So in a few days I'm planning to get the Elder Scrolls Anthology (I've only halfheartedly completed Oblivion and completed Skyrim) and I've meticulously planned my characters, so I just want to check with people who've played the games to see if there are any factors I'm missing (as well as any major notes on my character builds. Thank you so much to anyone who contributes to my Elder Scrolls experience in any way!
A lot of the factors I would like help in noting are things like guilds/organizations with extensive quests, daedric quests that would be appealing to each race/class, vampire clans, any major choices in the plot or the game (killing paarthunax or vivec, e.t.c.), really important universal things (like the levitate spell and the Boots of Blinding Speed in Morrowind), and fundamental things I may have missed (for example, do you pick a Birthsign in Daggerfall?).
So throughout the games I'm trying to build sets that incorporate the stereotypes of each race so
Altmer-Destruction mage
Argonian-Stealthy assassin
Bosmer-Archer
Breton-Alternative magic (not using destruction)
Dunmer-Combination of combat and magic
Imperial-Using blades and other basic combat staples
Khajiit-Stealthy assassin (occasionally using magic)
Nord-Alternative brute force melee fighter
Orc-Brute force melee fighter
Redguard-Skilled and tactical melee fighter (sword and shield, basic things)
Arena: From what I could tell the only thing you choose here is your class (and you don't customize it?)
Altmer-Battle Mage
Argonian-Assassin
Bosmer-Archer
Breton-Nightblade
Dunmer-Spellsword
Khajiit-Rogue
Nord-Barbarian
Redguard-Knight
Daggerfall: My goal here was to net a -12 score (from the special advantages/disadvantages) because I've heard that that's the cap for making leveling easier. I commonly use basic skills like the personality skills(mercantile, etiquette, streetwise), the athletic skills (running, jumping, e.t.c.) because I eventually ran out of relevant skills to the character build.
Morrowind: So I tried to add a lot of Marksman skills in here so more characters were capable of ranged attack. Also, if someone could clarify this: for the reputation granted by your position in another faction (telvanni rep dropping because you're in the mages guild), can/how can you fix this and be in both/all of the groups?
Oblivion: So a lot of the characters have personality skills (mercantile, speechcraft, e.t.c.) due to the fact that I ran out of relevant skills (ideas for replacements are welcome)
Skyrim: Since you don't have any major skills and all the skills govern leveling capability, I decided to just focus on 7 skills and then reset them to 15 to avoid having to switch my focuses.
Okay so that's it, please let me know about ANY thoughts you have on my builds, my factors for roleplaying, anything! Thank you so much!
