Oblivion Armor
Most items are randomly spawned from lists based on the player's level. The following table describes the minimum level at which an armor type begins to show up for the player; lower level armor will also randomly appear. Enchanted versions of each armor type will begin to appear 2 levels later; see Generic Magic Apparel for more information. See Leveled Lists for details on how these lists are used to determine the probabilities of individual items appearing.

| 1 | Fur | Iron |
| 3 | Leather | Steel |
| 6 | Chainmail | Dwarven |
| 10 | Mithril | Orcish |
| 15 | Elven | Ebony |
| 20 | Glass | Daedric |
