Alchemy[edit]

The following alchemy ingredients can be used to create a potion of Fortify Light Armor:

Enchanting[edit]

The following items use this effect. You can learn how to enchant custom items with Fortify Light Armor if you find one of the following items and disenchant it:

  • All varieties of Armor and Necklaces of the Squire
    • Includes the enchantments of the Minor Squire, of the Major Squire, of the Noble Squire, of the Extreme Squire, of the Eminent Squire, and of the Peerless Squire.

Artifacts and unique items that use the effect but cannot be disenchanted include:

Notes[edit]

  • Fortify Light Armor potions crafted via alchemy always last 60 seconds; this cannot be lengthened with Alchemy perks, skill level, and/or Fortify Alchemy enchanted apparel worn. What is increased is how much your Light Armor skill level is raised for that duration.
  • Heavy Armor pieces (such as Iron Gauntlets) can be enchanted with the Fortify Light Armor effect, even though they derive no benefit from this.

Bugs[edit]

  • Several light armor items are labeled as having "Knight" enchantments, but do in fact fortify your Light Armor skill. In particular:
    • Dragonscale Armor of the Eminent Knight
    • Dragonscale Armor of the Noble Knight
    • Dragonscale Armor of the Peerless Knight
    • Elven Gilded Armor of the Eminent Knight
    • Elven Gilded Armor of the Noble Knight
    • Glass Armor of the Eminent Knight
    • Glass Armor of the Noble Knight
      Mod Notes: Item names should read "Squire", not "Knight"
