endgamecutter Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 or...atleast I think its take three...take four maybe?... whatever, three sounds better Anyway, this is the third time I've picked up oblivion, so I figure its time I try something different than the classic heavy armored warrior. I'm tired of only using blade, block, heavy armor and armorer whenever I play, so I ask you, what character types have you found fun to play? What skills did you use, why, and any tips you'd suggest for that role. Thanks in advance...and if theres a certain mod or two you used to make the experience entirely different (i'm talking about deadly reflex or midas magic, not dual wield or a cool suit of armor) Please mention it.

GETbacon Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I have Two Class I like to play as: A wood elf Thief blade sneak athletics acrobatics alchemy illusion born under the sign of the Thief (Just the basics). And a high elf wizard (favorite class, also really over powered in OOO) block destruction conjuration alchemy athletics restoration also, I think (not so good memory) alteration I liked playing with the thief until the quick travail stopped working And polished off the shivering Isles with the mage. Hopes it helps :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endgamecutter Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Alright, I just need 2 more skills, character is a battlemage (more mage than battle, swords just for show/spell resistant targets). What magics would you recommend? so far I have destruction and restoration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Brasher Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I think it is easiest to be a battle-mage or spellsword. I have tried to play a few other ways though: A mage who thinks weapons are not cool. A true mage would only use magic and never actually touch enemies. You wouldn't want blood or dirt on you! A battle-mage who caught phorpyric hemophilia in the first dungeon he ever raided. He was already a vampire by the time he rescued Martin. But he was a character with a good alignment, and felt bad about being a vampire. (I played with a rule that vampirism was incurable.) He then completed the main quest as a vampire. It was hard when he had to talk to people who were only available during the day. A barbarian who hates crowds and cities. Hardly ever went to town to sell loot. Made piles of it in caves. Would not spend the night in town. A warrior who is allergic to magic. He will use restoration spells, but no other spells. He will not use enchanted weapons, jewelry, or armor. He will not engage in alchemy, although he will drink potions. (About the hardest character I ever played.) A nightblade who is a cleptomanic and went straight to the Shivering Isles before he had a chance to buy a lot of spells or equipment. He went to the Shivering Isles and has never returned. A spellsword who lives in Bravil and doesn't want to travel to distant places, so he has visited every single location on that part of the map.
