Hello, I have a Nord Stamtemp and I want to switch her to a healer. Should I race change to an Altmer for optimal racial passives or stay a Nord? How will either choice ne impacted in Morrowind?

Thank you

    You'll be fine as a Nord - especially since the game seems to be heading more in the direction of diminishing returns - perhaps racial choices won't matter as much (they currently won't make or break characters anyway).

    If you think about it, too, that + health and damage reduction passives that Nord has will help you stay alive better. Couple that with the +8% max health you get from Structured Entropy (probably your main way of getting Major Sorcery) and your health is looking pretty sweet - might even allow you to run drinks to help with regen!

    I would wait till Morrowind drops and you see how Magplar builds are doing compared to Stamplar. You wish you had stayed as a Stamplar.

    Yes you should race change. I stopped reading at the word "Nord". They dont even make good tanks, and which is what they are designed for.

    I ran a Nord Bow/2H NB for a long time. Then switched to a khajiit, purely for Min/Max of my damage. I really hated being a *** cat. And I missed being a Nord, but I was really addicted to the min/max style of play. So I comprised and became a wood elf( who I refer to a simply as a really tiny Nord). I didn't really lose much going from kitty to wood elf.

    With that said, I feel you can make any race work for any build. But if you want to really maximize things in your build there are certain races that work the best for certain builds.
