' Wrote:One tip I can give, though, is that you shouldn't wear armor. There's a perk in Alteration that will give you 2-3 times armor from Alteration magic spells. Later you can also get a spell which reduces physical damage by a set percentage (85% I believe). Really no reason for armor at that point.
Then again I don't care about min/maxing anything so I'm sure someone will tell me the Mage Armor perk is stupid.
The Mage Armor perk is stupid:)
No really, you can cast it without armor on, and then put armor on, and it'll stack.
There's also no downside to casting while wearing heavy armor, like Oblivion had, so the only disadvantage is the speed...
