Marksman weapons are the way of choice for me. The bow you get in Ghostgate is, in my opinion the most beautiful weapon in the game. Sure other weapons look more evil, or cooler, but this weapon is amazing. Not only that but marksman just seems so much more enjoyable! What do you guys think?

marksman does have its charms

i find h2h is satisfying. especially if they are doing it too

critical hits are fun, getting a one hit kill with one is even better. its fun with marksman, dropping someone from far away. and its fun to sneak up behind someone and kill them.
kinda more tense and challenging than rushing in with a huge sword, and more satisfying

i agree, i like setting up in a tree or a rock far away from my target and letting loose with shots from my dwarven bolt rifle(mod)... its the greatest thing ever seeing them run away like little girls...


using a onehanded longsword always tends to look like the scene in monty python and the holy grail where he goes to the castle to save the boy he thinks is a girl and he kills everybody on the way there, lol. Hes like running and stabbing, runing and stabbing...

create a spell that damages magicka and strength...

cast it on someone, and with a few casts, they can't move, cast spells...they can only make rude gestures and shout insults...

torture at leisure...

marksman's target to improve ranged skills...

practice dagger skills...

try out that new spell you've wanted to field test...

make ornamental garden statues...out of living dremora...

That sound hillarious! I have to try that!

I had the same idea, I enjoyed watching them suffer when they couldn't move, I'd then cast Command Creature on quite a few scribs and then they'd start shewing on the victim and all you'd hear are their cries for mercy...very entertaining and enjoyable...

The ultimate funniest is casting levitate on Ordinators, luring them high into the air and then casting dispell. "we are watching you scuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrm" Splat.

that's so funny!!!

levitate!!!

ok, here is a variation...which is even funnier...

levitate to the maximum height, then use a scroll of summon golden saint or an item...watch them immediately drop...

its even got a practical use too...since the fall won't kill them, but will deplete more than half their hit points, they can now be killed by low level characters for soul trapping...

trap some ancestral ghosts, and make several rings of levitation, a single point with as much duration as you can...

or just make a cheap constant effect levitation item...

really, its not that hard...

i dont think its that hard to kill a golden saint either
i dont think i actually have ever stayed low level for long though, i tend to level up really really fast until about level 20

the funnieat thing i did was during my "raid" on Lord fyrs armour collection, really annoying him so he attacks me then casting calm humanoid on him, he wasn't calm at all so i thought i try an shut him up a bit:

*Hand to hand

Pummeling his face was just the perfect moment

"You N'wah" SMACK
"I'll g..."SMACK

I just imagined him lying on the ground wailing like a schoolgirl with a grazed knee.

another fun thing was on the goblin army quest, making all the goblins etc run towards me and picking thm off one by oe with my CE bound longbow , you probably had to be there but...

The Daedric claymore is also fun, because it kicks so much ass

When you sommon a creature, unless its a winged twilight or a ghost or something that does nor normally touch the ground it will appear on the groud, regardless of your own height. I know because I levitate over the ashlander camps summoning an antronch as I go...
