Can someone help?

I've made as many builds as I can think of, mixed it up in as many ways as I can think of, but nothing interests me enough to last more than two hours?!

My favourite style is magic, but it becomes boring quickly now..

Any good suggestions to make it more entertaining?

Thanks :)

You can always try no armor or clothing of any kind but a dragon priest mask and a staff in hand, keep a flame atronach floating along behind you, drag a dog along, and a horse, have Cicero as a follower and try to keep Esbern and Delphine to round out the party. I know if I was a guard and saw that.. I'd have to laugh. May not be the most.... entertaining.... but the stares... oh my the stares!

Thank you :) I'm trying a wood elf (my first).. I'm planning on using alchemy, conjuration for bound bow, I'll carry a dagger, and use destruction magic when they get too close for my bow?

I've never done anything like that lol

I found the WOW WIKI site to be a great source of information for build ideas,I`ve already gathered around 25 builds so far from that one site.I`d avoid the more common magic users like High Elf or Breton,and possibly go with an Orc Shamen using an axe and staff.He could be a necromancer and master of all elements.

I do someting similar if I want a new build. Researching other fantasy games and lore often gives good, original and interesting builds.

The shaman ideas cool, + the forsworn staves look shaman-y ??

I was thinking perhaps a dark lord build. Ebony armour, Ebony mace, destruction magic and high enchanting. Get some awesome rnchanted rings and perhaps a dragon priest mask and go around absolutly owning everything.

I must be easy to please. I play a Nord warrior/scout who starts out a bit of sneak and archery, then switches to sword+shield when enemies are in melee range. Not much magic is used, aside from spells like candlelight, but my Nord is flexible and I find him fun to play. I guess I just like being an adventurer, and while I enjoy the combat, I'm not too demanding with it.

Have you tried a Nightblade build? Stealth and Magic with a pinch of weapons?

Well, I don't know much about the Nightblade's lore, but the way I see it assasination isn't his main weapon of choice. The important part is applying stealth and magic to make the environment work for you, to gain an edge over your opponents before the first blow is landed. And when the battle heats up, a Nightblade fights much like a Spellsword - sword and Destruction magic.

I started with a battlemage. This might make it kind of entertaining.
