Alessia’s Heirs, Inheritors of Divine Grace!

As many of you know my favorite race (Bosmer) was destroyed but what you don’t know is** my second favorite by a close margin, the Imperials, were restored! Glory to Akatosh! Upon the blood of Lorkhan we rise, unbound from chains to our rightfully exalted place among the greats!

This is a welcome thread to all new Imperials! May the Divines bless you and your words!

Please, post your new Imperials, your old Imperials, your Imperial guilds, your success stories and your glorious epic tales of Imperial might in this thread!

Also, please be aware that the Imperial City will soon be much easier to access, you’ll no longer have to queue into a horse sim map and ride cross country just to be killed on the shores before your alliance entrance. I expect to see every one of you fighting to free our homeland from traitors and cultists (the pve quest is actually really good and can be completed in 4-6 hours if you stealth through it).

Imperial memes please!

Discuss the Imperial buff! (Or nerf if you think)


Imperial Changes:
Increases Experience gain in One Hand and Shield Skill Line by 15%, extra 1% Gold gain → No changes
Tough: Gain 12% Max Health → Increases your Max Health by 2000.
Conditioning: Gain 10% Max Stamina → Imperial Mettle: Increases your Max Stamina by 2000.
Red Diamond: 10% Chance on Melee Attack to heal for 6% of Max Health → When you deal Direct Damage, you restore 333 Health, Magicka, and Stamina. This effect has a 5 second cooldown. It also will reduce the cost of all abilities by 3%.
Developer Comment:
We were relatively happy with the performance of the Imperial races previously, but wanted to improve Red Diamond to stand out and be more accessible across different play styles. Now even on non-offense oriented builds, you’ll still be able to get a bit of a bonus out of it with the cost reduction. We also wanted to split the previous amount of Health over all 3 resources so all build types could engage with it, instead of being purely survival based.

Please let’s not talk about Bosmer here, they mean a lot to me and I’m trying to distract myself from it by looking for a silver lining. I don’t know if Imperials are enough to keep me with Zenimax but I’m going to try

    As I mentioned before, I too was not happy with Bosmer changes, and very upset with the current state that my magsorc characters are in (had to shelve them for now until some changes are made or I can figure something out to put them back in shape), but still the entire time I was thinking - well, at least my Imperials are workable.

    And they are, but it still bothers me that they took such a bad hit in health pool.

    Just wondering, how did you guys compensate for this? Is there a way to do it without hurting their other resource pools?

    My main is an Imperial stamblade, and although he seems to be doing fine in overland content Im not comfortable to bring him into a dungeon again until I can get his health a little bit higher, not that it was very high to begin with (most everything went into stam for him) but at least back to where it was..

    After food and Ebon a dd doesn’t need more than 19-20k imho. As a tank, seeing a dd with more than 20k health gives me anxiety that we’ll be there all day lol

    Edit: I should mention I’ve met Vulsahdaal’s stamblade and not only is Vito cute, he’s also very good dps so this isn’t meant as personal, just a general comment.

    Mine is a dw Stam sorc so I rely on the heal from dmg abilities mostly. Right now I'm bow/dw but thinking of going lightning staff after the changes to dw enchants. I think there are so many possibilities for Imperial now. They're far from op, but at least competitive outside of tank now.

    All of my Stamina characters have been Imperial from the get-go (excluding my main, who was turned from Bosmer to Imperial the moment race changes became a thing). My Magicka characters are Breton, but my headcanon is that they're all brothers from the Imperial "House Valerius of Nibenay"; their father is Imperial while their mother is Breton. Imperials all day!

    @FilteredRiddle interesting, I have an Imperial DK that I no longer play, but can’t delete because he’s done too much , named Nikola Valerius

    This is Nikola Valerius. He was a decorated soldier, but he had become disenchanted with the service. He's trying to polish up his honor these days now that he's older and has the benefit of wisdom to look back on all his past grudges.

    As someone who 90% of the time plays as an Imperial in any Elder Scrolls game and has an Imperial main, great post! :smiley:

    My Imperials salute you all. For Akatosh! Blessed be the grand chief of the nine divines. The Empire and Cyrodiil shall be great again.

    We may not be able to actually fight for The Empire, but we still fight the enemies of the Empire. All the Daedra will be banished from our glorious home of Cyrodiil!

    Just so I remained on topic you made me go and come up with a new outfit.

    2nd Era Kitty in the Legion.

    And then of course the last Skyrim image I showed was very old, so I took another of my current save.

    4th Era Kitty in the Legion.

    Y'know I may not play Imperials cause I'm a Khajiit fanatic, but I do believe Elsweyr should be an Allied Province of the Empire, and all this time I've wished you could've joined the Empire from the start.

    That’s another reason to love Imperials. They can look like the other humans in this game no problem.
    Here’s my “Redguard” who is actually an imperial that looks like my brother.
