Joshjrn Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Casting with a shield seems like I'm forfeiting an unacceptable amount of firepower. Not only can I not combine spells, but I can't get knockdowns when I do. That's a significant sacrifice. Link to comment

Wards seem insufficient being they do nothing against a ranged attack. Edited January 9, 2012 by Joshjrn Link to comment
Scott Posted January 9, 2012 Author Share Posted January 9, 2012 Are you kidding? You don't need a shield with casting. It's easy enough to do things with <40 destruction because the level is low enough, and once you get the Impact perk that basically becomes your defense. When you can stagger pretty much any enemy in the game with a dual cast spell, meh. Link to comment

Wards seem insufficient being they do nothing against a ranged attack.Restoration spells specced to restore stamina as well, along with some ___skin spells going into the fight (stone skin, ebony skin, etc). I don't bother with wards really either. Maybe if you find yourself out in the open with a Dragon rearing back to breathe fire at you but then again if that was the case I'd want to have a dual cast restoration spell charging as I was being prepared well-done.

Joshjrn Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 From what I've read, Wards are actually exceptionally effective against dragons because dragon fire is considered by the game to be a ton of small attacks as opposed to a single large attack. Link to comment
Scott Posted January 9, 2012 Author Share Posted January 9, 2012 Once you get the right build and like 75 destruction, assuming you have the right magic boosting gear, any enemy 1 on 1 had absolutely zero chance. Including dragons. It could never move because I just kept stunning it. Link to comment
Joshjrn Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Is the general consensus still to max out practically the entire enchanting perk tree? Zero magika spellcasting sounds sexy. Link to comment
