Arqade Asked on February 27, 2021
My light armour is now at level 100 and my two-handed is at 90. I’m tempted to make light armour legendary. Should I wait till two-handed is at 100 and make that legendary or should I make light armour legendary now?
Which choice will make me less vulnerable in attacks? I don’t want to make both legendary since I feel I will lose too much power if I do.
For context:
My current thinking, based on a now deleted comment by user l I, is to make two-handed legendary again, since my armour + enchantments gives me a lot of protection.
Neither are good options*.
Skyrim have scaling enemies and expect you to be at certain level of combat effectiveness. Dropping either of those skills to starting values will be highly detrimental.
To test it out, save before a fight that you don't have any problems with, then reload and make one of the skill legendary. You will find that the fight is now 10 times longer, or you are outright dead in seconds.
*There is a caveat. If your Enchanting, Alchemy, and Smithing are all 100, and you are decked out in max enchanted gear with max boosted Smithing (even without the Restoration infinite Smithing bug), you'll still be invincible with all your skills at base levels.
Correct answer by Nelson on February 27, 2021
After a lot of consideration, I came to the conclusion that I should make light armour legendary. I should point out that Nelson's answer was useful in helping me think about things, but most importantly, his comment about smithing/enchantment.
EDIT: I should point out that after the mod edit, this 'answer' of mine seems to make no sense. I previously wrote how I then went ahead and played with light armour at 15. I was able to level up quickly and not sustain any significant damage. I was helped by having some legendary smithed weapons and one or two pieces of enchanted armour/jewellery.
I now use one-handed/block more than two-handed and made one-handed legendary yesterday, with light armour being 100, block on 92 and using a legendary smithed ebony war axe. Very shortly after I was set upon by several draugr, some of which were deathlords. Even though it took longer to hack away at the deathlords, I sustained no significant damage.
