High Elf, High Elf, High Elf.

Redguards are the best lore wise.

Orcs are the best gameplay meta wise in Skyrim.

High Elves are best for RP'ing ppl cuz 1000 year lifespan.

High Elves are universally the best for min-max shit. Orcs can do the highest damage in one hit, but both of them can gain the ability to one shot anything. High Elf just keeps free attribute levels on top of it, because Bethesda loves them and always has. This is a less severe version of how OP they are in every other game, but it's notable.

Also they're the worst for RP because being a lanklet bananaman is gay and awful. Fuck I hate Bethesda.

Personally, I feel like Argonians are a great jack of trades race.

I mean to say, they seem to be decent in a decent balance of everything that you don't have to worry about things too much.

>best at min-max

>what is fort X school+fort magicka enchantment

When it comes to min-max, Orc > Breton > Argonian > everyone else.

Just because Berserk is so OP by comparison to other racial powers.

I'd like to see a mod where like the following changes are made.

Altmer

-Same +50 Magicka

-Buff Highborn to like a Shout with a fairly long-ish CD

Argonian

-Same all around

Breton

-Same Magic Resist

-Make Dragonskin a buff to Armor Spells

Dumer

-Same Passive

-Ancestor's Wrath just needs a rework, Flame Cloak is meh. Maybe reduce Fire based spells magicka cost to 0 while active.

Imperial

-Same passive

-Maybe do the same with Voice of the Emperor as highborn

Khajit

-Same all around

Nord

-Same passive

-Battle Cry becomes an alternate version of Berserker Rage, giving half of the damage buff, but the full damage resist buff. It also prevents staggering and helps prevent getting ragdolled by Draugr shouts.

Orc

-Same damage buff, the damage resist is reduced to half, prevents staggering (see BattleCry).

Redguard

-Same Passive

-Adrenaline Rush buffs movement speed and maybe attack speed (sorta like elemental fury, but workable with enchanted weapons) a bit. This would make them good at killing mages who can walk backwards faster than PC's can forward sometimes.

All 'powers' can have their CD reset by resting or visiting a shrine (maybe has to be a certain one for certain races).

I outline why Berserk is functionally worthless in the post you're responding to, you green pile of Daedric shit. Besides, there's the height damage and speed mult to think about. The ultimate racial HE shits on whatever you love with. Because Bethesda is full of fetchers.

>Actually looking at any of those racials when I do 0.08 more damage with my 1000 damage BS laddered weapon

Man races: Nord warrior, Breton mage, Imperial thief.

Mer races: Dunmer warrior, Altmer mage, Bosmer thief.

Beast races: Orc warrior, Argonian mage, Khajiit thief.

In game stats Redguards and Nords are stronger and Skyrim is the first game where they're taller than Nords.

Also, Nords were in Skyrim before Orcs.

Also, Orcs were so weak Redguards kicked them out of Hegath in like a week.

Remember your place poo people.
