![]() I also enjoy the roleplay element of forging arms from the bones of a defeated foe. The Dragonbone Mace has a particularly brutal design with its spiked points that I enjoy, and both weapons deliver on their devastating damage potential. I picked Dragonbone over Nordic weapons because I felt the straight edge of the Dragonbone Sword more appropriate to the style of sword that valkyries are often depicted with as opposed to the slender curved edge of the Nordic Sword. Valkyries are most often depicted with spears, but are also sometimes represented wielding a sword or mace, so I decided to incorporate both. With the shield equipped, this setup is left just shy of the armour cap which is more than strong enough to tackle even the hardest difficulties. The Dragonscale Shield rounds out the arsenal, complementing the visual design I had in mind with excellent stats to show for it. For jewellery, the Gauldur Amulet boasts a versatile bonus and a fitting look, and for a ring I used a generic Ring of Peerless Healt h but solid alternatives include rings that fortify one handed, heavy armour or health regeneration. Steel Plate Gauntlets and Boots fit well with the look and I prefer them to the Nordic Carved equivalent, but with identical stats and smithing perks you could always swap them out if desired. The Dragonscale Helmet in particular was chosen for its winged design, encapsulating the theme of a true valkyrie. ![]() The combination of the Dragonscale Helmet with Nordic Carved Armour is my favourite aesthetic that I’ve found so far. Weapons: Dragonbone Sword, Dragonbone Mace, Dragonscale Shield Destruction is used primarily for cloak spells but is occasionally necessary for ranged enemies that you can’t always close the gap on such as dragons.Īpparel: Dragonscale Helmet, Nordic Carved Armour, Steel Plate Gauntlets and Boots, Gauldur Amulet One Handed, Heavy Armour and Block are the key combat skills providing excellent damage and sturdy defences, tempered by Smithing. Major Skills: One Handed, Heavy Armour, Block Stats: I used a 1M | 2H | 1S split until 140 base magicka, investing solely into health and stamina thereafter. Stone: I used the Warrior Stone at first before switching to the Lord Stone for the invaluable defensive bonuses. Other good choices include Imperials, Bretons, Orcs and Redguards. Race: I chose a Nord because they suit the theme of the character while also sporting appropriate skill bonuses, a strong racial power and their resistance to frost is a powerful boon for melee characters. She is tasked with earning glory and a place in Sovngarde for those who cannot earn it themselves, choosing who among the fallen is worthy of a place in Shor’s Hall.Ĭharging into battle atop the back of her steed or dragon, the Valkyrie is a formidable warrior, a master of the sword, mace and shield, bolstered by offensive magic and the deadly power of the thu’um. The price of admittance to Sovngarde is a glorious death.īut what of those who fall outside of battle? Those too young or frail to fight, those taken by sickness or dishonourable means?
