Elyrius said: This is really vague, but I'm kinda frustrated, I need a build that can get me back into the game, I'm in this loop at the minute of restarting and restarting, I'm just boring myself, I like builds that can do most quests in the game. I'm not a big fan of crafting (especially alchemy), I also am not very good at playing as vamps due to the silly regen stuff. I like most of the combat styles, but would love to try something new. I've played a hella lot of builds, unfortunately a lot of them didn't make it far like I've said. Something likely to survive up to level 50 at least with myself would be great, I've never got a build to that level and I've owned Skyrim since launch! Mods aren't really an option for me.
Just as the others said, RP does wonders. When I first got Skyrim I played as a warrior, a thief, a mage, then did warrior again and was pretty much done with Skyrim. Then I found this site and RP, and things changed significantly for me ;D
But I also understand the importance of finding mechanics/concepts that are new to you as well. With that in mind, might I suggest:
The Vancian Wizard--only uses greater powers, as a type of spellbook. This means anything in a dungeon delve that you use on the little guys is something you won't have at your disposal against bosses at the end. It's a a pretty boss concept, and completey changes the way you play the game.
The Hedge Mage--sort of the same concept, except you can only use spells from spellbooks you find adventuring. No College and no merchants.
The Transient Sorcerer--with the exception of Alteration, this build uses Novice level spells exclusively. It's a run-n-gun mage with some really cool special moves (which is a bit odd considering you are using mostly Novice spells). I played this one... twice.
It's morning, so my brain won't let me push past mage builds right now. Perhaps I'll come up with other genres during lunch xD
