Build Your Way: Best Custom Classes in Oblivion Remastered (2025)

on

Let’s be real: nothing beats making your own character class in Oblivion. With the 2025 remaster breathing new life into Tamriel, now’s the perfect time to dive into custom builds that suit how YOU want to play.

Whether you want to slice your way through dungeons, rain fireballs from a distance, or pickpocket your way to glory, custom classes in Oblivion Remastered let you do it all—your way.

Why Create a Custom Class?

Sure, the game gives you pre-made options like Knight, Mage, and Assassin—but a custom class means total control over:

  • Your two key attributes

  • Your 7 major skills

  • Your preferred playstyle

  • Faster leveling based on how you actually play

It’s about making a build that plays exactly how you want it to.

How to Create a Custom Class

Here’s the breakdown of what you’ll choose when setting up your custom build:

1. Pick a Specialization

This gives a +5 boost to all skills in that category:

  • Combat (Blade, Heavy Armor, Block)

  • Magic (Destruction, Conjuration, Alchemy)

  • Stealth (Sneak, Marksman, Security)

2. Choose Two Main Attributes

These boost your stats from the start:

  • Strength (Melee damage, carrying weight)

  • Intelligence (Magicka pool)

  • Willpower (Magicka regen)

  • Agility (Accuracy and dodging)

  • Speed (Movement speed)

  • Endurance (Max health, fatigue)

  • Personality (Speechcraft, disposition)

  • Luck (A little of everything)

3. Select Seven Major Skills

These start higher and level faster. Choose skills you’ll actually use often, or you’ll be stuck grinding later.
