For me, nothing beats sniping several moving cliff racers heavily blanketed by fog that are a large distance away

Depends on the character. Short swords for thieves, axes for combat types. Spears and marksmen also get used occasionally. The others not so much.

Well, I don't like killing anything. In cleaving my way through fell beasts and evil-doers, I'm fighting the good fight; if a Daedra positions its face between my goal and my twin-bladed Nord axe? It, and anything that chooses to do the same, will suffer the explicitly painful consequences.

As to which weapon I prefer using; longblade - you just can't beat the classics. The only exception is my single RP character, who exclusively uses the aforementioned axe.

Magic? Pah! Magic's for wusses. :Twisted Evil:

well with me it varies from character to character, when im using an argonian will use spear (one of my favorites), but i've noticed that spears tend to not do the damage that long swords do so using any other character i would use a long sword, but all that is for close combat, my favorite is marksman, i really like to stand on top of rocks that animals can't climb and shoot them from a long ways away

Do i have to choose one of those barbaric ways?
Usually I put my minions to fight (conjuration magic) them and if someone kills them then they wish they were never borned cause I made some powerfull destruction spells that have around 80 success points on a 120 destruction skill.
Sorry i can't choose one of those they are all equal to me!

Nothing beats a well placed, silent and deadly arrow shot. And when it fails..well.. No, that's not supposed to happen. :Angry:

Critical hits all the way. Nothing beats creeping up on an enemy with a weapon readied, and then knocking them out in a single blow.
“Fine day” said the young man.

“Gods!” hollered Zaki, sending the young man flying with a well-placed punch, and dashing away.

Yes, maybe an alternate way of asking this question is:

Is your favourite way of killing
stealth
touch magic
ranged magic
etc..

I like the one hit stealth kill, or taking someone down at extreme range as they flee. Chopping enemies down with the 2 handed axe is probably the best, though (for me)

Lately i've been using Spear's, Wakisazhi's and Tanto's.
I have also been using Crossbows, Throwing stars and knives.

I like to sneak behind the enemy, then with one well placed strike, i kill them in one hit.
Then i say "Whoop! Toasty!".
Doin my own, thang, and if you got a problem with that
Then the nina go bang, bang, and I'll be everywhere on the map - but
I rep that West

How about doing a sneak attack with a daedric battleaxe? You'll feel awesomely powerful the first time you do it.

Killing someone with throwing stars is just too cool.

I love using my custom drain health spells. I have one especially for cliff racers with a wide radius. I've killed dozens of those damned things with one Bi'tch Slap!
