Just want to say how much I am enjoying my stealth assassin. From the Fallouts, Morrowind, Oblivion and Deus Ex to name a few games that I have enjoyed playing the stealth type character. Since I reached level 80 in stealth with my DB gloves and Mehrunes Dagger and doing 30x damage and just slaughtering anything in my way and loving it!! I just did my first slow mo throat slit on a necromancer and lost my mind. Everything I have been asking and hoping Bethesda would do to help with stealth and assassin play throughs they listened. I can't tell you how much I am enjoying roll playing my Artemis Entreri type character for all that know who I am talking about. So thank you Todd Howard and Bethesda!!
Can you give me some tips? I want to make a stealth character but don't really know how to. what items should I get, is there anywhere I should book it to at the begging of the game, what race should I be. Help?
I chose an Imperial because of looks but an Argonian, khajit or wood elf are probably the easiest to start. Just get your Sneak built up ad fast as you can. My One-Handed is only at 53 and Marksman at 69 but my sneak is at 85. from levels 1-10 was tough going but once I got my sneak to 70ish and joined the DB and got there armor it was easy pickings after. I also have Krosis who I one-hit sneak killed so it helps bump my stats. I became Thane of Whiterun early and took Lydia as my tank companion for when I was seen and would just let her take the beating while I sniped with my bow until level 15ish when I felt comfortable on my own
