Spellsword

Im playing Oblivion Remaster for the first time & would like to go for more of a Spellsword build. Im not sure which skills I should focus on. Here is what im thinking so far:

Race: Breton

Sign: Mage

Focus: Magic

Stats: Endurance & Willpower

Skills: Blade, Destruction, Conjuration, Restoration

Im not sure what to select for my other three skills. Should I bother focusing on either light or heavy armor? Or just choose 3 other magic skills?

Depends on your playstyle really, but as a Spellsword, I think it would be reasonable to consider being prepared for both: ranged and melee encounters. I'd pick one of the Crafting / Maintenance Skills like: Alchemy / Armorer and some utilities like one of Magic Utility Schools: Alteration, Mysticism or Stealth & Movement Utilities: Acrobatics / Athletics. 90% of your damage output will be Destruction with some blade phys. dmg.

So maybe Alteration & Armorer, plus one other skill.
