Deathbrand Armor is a unique set of stalhrim light armor that appears in The Elder Scrolls V: Dragonborn.

Individually, each piece is weaker than dragonscale armor, however when the whole set is worn it ranks higher than even Daedric Armor, due to the helm's unique enchantment.

HistoryEdit

The armor was said to be worn by the legendary pirate king, Haknir Death-Brand. After failing to find a worthy successor, his final wish before he died was for his crew to take a longboat to Solstheim and bury his armor in four separate locations on the coast, while he himself was buried in a barrow on the island.^[1]

Acquisition Edit

All pieces are obtained from ancient chests that can only be found during the quest "Deathbrand". The locations are:

Name	Location
Deathbrand Armor	North of the Earth Stone, follow the coast. Guarded by two Reavers.
Deathbrand Boots	West of Tel Mithryn, along the shore. Surrounded by a group of Ash Spawn.
Deathbrand Gauntlets	South of the Bristleback Cave, in a ditch before a river. Surrounded by a group of Mudcrabs. Follow the coast south from the cave.
Deathbrand Helm	Haknir's Shoal, north of the Wind Stone.

SmithingEdit

The armor can be upgraded with a piece of Stalhrim, and the Arcane Blacksmith perk, at a workbench and benefit from the Ebony Smithing perk, which doubles the improvement.
