Hey guys, currently I'm working on a sort of Shaman type build based on the class in the Warcraft universe. It's a light RP build, I'm trying to keep it to the lore and do what makes sense for the role, but I'm also looking for general viability.

This build will rely heavily on destruction magic as it's main source of damage at range, alteration magic for the armor spells, conjuration for atronachs (and later on thralls), restoration for self healing, light armor (that's what I'll be wearing) and then one handed dual wielding with powerful enchants for the occasions that enemies are able to close the gap on me.


I have never played a character that has relied so heavily on magic, and I was looking cluelessly at perks like Atronach in Alteration, and Recovery in Restoration that focus on magicka conservation, wondering if I needed those or not. So just a question for you guys that have played heavy magic characters, is Magicka a problem? Do you find yourself constantly needing to drink potions and such? Should I invest in these two perks? Keep in mind that I'm already spread across 6 different perk trees and I'm trying to keep it around the level 50 soft cap, so I'm trying to save as many perk points as possible.
