Magic. Any and all magic.
If I am not nigh-encumbered with food and potions, I'm going to die. Unless it's a dragon; as soon as they land on the ground, they fall to my mighty warhammer.

My characters greatest weakness is melee combat... So i fight in melee combat while wearing a thalmor coat... That has an armor rating of 0 if im not mistaken.
Oh and i use a Blades sword in my main hand and a summoned sword as my secondary.

Large groups of clustered mages.
I play a sneaky archer/melee tank, so fighters, archers, and individual mages pose little threat.
But I have paltry magic resistance, so if I can only kill one mage from stealth before the rest find me I'm screwed unless I chug all my potions to resist as many sources of magic damage as possible.

Hassan of Kvatch must steal ALL THE THINGS.

Other than that? Eh, probably that if I can't one-hit-kill thanks to my sneak attack bonus, I'm usually boned. Once you start sneaking, you can't go back. Not safely, at any rate.

Pansy-ass ice mages who backpeddle and spam Ice Spike en-masse when they see the frightening Nord in Blades armor charging at them, Legendary Ebony Swords held high. Surprisingly, though, a gang of Falmer Shadowmasters can also kick my ass so I have to re-evaluate my gameplay before Alduin

My Breton mage seems capable of killing everything, to be honest. Although I have a really hard time with sabrecats, they're just so damn fast!

Magic users (particularly fire-users) that I can't get in close to within several seconds. They can ravage me.

Also, silver weapons.

The night.
Being a mage trying to kill stuff when you can't see it is a hard since you're completely ranged focused and the damage on close moves is terrible at high levels, it's made me consider making a Khajiit.

Apart from that small areas and being surprised. I one hit most enemies but I go down in 3 hits. So i have to plan out attacks to avoid getting hit and constantly kite but my slow down time shout makes that much easier. I'm a glass cannon pretty much.

On my warrior, I have very low resistance to magic, if I don't run them through before they have the chance to attack. This was improved since I got ebony armour and improved shield abilities.

On my mage, the lack of advanced spells (Can't find any :( )and getting attacked close up.

On my thief, being detected by multiple people and actually having to fight.

Procrastination. I'll see I have roughly 1/3 of my health left, and have one of those finisher animations interrupt my healing spell. That, and lightning. >.<

Running out of magicka. As long as I have a full bar of the blue stuff there's nothing I can't do but if I start to wear out and don't have any magicka potions this start sucking real fast.

Lightning magic :mad:. I can't heal myself and I can't use fireball spells either :mad:. I have to keep using potions until I kill the bastard
This. Lightning magic is a serious problem if you're trying to go all mage.

Though you also have to be careful with enemies capable of critical hits. Restoration magic isn't worth crap if you get killed in one shot.

Two handed sword wielders can give me a hard time. I recently ran into a bandit camp that must have been the broadsword book club. It took awhile to figure out what to do.

my character is cursed, at random actions (like stepping through doors) the universe will end and minutes later she will awake having lost several minutes to hours of her life and having to re-live them
