Another suggestion for the tutorial

Morgha_Kul · March 2017

I've been creating a few new characters lately, and I always like to play through the tutorial, even though I really don't NEED to. However, I also create characters with an idea how I want them to play.

One of the things the tutorial USED to do was let you choose from a few different weapons. Now, we're stuck with a 2 handed sword. If I'm creating a wizard, I would be MUCH happier with a staff. I create a ranger-type Bosmer, I'd want a bow. You get the idea.

The suggestion is simple, let us CHOOSE a weapon instead of forcing the 2 hander on us. You could have the dead churl have the 2 hander if you like, but put a rack or table nearby with some other selections: a destruction staff, a restoration staff, two one handed weapons and shield, and a bow. That would allow us to choose what we would like to play with.

You can find all types of weapons in the wailing prison, so this doesn't bother me very much.

Well, I created a character I wanted to be an archer, and wandered around and around for five days before a bow dropped. Another was supposed to be a sword and board type, but I never saw a one handed weapon. It's been 10 days and I'm STILL trying to find one.

Can't you craft a weapon, mail it to a friend, and ask them to mail it back to you? IIRC you do have access to mail in the tut?

I miss the old tutorial, if I remember right we could choose a weapon there. I never understood why it got changed.

But yeah, I agree. The tut should have all weapon types available from the start. It doesn't make sense to give new players only one weapon to choose from.
