The best tip I can think of is to save your level up points and focus very closely on certain skills.
You can reset them later and redistribute them.

I haven't modded Skyrim in awhile, but it is a PITA to get stuff in....hopefully they will have the new scripts for blender to read the Skyrim nif files....

when I did the weapons( I was trying to add animals also) you needed to use a couple different programs to convert the Skyrim files so Blender could read them...and it never worked out to be "easy" :bhead :bhead :bhead

I wanted to add for the OP

the vanilla version of Skyrim is kinda cheesy....I mean cmon man there is no way in hell a guy with a sword is gonna kill a 90 foot fire breathing dragon....

my suggestion is to grab some mods that make it more realistic...."Deadly Dragons" is almost an absolute must.....

once you install that mod......I suggest you DO NOT try to fight the 90' flying.... fire breathing Dragon.... :t

We must not have been exposed to the same folklore and fairy tales because I thought that's pretty much exactly how all dragons were slain.   :o

One thing I don't like about the dragons in skyrim is that they have no treasure. They're dragons! They're supposed to have a hoard of loot. Instead you absorb a dragon soul ooooh. What a bunch touchy feel-good new age crap! And another thing, why for the love of god are there cat people and lizard men player classes? Seriously, cat people? Yet another RPG game that went Jim Henson on us.

You're hearing wrong. Very, VERY wrong.

I tried it in Beta, and from what I understand the release didn't change much. Fixed classes, no sandbox, pretty much everything Elder Scrolls is NOT.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
