Ok I played Morrowind years ago on my pc and I logged in hundreds of hours and had a great time playing it.. I jes got it for xbox cuz my pc is broke and I'm not buying a new one.. So my problem is this, I start with 50 health, I'm level 7 now and have 80 health..
Strength 55
Int. 62
Will. 51
Agi. 41
Sp. 38
End. 57
Per. 40
Luck. 41
Major and minor skills are battle Mage with long blade and heave armor..
I can't even get through mzuleft cuz the orcs kill me in two hits.. Same thing at mehrunes shrine, the dremora were almost impossible to kill.. I used every potion known to man, cast reflect, barrier, summon help, even when I doge I still get knocked down and executed swiftly.. I don't seem to have trouble with animals only humanoids.. Am I not leveled up enough to be this far in the mages guild quest? As I remember from my pc days I always did the mages guild quest and got the razor no problem.. But on this Xbox it's like I'm not even enjoying this game it's becoming a pause do the refill healt glitch after every hit and save after every fight game and I don't want to do that...

You'll want to get your endurance up as health raises 10% of endurance with reach level. The quickest way to do this is make sure you get a 5x multiplier in endurance with each level. It's best to find a skill governed by endurance that IS NOT in your major or minors and train it 10 times, that' way when you level you'll have an automatic 5x bonus for endurance.

you should look up this quest call the vassir-didanat ebony mine on the wiki.you can get the best weapons in the base game and i think up to 8000 gold at any point in the game.

Maybe ur too low a level for them, u said u were lvl. 7. The level of most of those orcs might be somewhere in the 13-20 range which is very high for ur level. Also the orcish armor they wear is, according to me, is even more difficult to penetrate than ebony armor. Unlike in oblivion and skyrim, npc enemies here don't level up with you and are at a fixed level. So i suggest u check which level they are on uesp first and train urself more, cause ur still a very low level to take on even mid level enemies. And don't take on high level daedra like dremora now. At this level, the least u can put up with are fire atronachs, clanfears and scamps.

Lower the difficulty through the options menu, then get some more experience, items & levels before returning, it works for most quests that you just wait be patient and go back. The mages guild is quite bad I always found it best to start at a high level. Since mages are harder to play.

Yeah, lowering the difficulty setting is your best bet and option. One reason I prefer console is no console command cheats or mods mucking up the game. Bound weapons and armor are your friends though and don't forget racial specials like "Adrenaline Rush" or "Dragonskin" which can not only be lifesavers, but actually make a huge difference in combat, especially early on in the game. Avoid using the Orc's "Berserk" as the hit to Agility will likely put you on the ground even with only moderate hits.
