    Is this why I always end up a sneak archer?

      No, that’s human nature. Turns out stealth archer is just the optimal way of approaching combat for maximum efficiency in any game that lets you do it.

        Yeah it’s quite hard to beat instantly killing the enemy without ever giving them the chance to retaliate in any meaningful way lol

          Stealth archer also synergizes with the highest amount of skills in the game. It’s the funnest because it makes use of way more systems than being a mage or warrior

        Soyboy stealth archer has to slowly sneak around and line up shots one at a time. If spotted, he must hide, or run, until aggro drops and he can start sneaking again.

        Chad two-handed weapon user boldly charges in and power attacks anything that moves until all that’s left are bloody corpses. When spotted, enemies will rush him, saving him the trouble of having to hunt them down.

          While I agree, this falls apart in VR, which is objectively the best way to play. Physical combat lacks any sort of weight, while archery with mods feels insanely satisfying. I wish physical combat felt… good.

          The Thad maniac illusionist sprints and tags every monster in the dungeon with fury, wabbajacks off, and screams at anyone who gets too close. The results are impressive IMO
