You can be any level, the enemies are not really hard. That is what makes it such a good mod.
Cool, I downloaded it.I'm going to start it after I finish the main quest

Legendary is pretty easy once you level your character and get most of your skills and good armor
I am thinking about starting a new game and going solo archer/sneak/illusion/dagger type character
Good choice! There's a good videos about the top 10 Quest mods, here it is:Speaking of quest mods. I DLed Moonpath to Elsewhyr last week. Takes you to the khajit homeland. Pretty cool so far. Gonna pick up the ones nickerson recommended
So I was supposed to be on break for the Fedor fight. Guess what I'm doing instead! I think I'm gonna go complete that Lexicon quest, it's been a while!
The smell of adventure. This is my warrior but in a enchanted sneak/lockpick/pickpoket set so I could do Thieves guild easier
I'm level 51 now I think
Nice concept: part musketeer, part pirate. Are those clothes or special armor? Anyway, he looks awesome. What's your weapon and favorite tactic?
For a thief, I find the Conjuration part essential. You need a distraction to keep the enemy occupied. Otherwise, you will have a hard time backstabbing or raining arrow from far away.@Metal_Daze
For my next character I wanted to make a thief class but I have 2 ideas. Should I go Archer,Conjuration,Sneak style or just I go Archer, Sneak, Dagger style?

If you remove Conjuration from the mix, you become the main target of foes. This is perfect for a warrior but for a sneak thief, you'd better cast a minion to grab their attention. Any minion will do. Even Conjure Familiar is great to create a distraction.
The only time I would say "forget about Conjuration" is if you don't want to be bothered with any spell casting and you are playing on lower difficulties. Don't bother in that case, just go in a straight line!
I'm sure you're more interested in the diversity of scenarios the Conjuration school will create for you. One of the most useful minion is the flaming familiar. You can only receive it from a quest: it's a familiar fire wolf that explodes 10 seconds after being conjured.
Also, if you have never got it, try to get the most useful Conjuration spell: Arniel shade!
He's invincible, last a whole minute and can be recast on command!
Archer/sneak is the way to go. Once you get your slow time and archery level up you can pick off multiple enemies before they even turn around. Very gratifying.
Obviously, Sanguine Rose is an awesome item! I was specifically talking about the best Conjuration Spell. If you want to complete the drunken quest and get Sanguine Rose, it does wield better results than Conjure Arniel's Shade. I doubt it is easy to gameplay into a sneak/archer build but anything can be done.I beg to differ : you can get this Dremora stick (sanguine rose or something) which you only need to refill with gems/souls really. If not mistaken, this stick is an external weapon and isn't linked to your conjuration aptitudes.
I tend to agree. I was once a celebrated archer, enchanting and smithing bows to soothe every need but when I learned the secrets of conjuration, I left all that behind. I prefer the Conjure Bound Weapons spell: with the Ordinator: perks of Skyrim mod, bound weapons are really strong.Oh and BTW, you are correct that it isn't great to combine conjuration with a bow. Since the latter is a 2 hands weapon and you need one hand to conjure, it means that you constantly need to go through favorites when you want to use both. That's a major issue in the game IMO. Actually nothing combines well with the bow, lol.
I still think that he bow is the ultimate weapon in Skyrim, though, but that's just like you know, my opinion, man.
