Class/race combo advice

WyldfireWyrm · June 2015

So I'm more into RPing than min/maxing and I'm looking for some role ideas with my favorite races. My 3 favorite races are Altmer, Khajiit, and Argonian. I also don't like Nightblade or Sorcerer (I have always sucked with stealthy classes in MMOs and the Sorc just isn't my style).

What class and role (dps, tank, healer) would you combine these three races with?

Altmer magicka Templar or dragonknight. Argonian tank templar or dragonknight.

The Altmer magicka builds are going to be the strongest. Argonian and Khajiit racials aren't as good. However, you're in to RP. So do you like the Khajiit, Argonian, or Altmer lifestyle more?

Culturally speaking, I like Khajiit the best, followed by Altmer, then Argonian. Appearance-wise, I like Khajiit, then Argonian, then Altmer. I paid the extra $20 for the deluxe edition with the Imperial race, so I kind of feel obligated to play one. LOL

I do enjoy playing the healer role.

Why do you recommend Argonians for healer or tank? Is it because of the potion passive?

I'd recommend Argonian for any tank role and Altmer for healing and dps.
Templar for heals, dps or tank and DK for dps or tank.

Choice is up to you.

Dunmer. Any class ,Any role, Stamina or magicka. Nothing you could want to do could not benefit from at least some of those passives. They will not be the best(with maybe the exception of magicka DK) but they will be good to great all around.

And then again they are dark elves so they win by default. Duh

Oh this is between Altmer, Khajiit, and Argonian.
Ok the answer is ...
Dunmer. Any class ,Any role, Stamina or magicka.

you know what's up!! Also Vampire healers get 10% more magicka and dark elf fire resist and magicka racials along with light armor is amazing. Dark elf Vampire Templar / dragon knight healers are Gods.

Ended up making a Dunmer DK healer/dps for my main because the Xbox Altmer looked terrible and there was no slider to change the issue I had with the appearance.

My alts are a Khajiit Templar healer and an Imperial Templar tank (if I don't enjoy the tanking, I will it into a stamina based dps).

I went with Khajiit Templar. Don't really know why I'm doing tho hahaha. Just going around playing my lute and having fun.

Like I do in every ES game. I will probably make a billion characters and play the tutorial over and over again. Now I kinda wanna play a more rouge like character.

I can definitely sympathize. I am incredibly indecisive and in most MMOs, I will play the first 20ish levels over and over and over again. But after screwing around with the game for the first 2 months before quitting, then screwing around for the last couple months since coming back, I really want to be serious about an endgame character.
