• New craftable Ebony Armor and Shield.
Craftable parts:
• Helmet • Earrings Large • Earrings Small • Amulet • Cuirass Pants • Cuirass Shorts • Gauntlets • Boots • Shield (cosmetic)
• The armor is a bit stronger and a bit lighter compared to a vanilla ebony armor.
• The Helmet, Earrings, Cuirass, Gauntlets and Boots can be enchanted normally.
• The earrings have the same stats as the helmet and are an option for those who don't much like wearing helmets.
• The request for the creation of this outfit came from docteure. Many Thanks!
• Original artwork and reference used for the creation of this outfit by Cham s.
• This outfit was made entirely in Blender.
• Every single mesh was made from scratch and it's unique to Skyrim.
• All textures were hand painted in Photoshop from the Diffuse,
Specular, Reflection, to the Height maps.
• The armor incorporates a mix of compressed and uncompressed 2K textures
to offer the best results and maintain the SSE quality without the annoying
artifacts of the DirectX 9 compression.
• The outfit was made using Blender, Outfit Studio, Nifscope, Photoshop and Crazy Bump.
• All the recipes will only be available as long as you carry the crafting manual in your inventory.
When you are done crafting store the manual and your crafting interface will be free again.

DX Dark Knight Armor - UNP LE adds a new craftable Ebony Armor and Shield set for Skyrim Legendary Edition. With nearly 2,000 endorsements and 39,000 downloads, it's a popular cosmetic armor mod. Last updated in 2020, it remains a solid choice for UNP body users.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with nearly 2k endorsements and 39k downloads—clearly a hit.
- Craftable armor means you can get it without console commands or hunting for it.
- Ebony style fits dark knight themes and looks great on UNP bodies.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020—might have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim LE mods or patches.
- Only for UNP body type, so if you use CBBE or other body mods, you'll need conversions.
- No screenshots or detailed description provided, so you're flying blind on the visual quality.
For Skyrim Legendary Edition players who use the UNP body and want a dark, edgy ebony armor set that's craftable. If you're into role-playing as a dark knight or just want a new armor option, this is for you. Skip if you use CBBE or want a more feature-rich mod with enchantments or quests.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the UNP body mod installed, or the armor may clip or not fit properly.
- You'll need to craft the armor at a forge—check the Ebony smithing perk to unlock it.
- Since it's for Legendary Edition, don't try to use it on Skyrim Special Edition without conversion.
