WARNING! - Monk = No, not in Morrowind
   

"If the enemy cannot hit you, they cannot hurt you"
"You dont need strength if you hit enemy where it hurts"
"I am Kain, I will help you"

Starting to play Morrowind I tought to myself "Here's a game filled with new stuff, new armor, weapons... And I have no clue whats best of Light/Medium/Heavy armor/weaponry in this new system"...
With that tought I decided that the only class that couldnt fail was a character that from the beginning started to focus in two skills - Hand To Hand and Unarmored... He could only be better in thoose two, and didnt need to bother about something else.

Now, in D&D style games, that idea would had worked, but sadly not in Morrowind.
There are no critical strikes in Morrowind, so you cannot walk up to an opponent, hit them where it hurts, and walk away. You need maximum amount of force to blow away the monster from the face of the earth, wich requires making as much damage as possible and survive incoming blows...

I have reached 100 in Hand To Hand combat... I cannot advance more. I cant kill in one blow, its still smacking the opponent 10-100 times in the forehead before he drops down, and then I have to strike him when he lies down to kill him.

With that reiciphy, I think I would be better off as a barbarian with a 2h axe in this game. =(

Best Regards
JemyM

Then change your character JemyM.

Det går säkert bättre då.

I'm not sure if there are criticals for hand to hand but there are for the other weapon skill, if it happens the enemy is nocked down for a second. You can also do 4x the damage if you are sneaking for your first attack. hope this helps ya some.

DZD:
I will, I have tought about a helare.

Warchild:
Hmmm, that gives me some hope...
The x4 multiplier I know off, but as you say, that also means that you must sneak, and sometimes you cannot sneak, and talking wont do it either...

Best Regards
