Most Fun Class?

[Heather]

What do you guys find to be the most enjoyable class? Warrior, mage, thief, or assassin? I never thought much of the thief because it sounded kinda lame, but when I tried it, I never went back to anything else. It's way too much fun. And the thieves guild questline is superb. What about you guys

The warrior is really good with investment on any difficulty.

The mage struggles as the game progresses, especially on high difficulties due to poor magic implementation

The thief makes big bucks, but can be overwhelmed in combat if he hasn't already stocked up on powerful potions, poisons and bought powerful enchanted weapons and skill training.

The assassin is unstoppable in the later stages of the game, essentially breaking the game once you get to a certain point, such as daggers do x15 (x30 total) on a sneak attack.

I have the most fun with 2 handed warriors in light armor. Good ol' stormcloak style throwdown.

xD I know in Skyrim that you can just kinda use whatever since everything simply needs to be bashed to death, but I mean if you had to use all of the skills from the combat, stealth, or magic tree

For me, the most fun class is sneaky arcane archer/conjurer, with a sneaky follower in tow. I have tried all the other playing styles, but I have always ended up dumping the character, or reverting to this style.

Very effective combo, especially when you get respite so you can repeatedly perform power attacks while healing yourself.

I agree. I usually switch between this tactic and archery combined with slow time. It depends who or what you're fighting.

If you want actual classes download something like Disparity mod. Otherwise Skyrim is a classless game system. Since magic is so easy to learn in Skyrim, you'd think everybody would cast spells of some kind and the Nords wouldn't be such snobs about it.

I prefer a mix. Sneak attacks with a paralysis/damage poisoned bow is a good start but then I want my conjoured draemora lords to tank if more join the party.

Mage is good with the impact perk and cost reduction armor while conjuration is a must for all builds at higher difficulties.

Impact is broken, and 0% destruction cost is no fun, especially combined with stagger, all battles are one-sided.

It still takes an annoying number of thunderbolts to take down a dragon. Long term smithed bows are higher damage.

I like to play a really overpowered character with mods that make the game insanely hard, so I use a hybrid of all classes.


Though I find myself using weapons way more often than magic. For me, it's simply not strong enough.

For my next playthrough, using Ordinator, and an artifact overhaul mod, I'll actually be an alchemist, poisoning people via pickpocket, and laying out poisoned bear traps, maybe some tripwires to knock enemies down and go ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with my dagger.

So... are you saying that's a good thing or a bad thing?

What velox is saying is that there's no real class system in skyrim, compared to the previous 2 games where you could either choose a premade class, or create your own, with major/minor skills, stat specializations, etc. You can easily create a build for a certain class type, but Skyrim lets you easily be master of all.
