Finding an Elven Cuirass

Hey, just wondering where i can find some elven cuirass. My char. is lvl 31 and its actually kinda hard to find the elven cuirass. If anyone knows of where to obtain it, id be greatful. — Unsigned comment by 69.121.100.100 (talk) at 21:10 on 7 May 2007

I've added some information to the article on where to find one. At level 31 you should easily be able to find some bandits who are wearing one: nearly every bandit will have a 50% chance of being equipped with one. --Nephele^Talk 18:40, 7 May 2007 (EDT)

I wonder if they become more difficult to find after you accept this quest. I have come accross them (Elven Cuirass) since about level 15 through most of my encounters with bandits. But now that I have accepted the quest, the bandits I encounter are wearing glass or mithril. But if you want to come face to face with some bandits I would suggest visiting campsites (quick-travel if you prefer). They are all over those places.--Quix 10:53, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Whether or not elven cuirasses appear is determined by random item generation based on leveled lists. This is a hard-wired feature of the game and as such has basically no way of being influenced by quest-related variables such as whether or not you have accepted a quest. And the chances of finding elven armor will only go up at higher levels. At level 15, any piece of light armor has a one in three chance of being elven. At levels 20 and higher, it becomes a one in two chance. --Nephele^Talk 11:47, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

(←) OIC, I noticed that the 'Cuirass of Anu's Blessing' (though it looked elven) was not accepted by J'bari, for the advanced armorer training. I thought it would since he touched on it 'not mattering wether it be enchanted or not'.Quix 16:13, 1 November 2007 (EDT)

The Cuirass of Anu's Blessing is an Elven Cuirass but an enchanted one. J'bari actually says "I need a new Elven cuirass. Nothing fancy, nothing enchanted. Just a decent piece of armor. You get that for me, and I'll train you. That's the deal." (my emphasis) and that's why he doesn't accept it. The technical reason is that as far as the game is concerned, the only relationship between the C of A's B and an Elven Cuirass is the icon - everything internal is different. --Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 16:35, 1 November 2007 (EDT)

love of dogs

I overheard two NPC's in Leyawiin talking about J'Bari (it was Weebam-Na and Bejeen), the conversation asked if the other person had every made any bets with J'Bari and then talked about his love for dogs and how he strangely likes to leave meat outside every night (I think they said at 11?) Has anyone noticed any behavior similar to this? — Unsigned comment by ‎98.233.41.192 (talk) at 02:00 on 31 December 2014

These are both rumors that are said about J'bari or the Khajiit he lives with, Tsrava. You can find some of the rumors about the dogs on Tsrava's page. From looking at all the rumors in the Construction Set, none of the people mention him leaving meat out at any specific time. They simply say, "He pays his debts, but his love of dogs is just odd. I've heard he leaves meat in his backyard to attract them." J'bari can never actually be seen leaving this meat out though, based on the schedule already written on the page (a quick look in the Construction Set confirms this as well).

J'Bari in love with Shuravi?

J'Bari clearly likes to write love letters, as there is one out in the open to his presumed wife Tsrava about their marriage. However, I wouldn't say their marriage is particularly happy considering how J'Bari apparently loves dogs and Tsrava openly despises them. in the back room on his desk, there is another letter, this one refers to asking out a headstrong woman with a daffodil. It could be an older letter from before they were married, but its strange to me it would be so recently out on his desk. Going over to the Three Sister Lodge, there is another letter in the area in what is probably Shuravi's bedroom (she doesnt sleep) that thanks an unknown suitor for his 'gift' and describes walking around the gardens on a date. My other evidence for this theory is that they are also both Khajiit. One thing that throws a wrench in this theory might be that there is another letter on the second floor of the Three Sisters Lodge about a spurned lover. Perhaps Shuravi originally rejected him after realizing he was married, but since that is one of the rented bedrooms it could be unrelated. — Unsigned comment by Austings (talk • contribs) at 00:14 on 31 July 2020
