madcow12 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 hi alli've pretty much tried out every style a character can be in terms of fighting, from battle archer (bow+no sneak), sneak archer, one hand, 1h+shield, dual, two handbut i just cant seem to continue a mage character long enuf. i hav better magic and forgotten magic redone along with spell crafting but i just can't find myself intrigued enoughhow do other members play when playing a mage character? what kind of mods help with the immersion?
tomhjen Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I don't use any immersion mods, i don't use any mods that have redone any of the spells etc, but i still find playing my illusion / conjur mage pretty fun. It is a bit pain in the butt to get the conjur skill up, as it only levels when you cast a summoned helper, etc in combat. As for immersion i play with my own kind a rules in my head, i sleep and eat like i do in real life, i don't use any form for fast travel. If i need to cross the map i sometimes use a horse, but i find them to be more in my way then helpful. I am very sure there is good immersion mods out there but i have not been looking, i don't need them atm in my playing, however i have been thinking about using realistic needs mod, i have it, but not activated it yet :)

SomethingCrazy Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Forgive me if I'm wrong but you seem to think everyone has the same likes as you do. I myself, don't find two handed weapons/playthroughs to be much fun but really enjoy sneaking around. I've played a pure mage once or twice before as well and loved it all the same without any mods. So maybe magic just isn't your cup or tea.
