Playing a sneaky rouge, should I pick Stamina or Health?

Alter between both. There is no real reason for Stamina really, because if you are REALLY sneaky and use daggers, you never actually use Stamina for anything, but it is handy for them dragon fighting moments, sprinting moments, and carrying a lot of crap moments (picking Stamina on a levelup increases your carry capacity slightly). When I was lvl 50+ with my thief I had around 350 in both Stamina and Health.

I buffed health every time, except twice when I buffed stamina at the begining and I have never had a problem playing a stealth class. Being able to avoid being snapped like a twig is more handy against dragons than spamming power attacks. I use pure arrows to take them down though.

I wonder if you could snipe a dragon out of the sky with a rogue/archer combo....
THAT would be cool.

you can't
I tried it.
At lvl 50 only ancient dragons pop up, and they have a CRAP-A-TON OF HEALTH.
A direct hit (which is VERY hard to achieve) will shave-off like 10% of their health.
Me, I had to rely on 2 dragonshouts (first rank of the shout that brings forth the rain and thunder to force them down, and then DragonRend to keep them down) and THEN I pumped full of arrows.
And I had a Daedric bow Legendary quality, enchanted with Thunder damage.

I backstabbed a sleeping dragon once. It woke up and flew up into the air with 0 health, flew in a circle, and then fell to the earth and died.
It wasnt an ancient dragon though

Marriage system is disappointing, yes you can get married but the amount of interaction with your spouse is VERY limited, you can ask them for food once a day, if you sleep on the same bed as them you gain a limited buff, and if they own a business you can ask money once per day, but that's about it..... :S ohh well, at least they followed into bioware's example and you can marry anyone, regardless of race or gender.
Agreed. I like it when stuff that has nothing to do with social/political views furthers an agenda. I'm just disappointed that there is no abortion clinics in Skyrim. I don't feel I can properly express myself as a person if I can't make a girl character, get her pregnant with twins by a horse, abort them, and put their pickled corpses in a crock pot overnight to make some topping for my morning omelets.
If you think that there is anything wrong with that, then you need to stop being so closed minded, you religious prude.

You know, I've thought about this more, and I've thought of some changes they should institute in the game. Every day, 50% of all income generated by each of the in game stores should be collected by the empire. Also everything sold should be taxed in the form of sales tax, and then the money gained by the sale should also be taxed, as income. All property owned by the player, and NPCs for that matter, should be taxed daily based on the estimated property value. Then divide up about 10% of the income takes between all the citizens. The other 90% should be spent however the government sees fit. I think also that the Empire should be allowed to borrow against the value of the Septum, thereby lowering the value of "gold" collected. This could be reflected by a steady increase in the prices of all goods in the stores. Anyone that rides a horse should also get taxes a certain amount each day to pay for the roadway systems. The state they are in now is adequate, so that money can be spent on 'research', and outrageous union wages. The empire should also regulate businesses. Each horse, before it is sold, should have to receive a 5 point inspection by an empire licensed inspector, paid for by the horse salesperson, of course, which could be reflected in the price of horses. Anyone who sells potions should also have to purchase a potion handler's license, and receive empire training every day. The game would be much more realistic. All the taxes and regulations would just be figured into the price of each item. A decent horse would cost about 120K gold. A house would cost 1M gold, and 20K each day beyond that. You would of course have to pay your housecarl an empire set minimum wage, and furnish insurance for him/her, as well as vacation time, sick time, dental, etc. Figure the price of owning a business at 10K a day, and a person to run that business or be a housecarl an additional 7K. No businesses would be allowed to buy goods from you unless you have a license to sell that particular good. Also any money that you have sitting in your pocket can have fees taken out of it. Figure the cost to own a house, a horse, be married, and have one employee (even if that is your wife), at 2.5M, upfront, and 100K daily after that. If your business survives, and the empire doesn't repossess your house and horse, the other citizens could gather around and 'occupy' your front yard, or your business entryway, since you exert too much influence with all your money. So much more realistic.
Edit: If this economy doesn't work, the game should just raise taxes until it does, especially on business owners.

I'm so tired of spells not scaling with level. I'm standing here burning the same falmer for 35 seconds before he dies.
what do you mean? If you mean you're using flames, it's not supposed to be used regularly/effectively past a certain level
EDIT: my storm atronach bouncers/AA guns so cool... I just hate it that they don't move when they're in the way of something : /
