I started a new character and he is level 4 now. I am currently spending points on 1h, shield, and heavy armor. I was wondering if I should spend some points on smithing and enchanting because I plan on doing it a little. Or should I just stick with the 3?
I typically invest across 5-8 skills. If you fancy ranged combat from time to time invest there. If you are unsure, just play without using all your perks and wait for that moment where you say "Man, I wish I had a perk in Skill X." Then you know what to expand into.
