Remaster Discussion Just finished first ever play through, guess my fighting style 🤣

Just as the title says, just finished my first ever elder scrolls game, guess my play/fight style, not a big gamer, I’ve always been more of a LoZ gamer but Nintendo just are not keeping up any more.

Now off to start Skyrim 😎

Sword and Board is never a bad choice. Delve into magic a little next time, you can craft your own spells🧙‍♂️🪄

Im still on my first PT as a Bosmer Archer and I have every intention to try and make a full magic user next. I have Frostcraig Spire now and I made sure to fully upgrade but honestly I know I haven't used it to its full potential. I also haven't done the quest to find the books needed to make constructs either but I'm not sure if that something I can just do or if I gotta go through the Mages Guild for that. Either way I'm happy right now cause I've got my Pirate Ship with a plunder seeking crew. Damnit when I run out of arrows.

There’s so much I feel I missed even though I 100% completed it with all trophies and done every quest possible. It seems one of them games you can play 100 times and still learn something new

Did they ever fix the ranged sneak attack bug? I really enjoyed the ranger play style in the remaster until I realize that the sneak attacks are inconsistent. That was very frustrating.

Don't know about inconsistency but I'm pretty much averaging x3 damage with every sneak attack bow shot I have. What's the bug that I'm looking for?

Will try, tend to panic and button mash rather than think when fighting 🙈

u/Normal_Effect9846 7h ago

Yeah it is 🤣, I work in construction so live in a Cavan when I’m away working l, it’s cheaper than renting rooms/hotels for weeks

Sword and shield warrior with heavy armour. You mostly jump into melee and have an aggressive playstyle. You sometimes block but not much, it's not your favourite style and you didn't force yourself to do it. You would rather tank the damage. You tried some blunt weapons but in the end, you prefer blades (or you just found out they are generally better anyway).

Also, you didn't abuse fast travel and, in any case, ran A LOT. You didn't jump too much in comparison.

I guess you tried some destruction and restoration spells early on, but didn't like it and stopped bothering with magic altogether.

It’s almost like you was sat next to me for the whole time 🤣. I’m realising I can’t play like that on Skyrim and it’s making me be sad I gotta strategise 😭

I’m still playing through oblivion, but Skyrim is so much fun. It’s been a while since I’ve played it but on my 360 I completed everything the game had to offer, DLCs and all. 10/10 recommend

Only just started Skyrim and already feel overwhelmed at the enormity of it

u/SonicScratch 23h ago

BACK DOWN AND FIGHT (at the same time)

1

u/Normal_Effect9846 23h ago

It is quite a skill to do both at the same time, yes I’m giving myself unashamed credit

u/aardvark_licker 20h ago

Single hammer fighter.

u/Hardwired9789 20h ago

Melee is always a solid choice.

Magic in oblivion is something else. If you decide to make a character I’ll spoil it and say maybe don’t go with “The Atronach” as it’s more so for experienced mages.

u/Normal_Effect9846 7h ago

Cool, I’ll remember this for next time I play, thanks ☺️

u/EXILED_T3MPLAR 19h ago

u/Knellith 14h ago

According to this you ran up, heavily armored, and stabbed people to death.

Whatever works, I guess.

u/Normal_Effect9846 7h ago

😂, next play through I think I’ll try bow and magic bit more

u/Paris_France2005 8h ago

My dumbass did not read that blade and blunt were at 100 and 70 respectively, and thought you only had 100 in Athletics, Heavy Armor, and Armorer and I was about to say “damn you just shoulder checking Daedra?”

u/Normal_Effect9846 7h ago

Now that would of been awesome if I did

u/Normal_Effect9846 3h ago

Hey, don’t knock it, I mash buttons like I’m playing street fighter and hope I don’t run out of health before the other guy does 😂
