unique archtypes

Post » Fri Jun 22, 2012 3:29 pm

have you branched off from being either a theif, warrior, or mage and created your own unique and specific playstyle? this is your time to brag about how cool and smart your charactor('s) skill set and how you like to use it.
Wether it is an existing archtype or one you added a new twist to, tell us about it!

race: argonian
main skills: one handed, sneak, heavy armor
passive skills: enchanting, smithing, archery
explaination: i use a very stealthy heavy armor charactor. i use the ebony mail, all sneak perks, and many fortify sneak enchantments to keep my charactor quiet while using all heavy armor makes my charactor just as strong as a regular warrior when fighting foes in clear sight. i dual weild 2 daedric swords bith with 302 damage -31 fire/ice damage and -20 health damage. even though i play on master dificulty, those ancient dragons still die after just a few hits.

Sneaking in heavy armor is easy with a high level sneak skill, just take your shoes off ...

Nope. It was true before, but Skyrim changed it and all parts of armor create noise now.

One of my characters is similar to yours. During the day he's an honest citizen and well-known blacksmith, at night he turns into a ruthless assassin; of course he wears heavy armor. No enchanting, no magic. Only a pair of his trusted daggers.

well i personally find it better to sneak without shoes, i assume they have the most effect on sneak, which is why you can enchant them with muffle effect

Isn't "unique archetype" by definition a contradiction in terms? A self-contained paradox? A literal impossibility?

That's your philosophy question for the day. ;)

It is indeed! I didn't even think about it when I first read this post, though.
