✭✭✭✭Altmer (Race Change)Dunmer master race! But... for magicka sorc Altmer is better (bigger bonus to shock damage).0 -

✭✭Altmer (Race Change)If you want a high DPS mag-sorc, Altmer is generally best. That said, is really does depend on your build and your play style. Take a bit of time to review racial passives before you switch - you might find you want to switch back if you don't!0 -

✭✭✭Well, Altmer is better then Dunmer because it's an AD race. If you want EP character the best idea is to just delete character. EP are toxic and overpopulated.
I've had Any Race, Any Alliance since the game came out.

✭For pve dunmer and altmer are on a mag sorc about the same(Maybe dunmer even better now with the buff to light attacks).
For PvP i would go with breton. (2th altmer but dunmer are also ok)
Thb i would not waste my money for a race change since dunmer are not a bad choice.

Hulda✭✭✭Altmer (Race Change)Altmer for sure because worst magsorc weakness now is really bad sustain.0

✭✭✭✭✭Altmer (Race Change)You are splitting hairs, but I believe purely based on passives, altmer is the (marginally) better choice. Dunmer is the master race of course, but that has nothing to do with racial passives. Haha0 -

✭My newest magSorc (formerly a stamSorc) is a Redguard because I want those Crowns for the Alinor Town House...
On a similar note my main, a Redguard NB, has taken up magic instead of stam because reasons.
While I might consider changing the Sorc to Altmer, I really don't want to change my Redguard. Sure, I could get her face similar to what she looks like now, but it wouldn't be identical and that's what puts me off. Not the fact that as a Redguard she'll never be 'meta'.

✭✭✭It actually depends on how much spell resist you already have, I guess. Either way the stamina (which I agree with you is more useful) is nice for rolling/blocking/etc.MythicEmperor wrote: »

When you use a race change token, it keeps your character's appearance the exact same as it is and puts you in the character creator. Take screenshots of all of the sliders before you race change and recreate the exact same character as many times as you want. That's what I did with my Dunmer because I really liked the way he lookedLadyLethalla wrote: »My newest magSorc (formerly a stamSorc) is a Redguard because I want those Crowns for the Alinor Town House...

@LadyLethalla
@Valrien So... you're effectively saying it is possible for my Redguard to become an Altmer but keep the same face...? (I assume the ears would be different.) The only toon I've changed race on so far is Khajiit to Imperial and of course she wasn't going to look the same.

Yes, technically your facial proportions will stay the same but obviously your features will change depending on race. Altmer are still going to have an altmer face, etc, but your sliders will be the same. Which means if your character's sliders happen to look nice as an Altmer too you can keep those, and you can also just screenshot them and recreate your Redguard as another character.Valrien Dravic -- Level 50 Dunmeri Sorcerer (EP)
