The best combination that I've found for a close-up assassin type character (NOT one handed or archery, just daggers) is:
1.Cicero's Hat w/ 35% sneak ( I say this because you cant put a custom enchantment for sneak on headgear yourself, just specialty)
2. Cicero's gloves (Or any kind of glove that doubles sneak attack damage for one-handed)
3. Ebony Mail (I am a lvl 81 and none of the custom enchantments for a chestpiece are very enticing, so I went with this. If you are a lower level sneak character, I woudn't recommend it because its heavy armor, but at my lvl it doesn't make a difference. I have every single perk in the Sneak perk tree, all upgraded.)
4. Dragonscale boots w/ 45% one-handed and 45% sneak (If you can get it higher than 45 then all the better, but thats what i got to with my 27% alchemy gear)
5. Necklace w/ 45% one-handed and 45% sneak (The daggers are not effected by one-handed enchants except for the sneak attack double damage gloves, so you can replace the one-handed enchant with something like a bow enchant if you want. The sneak is the key part. This is assuming you can put two enchants on a weapon in the first place. If you can't, just get sneak enchant.)
6. Ring w/ 45% one-handed and 45% sneak. (Remember, it doesnt have to be one-handed. Sneak is all that matters.)
And that's pretty much it. This will probably only work for high lvl characters because of the heavy armor. You need to upgrade your sneak a little bit to feel comfortable in heavy armor in sneak mode. But with the armor's "move quieter" ability, the "muffle" ability from the sneak perk tree, and 5/5 sneak skill, it will feel like your walkin naked. None the less, this is really the best (or should I say, my favorite) armor set. Hope you enjoyed, and share some of yours! It might give me new ideas!
