I'm having tons of fun and decent difficulty playing with a ranger sort of character. I barely have any crafting skills and some dungeons can be pretty tough. Forelhost in particular was quite tough. Once you get staggershot, move fast w/ drawn bow, and the ability to make aim SLOW DOWN TIME, bow gets a lot easier. it slows time for everyone including yourself meaning that the relative speed of everyone in the game remains the same. Yes, you have to learn to draw your bow before activating the matrix-mode button. Trying to draw a bow with two points in the perk will kill half your stamina bar before the arrow is ready.
Yep, draw arrow, slow time, line up shot, release arrow, release aim. Minimizes stamina cost and speeds up combat in general when using that style.

anyone have any advice for starting an assassin with some reliance on a bow when needed that doesnt involve exploiting to level really fast in the beginning?

bows do work. u wont need any help unless ur playing master difficulty.

I dunno man...I feel like skyrim isn't a game to be played twice, even with different characters. I never knew console commands were such a gimmick.

Bah, I am constantly crashing once again, and I don't think I even did anything.
did my game cache or w/e and it updated nothing, so idk...so tired of crashing every 30 minutes TT

i don't see how you can possibly think that
A) even if you get 100 in all skills, you can't get every single perk. i mean - hello, you just broke your own character by trying to cheat the perk system with the console
B) the whole stormcloak/imperial war is enough to warrant doing two playthroughs, don't you think?

Though I'm only lvl 15 on my stealth character I can say that it's pretty straight forward, just keep LOTS OF POTS. With light armor you can get bursted down on accident and the shitty beginner healing spell with no talents isn't going to help very well (though its a nice bandage between combat, since you won't be using magicka for anything else really). I haven't done any chant/smithing exploits and it's pretty much what you'd expect. Keep pots, sneak a lot (levels it fast and has strong perks), and open from ranged as often as possible.
As a follow up, something I've been wondering playing stealth-type... Is there any benefit to using daggers over other one-handed weapons for stealth classes? They might be a bit faster but it feels like regular blades make up for it by hitting so much harder, not to mention that most of the weapon drops in dungeons/questlines are regular one-handers and not daggers.

I highly agree. Plus the different guilds and characters make it so interesting. I am playing two files right now. I have a pure mage and a warrior. Next I'll probably make a dagger/bow thief. So many possibilities with completely different gameplay....and I just realized how long it's going to take me to do all that. lol

One of the perks gives daggers a x15 multiplier for sneak damage. The other melee weapons only receive a x6 multiplier so your weapon would have to have two and a half times the base damage to be equivalent to the dagger on sneak bonuses. Prior to unlocking this perk though I'd definitely recommend not using a dagger for your sneak attacks.
Most humanoid enemies carry a dagger regardless though so I think they're much more common personally.

I didn't realize that only applied to daggers (haven't reached it yet) so in that case you're correct. But until then, swords seem a lot stronger as you said.
Also, daggers of course are more common. However I was referring specifically to special/enchanted pickups, namely a few I've received doing Thieves' Guild chain. Expected a lot more "fancy" daggers, but they keep pushin' swords. Later will change I'm sure.

I fucking love Skyrim. Best RPG I've ever played!

i think thats part of why enchanting/blacksmithing are OP as shit.

I find archery really easy without slow time.. The only thing I see myself using that for is hitting dragons when they fly around. But then theres dragonrend..

Some more random HD Skyrim from my mod-searching adventures...
yes I know it's a little too sharp, I don't mind it that way, suppose it could use some tweaks to be perfect. :p

So I can't start the game since patch? What is the fix?

Right click in steam, properties, local files, verify integrity, wait.

General help for finding new Words of Power: Feel free to bust out a Thu'um in the middle of town (as long as you don't hurt anyone, aim it up in the air or something) and if people see/comment on it, eventually a courier will run up with a note that puts a location where a new WoP can be found on your map. Whirlwind Sprint works well for this since it cannot do damage.

I'd say for a lightly armored character starting out, you'll need the bows x3 sneak talent to get to the daggers x15 one anyways, and sniping is literally the easiest to play character archetype in the entire game, so it's a good lead in until you get the x15 dagger perk and (optionally, but strongly recommended)/or the double backstab gloves from the Dark Brotherhood questline.
