A bow, 2 daggers as alt and also 2 cartwheels as a tribute to Unforgotten Realms (which seems to have sadly been forgotten by most)

alright, wrong thread ik but how are they handling dual wield controls (im an xboxer so pc gamers disregard)? is it gonna be right trggr to attack with two weapons and left trggr to block (ie oblivion) or like right trggr right hand, left trggr left hand and block with both (condemned) or maybe block with clicking the corresponding stick? i think that last one would be awesome cause i dont like two weapons being mapped to one button, i think it adds immersion to have direct control over both hands (take dual wield examples from L4D and Halo, i enjoyed the latter).

I'm a total N00B to Elder Scrolls.....so I'll probably pick up the nearest stick and throw it at my enemies or sth.....

But seriously, Suggestions?
How about your two guns, your left and right arm!

Two axes. I like the feel of an axe more than a sword.

Too bad the best weapon in the game will be a sword. It's always swords. Not even interesting swords like a shamshir or falchion, just a heavily enchanted boring old longsword.

bow for ranged, short sword + dagger for melee. Magic only used for situational buffs and heals.

At least.. in theory, that's what i would use.
But in practice? Lets wait and see.

Oblivion loved magic and made it simply best in everything.
I just hope Skyrim will be reasonably balanced for the rogue/warrior/mage "builds".

I have noticed that (with the exception of Sunder in Morrowind). I think all the weapons should be basically equal.

OT: I'm going full Mel Gibson in The Patriot, a dagger and a hatchet. or if I could, and they were actually good weapons, dual spears

And here I was, thinking two shields would be unique.

But that. I want to role play as an "exploding tank" (someone who's VERY hard to kill and stands around doing area of effect spells all day).

My best friends Geoffrey and Karen.

Seriously, weapons are just for people who don't have fists. And I do.
