Dragon bone Cuirass (gives 100% fire resist and is the best heavy armor, so far, you’ll get in the game): South West of Ebon-heart in a Grotto submerged in the water (requires water breathing and a Grandmaster lock pick or a Spell to unlock 2 level 100 locked Doors) once inside swim until you find an entrance to a dwemer ruin. Keep swimming until you find a ladder with a hatch on the top (level 100 lock) and go through it. Once inside look for a closet (level 100 lock on it) where the armor is.*Also there’s a RARE hero potion on a shelf in the room as well!

Oreyn the Bear Claw helm (gives 40+ to agility and endurance): Head to Dagon fel and swim, water walk or levitate west until you get past the sanctus Shrine (you can find it on the map if you found it or have the map that comes with the game) then head south until you find a long island with a Daedric shrine on it. Head into the shrine (will have to fight sum orc’s) and talk to the statue. The statue will want you to find the “False” heir and kill him for betraying him. Head to Hla Oad and head north until you find sum dark-elves in armor around sum dead monsters. Speak to Oreyn (or the one in dwemer armor) and after you chat (talk on all topics on his list), kill him and his bodyguards. Return to the statue for your reward

Spear of Bitter Mercy: A powerful spear with a summon storm antronach and Reflect for 30 seconds on use. Head for the city of Vivec and head for the St. Delyn’s Canton area. Head to the very bottom of it (sewers) and look for a shrine (its guarded by some orc’s). Once you get through them, talk to the statue for the quest. You have to go and speak to a hermit (the island farthest north west of Vas) whose name is “Big Head”. He’ll give you a fork (Fork of Horripilation which is a very very weak weapon) and sends you to kill a giant Bull netch on a island just east of where he is. You have to land the killing blow on the netch with the fork. Once that’s done head back to the shrine to get the spear.

Ring of Surroundings (gives limited Chameleon on the user): At Balmora you might get a rumor that a guard at Fort Moon-moth wants to see you. Head to Fort Moonmoth and speak to the guard in the guards resting quarters (in the main building) he’ll ask you to go “Take care of some business” for him. He wants all the people in the Corner Club to be killed (Blood bath). After you do, return to him to get your reward.

Umbra (Powerful longsword with soul-trap enchant on it): When at Suran you might get a rumor about a crazy warrior that somewhere around the mountain side of suran (You need to be of HIGH level for this). Use a levitate spell or go around the long way toward the mountains north of suran (between Bal ur, Daedric shrine, and suran). You’ll see a lone Orc warrior in full Orchish armor, speak to him and he’ll ask for a noble or heroic death. Accept and kill him to get Umbra.

Azura’s star (Powerful soul-stone that will NEVER break upon using the soul captured with it, is a MUST for people that like to make enchantments or recharge ones they already have): Head to the tip of the peninsula in the Azura Coast region (you best have levitate or water walking for this, and a high combat level). Look for a statue, and just below it should be a door to a Daedric ruin (no monsters or anything to fight inside) and talk to the statue, she tells of how she made a bet with the god Sheogorath that a human can stay loyal for a certain amount of years. Sheogorath plans to win the bet by sending an army of daedra to kill this individual. Your to kill all the daedra on the island but don’t talk or “disturb” the women in the shack there. Head from Azura’s shrine Straight north until you reach dagon fel. From there, head west until you reach an island with a wooden Shack and a bunch of daedra on it. Kill all the daedra (there should be a Golden saint there) take Sheogorath’s ring from the Golden saint and return to Azura for your reward.

(These 3 Legendary artifacts below are all found in the SAME LOCATION in the SAME AREA)

Deadric Cresent Blade ( A very cool moon shaped blade with Paralyze and disintegrate armor on strike!):Head to Tel Fyr (South West of Sadrith Mora) and use levitate to get up to Tel fyr’s (the wizards) main chamber. You should have him look away or have a very good chameleon or invisibility spell handy. Also you should have a Grandmaster lock pick or Unlock spell for a level 100 locked chest. You should see a chest on the shelf left of Tel fyr (the wizard). Unlock it and take the amulet inside and equip it to you. You’ll be given a choice for it to teleport you to a Daedric ruin (You should have very good combat level for this). Choose yes and you’ll be put in a chamber with a Daedra lord wielding the blade, once you beat him, the amulet will transport you back to Tel fyr and the amulet will change into the Daedric Cresent Blade!

Scourge Blade (Excellent mace that has summon daedra lord and scamp enchant on it):Its located in a level 100 locked chest next to the chest where you get the amulet for the item above.

Cuirass of the Savior’s Hide ( Powerful Medium-armored Cuirass with a constant resist magic by 60% on it): You’ll find it in a closet that is in a room just outside Tel fyr’s Chamber. (Has a level 100 lock on it)

Incarnation of Flight Scrolls: Fortify acrobatics skill by 1000 points! (this isn’t a legendary item but there’s only 3 of this rare scroll in the entire game! you find them all in the same location)When you start out the game at Seyda Neen head west along the road until you hear a scream and see a man in robes fall from the sky! go to his corpse to get these rare scrolls ( just like him if you land on solid ground you’ll instantly die once you land from using this scroll, best you land in water).

(Both of these gauntlets can be found together)

Fist of Randagulf Right Gauntlet: When equipped gives constant fortify Strength by 20 points.

Fist of Randagulf Left Gauntlet: When equipped gives constant fortify Agility by 20 points. Can both be found at llunibi at Khartag point just north of Gnaar Mok. They are in the final chamber of the cave called : The Soul’s Rattle, (where you encounter a Blight monster named Dagoth Gare’s who is part of the main quest) hidden behind a table with items in it (there is 2 of them in the room but they are always behind the one to your left when you come in).

Mace of Molag Bal: Is a one-handed mace with absorb strength by 1-15 points and absorb magic by 1-15 points for 30 seconds on strike. Head to the Yansirramus shrine (northwest of Sadrith Mora) and talk to the statue to begin his quest. He wants you kill a daedra named Menta Na who is in the Kora-Dur Cavern just east of the stronghold of Kogoruhn (which is northwest of red mountain just outside the ghost fence). After that, return for your reward.

Goldbrand: A powerful one-handed golden longsword with fire damage (10-30 points) on strike. This one weapon would be almost impossible to find normally. Head to Hla Oad and head for an island northwest of it. It should have a Daedric ruin on it. Head past the ruin and swim in the water around the ruin until you find a daedric shrine underwater. Talk to the broken statue to get the quest. He wants you to help repair his broken statue so you’ll need to look for someone to repair his shrine. (you’ll need 2000 gold and Boethiah’s Glory which is a book you can find at Jobasha’s rare bookstore in foreign quarter in Vivec) When you go around town talking to people they will direct you to a orc in Ghorak manor ( the one with only orc’s and the “creeper” in it), give the orc the 2000 gold and the book. After that wait for 30-45 days (yeah its a long wait for a item but its worth it!). Head for Khartag point which is north of where you found the Daedric ruin on land. Talk to the shrine to finally get the sword.

Mentor’s Ring: A ring with constant fortify intelligence and willpower by 10 points! Can easily be found in the Samarys ancestral tomb northeast of Seyda Neen. The tomb is on the shore (just follow the road until you come to a bridge and it should be west along the beach of it).

Boots of the Apostle: Light armor boots that have the best light armor in the game! also has a levitate enchant on it. Can be found at a old stronghold (Marandus) that is East of Fort Moonmoth. (warning: these boots are at the very bottom of marandus and are heavily guarded by all types of Daedra)

Mantle of Woe: a robe that fortifies conjuration by 50 pts and multiplies your total Magicka by 5.0, however it also has constant sun damage 20pts and -100 pts in personality. This robe can be found in a well in the village of Skaal (on the island of Solsthiem). Skaal village can be found far in the northeastern reaches of Solsthiem. When you go down the well you’ll encounter a sorcerer (Timbaul) with a few skeleton body guards. The skeletons will attack but the sorcerer you’ll want to talk to. Try to persuade him to give you the robe and surely enough you’ll get the robe! (This is a quest you can start by talking to Lassnr in his house in Skaal village and the well is located behind his house)

Stendarrs hammer: Two handed blunt weapon with a max chop of 100 points! has a durability of 100 (which is the worst part) and an Enchantment of damage health 1-10 points and fatigue 1-2 points. Not to mention this is the heaviest weapon in the game! It can be found in Mournholds Museum of artifacts. *If your character is as strong as a god (300+ strength) then it’s probably worth taking if you can get past the guards with it!.

(The Legendary items below can only be found while doing the Main quests)

SPOILER ALERT!: Stop reading if you want to want to find out for your self what awaits you in the main quests! .. or if you want to, go ahead!

**

Hercines Ring: When equipped, turns you into a Werewolf! (get near the end of the Solsthiem main quest)

Ring of Azura: When equipped, gives you constant night eye (see in the dark) by 20 points and restore fatigue by 3 points (obtained after completing the main quest).

Ring of the Neveraine (Moon and Star): When equipped, gives you constant fortify personality and Speechcraft by 5 points (also improves the disposition of any person you talk too when you talk about the Neveraine, and mostly works after the main quest). Obtain it at the Moon and Star shrine (north east of Red Mountain just before you cross into the Grazelands) during the main quest. * You cannot enter the shrine until you either come during dawn or dusk hours (around 6:00 am and 8:00 pm).

Wraithguard: A right gauntlet that when equipped, gives you constant resist shock, fire, poison, magic, and frost by 10%. Also gives you shield by 10 points, Reflect by 20% , and Resist Blight disease by 50%! Is one of the strongest items in the game! You get it during the main quest by Vivec.

Sunder: Is a powerful one handed Blunt weapon (max chop: 70!) that is needed during the main quest storyline. Has constant fortify Strength, Endurance, and Luck by 20 points. Also has Fortify Attack by 30 points and drain fatigue by 1 point. Can be found in Red Mountain on a daedra at a dwemer ruin called Vemynal (is located in the ghost gate and is North west of the center of Red mountain). Can only wield while having the Wraithguard equipped or else you’ll die!

Keening: Is a powerful one handed Dagger (max thrust: 18) that is needed during the main quest storyline. Has constant fortify Magic 50 points, Attack by 30 points, Health by 30 points, Agility by 20 points, and Speed 20 points. Can be found in Red Mountain in a dwemer ruin called Odrosal (is located in the ghost gate and is South east of the center of Red mountain). You should look for a ladder while in the ruin that leads to the room containing it. Can only wield while having the Wraithguard equipped or else you’ll die!

(WARNING! : THIS IS THE MOST POWERFUL ITEM IN THE GAME!)

The Royal Signet Ring: A ring with constant reflect 100%, Resist Magicka 100%, Resist Paralysis 100%, restore health and fatigue by 10 points! This item can be found on none other than king Helseth himself (The king of Mournhold)! It would destroy the story line if you attempt to do this (same for the second Wraithguard) but if you already beat the game or just want it to make things easier then you’ll have to know that he’ll be heavily guarded by 5 of his strongest body guards along with battling him (he uses a Daedric Claymore). His closest body guard (Karod) will make things very difficult since his weapon (A Daedric-Dai Katana) is enchanted to disintegrate armor and paralyse!

The Second Wraithguard (Warning! do not attempt his unless you already completed every quest line in the game!) : the second Wraithguard is a Daedric left hand version with the same effects as the first Wraithguard. To get it, you must kill Vivec ( there’s no other way to get it from him) and take a dwemer artifact from his corpse. Head to Tel Fyr and speak again to the spider-legged dwarf Yagrum Bagarn and he’ll notice that you have the second wraithguard, however it’s not awake yet. He’ll send you off to get the books: Kragnec’s Tools and Kragnec’s journal. Both these books can be found in the same ruins that you find the Keening and Sunder at. Once you have all the materials head back to the dwarf and give them to him. You’ll have to wait a bit while he makes it for you, so I’d recommend sleeping a day or 2. Return to get obtain your Second Wraithguard!

* You might need to make sure you either have a lot  of hit points or have some healing potions ready (or cheats) for once you first put the Wraithguard on you’ll get drained of a huge amount of hit points, but afterward you can take it off or wear it like the normal Wraithguard.

    “Masque of Clavicus Vile” one of the best heavy helms in the game, has constant effect boost to personality, and high armor rating, take boat to Dagon Fel, go south from the dock, over the small mountain, there is a Dwemer Tower, enter, kill the 1 guard (2 more else where, not necessary to kill though), go to uper level,
    kill wizard, loot the helm, an daedric dagger, and other goodies in the room too

    Ah yes, Illidan’s Ward ! you just found yourself the strongest shield in the game! (Ibardad is the name of the cave). Sum I was a little “sketchy” on so I didn’t post them. The exact location of it was near an ashlander camp but the name of the camp and the exact location kept eluding me.
