It seems very easy to gimp yourself

On weapon skills, does the rank of say 2 handers not increase the base damage of 2 handed weapons as it increases like other elder scroll games?

Melee attacks have 10% chance to restore 2 health.

Easily the most useless racial trait in the game outside of any experience increase.

You don't get it 12% extra health was enough for the whole race, its the only uncapped stat ingame.

But on top of that you get 10% stamina, what does this mean? Less enchantments spent on stamina to cap it and instead use it on magicka or even MORE health.

seriously you get a HUGE boost to the most used stats, for lousy skill points... stop bringing up other racials, even the other 2 imperial ones, these freaking 2 racials right here simply make you better.

Does it mean you'll defeat molag bal alone? take a keep alone? NO, god no, but I won't stand here and hear crap that they are balanced either, they're better, period, not OP, but not balanced and 100% sure not "underpowered"...

So, a character with additional health is not countered by a character that deals additional damage?

Oh I get it perfectly fine, you want to whinge about the preorder bonus, but thats not what this thread is about. Im sure theres about 20 other threads for that.

And the other racials are very relevant. You want to focus on the ones *you* think are not balanced when they have a pretty useless one. I'll talk about it all I want, thats what you asked for.

I was under the impression health was soft capped still, I know I hit the soft cap on it in this stress test. Either way it still means you get to likely put some magicka on your gear, or if you are magicka based you will have more stam than others. And I imagine the melee heal although you can't rely on it will be a nice bonus. I really like the imperial, but it will come down to looks, at this point it will be Nord, unless I can get the imperial to look as good or likely have to be better since Nord is so fitting for my main's style.
