Would Imperial be a good race for a Magicka NB? I don't want to pay crowns to switch my race.

    I have three magblades
    Breton,altmer,dunmer
    Imperial was never an option.you will have issues with sustain compared to those three.

    In short; no. Imperial has no racial passives which benefit magicka builds unlike Dunmer or Altmer.

    imperial passives give you health, stamina and health return on melee damage

    extra stamina could help with sneaking
    extra health could help survivability, but not as much as extra magic would (all those healing damage abilities you have access too will keep you alive better)
    i dont think the melee passive would be that usefull, possibly on a sap tank, but not on a dps

    if you dont want to race change, maybe role a new character

    Personally, I'm not too fond of elves or Bretons. So I just made a magicka red guard nb.

    I do certainly wish ZoS didnt attempt tp pigeonhole races into class types.

    On the bright side, you have a good race for stamina Nightblade. I would go with that, and choose a Dunmer for Magicka NB with Duel Wield swords with fire weapon enchants.

    It will also help out with block,roll Dodge, and the occasional stamina skill you might slot like rearming trap/rapids

    Look at deltia's Saptank build!

    One of the most fun play styles in the game. And imperial would work great!

    Cheers!
