So I have a Nord DK as my main. I don't mind spending the crowns, but what are some thoughts on converting her to an Imperial?

    Do what you want but I see no need to change unless you just want to.

    Better racial passives.

    Unless you are a min max type of person it really is unnecessary.

    I have a nord Stam dk. I'll be changing her to redguard. I considered imperial, but since I'm planning on being a DD, the passives of imperial relative to redguard, khajit and bosmer weren't quite tempting enough. Sucks having imperial edition and no imperial character though.

    Dont change!
    Nords are cooler than imperial. They remind more orcs.

    Nords are, IMO, the "coolest" race in the game. Bunch of drunken louts spoiling for a fight. However, ZOS has saddled them with the absolute suckiest passives in the game. Well, maybe Argonians are worse.

    I considered Redguard too, but I really want to keep her fair skinned and red headed :blush:

    I love the bold red hair color that nords have. I've been wondering lately if there will be hair dyes in the Barber Shop that are not race-locked. I'd love to have bold red hair on my redguard.

    I guess that leaves khajit out of the picture. There's also bosmer. I can't recall if they had a bold red hair color.

    Just a heads up incase you don't already know...

    To get that race change you also have to have the Imperial pack... whatever they call it that allows you to play as that race. Same goes for changing your race outside of faction races, you need Explorer pack or Adventurers pack to do so.

    Have already seen a few guildies pissed off because they bought the tokens without knowing that.

    Yeah, I bought the most expensive version when the game first came out, so I have all of that. But thanks for the head's up. Hopefully it's helped someone.

    For me, my racial choices go based on what race I prefer to look at for hundreds of hours... which discounts a LOT of races. My favorites are Breton and Imperial, with Bosmer and Altmer... the rest, just no. So if I go Stamina, it's Imperial or Bosmer, for Magicka it's Breton or Altmer.
