Recommendations for a Druid build

Post » Tue Jun 25, 2013 12:12 am

After playing with different types of characters, I want to try a druid build and roleplay this time. I can't decide between a Breton and a Bosmer, but I'm planning to focus on alteration, conjuration(only familiars of course, maybe other animals and spriggans too if I can find a good mod for that), restoration and one handed(only the ones made by natural materials though, like forsworn or falmer weapons). I couldn't decide whether to wear light armor(again, only armors made by only natural materials, like fur, forsworn ol falmer armors) or just to wear robes. Traditionally, most druids carry a staff and a sickle. While finding a staff is not a big problem, falmer axe/honed falmer axe is as close as I get to sickle-like weapon in Skyrim, so I'll probably use that(though I'm open to other ideas as well).

So these are what I thought for a druid build. And if you can recommend a mod for conjuring wild animals and spriggans(and maybe even a mod for useable spriggan bee spray, or even entangle) it'll be great for my build. I'm waiting for your ideas and recommendations.

The closest I've done was a Kynareth worshiping Bosmer who summoned various Spriggans. For actual combat he would favor the bow though.

I made the Spriggans summonable myself, but i'm sure there are mods on the Nexus that allow you to summon them(animals too) I Also recommend you give yourself the Spriggan bug spray using console commands. I can give you the command and codes if you want it.

Going to bed soon, so I'll just give the codes now in case you're interested.

player.addspell xxxxxxxx

x's are the id of the spell which are:

Spriggan spray(15 damage per second): 000a041f

Spriggan Matron Spray(25 damage per second): 001090fb

Spriggan sprays are governed by the destruction skill, but are not affected by any element perks. The level of the skill will lower the cost though.

Since I have little to no knowledge about modmaking or using the creation kit, I'll probably stick to mods for animal and spriggan summons. But thanks a lot for the spriggan spray codes.

There's nothing to it.

While in-game press the tilde key which looks like: ` (next to the number 1 key on my keyboard, should be universal) This will bring up the console menu. Very simple. Then type in:

player.addspell 000a041f

Just like that. Then press your enter key to confirm and a successful message should appear.

Then you do the same for the second spray attack's id code. Press the ` key to exit console menu.

Check your destruction spells and you should see them. Keep in mind that you can only use the Spriggan bug spray spells in your left hand though. The Matron spray in particular is quite devastating. The damage is applied for 4 seconds, for EVERY second you concentrate the spell on a target.

I posted a similar thread a few months ago. The suggestions in there might help you.

Unless you're thinking of a Celtic druid. My thread was more about D&D Druids.
