Pure Marksman Character

[Dash-7]

I just made a pure marksman character, a bosmer to be exact. I'd never tried it before, but I found it extremely fun. It's pretty hard, though, unless you do it perfectly. But what's wrong with a challenge?

I made mine major in sneak, marksman, light armor, alchemy, security, athletics, and acrobatics. I think that's all of them. It's devastatingly fun. I can make a fortune just by going into an inn and taking all of their food, then make ~40 restore fatigue potions and sell them at an alchemy shop. I've found that to be more profitable (and less of a hassle) than stealing jewelry and silverware; though that doesn't hurt either.

Until now I've only used baldes or blunt, and I'd never even considered marksman before. But I figured, why not? So I gave it a shot (tee hee). The marksmanship, combined with my poisons from alchemy, is terribly fun. I just thought I'd share this revelation with everyone. Have any of you tried marksmanship?

O all of my characters in any Elderscrolls game I always have marksman as a secondary attack skill.

^sorry I meant on instead of o

[Dash-7]

I considered one in Morrowind, but it just didn't look like fun to me.

Marksman is my main combat skill. I use the enchanted Perfect Madness Bow with enchanted arrows. Alchemy is one of, if not the best way to get money at a low level. I have found myself making new accounts and having alchemy hit 100 very quickly for that same reason.

I have tried making a pure marksman account but I have not reached lvl 100 marksman on my main yet...My attributes are maxed out on that account and my bow is so strong that I don't get many hits on an enemy before it is killed. This causes me not to get very much experience for my marksman skill.

So yea, I have tried a pure, but it just didn't work too well for me. I dread doing the main quest for the 7th time.

[Dash-7]

Yeah, I tend to avoid the main quest for as long as possible.

Gets annoying when it's the 10th time you have done it. =S

[Dash-7]

Dude, it gets annoying the second time you do it; the tenth time is pure agony.

You just got to add some twists. Like when the evil guy tries to escape into paradise...you sneak up behind him where he can't move and the statue falls on him because the game thinks he already left and then he gets stuck in the wall and your xbox starts smoking and gets three flashing red lights and you try to call miscrosoft but you can't understand them because they are all indian and then when you finally get it shipped they send you a used console that already is having problems then you play Oblivion and it puts a huge circle on the disc and microsoft sends you cheap games as a "refund" which are only worth like 20 bucks max.... lol

. . . Do you want to talk about it?

I love making Marksman characters.

[Dash-7]

Me too. I believe I'll try one in Morrowind next time I play.
