Finding generic enchanted jewelry and armor
NPCs that sell generic enchanted jewelry and armor:
- EarilSI in Earil's Mysteries always sells 3 leveled enchanted amulets/rings after resetting his inventory.
- KhafizTD and Kovan KrenTD at Dunbarrow Cove both spawn with guaranteed leveled enchanted light armor after resetting their inventory.
- Dumag gro-BonkSI in The Missing Pauldron, Viator Accius in Stonewall Shields, and Agnete the Pickled in Hammer and Tongs sell most leveled iron and steel enchanted armor.
Containers and enemies that contain/carry generic enchanted jewelry and armor that respawn (like dungeons):
- Robber's Glen Cave is the best place after Earil's Mysteries to obtain leveled enchanted jewelry. It also is possibly the best dungeon in the game to obtain other enchanted items, like armor (on average 1.25 pieces of enchanted weapons, jewelry and armor each). Crayfish Cave, especially Crayfish Soggy Bottom and Crayfish Vents may be even better, but are not as easily accessible. In general Monster Dungeons are the best to find these.
- The Blind Moth Prelate guarding Savillas stone in Temple of the Ancestor Moths respawns with new guaranteed jewelry. However, Zone 5 can't be accessed from the outside without console commands.
- Fort Wooden Hand Stockade, Dasek Moor Maleboge and Fort Cedrian Mausoleum all have the highest average of 1.4 enchanted heavy armor per visit (Marauder Warlords on average have 0.3 pieces of cruiass/boots/greaves, 0.15 shield and .075 helmet/gauntlets). These areas also have a boss chest.
- Sercen (1.475 pieces on average), Dzonot Main Cavern, the 2nd and 3rd zones of Black Rock Caverns and Rockmilk Haven (all 1.375 pieces on average) have the highest average of enchanted light armor per visit. The Bandit Ringleaders have an average of wearing 1.275 pieces of enchanted light armor per visit (cuirass/boots 0.3, greaves/helmet=.225, shield=.15, gauntlets=.075). All these areas also have a boss chest.
- The Legion Commander's Chest in the Imperial Legion Offices has 25% chance of respawning both enchanted armor and weapons, in addition to 2 pieces of either regular armor and weapons.
- The Guildmaster's Chest in the Chorrol Fighters Guild may have an average of containing 0.54 enchanted items (weapons, arrows, armor or jewelry) at midnight of every new month if you choose to focus on recruitment after completing The Hist at the end of the Fighters Guild questline. Getting potions from the chest is another option.
NPCs that have level-dependent amount of generic enchanted armor that you can pickpocket at the start of every level:
- Herminia Cinna spawns with enchanted jewelry at the start of every level.
- About every NPC at Border Watch spawns with possibly enchanted light armor at the start of every new level.
- With exception of Torbal, every NPC at Brindle Home possibly wears an enchanted piece of either light or heavy armor.
- One of the Camonna Tong Thugs wears a second pair of guaranteed enchanted light greaves.
- Fathis Aren at Castle Bravil possibly wears an enchanted piece of heavy cuirass (30%, otherwise unenchanted).
- Antus Flonius at the Leyawiin Fighters Guild possibly wears an enchanted piece of heavy cuirass (30%, otherwise unenchanted).
- As long as not killed during the related quest, Gogron gro-Bolmog has 30% chance of wearing enchanted heavy boots, gauntlets, greaves and a cuirass, each (always of the best quality).
However, some NPCs on this list never sleep. So their weapons can only be obtained by reverse-pickpocketing a more valueble item first, then returning to the area after it's reloaded.
Multiple Enchantments
The items listed in this section have multiple enchantments; all of the other apparel on this page have only a single enchantment. Since custom items can only be created with a single enchantment, these multiple enchantment items can be particularly valuable.

Light
† A Ring of Light can be found on a roof in Crucible. This is only accessible in the Shivering Isles expansion. See Magic Items with Guaranteed Locations for details.
Night-Eye
† In the game, no magnitude or duration are actually listed for any of these items; these durations are only apparent in the Construction Set. Since all apparel-based enchantments are constant-effect, these durations appear to be meaningless. Furthermore, since there's no variability in the potency of the Night-Eye spell, all of these items should be equivalent in terms of their effect.
§ On female characters, the Darksplitter Helmet appears as a Chainmail Helmet when equipped, although it still has the stats appropriate to an Orcish Helmet.
- The Unofficial Oblivion Patch fixes this bug.
Reflect Damage
† A "Tiger Fang Shield" is carried by Burz gro-Khash.
†† The magnitudes of the enchantments on the "Grand Ring of Retribution" and the "Ring of Retribution" are out of order.

- The Unofficial Oblivion Patch fixes this bug.
Resist Normal Weapons
† "Resist Normal Weapons Quilted Doublet" is the item's full name. However, in your inventory it is likely that the name will be truncated due to lack of space.
†† A "Weaponward Cuirass" is worn by the Gray Fox.
††† "Russet Felt Shirt of Blade Turning" is the item's full name. In your inventory it is likely that the name will be truncated due to lack of space. This "shirt" uses the same mesh and texture as the Russet Felt Outfit, but the lower body slot is deselected. As a result, pants or greaves may be worn with it as if it were actually just a shirt, but part of the close-fitting lower half will clip with the character's bare legs or any garment or armor that occupies the lower body slot.
* The "Weaponbane Cuirass" occupies the tail equipment slot as well as the upper body slot. As a result, the Weaponbane Cuirass can not be equipped simultaneously with the Mountaineer's Shield, which is the only other item in the game to use the tail slot (without third-party mods).

- The Unofficial Oblivion Patch fixes this bug.
†† The "Greaves of the Unstoppable" have the appearance of Chainmail Greaves when worn by female characters, but otherwise are based on Orcish Greaves.
- The Unofficial Oblivion Patch fixes this bug.
††† The magnitudes of the enchantments on the "Grand Ring of Freedom" and the "Ring of Freedom" are out of order.
- The Unofficial Oblivion Patch fixes this bug.

Water Breathing
† It is unclear why there need to be three of these, since in every way that matters, they are exactly the same.
†† Though you would expect an item with a name like this to have a Water Walking enchantment, you'd be wrong.
Water Walking
† It is unclear why there needs to be three of these, since in every way that matters, they are exactly the same.
†† There is only enough room to see "Waterwalking Gold Trimmed" in your inventory.
