Best unarmored/hand to hand build?

[JicamaGlizzyE]

First time trying to get into this game so I want to not use weapons anyone have any suggestions on which skills I should use

You want to save the world fighting with bare hands and being armored by rugs? Forget it fool

I don't recommend fighting hands to hands. Because even though I trained the skill to 100,when I tried fighting with Daeroth this way, when you fight against somebody by your fists, you don't damage his health like with weapon/spell attack, but first damage his stamina. And only when you knock enemy down, then you damage his health, but at least in case of Daeroth you are going to do very small damage to these enemies. Now imagine if you fight more enemies at once, then you would have much harder fight than just quickly killing them.

But if you like your fights to be very long and almost impossible, then sure, you can go to beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of your enemies.

Otherwise you should focus on fighting with either weapons, or if you are experienced enough, you can also try to focus on spells.

I'm 90% sure hand-to-hand exists solely for brawling and causing trouble. Now, if you wanted to go a Spartan-type unarmored build, THAT would be quite badass.

Unfortunately using hand to hand still ends in a fight to the death. If a hand to hand vs hand to hand fight ended after one person was knocked out then it would be a proper hand to hand fight.

So since you are always fighting to the death in this game, hand to hand is the worst possible way to do that.

Unless you intend to use the beat-rob-run maneuver. Quite fun, to be honest :)

Hand-to-hand isn't a bad minor skill, it can come in handy at certain points and add a little bit of character depth.

Maybe you'd like an unarmored/enchant/H2H build. No weapons but you can fall back on enchanted gear for harder fights. Also you can use gear with paralyze since a paralyzed target takes direct health damage from H2H as if they were knocked down.

mysticism to drain fatigue, illusion to paralyze commancd etc lol, alchemy for potions and anything else of your interest, oh! restoration to fortify stats

I think the best role to use unarmored is a mage or a monk. This is my current character:

I did a pure fistcuffs run once. The Naked Nord run. Great fun. I used MCP (Morrowind Code Patch) and turned on the strength bonus for unarmed, and I ended up really OP.
