The Diadem of the Savant also increases the Light Armor skill when worn in battle. Conversely increasing armor rating does not decrease the rate at which the skill advances.įor those who are Guildmaster of the Thieves Guild, wearing the Amulet of Articulation when taking hits will increase the Light Armor skill, as the amulet counts as Light Armor. Being the victim of power attacks likewise grants more experience than a standard attack. Thus, taking multiple attacks from a skeever or wolf levels Light Armor at a significantly slower rate than blows from giants or mammoths would. The rate of skill gain is based on the total amount of damage incoming before armor is applied. To level up the Light Armor skill most efficiently, wear a full set of Light Armor (head, hands, feet, chest).
Leveling up armor skills is relatively simple: take physical damage in combat while wearing armor pieces of that type.
