Maintenance for the week of May 4:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – May 4

Which race will your first warden be?

    Breton
    Why? Because I always intended to play my main, Menedhyn Bek, as a druidic, nature-worshipping character. In my head, he is more Nord than Breton. I'm not interested in endgame or min-max builds. I am very interested in taking him on some sort of peregrination across Tamriel and eventually into Black Marsh in search of "strange runes, odd-smelling fungi, potent herbs and to study the remarkable flora and fauna of Argonia."

    Altmer
    With Altmer having the highest buff to cold damage, anyone wanting to make an ice mage warden should go altmer master race.

    For stam animal summoners, probably redguard. The warden in the trailer was one.
    Bosmer Stamina NB
    Altmer Magicka TEMP
    Dunmer DK both stam/mag (depends what I feel like)
    Altmer Magicka NB
    Breton Magicka Sorc
    Redguard Stam Sorc

    Bosmer, Nord or altmer. Depends on passives and class skill line morphs. I hope I can make it a bosmer

    I often use the same characters in multiple games and the one who is going to be a warden is usually a half-elf, so breton is the closest I can get in TES. She's going to be a magicka warden who also uses a restro staff.

    I'm also tempted to make a second templar based on a character who was supposed to be a one-off for Dragon Age Origins and I ended up liking so much I've kept using her, but she'd have to be a red haired nord and I feel like that's a bit of a cliché.

    I'm really not certain. I would have preferred to class-change my Breton DK mule. He's only level 3, but he's got a head start on horse training and trait research.

    Since that's not an option, I'll probably delete a Khajiit Sorc mule to roll up a Warden. No clue what race yet, though.

    Nord
    Depends... if I want to make it a pve tank and the frost tree is a 'tanky' tree it will definitely be a Nord...

    Otherwise probably dunmer, altmer or Breton.

    I need to know more before I decide. Depends on what the skills and passives actually are. I'm not super excited, but I'll probably build one or two anyways, in case I change my mind later on.

    Altmer is the only race to boost ice magic damage, so that's really the only logical choice if you're going with a magwarden DPS.

    The best tank would still be an imperial.

    I cannot answer because I need to know what the class skill lines are before I can decide. We still don't know whether it will be Magicka-oriented or Stamina, and whether there will be decent morphs for each, not like the dismal Stamina morphs they give for most other Classes.

    I voted Breton because I plan to make a healer first considering it's the only other class specific healing skill line.

    I plan to make an Imperial or Redguard Dual Wield Axe Berserker Beast master type as well

    Can someone post the skill lines and passives for Wardens? It seems like everyone already knows these.

    They haven't released that info yet unfortunately

    Strange. And yet people already have their race figured out.

    yes... i do... odd thing is... that might mean my decision is not about minmaxing every skill interaction for maximum syenergy to ultimate power.

    surely it cant just be because i like argonians and think a warden argonian would be fun.

    Im not 100% decided yet, but I prob want to play a magicka warden and utilize the frost and nature spells. Its either gonna be altmer or breton in that case.

    Dont know enough about the class yet to see if it will be worth going stambuild on it, if I do im gonna go redguard or imperial. I love imperial hp and stam stats.

    I haven't decided yet either. If, by the grace of the powers that be, we get a class change token or something, I might change my Nord into a Warden. I haven't played her much (almost not at all) and, like others, Warden sounds like a great class for Nords.

    If said token is not included, I don't know if I'll reroll her and lose the only achievements she's gotten (Magnanimous; pour one out for the wasted Hissmir recipe) or if I'll just make a brand new character. If I do, I don't know if I would make another Nord, or choose a different race.

    Too many decisions!
