Melee Combat Playthrough

Post » Sun Apr 20, 2014 9:12 am

Never played a Melee character before, so just wanted a few questions.

Is Light Armour viable for an Expert playthrough without using any exploits (With 1H + Shield)

And

I'm into Roleplaying characters, so what kinda roleplay could I do with a 1h + Shield character?

Thanks guys :D

You can reach the Armour cap without exploits for all armours except for fur, hide, studded, iron and leather.

You could do the Companions.

Light armor is very viable, i have played mages with robes on master, light armor should be a step above this,

Anyway rp, hmm, do you have a particular preferance to the civil war, and also name your fav 1h weapon, and what is your view on armor, do you like to make your own?

Edit: perhaps be a type of bandit, planning assults?

I wanna try to stay away from Guild Quests - I usually complete them and then stop the character.

And I don't particularly have a favorite 1h weapon :/ I have no idea what a melee character would do other than diving dungeons.

Again i say banditry, ok, for some other ideas, i still would like to know your preference imperial to stormcloak, your view on crafting, with this i can help develop a background and class specifications, and how about most used weapon, bwcause i can develop variations, do yous fastest, weakest or strongest and slowest, or in between, i am just trying to help.

Edit: you dont necessarily have to do civil war, but your preferance could help mold your background

Hmm probably Imperial - I may go with an Orc. Crafting's fine I suppose, not enchanting though.

Most used weapon? hmmm well i've got SkyRe so there are literally tons. I tend to stick with Swords though. Bandit playthrough... I like that - especially since I have Alternative Start, however I just dunno what I could do as a Bandit

You could pillage towns, and since you are imperial preferance, try to only attack stormcloak controlled providences
But keep in mind, you are a bandit, anything goes really, as for orc and sword, lets say you have great favor from Malacath, and you were once a chieftan, but you killed your strongholds medicine woman, and was cast out, but you cling to the thing that made you strong, swords, after you were cast out, you soon found you would have to learn ceafting, since you were no longer privileged, but you were low on gold aswell, so you turmed to banditry, i believe there is a mod that increases the number of followers you can have, so you can make your own bandit party.
