confirm to read other chapters of this guide to find everything about all possible crafting activities.

Your choice are: one-handed weapon and a shield, two one-handed weapons or a single two-handed weapon.

My favorite choice for a warrior is a character that uses aone-headed weaponpaired with ashield.

PC

If you want a warrior that usestwo one-handed weapons, then he or she should be a redguard.

The last of the choices mentioned earlier is a warrior that uses a singletwo-handed weapon.

Aside from choosing weapons you’ll also have to plan your strategy when it comes to developing attributes.

PC

I recommend focusing on increasing health and stamina (you’ll need it for weapon power attacks).

My favorite choice for a thief/assassin is a character that eliminates its targets inclose combat.

Similar to the archetype described above, you should definitely choose a light armor.

PC

Aside from choosing weapons you’ll also have to plan your strategy when it comes to developing attributes.

I recommend focusing on health, because it’ll decrease chances of a sudden death.

It would be wise to pick a high elf for this job.

PC

Keep casting spells from this school, developing it and therefore increasing the damage inflicted by the spells.

I recommend focusing on mana, because you’re going to need tons of it.

Don’t forget about health, increasing it from time to time.

PC

The first of my recommendations is to create a character that combines styles of awarriorand amage.

The second of my recommendation is to create a character that combines styles of athiefand amage.

check that not to choose too many schools of magic.

PlayStation

A maximum of two will be more than enough.
