Summary
AlthoughThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remasteredgives players the freedom tomake their own custom class, which allows them to choose a few major skills as well as attributes to focus on, there is also an assortment of already-made classes for the player to select from too, when they approach near the end of the tutorial of this RPG.
With classes that specialize in combat, magic, and stealth, there are a variety of ways for players to enjoyOblivion Remastered. Warrior may be one of the most basic combat classes available, but it can also be an incredibly enjoyable class to play as. Those who are looking to maximize their starting skills and attributes should be sure to play these races, as these are the best for the Warrior.
7Khajiit
Claws That Are Perfect For A Brawling Warrior
Although the race of cat-like people is best known for making promising thieves, Khajiit also have the potential to become great Warriors due to their advantage with hand-to-hand combat from their claws, as well as Athletics and Blades.
Although the Khajiit inThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remasteredmay have some promising points within the major skills that make up a Warrior, those who wish to choose a Khajiit as their starting race when making one will be at a slight disadvantage when compared to theother great race optionsfor this class. Depending on the background selected for the Khajiit between Anquina and Pellitine, the Khajiit will either have a slower Endurance or Strength, which are both needed to make the perfect warrior.
6Argonian
High Athletics Means Quicker Fatigue Regen
Khajiit isn’t the only bestial race that makes for a great option when playing as the Warrior class, since Argonians are another that starts with many skills which overlap well with the major skills of the Warrior. Argonians are another race that has a high score in Hand-to-Hand combat, though they don’t have the claws of the Khajiit. Besides this, Argonians also have great Athletics, which means players can hit with their blade more frequently asthe fatigue bar will regenerate a lot quicker.
Alongside the assortment of skills that Argonians have, which give them an added advantage when starting as a Warrior, Argonians also have a natural immunity to various poisons. This adds an extra level of defense to those playing as an Argonian when facing enemies that favor attacking the player with poison.
5Dark Elf
They Are Incredibly Deadly With Blades
Dark Elves, also known as the Dunmer, are another great option for players looking for a race that fits the Warrior class well. This race of people has quite a mix of skills from both magic and combat. This makes them the perfect choice for a Warrior. Although the class focuses on having an advantage in Blade, Athletics, and Blunt weaponry for those who wish to use something that isn’t a sword, a player can still make the most of the destruction magic the Dark Elf is known for.
While wearing heavy armor may stop the majority of damage being taken by a Dark Elf Warrior, this race of people has another advantage. Since Dunmer originates from quite a volcanic place, they also have a resistance to fire, which can also benefit a Warrior.
4Imperial
Stand As Proud As Any Imperial Warrior
The Imperials, who are the main race for the setting ofOblivion Remastered, feel similar to the likes of Spartan soldiers. With this in mind, it’s no surprise that they make for such good combat classes, such as Warrior. Imperials have a wide assortment of skills that give them a great head-start when taking on the role of a warrior, with Heavy Armor being one of their highest.
Although Imperials are known for being quite diplomatic traders, giving themgreat speech skills, players should put this aside when becoming a Warrior and instead fall back on the various fighting styles that the Imperials are also well-versed in.
3Redguard
Great Starting Attributes As Well As Skills
Redguards are another brilliant race inThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remasteredthat makes for perfect Warriors. Many of their strongest skills are major skills that the Warrior uses the most, from the Redguard being great with both Blunt and Blades, which also have high Athletics and Heavy Armor skills for one of the most optimal starts.
Depending on the background chosen for the Redguard, players can have even more of an advantage during the early game when playing as a Warrior. If a player selects the Dragontail Mountains, their Redguard will start with 50 Strength, allowing them to do even more damage with various weapons, both blades and blunt. Even if a player doesn’t decide on the Dragontail Mountains, the Redguard still starts with 50 Endurance to better increase their starting health and fatigue.
2Nord
Deserving Of The Title As Highly Talented Warriors
As the description inOblivion Remasteredmentions, Nords are considered some of themost talented warriorsin Tamriel, and from the appearance of their skills, it’s no surprise that this is the case. Like any good Warrior, Nords have improved Strength and Endurance, though this is mostly the case for Nords that are from the Western side of Skyrim.
Besides having the attributes needed to make the perfect Warrior, Nords are also incredibly lethal with both Blade and Blunt weapons, while also benefiting from wearing Heavy Armor. It doesn’t stop here, as Nords continue to be great Warriors due to their resistance to the cold, which can help against some magic.
1Orc
Some Of The Most Fearsome Warriors In Tamriel
Unsurprisingly, Orcs have solidified themselves as one of the strongest contenders for the best race to play as, inOblivion Remastered, when hoping to create the perfect Warrior. Orcs naturally have some of the highest Endurance and Strength out of all the races, without needing to pick a specific background, but the fearsome warriors of Tamriel have a lot more than these attributes going for them.
With both high Block and Blunt skills from the start of the game, players hoping to make a Warrior that doesn’t focus on swords are in for a treat when playing as an Orc. Since they are also great craftspeople with their +15 Armorer skill, they can also easily repair their armor themselves, without having to rely on a blacksmith.
