Last time I played this char, I went with 2-1-2 magika-health-stamina. The fact that you regenerate magika means that you need a bit less of it, making it possible to add more stamina to crush your opponents head with a hammer!
However, if you have a hard time killing your enemies before getting surrounded, you might want to add more health since you'll be using very basic armor

Have to say this is the best and most inspired build I've come across on the whole site.
I haven't played skyrim for a while and needed something different to spark my interest again. I wanted to try an orc, but I had already done a typical melee brute, and the other builds on this site were fairly simple. There was another magic using orc build, but it seemed abit.. out of place.
With the lore, background and research gone into this one, it works like a dream. I'm definately eager to try it out, however I've got a few changes of my own:
- As I don't play on PC with hotkeys, I think the spells of 3 elements, + restoration and conjuration will mean too much menu hopping. I decided to stick with one element - fire, as it seems to fit best (I'll be looking to RP this character).
- I think I'm going to use completely different shouts. As the shaman would be one with nature, I'd like to try out that route for the first time. Plus with fire spells and the warhammer focusing on damage, these might add some more versatility. I've chosen Cyclone (this one seems perfect); Animal Allegiance; Kyne's Peace. I may also use Elemental Fury, if I choose not to enchant my weapon (unlikely). And if I decide to complete the dawnguard story (again unlikely, as I can't see a shaman wanting to fight vampires), I'll use Soul Tear and Drain Vitality. I will keep Whirlwind Sprint, as it will definately come in handy for a character with a weak armour rating.
Also with regards to smithing, is the only fast way of levelling it to uninstall the patch and make iron daggers?
Thanks for posting this build!

I'm currently using this character, I named him Shur'Tugal.... He has the stormcloak helm, saviors hide + namira's ring (Cool glitch search it), vampire gauntlets (due to the claws on it!), and the old gods boots...
