What is Warrior Build?
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion: Remastered is the real deal about grit and muscle. A Warrior is free from magic trickery or backstabbing tactics, favoring combat face-to-face to exchange bruises, valiantly standing ground until the opponent cannot anymore. The mastery of the warrior style is really a fusion of attributes, gear, and race — all geared toward brutal melee efficiency.
Which race should you consider?
Only three races are very much suited for wannabe Warriors:
- Nord: This has to be number one on the list, especially male, with a +10 Strength and Endurance boost. Their frost damage resistance only makes chilly caverns a tiny bit less dangerous.
- Redguard: Redguard is designed for slaughter. They enjoy some balanced stats with Strength and Endurance and Agility all working together. Their natural aptitude in long-blade skill gives them a good running start toward that melee mastery.
- Orc: The brute powerhouse. Orcs have the skills to absorb damage and deliver it twice as hard. They are the ones if you need pure combat toughness.
Important attributes to choose
The existence of the Warrior is held by and dies through three vital stats:
- Strength: Aside from damage, this also affects your carrying capacity — in battle with whatever you're wielding. A high score in Strength could almost turn you into that literal monster truck.
- Endurance: Higher Endurance means every level up matters more, giving extra health and extra fatigue, two key elements for an extended fight.
- Agility: Often ignored stat, it guarantees your dodging, staggering, and swinging with finesse of lighter weapons is, in fact, useful when fighting since they are quicker.
Skills and equipment

The true Warrior in Oblivion Remastered relies almost entirely on these major skills:
- Heavy Armor: This is your bread and butter. Live longer, take more punishment, and look great doing it.
- Blade/Blunt: That really tells you what kind of weapon type to go for - swords for speed, and blunt weapons for pure brute force.
- Armorer: Repairing gear mid-dungeon crawl, cos warriors can't rely on magic mending. Self-sufficiency, right there.
Put on a complete suit of armor. Steel and Ebony are the best early-to-mid game options, with Daedric gear being the highest when it comes to raw physical protection. Pair that up with a robust shield and you are now a walking fortress.
