Strips
- 5 x Ebony Ingots
- 1 x Daedra Heart
It can be upgraded with an Ebony Ingot at a workbench and also benefits from the Daedric Smithing perk, which doubles the improvement.
Atronach Forge[]
Daedric Armor can also be crafted at the Atronach Forge, but it requires a Sigil Stone that can only be obtained via Conjuration Ritual Spell, which in itself requires a Conjuration skill of 90.
The Atronach Forge requires the following components to create Daedric Armor:
- 1 x Sigil Stone
- 1 x Daedra Heart
- 1 x Ebony Armor
- 1 x Centurion Dynamo Core
- 1 x Black Soul Gem (empty or filled)
