I will play a dumpster diver wearing and eating anything good I can get my hands on... later on, he'll be a Sorcerer.

I figured out how to make an absolutely disgusting Sorc Tank, that's what I think I'll roll. Whatever you go with OP I'm just happy you have already committed to joining the Altmeri Dominion!
Edit: Seriously OP should watch "Big Trouble in Little China". So bad it's good.
I'll be leveling four characters simultaneously so I can cover the crafting skills... something I've done in every MMORPG I've ever played from way back then, however many characters it took...
(1) My main - Breton Templar with heavy armor, restoration staff, healing build, and blacksmithing... a single skill bar plus LOTS of passives.
(2) Wood Elf NightBlade with medium armor, bow, siphoning build + poison, and woodworking... a single skill bar plusLOTS of passives
(3) Khajit Sorceror with light armor, destruction staff, lightning storm build, and clothing... two skill bars, both using a destruction staff but different skills
(4) Nord DragonKnight with heavy armor, two handed sword on one skill bar and sword and board on the other, tanking build, and enchanting.
I've spent hours working out skills using various calculators, but the odds are that I'll get excited at some point (or get even more senile) and all of that planning will go down the toilet...
It's good being old; if I do something stupid, I don't have to worry about it because I'll forget I did it in an hour or so.
I'm going with an Imperial Templar. Sword and Board, 5 Heavy/2 light armor, Dawn's wrath and Restoring light. I am still debating my second weapon. It is between a Bow and Restoration staff or could just have two sets of S&B using charge as a closer. But it is only 22 meters, so not sure.
I want to work in Blacksmith and Enchanter as well. I can't wait for Sunday. Should be a good time.
And yes Big Trouble in Little China is a must see.
How many people long for that "past, simpler, and better world," I wonder, without ever recognizing the truth that perhaps it was they who were simpler and better, and not the world about them? R.A.Salvatore
I could give you tips, but as far as sharing my build at this point, there's absolutely no way. I feel like I've come up with an extremely solid build, and if shared, I'm confident a lot of people would copy it. This is what happens when you're waiting for a game for a month or two and so many calculators come out lol.
Edit: It's really not a total secret, that is, if you're on the other end of it! See you on the battlefield!

Ohhh goodie, an information dangler! Someone who knows something that NO ONE else has figured out, and doesn't want to let anyone else in on their fun... But it's too good to just stay silent about it. This is the kind of thing that begs you to tell people that ONLY YOU know about it, that way they can be properly impressed and envious of your knowledge.
But seriously, my guess is that tens of thousands of people are going to have almost the exact same build as you. Why would you care if people copy your build anyway?

DANG IT!!! How did you know?! Lol, but you're pretty spot on regarding being stoked enough about it that it's too good to stay totally silent about it. However, I will say this, I've tried to find people with similar builds on the forums, and the closest I've seen so far is same race, class, tree preference, weapon choice, and even armor, yet they didn't choose the same abilities.
I've spent a good while in front of calculators for the past month, indeed lol.
Well, everyone has a suggestion as to the *elite* builds; where we can squeeze another 2.7 DPS out of the toon. So I am going for the entertaining game challenge, and build one a little different.
He will be an overweight thief with tourettes and a smoker's cough, specialising in stealth. Wearing crafted wind chime armour and fitted out with a set of plastic lock picks he will employ the weapon of choice for lightning fast attacks from the shadows - a halberd. His gorget will be fitted with flashing LEDs to confuse the enemy and provide a little illumination so when sneaking he does not knock over a table of goblets. Probably accompanied by the only suitable vanity pet for a thief - a cockerel.
He shall be called Waster the Guildless.
I laughed, and am still laughing, harder than I should have at this. But I can't fucking stop.
Not sure on how it will play but I've been thinking about nightblade, heavy armour, 2h and vampire.
Kinda want to emulate the vampire counts from Warhammer
This is an awsome build because of the syphon abilities to restore health. I played it through beta and just at level 13 the heals were awsome I was actually told that they were some of the best in the game with this combo.

This is pretty much what I'm doing, but I'm going with DW/S&B. Heavy on the life drains and HoT.

breton templar that wears light armor and uses a resto staff. after that i am not really sure.
i am thinking either a bow or destruction staff as my secondary weapon.
i am also going to be working on clothing and woodworking.
after that everything else is totally up in the air.

WAIT! Don't tell me... Khajiit Nightblade Archer, amirite!?
But seriously, my guess is that tens of thousands of people are going to have almost the exact same build as you. Why would you care if people copy your build anyway?
I will either play a dual wield Dragonkknight or a spank and tank sword and board Templar.
We all can only be who we are Nothing more nothing less.

Edit: Typos while still giggling
+1 Magika and train dual wield.

Dark Elf Nightblade--bow--medium armor--siphoning
Basically this guy right here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRX76ApI5vE
My youtube MMO gaming channel
Redguard - Nightblade Siphoning, sword n board and bow, 5 heavy 2 medium armor
C'mon we all know this is the best build in the game, plus Redguard's armor looks the best
Imperial DK or Templar Tank
Argonian Templar with Resto staff...
I'm not sure which will be my main though.
