FancyHorse 1,209 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 Skyrim is cast and open with many options to form up your favorite roles in the awesome world. So after playing three different play throughs as a warrior, thief, and mage the question comes. What role did you take on in the Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim? Personally I enjoyed being a thief. Sub categories can count too : Like Assassin, Mercenary, Battle Mage etc. Do stick around Darling, I could use the company~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[NULL] 907 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 I'm kind of on the fence between assassin and mage. I liked being an assassin, since I felt like a badass for outsmarting my enemies through stealth. (Also Assassin's Creed was popular at the time.) The reason why I liked playing as a mage (besides the obvious of being able to shoot fire out of my hands) is because I liked being able to fight without the need for weapons and equipment. I liked how I could have my items confiscated, and still be able to hold my own. I wasn't too big of a fan of being a warrior. Being another guy with a sword just seemed kind of generic and uninteresting to me. (Granted, that's what I was when I started out.) It just seemed like the fantasy world equivalent of being a generic grunt in every modern military shooter. Too bad I use a Mac now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vemillia Nightshade 2,247 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 Well you do realize the Warrior, Mage, and Thief are just opener stones. A class to classify yourself with till you find a better stone in the world that suits you better. Anyway, I'm more akin to the Thief stone. I love the Dark Brotherhood missions. The Thieves Guild is easier to do as far as what they offer compared to Oblivion as you use to have to do things on your own more. In Skyrim, you get missions like other factions. Meh, anyway... there is what I think. "Love and Hate are two different sides of the same coin. Both are feelings that are indescribable. One is felt often while the other is typically felt by those who cannot comprehend right from wrong." - Me "In my time as a reaper of souls, I've learned to never take anything seriously unless it means my life. Chaos and Control are forms of the life flow, nothing more. Pain and heartbreak are no different, just a flow of events." - Sadist "I know there is no use to prey, I am a demon today. We all are demons today" - Combichrist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashen Pathfinder 16,167 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 Well, my usual stance is to go warrior as I'm always wanting to go in all prepared for battle. That's what I did in my previous play through as a hardened female khajiit. Now, my current play through is different. With my alter male, I'm going mage as I want to put some emphasis on dual-weilding means & magic. That reminds me...I have a Dwemer ruin to explore...

Metemponychosis 1,263 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 I'm always norse or imperial warrior, with a greatsword and heavy armor. Though I do mess a little with magic for long range, but I can also use the bow, specially after Dawnguard came out on PS3. I LOVE Auriel's Bow. You know... The sun and all... I also use the shouts a lot. Now I need to go back and play it... https://www.fimfiction.net/user/32864/Metemponychosis For dumb, self-important fics about mythology, ponies and fascist griffons that can't figure friendship out.

Koukatsu 5,899 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 I always delve my skills first into Archery/Light Armor, and then into OHDW/Alchemy, to transition from Hunter/Sniper to Sniper/Assassin... || Ponysona || Ask Me Anything || Johari Window || Twitch || Gamer Stuff || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raritas 6,820 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 Khajiit Assassin/Thief. That's my formula. The Khajiit's are made for stealth, and I guess it ties in well with the lore, seeing as they are shunned as being troublemakers in Skyrim. I always stick with Light Armour and preferably a strong dagger and Crossbow. Keeps me light on my feet when I'm sneaking up on some guard Also, the in the Story the Dark Brotherhood doesn't have a Khajiit member... So I guess I fill that spot "Sometimes I wish I could imagine myself 10 years from now, out of college, living life without boundaries. But, at the end of the day, it's just a step closer to the future. The future tends to unfold as it should... well, at least I think it does." - Kitty0706 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Untitled Goose Q 5,138 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 I've done everything, though I think my most effective character is my Khajiit rogue/assassin, being that he one-shot Krosis with a well placed arrow.

Kyoshi Frost Wolf 42,208 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 I started out as a Warrior type person that is heavily skilled in Light Armor. As I leveled up, I became more of a Mage with maximum Light Armor and awesome double enchantments on each piece of armor. :3 So basically a Mage/Enchanter mostly now. Enchanting stuff is awesome. Redeem me into childhood. Show me myself without a shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handsome Changeling 1,852 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 I was such a Conjuration mage who also used stealth, sneak around with my two permanent Frost Thralls. I had Daedra spells but they were not permanent. I loved letting my companion Derkeethus the Argonian and my Thralls battle all in my way. Even when an enemy got close I had my Daggers to cut them up with so I was on the verge of being untouchable.

Sugar Pea 2,683 September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 Don't the stones basically just let yourself classify whom you choose to be in the game? lol Anyways, if I had to choose one it would possibly be Thief. It's really fun risking getting caught sneaking into rooms, houses, chests and shiz. My favorite hobby is going into a room where someone is asleep, and take the risk of getting caught. Sometimes, I'll go into a shop, hide, crouch, and steal whatever items I can to make profit (or essentials). Ahaha...the only time I get to play Skyrim is when i'm with my uncle...I must own it for myself soon. ℓ٥ﻻ ﻉ√٥υ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega Centauri 317 September 6, 2014 Share September 6, 2014 While I do certainly enjoy stealing things and/or sneaking around, my overall favorite playstyle was a warrior/mage hybrid, the magic system in that game is alot of fun to work with, and is very effective when combined with the brute force of a warrior. Also, a mage hood looks totally badass combined with heavy armor ...But that's just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
