Your thoughts on Conjuration?

Post » Sat Nov 03, 2012 7:45 am

So I was going to create a breton witchhunter type character with a focus on archery, illusion, and a pinch of destuction (Mostly for runes) but most importantly i need conjuration.

The only problem is i want this character to be a true good guy, and to me conjuration seems like an evil skill. Summoning daedric weapons, undead, and daedric demons just isn't my cup of joe. (In fact if i were to use conjuration i would only use the atronach branch)

For a witchhunter conjuration is pretty much required and i really want to play as an arcane archer.

Is my thinking that conjuration is evil a misconception? Is there any other build for an arcane archer??

Mu thoughts on conjuration:

Zombies are retards.

Atronaches are lackclusters.

Evil is entirely subjective.

Except Potema. Her malevolence and megalomania was pretty cut and dry.

But if you are of that subjective type, then Conjuration in its entirety is pretty much out of the question. Playing with souls using Soul Trap, cavorting with daedra by using bound weapons or summoning atronachs, or defiling the bodies of the dead. All three are things that more narrow restrictive moralities would consider "evil".

Evil is a perspective. People are evil, not conjuration. Of course your typical Nord in Skyrim will likely not understand this but why do you care? They hate Bretons anyway.


If you feel uneasy tampering with the "dark arts" then just stick with conjuring Atronachs & bound weapons for support. Nothing inherently evil in summoning a guardian of Daedric origin.

I don't use Conjuration either. Some of my characters are naughty some of the time, but none of them choose to get in bed with daedra.
