Heavy Armor Archer

Post » Tue Aug 12, 2014 5:02 pm

Okay, looking at a new character again.

Now what I'm thinking is heavy raider/archer. An elf in heavy armor using a bow, or a two-handed weapon if things go south (maybe sword and board)

For race I'm leaning towards Bosmer or Altmer.

Bosmer I get a boost to archery first off, along with some useful skill bonuses to stealth

Altmer gives me the bonus magica to make it easier to get into the bound bow style of play. But I start off with no bonuses to the skills I'll be using.

Skills:

Heavy Armor - Full tree (1 pt Juggernaut)

Archery - Full tree

Stealth - Full tree (maybe no dagger backstab bonus)

Alchemy - full tree, except experimenter

Enchanting - Full tree

Smithing - Full Tree (unlock all armors)

Altmer-

Conjuration - all weapon perks to max out bound bow effectiveness

Optional-

Restoration - all perks

One-handed / two-handed - all core perks + sword perks

Block - all perks

Yes I know early on sneaking in heavy armor is going to be tough, but with archery it'll be better since I'm not trying to pick pockets.

For thief/assassin jobs where the armor would be a detriment I'll have clothing or light armor for stealth jobs (till I get the muffle enchant)
