That is the video, but basically this guy is playing an altmer sorceress fire staff, He has 49 points into HP, is running 5 light and 2 heavy.

His Magicka is overcharged though since he enchanted everything with magicka (I personally think that is fine, since you can easily enchant for many different thing)

How do you feel about the Overcharging mechanic so far?

Do you feel restricted, or are you glad that Min/maxing is being "regulated"?

its so in game kids feel special ..look i got 3000 magic points... but in game use is only 1900 or something... but if something attacks your magic points (spell or potion) it goes off the 3000 points.. in game combat usage is till 1900 or less.. so nothing special..

He is also a Rank5 veteran......I think that makes a whole lot of difference tbh.

i think its kinda dumb. will see a lot of this i think. it makes putting points into magicka worthless as he points out 20hp much more useful seeing as its so easy to get magicka enchants. and as theres a softcap characters who want to enchant hp wont be able to have anymore than the sorc as they hit a cap too. making most players all the same stats.

We will have to see how the current system plays out at max level.

But generally, I like that you have to think and balance your skill (attribute) point distribution a bit... depending on your personal play style and diminishing returns when overcharging, there will be an optimum (or several "sweet points"). It's just not that obvious as in other games, where everyone agrees that this class with that spec should point all points into weapon damage / crit damage / health or whatever to maximize efficiency.

I think I will like it.
