    Okey so im thinking of making a Monster Hunter build. But i need some ideas. I allready know what factions and skills but i need race ideas and other tips lol. And what kind of armor should i use? Heavy armor or Light armor? Thanks in advance

    Tough call (especially considering you don't actually let us know what skills you're considering ;D). I think it depends most on the playstyle you envision for this build. A light-on-your-feet playstyle (Archery, one-handed, etc) almost screams for light armor. That said, you could get the same results with a heavy hitting 2-handed archer using the Steed Stone... Heavy Armor doesn't HAVE to mean tanky. Crud. I could pontificate all day and come no closer to an answer xD

    Do you have more experience with one over the other? I always lean towards the unfamiliar if given a choice--keeps the game fresh for me. 

    Or is there an armor combo you think might look cool/fits the vibe your character emanates?

    Lots of ways to approach this.

    well archery and one handed would be my call, alongside restoration and maybe alteration. almost all my builds were heavy armor so maybe il try the wandering type of mercenary that sells his service? a sort of bounty hunter?

    Like a bounty hunter that specializes in monsters/undead? 'Cause... awesome! ;D

    Bounty hunters are tons of fun to play, and if, in addition to regular bounties, you also picked up some of the more supernatural jobs as you made your way through the holds, you'd be a pretty busy hunter xD
