Skyrim- your dual weapons choice

[metal mustache]

i'm probably going to play through a few times. the first time i'll go nord with dual weild maces or maybe axes, the second time a breton with dual destruction spells, third time argonian with dual daggers (so badass!).

 

[ipop@you]

Thought about this a lot: Axe/Mace in one hand then a healing or destruction spell in the other is one possibility, Dual axes is another (if there is a dual 2-handed weapon perk I'll use 2-handed if not then I wont), possible Gandalf combo staff in one hand sword in the other and finally for my sneaky character an illusion spell in one hand then a dagger or (if they introduce them) a crossbow.

On another note these are all playthroughs I've decided to use: 1/2 Both Nords one at least will be called Beowulf and then another typically viking name for the other, 3 is a Breton who I will make look as much like Gandalf as I can but probably with armour finally 4 is a Khajiit and will probably be my favourite if sneak attack bonuses are still hilariously overpowered.

Yeah I've really put a LOT of thought into this... but then again who hasn't.

Two lockpicks.

 

[jhlip]

A sword and an axe or a sword and a ball of fire.

 

[v3n0mat3]

Axe and Sword. Mmhmm.

 

[BlueSinbad]

Sword in right hand, Magic in the left, that's always my combo, I think I get it from FF7&8 when Squall and Cloud reel back their swords and fire off magic with their left hand

 

[Baby Tea]

Dual Longbows, of course.

Hope you have a fantastic dental plan to pull back those bowstrings!
Though I would LOVE to see that in game.

OT: I'm guessing two daggers, or a sword and a dagger (Like Duncan, from DA:O!).
Not two swords, though. Over done. Unless they are short swords...then maybe.

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?

Whatever fancies you.

Really, the more you use a type, the better you get at it, so try them all out and see what you like.

Personally, I'm picturing a argonian with two classy daggers.

 

[RuralGamer]

Still the good old bow, especially if bows are more powerful as they've mentioned. Alternatively, I'll stick to the good old sword and shield combo; hasn't let me down yet.

 

[Zebidizy]

either two massive battle axes or two war hammers =)

 

[squiggothhunter]

Double Battle Axes
Chaos Berzerker roleplay FTW

 

[2733]

two of the biggest hammers I can get a hold of. style is cool, but DPS is king.

 

[Nikolaz72]

Dual wield fullplate armor.

 

[LitleWaffle]

For my ninja: Two Daggers
For my wizard: Whatever two really badass spells i have.

 

[Hansinkdu]

A sneaky bugger with Spear/Fist combo. Haymaker to impale, sounds lovely.

And for laughs, Fist/Fire Spell, Show me yo moves!

 

[Exocet]

Sword and the biggest flail money and questing can buy.I'm going to go Witch king nazgul on their asses.
In town,I'll also equip some silly trolling spell,like a physical push or terrify.

 

[XHolySmokesX]

A nice hefty sword in my right hand.

And a nice spell, of some kind other than damage, in my left.

I iz gona murk it up!!

 

[Bloodstain]

Staff and sword/axe/dagger/ANOTHER STAFF.
Oh yeah.

Edit:

Spoiler: I believe this is appropriate.

 

[StellarViking]

Dual fork of horripilation

Dammit, ninja'd.

Well, since my first option's out, I'll go all morrowind and wield dual BanHammers. I know they're unique, but I don't care. That's what the console is for.

Unless they give us the option to wield books, then it's double "The Lusty Argonian Maid".
