Amulet of Articulation

The Amulet of Articulation is an amulet given to you by Brynjolf for becoming the new Guildmaster of the Thieves Guild in the quest Under New Management. Its enchantment grants a bonus to Speech, which increases the chance of successfully persuading someone. It is unusual in that it is one of only two amulets in the game to provide an armor bonus, the other being the Locket of Saint Jiub.^DG

Notes

• Wearing the Amulet of Articulation allows you to automatically succeed at all persuasion checks in the game regardless of skill.
• The amulet also increases the Speech skill by its listed "articulation" value, but because you pass all persuasion checks anyway, this only improves buying and selling prices.
• The description is misleading and uses entirely incorrect magnitudes.
• The armor rating does improve with a higher Light Armor skill and it benefits from the Custom Fit and Matching Set perks. Getting hit while wearing it may increase the Light Armor skill. It does not interfere with the Mage Armor perk.

Bugs

• There are seven different versions of the Amulet of Articulation that you can receive (and an eighth version that is NPC-specific), each with a different strength enchantment. The intent was probably for the version received to be level-dependent, but instead it is random. All seven versions are equally likely at all levels. You can get the highest one by repeatedly loading a save and talking to Brynjolf, though it may take some time.
  • PC Only This issue has been addressed by version 1.1 of the Unofficial Skyrim Patch; The progression has been corrected as follows: PC level 1/8/15/22/29/36/43.
