I restarted last night and combat suddenly got WAY easier.
I usually like to play as a straight-up tank. So I picked an orc.
After playing for a while, I found myself settling into a hunter-warrior archetype, dual-wielding axes, sniping with a bow, and sneaking around in light armor.
The orc just didn't feel "right" so I decided to check out some online wikis.
Lo and behold, I was trying to ram a square peg in a round hole. The orc gets starting bonuses using heavy armor and heavy weapons. I'm sure as I leveled, it would have evened out but in the early game, I was starting off in a hole.
I read up on the Redguard and saw that they got starting bonuses with 1-handers, bows, and light armor - PERFECT for what I wanted.
So I started with a Redguard and what do you know? It's WAY easier all of the sudden...
