thanks silverthorne!
that's the part i was trying to figure out. now i understand why it's nicknamed "the Golem".... seems the part about needed to absorb magicka from another source is what i didn't understand about it.
and, now that i know its like the Sorceror from daggerfall... i understandit much better.
and i thot it was a tad hard at first, but later on in the game it was really no problem dealing with.
so dear 'Old' Boy:
i think it's absolutely marvelous. Bretons are great magick chars and i like all the stats you picked. i prefer concentrating on mercantile, also. i think its important to pay attention to Personality Stats in this game, along with everything else. so, Shivva looks very nicely balanced.
i would like to try my own Enchantress based on your suggestion if you don't mind! [img]smile.gif[/img]
