I started playing (again) recently, but I decided to chance gameplay style from stealth killer to Chuck Norris Warrior, so I thought: "Heavy Armor is a must, Shield for Blocking and Bashing and a One-Handed Weapon". So I created an Orc (Berserk is awesome) and I'm still in level 13, so it's not a problem to erase the character and start all over (I can't use console since I'm playing on PS3 without any DLC :'( ).

My idea of build:

-> Be a physical oriented class (Orc).

-> Use Heavy Armor (Better defense in early/mid game, since in end game HA and LA can reach protection cap).

-> Train Smithing and Enchanting (Enchanting is not a problem, but I need some help in Smithing. Which is better: hunt for Iron Ingots and craft Iron Daggers ou explore Dwemer Ruins and craft Dwemer Metal Ingots? )

-> And obviously, have a moderate niche of equipment.

So basically, my gears consist in the Wolf Armor (from the Companions, except the glove, I use a Dwemer Gauntlet that raises One Handed Attack Power in 20%) and my brand new shield, the classic Spellbreaker. As weapon, I use maces, precisely, the Mace of Molag Bal (Magicka Damage for the mages) combined with The Black Star for (almost) unlimited charge.

Well, overall my equipment is lame, but is okay since I'm low leveled. But when in mid game (level 40~50), which should my by equipment: Daedric Armor or Dragon Plate armor, since I intend to get Smithing and Enchanting to 100. For Weapons, the Mace of Molag Bal + The Black Star will be good until which level? And what weapon should I use, enchanted Daedric Mace?

For enchants, as a warrior, should I prioritize Health, Stamina and Elemental Damage Reduction, right?

Is there any specific shout? I was think in Become Ethereal for break in mid-combat and Fire Breath for offensive purposes.

I know it's a lot of things people, but I'm trying to make a real character for the first time. Thanks people

Well, I'd leave out enchanting if you're going for a pure warrior. It's just too OP and doesn't really fit with the "pure warrior" concept. I'd also stay away from Daedric or DP if you're going for a hero warrior. He'd wear something like steel plate or Nordic.

I'd go with this:

Steel plate/Nordic
Dawnguard Rune Shield
Skyforge Steel Sword

As far as smithing goes, if you want to level it up fairly quickly, the iron dagger trick won't work as well anymore, except at the beginning. One of the later official patches changed it so that the value of the item is what determines how much skill experience you get (at least I'm pretty sure that's how it works now). So between the two, go for the dwarven ingots.

Thanks for the fast answer

For a Warrior, using a Shield that drains your Stamine while you block isn't quite bad?

Hmmm we'll you could go for light armour and try to 'dance' around opponents but you'd need to be pretty skilled to do that. For a pure heavy warrior a shield is necessary unless you have a two handed weapon. The stamina it costs isn't very much.

Light Armor, kind lame for a Pure Warrior, eh XD ? I'll get the Dawnguard Shield and test it out.

Exactly my friend.

Please do, it's amazing.
