OMG! I do that too, lol!Smithing, to make money I use transmute to turn all my iron ore into gold and turning gold into jewelry. Smithing levels WAY faster than alteration.
Mine was Heavy Armor. I wasn't good at defending or blocking on that character. Originally he was going to be an unarmed fighter. Then I realized the cap for unarmed fighting is like 70 damage.
Also sneak. It just kind of levels itself when you play a sneaky character.
I didn't take into account the ring. With the max bonus and perks its around 70 though.Does that include the Ring of Beasts with a Kitty?
