The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I get Daedric armor items?
1 of 4: You can supposedly get them from some enemies and leveled loot once you reach level 48, but my level 81 character has yet to see any of that.
2 of 4: Some special merchants, like Tonilia in Riften's Ragged Flagon (see the Thieves Guild faction hints) can have random Daedric weapons for sale, but I don't know of any that can sell Daedric armor. Also, there are no non-random Daedric armor items lying around anywhere.
3 of 4: Once you get your Smithing skill up to 90, you can get the Daedric Smithing perk and create your own Daedric armor items.
4 of 4: Your only other option is to use the Atronach Forge to create Daedric items, which requires you to get your Conjuration skill up to 90 and do a certain side quest. See the College of Winterhold faction hints for details on doing the side quest ("Conjuration Ritual Spell") and using the Atronach Forge ("Midden Activities").
