How to Get Glass Armor in Skyrim

Skyrim is one of the best action RPGs, and it allows players to craft amazing builds depending on their playstyle. Each build is unique and brings something new to the table, which is just one of the reasons why Skyrim remains incredibly popular to this day.

Speaking of builds, players should check out the different armor Skyrim has to offer. One such armor is the Glass Armor. Although it is light, it has plenty to offer. Keeping this in mind, this guide will illustrate how players can get their hands on this armor along with other helpful tidbits.

How to Get Glass Armor in Skyrim

Players can find Glass Armor as random loot or in merchant inventories starting at level 37. Players cannot get the Glass Armor early in the game, so they must grind until they reach the required level.

Glass Armor can be bought from merchants and Blacksmiths, or they can find it in chests in the game. Additionally, players can also get Glass Armor from boss chests after defeating a boss. However, players that do not want to spend a lot of time looking for the armor should head to:

Northwatch Keep
Thalmor Embassy

Unenchanted Glass Armor will be available after level 36, while enchanted variants will be available after level 37.
