Only Matching Set lists it, but I've heard on here that other perks may also require this. Is it true? I prefer fur armor and shoes and foresworn bracers for my mage.

Dunno really.... I won't ever wear helms (eww.... UGLY....) so none of the "set" stuff is anything I pay attention to.

There is a mod for not requiring helmets. You should look into it.

Matching set- is not simply 4 pieces of light armor (head, hands, chest, feet) but a set, like all 4 pieces elven, DB, or nightingale. There is only 1 perk that light armor requires a matching set for: "matching set" is the name of that perk.

All light armor perks aside from the "agile defender" perks DO require a set of four pieces to function, but they do not need to match.

Sounds good. I figured this was right, but someone else on the forum said I needed a real matching set for most of the perks in the tree. Thanks!
