I agree. A lot of the helmets don't really look great. Also, they squish my Argonian's face.

Dwarven armor is heavy as hell and gives little defense bonus from Steel. Just go from steel to Orc.

I just sort of went through all the armors set by set.
Which was a terrible idea because I hadn't learned the skill to work on enchanted stuff till a few levels ago, but I had enchanted all of my armor.
I'm not very good at planning skills.

I've got a Dwarven Greatsword with 1sec soul trap enchantment that I use for filling my gems, called it "Damocles"

P.S. I managed to open a Master lock, WITHOUT any skills in Lockpicking at all, in less than 10 tried, who's the master thief now, huh?!

I have a really high lockpicking skill even though I'm a rough'n'tumble warrior. It stems from my bad habit of opening every chest, door, and cage I find.

This.

rule 1 of the elder scroll games: Loot everything
rule 2 of the elder scroll games: Loot. Everything.
Rule 3 Of the elder scroll games: Unlock everything then proceed to Loot everything.

Pretty much.
No corpse goes un-rifled, no chest un-looted, no gate or door un-jimmied.

we are the locust of skyrim!, we Loot and purge and sell everything of valve....Which is EVERYTHING.

Maybe on my next run I'll go adventurer instead of wood elf archer-assassin

I am now orcish warrior with magic sparkly boots and gauntlets.

Elemental Fury + Dual Flurry is the most overpowered thing in the game
Four weapon strikes per second with increased damage

Is me. I don't mind the Dwarven helmet on my chick, the sculpted face just makes it look even more awesomely assassinish. Although it doesn't go very well with the rest of my elven armour.

Why would you be wearing both dwarf and elven armour? One is heavy and one is light :U

Because I love the helmet
