| Matt's Daily Dumb Questions: Medium Armor, combat classes. |
|
Because I know we all love segmented questions:
a) Is Orcish the best medium armor? What's the multiplier on it?
b) Also, any tips on creating a pure fighter? I tried just now, and ended up with a battlemage (d'oh) because there just aren't enough combat skills that are truly useful to round out a decent character (by my way of thinking). What race works best? Can I still take The Lady birthsign and not look like a pansy?
So that brings us to the fighter questions:
c) Is it advisable to have more than one armor type in major/minor skills? My reasoning was always that if you stick to one armor type, you'll master it a lot faster and thus be better armored anyway, but I may be wrong.
d) Ditto weapons skills... I usually try to limit myself to two, so I'm really good at them by the end, but I guess pure fighters need more. What should I go for?
e) I know this goes against the pure fighter concept, but are any of the magic/stealth skills useful to the seasoned warrior?
f) What are House Redoran's favoured skills?
g) Are the Monk or Pilgrim classes any fun? They always seemed to me to provide a very unique type of game, but I've never had the inclination to try them.
h) What factions, guilds, and Houses are best for the fighter archetype?
I'm done for today!

I started with a combo of armour weights depending on what I found, and my character had medium armour as a minor skill, but in the end I decided to go mostly with the glass armour because I could carry more stuff, and my character, being a spellsword, was a pretty tough fighter anyway - didn't need the heavier armour.
Magic is very helpful to the fighter class - again, my character, being a spellsword, is both mage and fighter, and can therefore enchant items, open locks, and generally wreak havoc as needed either with sword (enchanted, of course) or spells. Thief skills are useful for stealing and un-trapping locks.
Plus, you will run out of "fighter" skills to level up with and will find yourself branching out to get those experience points, so you'll probably end up taking on some magic and thieving skills anyway. |
