Hello my fellow Dragonborns,
Vicious here and as you can see I have added yet another discussion,because they seem to be going well.
Now as you know in Skyrim there are a dozen or more ways to play and its all focuses around the cores:Mage,Theif,Warrior.
But my question is which on the following classes are OP in Skyrim?
Assassin with illusion on the side, my absolute favourite way to play and, when done right, you can avoid pretty much all damage by not being seen and do colossal damage with 15x dagger sneak attacks plus, turning invisible with a single spell at any time makes you practically untouchable :) what's not to love? :)
this will probably be unpopular but I'd have to say the most overpowered build I've used in recent memory was a Destruction/Restoration mage. At one point I had to use console commands to remove the impact perk because it completely breaks the combat system and even then I still found it stupidly overpowered. And this was without using Conjuration or Illusion for a good chunk of the playthrough.
Paralysis, turn undead and impact give you field control that no other build can even come close to touching, as long as you have enough of a magicka reserve (I put everything into Magicka and had over 800 by the endgame, plus enchantments). If you then add in Conjuration and/or Illusion then there is literally nothing that should touch you, no need to even use stealth you can just waltz into any area and brush enemies aside with little effort.
The master Destruction spells are so horribly unbalanced that it's almost a crime, undead stand no chance against a master destruction mage and everything else may take 1-2 more casts before they're obliterated. Without using Conjuration/Illusion I think the Mage style is the most overpowered, if I also include those schools then there's not even a debate in my mind.
