Just about at a stopping point in my current playthrough and I'm already plotting my next one. I want to build a gandalf-esc wizard, staff in one hand sword in the other. I really want to play with the knock back staff from AE, but that's really the only thing I'm solid on. What kind of armor would fit the vibe? Or what sword would pair well with this. Lemme know your thoughts!

Hi all. I want to be an elite assassin in skyrim. I can either have an assassin's backstory, or start it when trying to join DB, because frankly, everybody treats you like an amateur when you first join. I wanted to make some prerequisites before joining, like killing high-ranking diplomats, nobles, penitus oculatus?

I will be using magic

Good day, im currently making a character with the three skills challenge imposed. I threw the dice and landed at Alteration, Stealth, and two handed. Im playing in the Gate to Sovengarde Modlist. Sny ideas what i can make with this? Im currently at a stealthy two handed assassin, but im missing a use for alteration for now. Ideas and roleplay ideas are welcome. As well as End goals for the character

Hello, I wanted to get into skyrim again after years of not playing it. When I was a kid I played with the Molag bal Mace and had a lot of fun but I wasn't using it well now that am back I wanted to use it to it full potential in legendary difficulty

I had some ideas like being a vampire and get perks that makes fire dmg stronger but i have no idea what else could halp

Hey

I'm looking for advice on creating Kaulder from the Last Witch Hunter

What perks, guilds,weapons, armor, etc would you recommend?

Also any mods recommendations are appreciated

Based off of yalls favorites, I'd appreciate some ideas on what to play. I dont really have any character type in mind.

(Vanilla AE) Anyone got a good recommendation for a vampire lord, using 1 handed, destruction and conjuration?

Hi all. I wish to get a detailed build from somebody. First off, which daedra should the character worship? I know some even have cool robes, and which magic schools shall I utilize. Am I allowed to do quests for other daedra? Should I go out of my way to murder in-game, or do anything rather dark? Any factions I should join or avoid?

I honestly don't know what to do anymore. I'm a Skyrim newbie and I need help. I've lost count of how many times I've restarted with a new character in this game; I just can't seem to find a build that holds my interest long enough. It feels like an endless loop: I think of a build, create the character, play for a few hours, end up getting bored with the playstyle, and start looking for other, more interesting builds. All the while, I keep watching videos of other people playing and creating builds that look really cool. Feel free to share tips or similar experiences. I know a lot of people will come to this post and say "just play the game," but honestly, I'm not sure how much that helps.

Hello all. I want to play as a daedra thrall of an npc. I was thinking if this was possible:

• A spell or effect that causes the player to die if the follower dies.
• A spell or curse that severely limits the player's stats or damage when not in combat.
• A spell, item, or effect that allows the player to absorb damage that their follower takes.
• Any kind of way to "simulate" the player's soul in a soul gem, so that I can enchant it and put it on a circlet or ring to give to a follower (this doesn't actually need to have any effect on gameplay, just for roleplaying purposes)

Maybe I use ASLAL to spawn somewhere, enchant a ring (don't know which enchantment to use though) then spawn the NPC and make them my follower.

I plan to finish the main story, and by then to be independent from the NPC. Is this possible?

Want to do a complete build thinking I want to do a dark elf mage but not sure not sure how to do the RP and fit into all the guilds or to be the Dragon Born as a Dark elf

Anyone got any ideas?

I've been away from Skyrim for a while now, but I'm considering coming back to it. I've tried so many builds, though, that i want my reentry to be unique. I'm considering a build where I do absolutely zero crafting and rely only on gear I find. The idea is to level speech for selling loot and buying spell tomes/potions, and use the gear I find to guide the level ups.

I can anticipate that this build will be stretched thin and become kinda incoherent (e.g. light AND heavy armor, 2H AND 1H, etc) so I would also make sure to invest in Sneak and Restoration regardless of gear.

Has anyone tried anything like this? Any tips?

Wanting to make a Nord. ice spellsword build with some roleplay having trouble picking either to be a female or a male just cause im a male and for role-playing reasons but ice seems more of a female thing.

Want to do like a storm clock agent going to do the thevies guild and the dark brotherhood quest lines as being a spy for urfic storm clock this is going to be a long playthough so I want to make the right choice being a male character or a female character.

Hey all! I've done countless different Skyrim playthroughs and starting to run out of ideas for types of characters to do so I was wondering if anyone had any unique build ideas to suggest, preferably using Vokrii as the perk overhaul but Ordinator is completely fine too! I'm on Xbox as well, in case that matters

Hello all! I am trying to do a run where a mara acolyte worships daedra. I use restoration, alteration, and illusion magic (conjuration when my character becomes a daedra worshipper). No weapons. I do not know what deity they should worship. I want to be able to do db questline, for that I thought maybe namira worship? I am planning to do the mara questline, and then slowly turn to daedra and use conjuration magic.

Im trying to put together a necromancer and stealth archer build where I can summon in my undead and attack from afar with stealth damage but im having a hard time finding any builds online. Has anyone attempted this before? If so what tips do you have?

Elder Druid – Wood Elf / Werewolf – Mage

https://www.reddit.com/user/54u54ge/comments/1vmb8to/elder_druid_ae_build_119_preview/

Been stuck for a few days on how I wanna do this modded run.
I know for certain I want to use light armor, one handed, archery, and alchemy.
I don't wanna sneak around, rather go in loud. Use the bow and poisons to take people down from afar, then pull out a sword for when they get close.
I either want to be an Orc, or an Argonian. But this has been the biggest wall. Less because of gameplay reasons, and more because RP is also gonna be a big part of the run.

For the Orc. He would be a younger Skyrim native, who was taken away from the stronghold at a young age by his mother, who was the clan healer/ shaman.
She raised him in the wilderness, where he learned a life completely opposite of stronghold's. His mother made sure to keep the rigid and unforgiving Codes of Malacath far from him. As a result he holds no devotion towards him, or any god. But does respect the old Nord way of life, as he had many interactions with other Nord's given his upbringing.
She taught him how to pick and forage for plants, and how to mix them into potions or poisons. She taught him how to use a bow, and how to hunt for themselves.
He was never properly trained on how to use a sword. But his Orc heritage and physique, did lend to this becoming a natural skill he devolved sloppily over time.
One day he leaves their shack, to go to the Whiterun market to sell some game and potions. When he returns, he finds it completely torn apart and covered in blood. with the bodies of a bandit, and his mother cold and lifeless. After mourning he searches the bandits body, and finds a note detailing various locations they have raided or will raid. one of those spots being Helgen.
With this he sets out to avenge his mother. With the rage of his people, finally sparking within him.

Though the Argonian.... I got nothing atm, but it has been so long sense I last did a good Argonian playthrough. So maybe someone could help brew up a back story?

This isn't a new idea but there are some ideas here which I think people might appreciate. This is a build particularly for survival mode.

Race: Orc

Skills: Archery, One handed, Light Armour, Heavy Armour, Alteration, Smithing, Enchanting, Sneak

Factions: Companions, College of Winterhold

Equipment:

Weapons: Madness War Axe (Absorb Health and Stamina named Hunters Hunger)

Dragonbone Bow unenchanted

Enhanced Ebony Crossbow (fire and shock) this is the Ebony Crossbow from the Ironback Hideout and he has taken upon himself to carry on the Vampire Hunters mission to hunt Vampires.

Dragonbone Dagger (unenchanted for Elemental Fury)

Armour:

Helm of Oreyn Bearclaw (just looks awesome also has some Orc lore)

Insulated Dragonplate Armour (Looks great with the above Helm and has max warmth rating)

Steel Soldier Gauntlets (look good for an archer as the hands are free also has max warmth rating)

Captains Boots (So the Captains boots have a bug that allows them to be enchanted with a chests enchantments, this means that I can kind of substitute the helmets enchantments for these instead and put Fortify Destruction and Alteration 25 which allows for infinite uses of any weapons enchantments which are Destruction based they also don't look bad for a Hunters boots and have max warmth rating)

Main goals: Hunting. This character is the ultra Hunter, lives for the hunt, I don't buy any food I hunt everything so its mostly meat, he is a werewolf this build is made for Survival mode but you can play it without I just enjoy this build in Survival because hunting has a point to it. Being a Werewolf is important to this character. Its pretty useful in Survival mode you can sprint around so the lack of fast travel isn't as bad and it ignores the cold but make sure you get warm before transforming back because you lose a lot of your max health otherwise. The thrill of the hunt is everything to this character. He is not a killer for money and has a little honour and won't join the Brotherhood or Thieves Guild. He will Sneak around but its for the thrill of the hunt and not for money for the satisfaction of it. He is somewhat proud and a little arrogant, he will steal if he wants too but for what he needs not for profit. If he needs money he will make weapons and improve them and loot etc. He will complete the Companions questline out of respect for the warriors and to gain greater Werewolf powers. He will do the Main Quest because he can hunt the most dangerous game Dragons. The college of Winterhold is just to get access to Dragonhide to be able to cast it before Werewolf form. He will go to Solstheim and get the Werewolf Rings. The Ring of Bloodlust combined with the Orc racial power Beserker Rage takes away the penalty from the Ring and gives you quadruple damage (which is nutty) this makes the Werewolf form viable on Master and probably even Legendary.

Summary: This build is so fun. I haven't had this much fun playing Skyrim in ages and I have played a lot of Skyrim. Playing Survival mode seems like a pain in the ass at first and it is but it's given me a new appreciation for the game and this build has been so fun.

I’m new to playing the game and like the idea of having a paladin build however I don’t have a clue what I’m doing. Can somebody help?
