There are at least 20 known and distinct armor sets to be collected across two distinct armor classes–light and heavy, in The Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion Remastered. While your character build will determine which armor class you choose, finding the best of them is going to be a matter of questing and luck with random drops.
This guide is about getting the best armor sets from either class, to be found or crafted in The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Remastered.
Brusef Armor Set
Amelion Tomb, north of Leyawiin
Various pieces of Brusef Amelion’s Light Armor are scattered throughout the cave complex known as Amelion Tomb.
Glass Armor Set
Roxey Inn, north of Imperial City
One of the most coveted sets in the Light Armor group, Glass Armor is a top-tier choice for agile character builds that rely on stealth and speed.
Spawn requirement: Level 20
Amber Armor Set
The pinnacle of the Light Armor group, the Amber set is also enchantable with Amber Matrices.
The quest ‘A Door in Niben Bay’ will take you to the Shivering Isles to collect Amber ore and then forge the entire set in Bliss at The Missing Pauldron.
Daedric Armor Set
Roxey Inn, north of Imperial City
One of the most coveted sets in the Heavy Armor group, Daedric Armor is a top-tier choice for tank character builds that rely on strength and defense.

Madness Armor Set
A Strange Door, in Niben Bay, east of Bravil
The pinnacle of the Heavy Armor group, the Madness set is enchantable with Madness Matrices, and even more durable than the Daedric set.
The quest ‘A Door in Niben Bay’ will take you to the Shivering Isles to collect Madness ore and then forge the entire set in Crucible at Cutter’s Weapons.
Those are the 6 best Armor Sets in both Light and Heavy classes to find or forge in The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Remastered.
