Conjuration battle mage build help?

Post » Mon Dec 05, 2016 7:53 am

Hello


I just skyrim SE. I played the vanilla on xbox360 but never any dlc.


I had a few characters and tried battlemage before but never did amazingly well with it.


I was thinking of trying again, 1h sword, heavy armour, destruction and conjuration (leaning towards necromancy instead of atronachy).


I guess i would destruction magic to clear the distance then 1h attacks to finish, rely on conjured assistance as well to tank etc. I heard zombies are not amazing until the death thrall stage but maybe worth a go?



Does anyone have any expierience with this type of build.


I just need to be able to survive preferably on higher difficulty settings.

The problem in th beginning is you're limited to what you can raise, being that your raise dead spell is really weak. But luckily conjugation levels quickly so when you get to ththe adept level spell Revenent and higher, that's when it gets fun. I'm not sure if the master level spell does it or not but I know the ritual stone will raise slain giants for you.


I don't really see any issues with what you have going for you. But in th end it's your character build so there is no right or wrong way to play.

Just wandering if its worth ditching destruction and using dual wield swords, making the only magically aspect really conjuration.
