SickFak Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Oh and Sick, do you find the poisoning perk to be worth it? I thought it looked cool so I grabbed it on my Thief so I could poison people via pickpocket, but the damage was very very mediocre. Granted my Alchemy was fairly low... It's only one perk, and I guess with leveled and perked (just the poison tree) alchemy it will be much more deadly... Very strong opponents like bandit leaders and such, just slip paralyze poison and claw them to death :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea if this build works at all if I stick with light armor and only use Heavy armor gloves for the Fists of Steel? It really sucks they don't have an unarmed tree because it just feels weird running around in full heavy armor to be a decent brawler. I'm disappointed in you Bethesda =\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bittermace Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 My favorite build sofar is just using 1 handed weapons but only blocking with weapons, complete storyline until you have dragonrend and your set :) I think my next build I might try using nothing but shields and enchanted pickaxes or woodcutting axes lol !

Valkeyere Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 my two fave builds; Light armour two handed weapons - kill quick die quick, makes things interestingConjuration / assassin - ONLY use bound weapons (as soon as you have the option) Nothing is cooler than skulking around a target or general enemy then conjuring in the weapon your about to kill them with. Also bound bows are bloody epic... perfect assassin weapon, and look choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jy02521671 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 One of the most fun builds I had was a 1handed/invis assassin build. The idea was to use sneak and invis to get up to your opponent, backstab them, then invis again before your opponent's friends could get you. I also had a destructionless mage build that used conjuration/archery as its main damage abilities. Basically it used atronachs and bound bow for damage.invisible is broken in this game, they can see you even if you are invisible (after you provoke them).

jy02521671 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 speaking of a fun build why not try a pacifist, the goal is not to get any murders or kills. and let your companion do the dirty work. use turn undead at early game, and use fear and paralyse late game. if you are after hella fun, try frenzy groups of enemies and watch them kill themselves. inspired by Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreakyName Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Sort of like Bittermace's one handed idea. A fencer. One handed swords, no armor or light if you must. Light on your feat and a dashing swordsman. Probably best to be a Breton just for that natural magic resistance and because it'd be funny if he was some High Rock noble on the run. Or a Redguard just lookin' to prove he's the best? Yeeeah. Fencer. Also, unarmed has kill animations. They're awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
