Skyrim:Nordic

Nordic armor and weapons can be crafted with the Advanced Armors perk. All items, except arrows, can be tempered with a quicksilver ingot.

The Nordic Jewelry Creation adds jewelry items in the same style, which can be crafted after completing the related quest. See this page for the full list.

Nordic Carved Armor

Nordic carved armor is medium-quality heavy armor. The cuirass is comparable to ebony armor in strength but the boots, gauntlets and helmet are only of Orcish quality. The Nordic Shield is comparatively weak, being only slightly stronger than its Dwarven counterpart. A full set of Nordic carved armor (shield excluded) will offer slightly better protection than Orcish armor but weigh more, whereas including the shield makes it weaker than a full set of Orcish armor, but slightly lighter.

Notes

• Although added by Dragonborn, Nordic equipment is part of generic leveled lists, meaning it can be encountered outside of Solstheim.

Bugs

• The Nordic Greatsword is incorrectly displayed on NPCs and the player as a one-handed weapon. In addition, when drawn, the character stands like they're holding a greatsword, but there isn't one there and it still is "sheathed" on the hip.
  • The Unofficial Dragonborn Patch, version 2.0.2, fixes this bug.
