How Many Nords Are Out There?

CalmBeforeTheStorm · January 2016

I haven't met too many Nords - besides myself and my darling character, Dubhslaine - and I was just kinda wondering, how many are out there? I've met some people who aren't too fond of them, and granted it took me a while to get used to my Nord, I'm rather smitten with them. Gotta love their shortness.

Shortness? Nords are typically one of the taller races, although the sliders still let you be short. I'd have thought there would be a lot of Nords, are you in the Ebonheart Pact?

Meet my Naked Nord:
Thorwald Titanborn, Dragon Knight

Ah, true. Granted I did make my Nord a bit short. No, I'm in the Daggerfall Covenant.

@SirAndy he's beautiful!

You wanna see Nords?.... Go cap Arrius LM.

Dem Nords go nuts and start mindlessly piling onto the flag inside enemy banners.... thousands of Nords of all shapes and sizes.

I have a Nord DK tank. +30% health regen, +9% max health, and -6% incoming damage is a pretty sweet set of passives for a chubby tank.

UrQuan · January 2016

42. There are 42.

Baconlad · January 2016

I'm here, tip from a pro? Build to our strengths, be a templar max health regen 5500 buffed, max health, 45000 or better and dabble I stamina and magick recovery slot blazing shield, and "troll" to ur hearts content in pvp

Nords should have a little better passive for health or rugged cause someone in my forums stated the mitigation is after your spell or physicial resistiance.

I believe him for this so that running the reinforced trait is useless on nord tanks. If you want full mitigation build.

I have Nord tank, need little buff.

Actually_Goku · January 2016

My first VR character is a Nord Dragonknight, his name is Tayne King, I'll leave it up to you to figure out what build I went after there...

I feel like Robust is useless, tbh, because on my Nord, Tayne King, during fights, you're using mitigation skills and crowd control more than anything.

Typical PVE skill use for this character in particular - Unstoppable, Igneous Shield, Greed Dragon Blood when needed. To be truthful, in most non-dungeon or group boss fights, and VR trials, I'm very rarely ever below 50% health, so Robust never really has any time to show an effect. I feel as though Tough would have made a better racial passive, though with the already extra 9% health that comes with the Frost Resistance passive, this might be a little much. #Nordmasterrace

In PVP though, he's completely useless. I get owned by level 15 Sorcs and Nightblades. Tanking in Cyro right now is a complete waste of time.

My first main was a Nord,but he was just tooo ugly.I made a female,but she too looked horrible ingame,so I stopped. No matter how I tried,they all looked the same.My main now is a Breton NB.
(Nords always look startled)

Maotti · January 2016

I also have a female Nord sorc, also in Aldmeri.

I also got three copies of my main char, my NB is in AD, DK in DC, and Templar in EP.

Saint314Louis1985 · January 2016

My first char is a nord dk stam dps.

26k health 30k stam w/ 3800+ weap dmg and around 20k resists with volatile armor up.

Switched to dark elf sorc though and havent looked back.

LadyNalcarya · January 2016

There's a lot of them, mostly because or Skyrim fans.

I'm personally not a fan of nord stereotypes or their lore so I dont have any nord chars.
