The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind eGuide Training Skills Armor Skill Lines

Medium Armor

Maximum Rank: Medium Armor Rank 50

Maximum Investment: 13 Skill Points

If you rely on mobility and/or Physical Damage, make the Medium Armor skill line a priority.

Active Ability

Evasion

Activating this ability grants Major Evasion, increasing your Dodge Chance by 15%. Because Major Evasion is a standardized effect, this ability doesn’t scale with Maximum Stamina—though it does feature a fairly high Stamina cost.

Available Morphs
Icon Name New Effect

Shuffle

Each piece of medium armor worn removes and grants immunity to snares and immobilizations for a short time.

Elude

Each piece of medium armor worn increases the effect’s duration.

Passive Abilities

The Medium Armor skill line contains five Passive Abilities. Recovery features three ranks; all other Medium Armor Passives offer two ranks.

Dexterity, Wind Walker, Improved Sneak, and Athletics can all offer aid to anyone using at least one piece of medium armor, but equipping more pieces improves their effects.
