I float between Nord and one of the beast races but have also been a dark wood and woods wild in my 12 years of Skyrimming. What’s your fave and why?

Obviously I’m always a stealth archer too.

    I go argonian. Waterbreathing + Histskin means that in I can hide underwater and heal or just escape using the waterways

    Khajiit. Every time.

    Two hander berserker? Khajiit.

    Bare claws brawler? Khajiit.

    Stealth archer? Pssh, khajiit.

    Mage? Alteration? Destruction? Any mage at all? Obviously Ko’vari the khajiit :)

      Khajiit each and every time. I don’t know why. I just got a steam deck and started Skyrim after not playing a while and tried to select something else, but Khajiit was the only thing that seemed right.

      I got tired of the stealth archer, so I am trying a mage. It’s pretty fun. Hard, but fun.

        I wish there was a better way to navigate the menus. Being a mage is SO time consuming honestly. As much as I try to give alteration a stronger shot, I almost always end up going full destro because the time it takes to buff up and attack vs just going nuts is kind of annoying.

          there is/was a mod called smart cast (its not updated for SE last i checked but you can make it work for se yourself) to auto cast based on a wide range of prerequisites like entering combat, health, stamina, magika meter %, on sneak etc. Makes all the buffs and what not no hassle.

    I have a very hard time not going Breton. They’re a jack of all trades and their magic resist is hard not to pick.

    Ive played all but breton and redguard. Anymore I play as a nord or altmer. Nord cause it’s skyrim, ya know, and Altmer cause tall elf girls I guess
