No rpg players in here yet? sadface.

It depends on my mood really, (since i've been playing lots of skyrim lately) i tend to go for a mix stealth/melee. i'll start off sneaking and picking off the first couple enemies, and once i'm sighted go full on attack. though i also like playing around with magery and full stealth.

I'm an RPG player. I've recently finished a game of Skyrim (well, the main storyline at least), but the character I had for that I wanted to try something different, so I went with heavy armour, and two handed weapons. For usually playing a sneaky backstabby type, there was something rather satisfying in smashing skulls in with a giant mallet.

Sometimes I put on my robe and wizard hat and cast magic missle. But im only level 2 so it only shoots one bolt. 1d4 of damage.

I usually like to put my spawning pool down as soon as possible and then make zerglings. That generally does it for me!

I think it's worth mentioning that, in games almost as much as real life, the only advantage of any kind of gun/projectile/missile is that you can kill someone from far away. in FPS games, if you're in small rooms, you're better off with a knife or a crowbar than any gun, at least until you get to a hallway and can see them coming.

Pffsst.. you should use the 'Ray of Enfeeblement' and then sick your 'Summon Monster I' extra-planar creature on them.

Ray Of Enfeeblement? I knew him - he was one of the SCA crowd who used to come to the Irish bars in Portland. Nice guy. Inoffensive.

A sword on fire. A weapon on fire is better than a weapon that is not.

[jon.kiparsky]

Unless that weapon is an ice knife.

If you believe the lore in Game of Thrones, fire is not good for swords. I don't really know anything about swords.

I prefer to seduce my opponent with skimpy outfits and suggestive comments, and then roofie them and have my way with them.

Mmm...that sounds really hot indeed...wish they made more games like that where the female warriors can be seduced and roofied

[xclite]

I was referring to the beasts - things like dragons and threshers.

I remember in Fallout: New Vegas there's a moment you can seduce the dude which shot you, have your way with him, then kill him after he falls asleep. :3 High charisma for the win!

I like charismatic sneaky characters. Either sneaking up for the kill or flirting their way out of danger.

Just downloaded the sneaky magic mod for Skyrim, testing it out is fun. >)
