Hi All

I was just wondering if Wearing Boots effect's your sneak skill in anyway??

i searched many sites looking for an answer to this question but ive had no luck, So im hoping someone can help me out....

No, they don't.

Thank you!!!

I actually heard that it's marginally harder when you're wearing heavy boots, but since the only time I ever used stealth was to clear out Rethan Manor for the Telvanni, I wouldn't really know much about it anyway. My advice would be to try it under a controled environment (you know, like those experiments in science class) and see what your results look like. I mean, Moltovir is probably right, but I do remember hearing something 'bout heavy boots in the manual.

Alien_Newborn is right check your manual it does say that wearing certain types of boots affect you....when I wore no boots in the begining it was easy to sneak...I think its because the boots make noise so people are aware of you more.

I must admit i have had more luck at sneeking while wearing just shoes,(but i might be getting lucky)
And recently i found on another website that the weight of your shoes/boots can effect sneaking. ( cant remember what site )

If it is the weight that effects it i think ill be using bound boots alot more often.

It does effect it, very small, but there is still something.

I've heard it has a very, very, very small effect. But nothing to worry about. Training your sneak skill should take care of your problem.
