Am I the only who thinks its weird its heavy? Hes a dragon priest after all.

Yes. Yes, I do.

I can't wait until I have it for PC, so I can make it look like something else. I have the Ancient Nord Armor... I will probably make it look like Miraak's Robes, because they are the closest thing to Dragon Priest Armor there is; or the Cultists' Armor...

I think of cloth or at least light armor, but not heavy armor when it comes to priests.

Maybe that is what they wore back in the days when he was still amoungst the living. lol

That could be a possibility, but why is what he wearing in death different?

He is not wearing them and I do not know why. He is wearing the mask. The rest of the items are scattered around the tomb as if a shrine to him..

I mean why is he wearing the dragon priest robe when you fight him, instead of the armor.

Because there is no version of Ancient Nord armor mesh for the Dragon Priest skeleton.

I imagine they didn't look like that in life, you know. They were men after all. That's their lich form.

maybe those are just burial robes.

Maybe the armour is too heavy for his quick manoevering.
