The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

So I finally got around to starting my game again, I had lost it when my PS3 crapped out. Finally got 100 smithing about 15 minutes ago...sooo many iron daggers. Ugh.

Now, here's my dilemma. I've been slowly accumulating ebony ingots and daedra hearts (purchasing though, since I don't have the locations where it's easier to get the materials...Alvor had 5 today for some reason, I snatched those up fast). So far I have Daedric gauntlets and boots. I know Dragonbone has slightly less armor, even at Legendary, vs Daedric, but it's obviously a lot easier to get the materials for those...and while the Daedric armor looks pretty cool and all, I actually like the way Dragon looks. Not to mention it's lighter, and I don't have the weightless perk yet.

Thoughts? I'm level 28 or 29 by the way, for reference. I'm also trying to figure out some way of leveling my heavy armor rating higher faster (already maxed speechcraft and smithing, just trying to move along). There's still a lot about this game I'm in the dark about unfortunately.

Is there any hidden benefit to using Dragonbone armor over Daedric that can't be offset by the weightless perk? I'm really trying to find reasons to make it and use it, lol.

Personally, I finished my Light Armor by getting in a fight, and dwindling down the enemies til there was one left, and physically leaving the computer for ten minutes. My health regen was fast enough, and they were weak enough, that they couldn't take my health down.

With some health regen bonuses from armor you could probably have two enemies at you with no problem.

Edit: This is on default difficulty
 
I got sick of Dragonplate and just finished a full set of Daedric lol. Though I like the Dragonplate helm better than the Daedric one...

EDIT:
So I got 100 enchanting, now I'm working on alchemy. Which is super annoying. I'm going to go on a rampage, killing all the giants I can find so I can get some friggin' toes and make higher yielding pots. Already have +100% alchemy gear, thief stone active, but it's still so friggin' slow. Ugh.

When I take a break from my main, I play Andi's profile (she never plays it, so she makes me play it...), just got 100 speech, conjuration, and alteration. In the 80s for smithing and enchanting. But killing dragons is a chore, so I need to do something about that.
