Skyrim Builds

Going to buy it soon, though im not sure if it will work on my pc :(

magic destruction isn't screwed once you're out of magica. seeing as the skill trees have a perk that halfs magika cost, plus you can dual wield and that makes the skill stronger. so usely you have the opponent killed before they drain all your magika

Hello Baggiez, how are you mate?

I build a bard with ear raping shouting :}

playing two handed warrior thingy, pretty nice but on certain bosses/monsters its just impossible to actually go up in your face bashing them so i end up using bow and arrow..

Also smithing and enchanting as main skills which is pretty cool, especially enchanting can make out some awesome stuff, having entire gear with bonus stats to the things you want is pretty cool!

Playing sneaking archer or whatever you may call it. Once in combat it kinda sux ye, think I should level up dual wield or smth for close combat, I try to not be spotted and just sneak crit all the time with my arrows though. I want to play that game but have no time! ;_; Waiting for holidays so I can nolife a bit ^,^

e: OH YEAH, IMMA FUKKIN CAT, EVER SEEN A CAT ON A HORSE, ITS FUCKIN AWESOME, MEOW

At the moment I'm playing a heavy armour/conjuration/restoration battlemage type. Decided not to get Destruction, because I'd have to drop out all my defence (resto spells) if I used it, and it's often impossible to stay alive without healing all the time.

So basically I roll around with a Bound Sword in my right hand and Healing/Ward in my left one, and summon up stuff when necessary. The bound weapons are shit nasty early-midgame, but fall off late game because you can't enchant them, so when the time comes I'm going to switch the bound sword for some enchanted sword.

2H warriors are quite murder too, because the two handed weapons do so ridicilous damage. I found playing a 1H+shield+heavy type character a pain in the butt: you'd beat melee enemies easy because you could just block everything, but mages (and dragons with their awful breath) would eat you alive because there's no real way to block magic, your 1H damage isn't enough to kill them in a hit or two, and they could kite you easily.

i hope my game arrives tomorow, i think im going for the magicka/destruction path. which race is the best pick then? night elf? and what should i do to play at best then, like tips n tricks. i havent played an elders scroll game before

I'm playing 1h with magic at my side and light armor. Using magic to heal myself or set my enemies on fire for extra damage.

The thing is, you can switch to whaterver you want during combat. You could use daggers or bows as openers following up with magic and stronger melee weapons. I have not tried a shield yet but seeing as it can block any attack, including power-attacks it seems like a valid strat if you time your blocks right. You will need to spec accordingly to block some of the magic damage that you will encounter. I'm also going to try some dual wielding in the future although my character is not specced for it.

As a mage you rely on potions. Also not that going only destruction is not very common. I think destruction if particularly strong when combined with conjuration to draw the focus away from yourself. Same goes for assasins.

I dont think melee combat is terrible at all. You don't require to have a lot of health when you are using heavy armor. Seeing as the heavy armor makes all your health multiple with a certain factor. I haven't tried 2h but I dislike it because it requires you to switch to another quickslot in order to heal yourself or use secondary skills. I generally like to build my character all-round leaving out some one-sided things like sneak attacks, use of two handed weapons, archery and conjuration.

Playing as an Argonian Assassin like i did in oblivion aswell.

Just max your archer perk and sneak (get the +sneakattack damage) and keep leveling your one-handed but dont put perks in this.

My char probably sucks for combat but the rest its just awesome, robbing houses, randomly murdering people and just walk closely and put a knife in someone's back.

Alot of fun for me atleast

i started playing as imperial and i have no idea whatthefuck

full mage with erik as merc, was pretty shitty at the beginning (playing on master-difficulty) but once you get to the +%-dmg perks your damage rises miles up. mana? not really a problem since i put only 5 levels into health (currently being lvl22) every other went into mana + arch-mage robe, morokei, enchanted mana boots/gloves.
at least works really good for me.

Playing Nord 1h warrior with shield, so far raping the shit out monsters without any major problems =) So far not much in one-handed or blocking perks yet (one-handed % extra dmg only)(Deadric 1h mace doing 90+ dmg)

Melee combat is quite easy tbh =O

First went shaman, but then when I found out Crosinor was shaman as well I rerolled, priest. Good combo with N30 as warrior tanking the shit out of SFK.

Assassin/Archer/Rogue etc.
+ Fun in cities, murdering random people, pickpocking, etc
+ Great opening in combat with crit
- awful once combat starts and no possibility to be hidden


I am playing this but if you level up archery enough you are absolute RAPE. Archery is so OP in this game if you play it correctly and get the build right. Not had an issues in combat apart from when I have to storm a fort and have ~9 imperial soldiers up in my grill.

I started a two hander warrior / destro mage hybrid just to alternate between the caster/melee playstyle whenever I wanted, going for pure damage, 0 survivability. It's pretty fun when you are not playing it on hard. I'm still level 14 though, on mage college sidequest.

edit: I'll definitely have more playthroughs, second one will be with an archer/ninja. Fuck this game is addictive.

I'm better than you anyway, don't bother writing these journals.

Wood Elf / Level 10 / Female. My hobbies are stealing and murdering people & bunnies with bows and arrows. I live to serve Sithis, the lord of the Void.

is the leveling system as messy as in oblivion? i once leveled up 20 restorations levels in a row, worst decision ever

it seems you dont use alchemie.
it is pretty much obligatory.

Mage playing without weapons, no fast travel and no armour (well boots and gaunts) and 100HP till I hit level 20, after that I'll start upping my HP. Currently building unlimited mana mage :) mostly faggoting and screwing over the AI to stay alive for now, gotta love those rocks, doors,traps and gates. Guess I need +5 more hours to get him to the point where i can spam spells for infinity :)

Nord 2h Mace Warrior - DECAPITATING SMALL SONS!! The free weapon and armour training from companions is so broken haha. I pretty much 1 or 2 shot mobs.

just play whatever you find most fun?

also dual wielding one handers is an option for rape dps

dont even know the class, its an human, main weapon = sword + magic power

started yesterday ~ 22h, till now, LOL time passed so fast :O

Got an Destruction + one hand weapon super killer, + enchanting is kewl. but mm, i dunno in my opinion magic is like shit in that game, cos it doesnt do any dmg compared to enchanted swords which have +18dmg frost dmg for example :I im lvl 18 atm, havent played in a few days tho

So, i would make a duelwield sword guy + enchanting and alchemy. it would just destroy oO

take achery , 3 shot dragons.

install dmg multiplier for every weapon mod , dont have to mess around with ugly daggers , light armor and dual wield , backpedaling and dodge

you finished the game.

also playing atm a khajiit .. doesnt go to well rpg-wise (lycanthropie , dragonborn etc) ... gonna reroll wood elf S:

Playing as redguard for only about 10 hours at the moment.

Steam Screenshots - Skyrim

I sneak the majority of the time with my bow & arrow ready. If I get dragged into a fight then my primary is to use shield & sword or maybe a two handed weapon depending on how I fancy fighting that particular battle.

Magic will be used but not for a lot of things. I like the majority of appoaches but I can't be good at all of them so may end up making a second character eventually, although I like the flame atronach and appreciate having someone to fight for you.

I think I like to damage people with my bow and then finish them with my sword generally. I definately want to become adept at stealing then selling as well, then I will be happy.

Lvl 23 High Elf chick using mostly magic with heavy armour in Expert.

High Elves have the highborn power to regain magicka way faster in critical situations.
I also use weapons.
My quick keys are:
1. Dawnbreaker one hand sword (for undead melee)
2. Magnus Staff
3. Elf bow (for long and sneaky approches)
4. Flammes (for random skweers and wolves)
5. Lightning bolts
6. Recovery spell
7. Fire Atronach (useful to take attention off you)
8. Thunder Rune (awesome in big melees)

baggiez is ugly hahah
