I am currently level 20, and have currently put every level up point in Magicka. I have been wondering, should I start putting level up points in Health, or no?

bump

I'm sure glad I did, at least. Even if you take out most enemies pretty quickly from a distance, sooner or later you'll find yourself in a room full of frost mages and you'll wish you could take a few extra hits.

EDIT: Is it really necessary to bump a topic four minutes after you created it?

Depends on how much dying and reloading bugs you and what difficulty you play at.

I think its necessary to put points in health as a mage. Im wearing heavy armor and I put most points into magic but some into health for survivablity.

Even so you are still one hitted every so often especially by those big two handed weilding enemies.

K well, Im 22 now, so I guess I'll just put the next points into health until 30

I found that on my pure Mage 2 points to Magicka, 1 to Health was a good formula for success.

Yes mages are fragile characters level up your health slowly. If not you will have a lot of trouble with enemies.

on master leveling to 20 without getting extra health means most stuff will one shot you
unless you are a battle mage, or use conjuring alot, even so magic and poisons can one shot you... so yeah... get health if you play on master, dunno about lower settings.

i want my health and stamina both to be at 190 and the rest i put into magicka.

Yes, put points into health. If you decide to level enchanting, you can make several schools of magic 100% free to cast without exploiting anything. Do that for the major schools you use, and suddenly you have a minimal magicka requirement, as it would only be used for what few spells you use outside of your main two schools. At that point, health is far more important. I'm level 38 on Master difficulty with my mage, and I'm definitely glad I have almost 300 health. If I could, I'd take a hundred out of my magicka and add it to health. Had I known that you could later cast infinite fireballs, I wouldn't have dumped so many points into magicka.

lvl 32 pure mage. I've been alternating health and magika very level. I have no trouble casting and taking hits almost every situation.

Arch mage robe and Morokai(spelling?) make magica regen not such a big issue. Potions balance it out. I've found rthat extra health to be super important when facing a Draugr deathlord or whatever they're called, they can one hit you if you're not careful.

If you level up enchanting to 100 , magicka will be 100% useless as you'd be able to cast everything for 0 magicka lol

Plus you do need to be able to take hits , so yes put at least some HP on the way up
