Thank you guys for the answers and for the motivation. I continued searching and found a good swamp so now my longship's storage is full of iron

Also, to the guy saying he couldn't fine any crypts to mine iron, remember that iron spawns outside of crypts in the swamps, under the ground. Look up some youtube videos on how to find them.

Mining iron that way was my last hope. Staying half underwater in the dark just to mine few pieces isn't really fun :(

If you have around 72 armor or higher then you're negating enough damage, the way armor works is funky and the dimenishing return starts at 50 and really falls off around 70-80, and gives you less additionally after that. Though it is still worth having higher armor as many instances it can mean the difference between surviving with 5 hp left or being dead.

Wolf armor can go to 80 so you'd do just fine with it, just don't try to tank a seeker soldiers attacks and you should be fine. Fenris armor on the other hand is too low unless you're really confident in yourself in never getting hit and landing parries 100 percent of the time.

It's always good to know how things work under the hood, thanks.
