Unarmed fighting

[VirusType2]

Is fighting with your fists still an option in Oblivion? If so, how is it? Good enough to play the entire game like that? I had an unarmed character in Morrowind and it was my favorite. It took longer to hurt the monsters, but it was alot more fun tbh

I do believe so.

It is. Apparently though it is quite difficult to use only your fists throughout the whole game, but still possible.

I think now, it actually takes off health instead of fatigue then health.

Ah I see. Thats going to make the fights faster.

I liked how it was before as well becuase you get to punch them so many times :x

Either way, im glad its still an option. You could carry so much loot becuase you didn't have a heavy ass weapon to lug around.

Thats another reason he was great unarmored as well, so you could travel really light. You could practically carry around a whole store's worth of loot.. but apparently they removed the unarmored skill in Oblivion

yeah, I saw a vid of a guy punching the chain in the very beginning

dunno how feasible it'll be to do it the entire game tho

In the beginning when some rats pop out at you I just punched them all in the face. They went down pretty quickly, don't think my character could do that to a Deadra though .

Yeah you can play through the entire game without weapons if you choose. Lol i punched a girl trying to sell me somthing and ran hahaha it was sweet.

For an unarmed character in morrowind it was good to learn daggers or short sword as a second weapon skill.

The paralyzing enchanted daggers were great in a pinch and could help you fight or run from battles where you would normally have been completely outmatched.

Question: Is breaking necks a perk for high Unarmed skills? The journalist on PCGAMER UK indicated you could break necks
