What will be your play-style?

Post » Sun Nov 07, 2010 8:50 am

I personally prefer the Argonian simply because that is the race I have played as since morrowind. I also like the immunity to poison, resistance to disease, and underwater breathing. I am going to play as your basic murmillo, sword and shield fight style mixed with a good bit of destruction magika. Im curious as to whether or not it is unusual to play as a charge into battle Argonian?

Argornians aren't too bad at bum-rushing, I typically go Khajitt bow-assassin...

Probably Dunmer, with skills emphasizing stealth, bladed weapons, archery, and some arcane abilities to further improve what I do and need to do. Think of a Nightblade ;)

Nice name

Oh yeah, that's not right :shakehead:

Shortsword, enchanted robe, and the equivalent in spells of a Culture Abominator class.

I would like stealth alot more if there were brutal finishing moves. for some reason, i feel like a 10x multiplier should be a bit more theatric than a simple slash :/ hopefully, skyrim's new finishing moves will deliver that satisfaction

Gee, I never would have guessed you play a nightblade-esque character. I wonder "Y" :lmao: :)

I'm pretty much exactly what you have said except I prefer to think of the Dúnedain from Lord of the Rings. In literal meaning that makes no sense, seeing as how the character I play who I think of as such is a Dunmer. But I think of it more as their style, rather than the meaning of their name. So really just add alchemy, always wearing a sweet hood, and the Ranger label and you got me. :ninja:

Gee,haven't you ever heard of Mushroomhead!? :)

I'll probly go stealth (as I always do),with a bit of melee combat attached to it. (Blade&block) :toughninja:

EDIT: I always somehow end up with 100 Strength,Agility and Endurance... :confused:

A jack-of-all-trades dunmer. I like combining skills from magic, stealth and combat. I'm thinking of something like a battlemage with stealth elements.

Also... nice name, OP. :hubbahubba:

I'll go with stealth, for sure. I'll play a Breton assassin with skills in blade, illusion and sneak.

Why, that is exactly the same as what I play. What a coincidence. :D

A sort of cautious and prepared sort always after odds being on his side. Will use stealth and poison, traps, superior terrain/position and whatever other advantages he can get before the fight starts. And of course, always has an escape plan.

Hello kitty, Khajiit most likely.
A puuurfect rogue style character, sneak, theft, avoidence, spying and city slinking.

Or a Khajiit warrior mage build, light armour, no sneak, spells for defence and offense, backed up by a fast curved blade if possible.

I still have to see how the game plays to make a definitive choice but I will probably make an imperial with the blade+shield combo and heavy armor. I also like to use a little bit of magic, some I will also be skilled in restoration and destruction.
I might also try a warrior/thief character.Wear heavy armor and a claymore in the day, and at night, wear dark clothes and rob people blind

Normally I opt for a Custom Spellsword, but with this new news that they can't block I may go for more of a Ranger/Woodsman. Axes, Bows, hand skills like Lockpick and Alchemy. If it's possible to have no spells at all I'd be very happy. In Oblivion I felt almost forced into magic with those basic spells from the start.

Wall of iron, the immovable object, a shield, useless rock. All of those are good titles for me :D I go for massive defense, shield, alteration magic, heavy armor, restoration magic, covered head to toe in defensive enchants and trinkets, always ready at the block button, and if I can still have a weapon I take a mace for knocking my enemies off balance and if I allow myself conjuration I summon the fattest most resilient creatures rather than those that do the most damage.

The race or gender does not matter, last time I was a female Breton and in Skyrim I will be a male nord.

So basically I do little if any damage, can take hits like crazy and always seek to improve my defense further, heck my character goes to sleep only after throwing a shield spell and s/he sleeps with armor on. You could call it a little paranoid if you will, but that′s how my main characters are like.
