What skill combo will you try to play? ESO

I am in the works of making a Daedric Summoner Melee build. My hope is to come up with a viable spec with Heavy Armor/Two-Handed Weapons for the Daedric Summoner skill tree. This was always a favorite build of mine in Skyrim and Oblivion and I want to try and make it work in ESO. Unfortunately I don't quite understand the character builder on ESOHead.com. I have no idea what is and what isn't needed of the build so I am just tinkering atm.

Does anyone have any unique builds they are working on? I would totally appreciate any help on my current idea for a build! I never had time to test it in the last beta so it's all on pen and paper till launch or until the next beta weekend.

You could go here and do some brainstorming/mapping. I think if you're going to decide to do Daedric Summoning and Two handed weapons I might focus on medium armor where you will get the most damage out of your two handed abilities. However, if you just want to be tanky then I might go 1 hand/shield instead of two handed. I did a build in one of the betas with 1hand/shield, Daedric Summoning, and Storm Calling to get the damage reduction/damage active and the armor abilities and shields from summoning and I was a beast when it came to being tanky. It was also a lot of fun.

I think for release I'm going to do a Nightblade that focuses on bow/resto staff as my two weapon types and be a really annoying healer type. I feel like a healer with a lot of escape abilities could be pretty decent. I'll probably focus on the Siphoning/Shadow Trees at first, and I have no idea what I will do from there.

I might try out that with a board and sword. I could use that when I want to tank and switch over to 2h when I wanna dps. Thanks for that link btw. Would you happen to know of any site where people submit potential skill setups?

I am realllllly glad to hear that you were able to run a successful setup with Daedric summoner. Come to think about it, medium armor will probably be the best. Do you know if the Bound Armor skill in DS stacks or is usable with medium armor?

When I was using it, it just added a set amount of armor for your character, it didn't matter what kind of armor you were already using. It's just like an armor buff. The two handed weapon was amazing for me in PVP, but honestly there are a lot of ways you can go and make a great character. I do not have a website for suggested builds but the front page of that site has a few videos which are interesting. It looks like people at the moment are using a mix of different armors for the stats they want as well and not really focusing on one or the other.

Everyone with a clue is going to go heavy armor, resto, destruction, sneak primary skills.

Lol, I have no idea what's needed and what's useless. What do you think of this? http://skills.tesotools.com/#ct4t7cfurz5o7xx Would you mind sending me a link to a build that you used for a Melee Summoner?

Also, what is the second skill bar? Is that for your second weapon skills? If it's not then I need to add more skills to it for sure, because I feel really short handed on skills atm to be completely honest.
