Skyrim Deathbrand Armor: A Guide to Collecting All Pieces

The Deathbrand armor set is a light armor collection designed for players who utilize magic or prefer a spell-sword combat style, introduced in the Skyrim Dragonborn DLC. This distinctive armor becomes more powerful as you gather more pieces, which can be acquired by embarking on the associated quest aptly named Deathbrand.

First, you will need to initiate the quest before searching for the armor pieces. All components can be found in the Solstheim area of Skyrim.

How to Start the Deathbrand Armor Set Quest?

To commence the quest, you need to be at least level 38; if you’re lower than that, you won’t be able to start it. Next, locate and read a copy of the Deathbrand book—this can be found in the Temple at Raven Rock.

Upon reading the book, you’ll gain the ability to open Ancient Chests. If you’ve previously unlocked any of these chests (typically through lock-picking) before reading the book, they would have been empty.

Alternatively, you can head directly to Haknir’s Shoal without completing the prior tasks. Take out the pirates and loot the chest where you’ll find the Deathbrand Helm, thus starting the quest. From one of the defeated enemies, likely the leader, you can acquire a map detailing the locations of the remaining armor pieces.
