I'm a level 16 Dark Elf fighter/mage under the antonoch sign. Most of my armor is Dark Brotherhood, with the exception of a heavy curiass and glass helm and shield. I have an ebony long sword for real fights and a dwarven spear that I use against lesser opponents so that I can raise endurance as much as I can without training.
I want to start enchanting, but my skill level is low and I unfortunately took it as a minor skill. I could raise it by training since I have plenty of money, but I am advancing too fast as it is. I've only done a couple Blades quests and I'm close to becoming the head of the mage's guild (I've done the most of the quests, but need to advance my destruction). For now, I should put my sword away and focus on blowing things up.
saut - there is glass armor sitting in the open in Ghostgate. All you have to do is steal it. I need to go back there.
