Do you love to summon creatures from the depths of Oblivion?
Are you one of those who prefer to make stuff levitate, or throw weird-looking spells at your enemies? Then you’re probably tired of dressing like a homeless high school teacher in Skyrim.
So in this piece I’m bringing you the ultimate way to reinvigorate your Skyrim mage playthrough: new clothes! Granted we covered clothing mods already, but this list is just focused on you mages.
Now I know mages and battlemages have different styles. So that’s why I’m compiling this list of mods to suit anyone that aims to master the arts of using magicka in Skyrim.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a wizard, a mage, a battlemage, a witch, or a homeless dude with a fashion sense: these mods will be fine additions to your next magical Skyrim adventure.
This intimidating set of armor is meant to be worn by females only, and it gets a spot on my list because of the sheer awesomeness of its aesthetic.
The Blood Witch Armor has a red tone and a set of aesthetic features that give me some creepy BDSM vibes… but the set is super useful, and should look quite good on most characters.
In fact, I’d even suggest you download this set for other non-witch characters.
It’s designed to be worn by witches, but it would actually suit a rogue or thief quite well, too.
The Raven Witch Armor set is, without a single shadow of a doubt, the most badass-looking set of female witch armor in the game.
If you intend to play a female wizard and you want her to sustain a decent amount of damage, all without compromising her stylish looks, then the Raven Witch Armor mod is something you’ll want.
Also, this set looks exactly like one of those Ultra HD sets of armor that people often created in Oblivion… you know, the ones that caused old computers to implode whenever you equipped them.
Tribunal Robes & Mask comes with three different sets of armor that range from regular clothes to heavy equipment. And they all look fantastically well done.
They also seem quite intimidating, as they all include masks and hoods that give you that vibe of “I’m going to summon a Dremora to murder you and take your spirit to fill my soul stones”.
If you want your mage character to strike fear into the hearts of even the most powerful foes, well you’ve found the mod that you’re looking for.
This mod is actually a retexture of Echo’s mod. But given that this one looks better than the original, I’m putting it on my list instead of its counterpart.
Don’t worry though, you can find the link to the original mod right here.
As is often customary with female sets of armor in RPGs, these robes have just the amount of clothes to fall on the lighter side.
Regardless, the clothing model looks good and it’s made to look even better thanks to the retexture.
I firmly believe that this set should’ve been in the base game.
But I’m glad that someone took the time to create it and incorporate it into Skyrim anyway.
Dragon Bone Mage Armor is a high-level set of dragon equipment, which will make your character look like a badass wizard and a Comic-Con cosplayer at the same time.
When it comes to modded light armor mage sets, this one takes the cake as the best one I’ve managed to find.
It just provides such a fantastic aesthetic balance between leather clothing and mage robes. I can’t help but feel like nominating it to a medieval fashion show.
In any case, the Hedge Mage Armor set comes in 9 different colors and it’s meant to be exclusively worn by female characters (much like many of the clothing here!)
With this set of armor, you’ll resemble one of those crazy dudes who would sacrifice a cow to please Sheogorath… but trust me, it’s an absolutely gorgeous set of equipment.
It can be worn by females and males, plus it suits all mage playstyles in the base game.
Robes, light armor, and heavy armor are all included within this mod. So pick your poison and get to it!
