A Basic Summary of Your Playstyle.
I prefer being a Tank with an axe and let Lydia carry my things as I wander aimlessly killing everything in my path.

I don't have one playstyle, I've made 8 or 9 unique characters and there are more to come. In general I prefer mage characters, ranging from Sorcerers to Necromancers, Nightblades, Druids, etc. Necromancer + Vampire Lord was my favorite build.

My most recent playthrough I played a sword/shield tank on the hardest difficulty and I didn't level up any crafting skills. It was pretty hard, but I had a really good time.

I prefer 1h weapon in the right hand + good self heal in the left. And shout people down from the cliffs. :riften: And bow for the long distance sneak attacks.

I usually play a rogue/assasin type of characthe. Nothing sharpens the skills like a good backstabbing!!

When I am bored of that I will switch to a heavy armored sorceror with destruction/conjuration/block (works wonders when blocking high-damage spells).

Archery is my thing, nearest thing I can get to the crosshairs of an assault rifle on my favourite FP shooters. When not that I prefer a good backstabbing, silent and deadly.
I use Archery then immediately I go double handed melee unless some enemy starts retreating at which point I conjure an ally or use a destruction spell.

You guys have some cool ways of laying waste to enemies.

Ebony dagger and Spellbreaker is the most used set. Or different attack spells replacing the dagger.
I am a mage assassin mostly. Vampire style.

I mostly wander around aimlessly too, Sometimes having a companion, but later I skipped it.
When I am bored I simply summon a battalion of Thalmor and slauther them.

Lydia is really just following to to carry all my crap, I thought the steed stone would help but, it's just not enough for the amount of crap I have ha.

Sneak and snipe enemies from distances. It messes with the AI as they see their friend die in front of them and don't do anything about it.

lightly armored spell-sword you're practically the most diverse person ever. you can snipe with lightning bolts, set up rune-traps, conjure atronachs to distract the mage/archer while you go in close with your drain magicka sword, etc.

Balanced approach with sword and shield, once things get too hard back up and let my follower tank for awhile until I am ready to hop back in.

Full mage using all the schools of magic with a preference of fireballs, chain lighting, and duel bound swords or a bound sword + steadfast ward (which, due to a mod I have, turns wards into bound shields basically) is my playstyle on this current playthrough.

Sneaky two-hander in heavy armor. Perks for silent armor. Sword style for the crits. Mana spent on restoration or conjuration. Unrelenting Force for battle control and Whirlwind Sprint to charge down casters and archers. Werewolf for disease immunity and fun bandit killing.

Ranger. Almost exclusively use Bows/crossbows with a sword as backup. Light armor to allow me to kite better. Use atronachs up front to tank damage and occupy melee enemies while I hang back and fire from a safe distance. I also take ranged followers like Serana or the otehr Dawnguard guys with their crossbows and give them staffs of various atronachs to provide even more meatshield while my companion and I do ranged attacks.
