Light...Medium...Or Heavy Armour?

I prefer not to use Armour skills because they bore me, I like having a different outfit every once and a while, but I will soon start training light armour a little by maybe wearing a chintin cuirass, my armour lvl. will drop but will eventually rise and help me a little. But I doubt I will be doing that soon, maybe at lvl. 20?

i started off specialising in heavy armour because i wanted to join the imperial legion which has a lot of heavy armour (and medium but the heavy is better.) but when i got into the game i started using all armour i think my guy now has ebony,templar,daedric,glass and orcish armour.(im not that far into the game yet

You mean, what's the best light armor? That's easy. Glass. That's why we were discussing it in the context of light armor, because it's the only light armor that really bears consideration.

Light Armor

I'd personally choose light armor - Glass armor is particularly easy to find, and the Cuirass of the Savior's hide on a Breton makes for a potent combination.

Ok, let skip the light armor and go on to Medium armor. Which Medium armor is the one to prefer? Adamantium?

ya what is the rating on the gaurds armour in mournhold

I think the guards' armor rating in Mournhold must be quite high, since they are shining AND glimmering magically. Must been upgraded by the Goddess Almisivi, or what was her name again...

What guards are you refering to?
There are two types of guards in Mournhold; the Royal Guard with the red armor and the helm resembling the one of Boba Fett and then there's the High Ordinators with the light-red/purple looking armor with huge pauldrons. The latter ones would be the ones with shimmering armor. But only those Ordinators known as "Her Hands" have the enchanted versions of the armor. These are the 5 or 6 guards standing around Almalexia herself.

Either way, both the Royal Guard armor and the High Ordinator armor are considered medium but the Temple guards' armor has 70 in AR opposed to the King's guards' armor that has 55.

Note: Almalexia is the Goddess' name while ALMSIVI is the entire Tribunal; Vivec, Sotha Sil and Almalexia.

The High Ordinator armour is heavier than most heavy armours...

Errm, yea... Sorry about that. My bad.

High Ordinator armor is NOT medium armor even though I said it was. It is heavy as Rookierookie said. So once again, my bad...

This is what I get for changing the weight of the original armor and creating new sets...
