Hello. My name is Alex, and I have used UESP as my primary source for Elder Scrolls info since 2007. My first Elder Scrolls game was Morrowind, I was about 11 years old, and because of the mechanics and sheer scale of the game, it didn't really stick with me at first. I first played Oblivion around 2007. It took me a few tries to get engrossed with the game, but once I did, I became a religious fan of the series. It was about the same time that I began to use UESP to help me with everything in the game, I also used its great Lore articles to familiarize myself with the canon of The Elder Scrolls. To this day, Oblivion is my favorite game of the series, and my favorite RPG of all time, despite its flaws. I enjoyed Skyrim when it came out, although I've only done a complete playthrough of the Main Quest, Mages Guild, and a few odds-and-ends once since 2011. It's a pretty game, and, to a certain extent, Bethesda certainly improved the cinematic qualities of Oblivion, but to me it lacked some depth from Oblivion, and it certainly lacked the engrossing depth of Morrowind. I just bought The Elder Scrolls Online a few days ago, and so far it's pretty enjoyable (Even though there are some design choices and Lore discrepancies that make me scratch my head). In between Skyrim and TESO, I've played Oblivion and Morrowind off and on again.
My recent foray into Morrowind has been somewhat successful: I made a Wood Elf marksman who I managed to get to level 5, and I even managed to do several of the quests for the main quest line.
Unfortunately, my Wood Elf is getting rather tiresome. I want to scrap him and replace him with a High Elf mage of sorts. I've been studying character creation guides for tips, and here is what I've come up with:
Race: High Elf or Dark Elf Birthsign: The Atronach Favored Attributes: Endurance and Luck Major Skills: 1. Destruction 2. Alteration 3. Heavy Armor 4. Axe or Long Blade 5. Restoration Minor Skills: 1. Speechcraft (Maybe) 2. Mysticism 3. Conjuration 4. Enchantment (Maybe) 5. Sneak or Security or Mercantile
What would you add? What would you take away? What else would you recommend? Any tips for killing Vivec? Also feel free to ask me any questions or make fun of me for liking Oblivion the best.
