![]() As stated earlier, while not as initially skilled with one-handed weapons, they come with 50% resistance to both poison and disease, making them twice as useful as the Redguards. Overall, while they are an adequate Warrior-race Build using a sword and shield, that’s about it.Īnd speaking of the Redguard’s rival, the Bosmer are only slightly more capable of an option. And while this is alright at the beginning of the game, later levels of stamina, stamina potions, its limit of once a day, and eventual magic items all make this pretty much only slightly useful during the first couple of hours before becoming entirely irrelevant. They also have the unique daily ability known as “Adrenaline Rush,” which regenerates stamina 10xs normal once a day for 60 seconds. Not only that, but the Bosmer get BOTH as racial traits, making them twice as good as the Redguard. It’s important to note that “Poison” and “Disease” Resistances are two entirely different things. In exchange for that tiny advance in One-Handed fighting, they have a pointless 50% Poison Resistance that only is useful against spider enemies. Though their combat skills are certainly nothing to sneer at, we’ve already gone over the fact that even the Bosmer can be comparable in combat with only a couple of hours of dedicated sword use. While my personal favorite, even I must admit that the Redguards are pretty much a useless character race in their abilities and traits. Keep in mind, again, that this is largely dependent on your overall build. In reality, while the skills are pretty much a non-issue, the specific racial abilities and traits are much more a factor, and it will be these that we will largely determine how each is ranked from worst to best. “So, if the initial skills don’t determine the best, what does?” While certainly there is a slight benefit in one area over the other, the spread between the worst and best skills is so small that, within only a few hours, you’ll equal out regardless of the race used. So, is the best character race determined by their initial stats? Sorry, the answer’s no. In reality, however, while this may seem super important, it doesn’t matter as you’ll pretty much level up your intended skills relatively fast anyway. ![]() This means that each race starts with their advantages and disadvantages in their skills area, each initially aligning with their more stereotypical roles (Orcs are high in combat skills but weak in Magicka while High Elves are the exact opposite). Meanwhile, a Bosmer, also known as a Wood Elf, has only “15” in One-Handed but a level “25” in Archery. For example, the Redguard, a human race originating from Hammerfell, starts with an impressive level of “25” in One-Handed but only a paltry “15” in Speech. It’s only on the harder and Legendary difficulties that those few point differences are going to matter.Īlright, with that out of the way, let’s get back to the races’ basics.Įach race comes with its unique traits, skills, and daily abilities. Playing on Normal or Easy difficulty is fairly manageable to the point that you’ll be able to do well no matter what race you pick. Before we can get into the best races in the game, we must understand who’s who and what’s what.įirst thing’s first, while I did touch on it a bit earlier, if this is your first time playing, or you’re playing on an easier difficulty level, the “Best” race is simply the one that looks coolest to you. ![]()
