Madness Armor is a heavy armor cuirass from the Saints & Seducers Creation. It is forged from Madness Ingots and has a base armor rating of 52 and a weight of 52. It becomes craftable after reading Evethra's Journal.

Armor Enchantment

Any armor enchantment can be placed on a Madness Armor at an arcane enchanter.

Every armor enchantment is listed under Enchantment Effects.

Madness Armor Location

Any forge makes it after Evethra's Journal is read. Evethra carries the journal at her camp north of Mistwatch, during the quest Amber and Madness Smithing.

Gameplay Tips

Temper it at a workbench with one Madness Ingot. The Ebony Smithing perk doubles the improvement.
Forge it with the Ebony Smithing perk from 5 Madness Ingots, 2 Ebony Ingots and 3 Leather Strips.
Its 52 armor is the highest of any cuirass, ahead of Daedric Armor at 49.
Four Madness pieces count as a matched set for the Matching Set perk, which adds 25% armor.
