I only chose the Atronach birthsign for the Magicka increase. It's well worth the stunted Magicka.
no it isntapprentice birthsign is alot more useful100+ magicka and weakness to almost everythingplus i am high elfim resistant as hell to magicka
I thought High Elves had a very low resistance to Magicka.
i have 100 retribution(rings & ammy) and 60 spell resist so lol
retribution = damage reflecti never take damage from melee.
who?
i played the hell out of the game, and havnt really found magic to be much a threat to me ever.(i played a thief/ranger)no point in defending against magic. waste of equip, birthsigns, spells, potions
You're all playing on a difficulty at or above Normal, right? Spells, if you don't dodge them in time, actually hurt quite a bit. I got a ring called "Resolute" or something, with 20% Resist Magic, just to cover me from a bit of the damage.
