» Mon Apr 28, 2014 6:48 am Out of boedom I came up with this build to kill time and push the limits a tad. (I'm playing on expert with this build, seem like a happy medium)
Race: I went with Orc only because the berserker rage could come in handy in those sticky situations. Choose as you wish though.
Stats: 0 Magicka | 2 Health | 2 Stamina (I'd say go with that until you hit 200 stamina then just dump everything in health. (I'm comfortable with 200 stamina being enough though)
Standing Stone: In the beginning go with the Warrior stone to level those skills a bit then switch to either the Lord stone for the damage and magic resistance or the Atronach stone for spell absorption for those pesky mages.
Weapon: Dual wield pickaxes, yes it may be rough in the beginning without a decent enchantment but that's what this builds about! Also I went with Ancient Nordic Pickaxe just because they look more badass.
SKILLS
One Handed: Your main stat right here, I won't go into what perks you need from this tree because most of you should know. If not I may edit and add them.
Light armor: Some may argue heavy armor for this build but the need to bob and weave through enemies will be important.
Enchanting: So you can dump a ton of good enchantments on your gear like heath and one handed damge. CHAOS DAMAGE enchantment is key here, it will make this build that much more bearable, throw that on both of your pickaxes. Or if you so wish put absorb health and stamina on one. If you don't have the dragonborn dlc then go with your prefered weapon enchantment.
Alchemy: For all your potion and poison needs. You'll need to stock up on both to have the edge in a fight and a second leg to stand on when your health is low.
Restoration (optional) : If you prefer it over alchemy go for it, but you will be low on magicka unless you tweak the stats.
The rest is up to you, maybe go for some smithing for your armor and sneak if you enjoy that type of play.
HAPPY MINING! (peoples faces off)
