[@soupsandwich685]

Breton characters are also great because with a Breton you can have access to the most in game content in the most immersive way. Bretons are well known for their skill in magic but are also commonly excellent archers and most of them love adventuring and completing quest. My point is, you can run a mage, warrior and thief/rogue playthrough all in one and it will all make sense because bretons dabble in all those skills. This race in my opinion is truly a jack of all trades and that's why they are one of my favorites.

[@keenanclarke-popik8853]

I agree! I was just thinking that. I have a Breton and I couldn't really figure out what character I really am so I just call him the Jack of all Trades. I'm a Breton/vampire/archer/battlemage/assasin, and with bits of other things mixed

[@thenewseorarek9625]

Other people: see if i pick this class i get a decent boost to magic but this one gives me a better boost to swords Meanwhile i pick khajiit because i like cats

[@thomasrosendahl2783]

Altmer is stronger gameplay wise, than the Khajiit. Eso always plays with the cat from elsweyr. Could be the reason why he placed them on 3rd place instead of the Altmer. @JBoiJ

[@thomasrosendahl2783]

Altmer is best With being an offensive mage, because you can cast an infinite amount of spells once a day with the highborn ability. If you want a more solid defense, take Breton with magic resistance and spell absorption once a day. @JBoiJ

[@jaredelizardo1068]

I like them too bro I have one my self

[@2cheetahseatingapumpkin502]

Thomas Rosendahl Fuck mage builds. Not to mention you can easily replicate the highborn ability with a Magicka regeneration potion or enchantment.

[@cringebutyee1326]

Dark Knight you can't easily replicate highborn, especially early on

[@shrooman768]

I'd say that the Breton is an incredible choice. Mostly due to the fact that the Breton can easily have 50% resistance to magicka. Its racial bonus is already 25%, while the lord stone gives you another 25%. 25 and 25 obviously adds up to 50. Apart from that, the dragonskin ability is great.

[@Brizzle427]

Also use alteration to get +30 and do the quest in the temple of mara for another +15

[@rhett6946]

@@Brizzle427 late reply, but you only need to get to 85% resistance (since that is the max) and not get the final alteration Magic Resist Perk.

[@alejandroyava]

Can't you replicate the same bonuses with Atronach Stone plus some enchantments?

[@rhett6946]

@@alejandroyava you can, but Bretons come with it naturally and their dragonskin power allows magic absorption to stack to 100% with them, making them effectively immune to magic damage for 30 secs. Also, magic absorption and magic resistance are different.

[@alejandroyava]

I think one of the guides even stated that Balgruuf's reputation as the embodiment of a true Nord and his allegiance to the Empire has convinced a lot of other Nords to turn away from Ulfric. I've never really understood why so many people seem to think that if you play as a Nord, you MUST join the Stormcloaks considering how many Nords we see in the game who are against them.

@@jakegrant7663 You can also enchant gloves and rings with the Fortify Unarmed enchantment which you can get from the Gloves Of The Pugilist. Also, using the gloves at the start of the game, you can do MUCH more damage than ALL other weapons and magic (Even without the gloves). Plus, the perk in the Heavy Armor tree boosts your unarmed damage when you are using heavy armor gauntlets (Which unfortunaly doesn't increase if you upgrade the gloves), so with the perk, the enchantment on it and on the ring, you can make a solid Pugilist build. Of course One Handed and Two Handed builds are better once you progress in the game. But Unarmed sounds fun, and is not impossible to use with Khajit or Argonians (Even with other races, 'cause of the unarmed boosts that are avaiable; they will be awfully bad in the early/mid game tho).

[@doctorstrain420]

Two reasons why I’m liking this video you gave helpful information and you have an accent

[@doctorstrain420]

Thank you

[@StyxTBuferd]

Here's how I'd honestly rank them: 1. Orc. Their greater power breaks the game, no question. You can abuse their power with assassin builds to get 6x bow damage, or (with the dark brotherhood gloves) a whopping 60x dagger damage. By far the best greater power in the game- doesn't matter if it can only be used once a day, it lets you one shot everything. Also works wonders when combined with elemental fury + dual wield. Really the best choice for warriors and assassins alike. 2. Altmer. The only race that gets five levels in something. Those extra 5 levels in Magicka can be spent elsewhere to give you a build that has a nice boost to magic that other builds wouldn't, or it can be used to keep a Magicka lead no other race can hope to match. This allows them to use multiple schools of magic effectively (since you have a limited number of fortify school enchantments) and makes them the best choice for Mages. Their greater power is okay as well, but not fantastic if you use potions. Highest potential of any mage. 3. Breton. Their greater power is the second best in the game, allowing them to severely turn the tide in any magic fight. Their passive is also a nice resistance that can stack well with other sources without the need of much enchanting to reach 85% resist. Though they have a lower potential than their high elf counterparts, their defensive capabilities make them easier to play. 4. Nord. 50% frost resistance is insane, and an early game Fear spell is fine enough- certainly adaptable. 5. Dunmer. 50% fire resistance is insane, though their greater power is only useful for certain character types. Ranged characters will never take advantage of it, but it is a solid DPS boost to melee characters. 6. Redguard. 50% poison resistance should not be ignored. This is actually insanely useful against Falmer who dish out TONS of poison damage, as do Charus who are frequently found with them. The stamina regen ability is also nice for sustained power attacks. One of the better choices for a warrior dps class. 7. Bosmer. Again, 50% poison resistance is actually very good. 50% disease resistance is negligible, but convenient enough. Their greater power is fine if you don't want to seek out the animal allegiance shout, and is at least very flavorful. Their starting bonuses are actually worth noting since they can perk into Archery twice before perking into anything else, meaning you can start the game with pretty high bow damage. 8. Argonian. I love Argonians so much, but all of their abilities are fairly minor convenience perks. Waterbreathing is enjoyable just for the sheer freedom it provides, but potions or enchanting can easily grant you waterbreathing (enchant a hat of water breathing for extra confusion). 50% disease resistance is negligible. The best thing about them is their greater power which is insanely helpful in the early game against particularly tough enemies or crowds, and especially if you choose not to invest in alchemy. The slightly higher unarmed damage is useless since Khajiit exist. 9. Khajiit. My favorite race, but by far the most narrow. The night eye ability really should be a passive that you can turn on or off instead of a power that you have to keep recasting- it's inconsequential in a game as bright as Skyrim.I never feel the need to use it even on low light settings. The claws ability is powerful, but narrow. Khajiit are the only choice for an unarmed build, as the extra DPS lost for not picking Khajiit is insane (17 damage loss compared to most races, 12 when compared to Argonians). In this one area the Khajiit excel, and they excel in a way no other race can ever hope to- but if you're looking to make any other kind of build, avoid the Khajiit. 10. Imperial. What do these guys even do? 2-10 extra gold from time to time is negligible, even in the early game where you would theoretically use the gold to snowball into better equipment early. It's just a non-ability. Voice of the Emperor is an early game Calm spell, which is.... fine? It's not bad, certainly, but it's not particularly interesting and it's fairly useless later on. Overall, I'd say unless unless you plan on using Breton, Altmer, or Orc, it's not worth caring too much about the individual racial passives and powers. They're all fairly minor compared to how you allocate perks and how you allocate magicka, health, and stamina.

[@deyemonds2911]

The manly cat at 9? Are you joking? You obviously haven't seen ESO's unarmed build.

[@StyxTBuferd]

Deyemonds to the contrary Ive done an entire playthrough with unarmed. And yeah, it’s enjoyable and Khajiit do have that one area where they excel, but let’s be honest- unarmed is mostly a joke. To even make it viable on higher difficulties you’re basically required to exploit alchemy and enchanting to get unarmed damage up, and any build where that’s 100% necessary is not one that’s going to be as fun to play. Again, I adore the Khajiit. My favorite race, with the coolest culture and the most interesting characters- every ES game, for me, will always start with me trying Khajiit. But they are absolutely outclassed in almost any way that matters in Skyrim.

[@Vincrand]

@@StyxTBuferd Any race gan get 100% spell absorption with vampire + necromage perk. This makes the character 100% resist to all magic, diseases and poisons. With this in mind the Nord, Dunmer, Bosmer, Breton and Redguard have nothing going for them, making them as bad as Imperial. Actives are in my opinion not something you should rely on because they can only be activated once a day (except fo Khajit). That's why I would put the Orc on the 4th place (having the shared best daily active in the game with Altmer). I agree with your descriptions of the other 3, so I would say Altmer are best (although I never use them). Because I use the realistic lightning mod my caves and nights are very dark. So for me the night eye ability is very useful until I get vampire's sight which does the same. On legendary unarmed fights are though so I would rate Khajit slightly above Argonian. Even if you don't plan the build around unarmed fights you still have to do a couple in quests or to unlock a follower.

[@StyxTBuferd]

@@Vincrand Didn't we already have a comment chain about this? You're talking about situational passives vs situational passives. Unarmed as a main combat style is way worse than almost anything else in the game. There are maybe 2 followers and 1 quest that require unarmed fights, at which point I'd argue the Orc daily power trumps it anyway. It's also not easy to get 100% spell absorption and necromage only works if you don't have the Unofficial Patch (and if you're playing on PC, you should).

Archangel Unturned it's rly not that OP, it's bigged up by a lot of people and is quite strong but not even that great

[@mlevis05]

It is important to not that magic resist and magic absorb actually are 2 completely different stats. While you would think 50% magic absorb is basically 50% magic resist with a bonus there is actually more to it. Magic absorb doesn’t absorb 50% of the magicka, but rather there is a 50% chance to absorb all damage as magicka. This means that 50% of the time you take no damage. Now before you get too excited and make your Breton and spring to the atranoch stone there is one other bug to mention, that being that if your spells can cast on yourself. You will be unable to use conjuration spells at all if you have 100% magic absorb (and I think alteration has this problem too). Hope this helps someone!
