Let's Talk About Characters Options

[Grits]

Ever since I saw the first character gen video I've had my heart set on a pot-bellied Argonian mage with blue feathers called He-Knows. Or maybe Picks-His-Nose. Either way he will have narrow shoulders, ample thighs, and a mead gut. I haven't read enough about classes and whatnot to predict anything else.

What are your ideas? What characters have you already made?

It’s taking me forever to learn about character building. I think that Jerric is versatile enough that I could play him as anything with a ranged magic attack and a shield, but I wouldn’t bring him to ESO unless I knew he could really inhabit the world. I mean, the man needs to sleep. Funny how the oddest things can be the deal-breaker.

I also haven’t seen any talk about frost magic for players. Maybe that’s in a future expansion along with the missing player necromancy.

I think my chubby Saxhleel librarian will work as a Sorcerer. It seems that you really can play any race with any class, it’s just not discussed much due to the typical optimized/viable/PvP /min-max MMO player focus.

My first guess at Lil is Nightblade who doesn’t use blades and runs away a lot. She turns her back every time the ESO subject comes up, which is no surprise. It took her years to come to Skyrim. Illusion spells are the deal-breaker for her. Also I still don’t know how stealth works. Is it a skill tree that becomes available if you sneak, or are stealth skills tied to a class?
