Gameplay Tips
- Temper it at a workbench with one Steel Ingot. The Advanced Armors perk doubles the improvement.
- A full set of Dawnguard light armor cuts the damage taken from vampires by 25%.
- Wearing all four Dawnguard pieces together earns the extra 25% armor of the Matching Set perk.
Smithing Guide
Enchanted weapons require the Arcane Blacksmith Perk to upgrade.
Upgrades
A Dawnguard Helmet is improved at a workbench with one Steel Ingot per improvement. The Advanced Armors perk doubles the improvement, so each quality tier needs less Smithing skill. An enchanted copy can only be improved with the Arcane Blacksmith perk.
