  I know it may cut down on originality, but frankly, there isn't much left to do. I spent the last few days working with the whole Necromage/Vampire/SpellAbsorption/GuardianCircle thing, and the only new thing I could do with it was use it with runes. Which, if I'm really honest, isn't as good as the alternative. At this point, I feel like even with all the hoops you can jump through, there isn't much left in the game to do.
  Just a thought.  less

  Just focus the core of:
  Two Handed
  Restoration(Might want to get Restoration Dual Casting)
  Heavy Armor(You can use light armor if you are ok with using some tradeskills)

  Restoration(Might want to get Restoration Dual Casting)
  Heavy Armor(You can use light armor if you are ok with using some tradeskills)
  Anything else you want. Block is actually better than you think with 2handed weapons. Archery for crossbows seems like it'd work with the RP. Tradeskills(Alchemy, Enchanting, Smithing) are, as always, the most broken skills in the game. Just do what you feel like doing, remember to avoid perks that you wont use(That one from two handed that requires a sprint), don't take anything in the weapon specific perks(There are always better alternatives), and look for The Longhammer and Volendrung in the early game, unless you are RPing, and can't do Daedric Quests for Volendrung.
  Now, the reason all of the paladin builds had 1h/spell is more or less because it's better. Being able to switch from shield to heal is a very viable tactic, and not being able to attack while healing is a pretty big loss. The basic paladin tactic is to use restoration to resto...    less

  Meant way too high at low levels. Obv not at higher ones.

  Alik'r works on master. Focus Alteration more than the others early so that you can get decently(read: Way too) high AR at low level and learn how to play the class without dying all the time.

I do know a bit about the game, certainly enough to talk about what element. Frost is fine, Aspect of Terror makes Fire a bit better IMO. Plus, there's an illusionary crowd control subtheme, and Fear from the last perk in flames fits that. Despite this, thanks for the input, I'll be sure to mention the efficacy of frost runes up close.
  The questions that stand out to me are ones revolving around augmented X and whether or not it works with Runes(I don't think it does), and how to best utilize them.  less

  Ok. I've made a build already, I'm just worried as to the viability on master. It uses runes, basically, but they aren't...good...on master. Sort of. They're like fireballs on the ground.

It uses runes, basically, but they aren't...good...on master. Sort of. They're like fireballs on the ground. But you need a lot of them to kill stuff. I'm trying to find the most efficacious manner of using them, playstyle wise.

  Hey guys, messing around with sneak-runes ATM, does anyone know of any builds that discuss the use of runes? I found Aetherblade, but I seem to remember there being more than just that. Thanks for your help!

  Easily: If you want something seriously, truly broken, check Dracolich Fiend. Not what I would do with the class, but the concept is top-notch.
