what gameplay style do you enjoy? what weapons or spells do you find interesting? go you like being the Noble Hero, or the Shady Villin?

knowing these we can give you better suggestions to what kind of character you may enjoy..

You need to be more specific than that.

Is there a certain play style you enjoy? A certain race?

well, the only character i ever got into on the ps3, was a stealthy archer kind of thing, i only got to level 55 or so. i never really underdstood alchemy.. blacksmithing i know can be handy. but hard to get up. i enjoy almost anything. which is why i said im open to suggestions. any playstyle can be fun. i previously was a dark elf. but i dont mind any race. i guess in a way i would like to know other peoples play throughs and what worked well.

something that caught my eye yesterday, was a mage/assassin. but im unsure because the guide i saw for that character wasnt in depth in what skills to get up. like primary and secondary. (illusion for primary, and id say blacksmithing as a secondary)

Necromaner/Conjurer that Dual Wields Bound Swords. Alteration for the indirect Perks like Magic Resistance. Cost Reduction Perks in Conjuration and Alteration can mean only needing to invest into Health. Wearing Robes is viable and helps with reducing the recasting of a Flesh Spell or Bound Weapon, and Summons.

The build is very simple - One Handed, Conjuraion, and Alteration.

There is no need for Enchanting, but there will be enough Perks at higher levels to easily allow Mastery.

Smithing at all is completely optional.

Alchemy can be used to give the Bound Weapons a little more bite, but is not required.

Even played with a Staff (for a ranged attack) can help level Enchanting when the staff is recharged. Archers do not like burning to death.

Conjuration has a few unique aids in Game, like the Necromancers Amulet (even if the Amulet is not very good at lower levels with an inexperienced Dual Wielder).

this build sounds great. though im not a fan of duel wielding. could you use an online character builder to make the character online, i have a link from ign, but cant post links. resend me the completed character link via steam?

my username is T-Boner

im very keen. also suggest armour and a race? looks great. should be fun

that entirely depends you egg-brother. My two cents though, if you want to use a lot of magic, try to stay away from robes, i dont think argonians look very goodin the robes.

but here, i made this thread a couple days ago, could help you find some inspiration.

Altmer female two handed weapons no magic heavy armor. Do not craft or enchant yourself. Be a Barbarian.

There you go.
