Skyrim Best Armor: Heavy, Light, Masks, and Shields Armor
Masks: Konahrik, Hevnoraak, Otar
Masks are unique to Skyrim and have been features in no other Elder Scrolls title. These death masks belonged to mysterious entities known as the Dragon Priests, who must be fought in order to obtain their mask. There are 9 masks in-game, with the ninth and final mask, Konahrik, obtained after the player possesses the other 8 masks and completes a short quest chain. Upon completion, the Konharik mask summons a random Dragon Priest on the player’s location, a chance to knock back enemies, heal the player and allies, and grant a cloak of fire when near death. Overall, it’s the most badass Skyrim mask by a country mile, and worth the effort to attain.
In second comes Hevnoraak which grants a passive immunity to diseases and poison. Players can find Hevnoraak in Valthume, just south-east of Markarth or south-west of Rorikstead. Dragon priests are tough, so come prepared!
In third place comes the Otar mask, which can be found in Ragnvald, north of Markarth. The mask grants a 30% resistance to frost, fire, and shock.
