I actually can't find the SkyUI plugin. Do you know off-hand what it would be referred to as?
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

Playing as a Dunmer Battle Mage and have done so for awhile finishing the main quests and all. Any suggestions that might change up game play? I'm thinking about ether doing a Breton warrior specializing in heavy armor, one-handed weapons, and block or an Orc specializing in heavy armor, two-handed weapon, and smithing. Not sure which to do but if you guys have any suggestions please feel free to shoot any ideas.

Just wondering, what difficulty do you play? I can understand the sentiment if you play low difficulty, but if you play high difficulty (master/legendary), you would know the value of block. It keeps you alive in combat, especially if you play sword and board style, or even 2handed.

The higher your block skill, the more damage you can block before your shield (or weapon) is knocked out of the way and you take damage.

I even go out of the way to take my chars out and "toughen them up" by finding a dual weilder NPC and use shield in one hand and a heal spell in the other hand (with a flesh spell on myself) just to level up block, alteration, restoration, and the appropriate armor skill.

Ouch that hurts especially since Dunmer are in my personally opinion one of the better races out there (although that probably depends on your playing style)

Pretty much although I'm a fairly casual gamer so I don't normally venture into the extremely difficult levels. I almost feel that the easier levels make it far easier to be magic user however since the higher level destruction spells are pretty over powered on the lower level settings. I'm currently at level 45 and so far it's not hard to one hit a fairly powerful foe with one hit. I'm currently using Incinerate so maybe that's the case but I'm not sure.

It would, however, be hard to one hit said foe with two hits. Still trying to do it. Someday.

Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws

Well the games would have had the needed climax now would they. Talos is really the only mortal to become a god in actuality Martin just became the vessel through which Akatosh propagated himself through in order to fight Mehrunes Dagon.
