legendary is the highest upgrade you can get for armor.
so you craft it and lets say it gets 40 armor at base, then you can upgrade it to fine, superior, exquisite and so on, legendary being the highest. but that in itself is just a name, you can get higher stats with higher smithing and +smithing gear.
@qvp what do you use for gear on smithing, enchanting and alchemy and how many upgrade pots did you make to get your stats?
my current 100 enchant/smithing only gets me +40% bow and +62 health.
not that the 3 health is more but that 5% x 4 = 20% more damage and that would be very nice.
my current daedric bows do 217 with either fire/frost enchantments at 31 dmg per or 20 life leech with 5 sec paralyze
e: do you use glass due to appearance preference?
i'm currently using full dragon set since it offers highest def without going into alchemy upgrading yet since i only have 100 smithing/alch but i went up the heavy smithing side to get daedric gear so i currently do not have any points spec'd into light armor crafting, but it's probably not too hard to find and buy glass gear.
also i have a questionm why is it that when i use +% smithing gear to make my gear it's lower than not wearing any, i know it helps when upgrading but shouldn't it help when crafting them too?
Gotta love paralyze, I have it on my other weapon but just 3-4 seconds because that's enough imo and you'll get more charges. Good thing about paralyze is that it won't use charge if your opponent resists it, which happens quite often.
