Applying these to your weapon will make your arrows far more powerful, to the extent that you’ll be tearing through ancient dragons like it’s nobody’s business. Once you’ve taken care of all of this, you’ll need to use Alchemy to craft devastating poisons. On top of this, you’ll need a bow enchanted with elemental damage and soul trap - to keep it topped up - as well as the best arrows money can buy. The goal is to kit yourself out in light armour with Sneak enchantments. You’ll need a maxed out Sneak stat, or as close to it as you can get, as well as high Alchemy and Enchanting. This might seem pretty self-explanatory, but to be the best archer in Skyrim you’ll need more than a fancy bow. However, Redguards and Imperials are also well-suited to this style of play, boasting decent combat skills and an innate proficiency for Destruction magic. The best battlemages in terms of stats are Dark Elves, and their Ancestor’s Wrath ability is brilliant for crowd control when you get overwhelmed. You’ll also need a decent Light Armour stat, and high Sneak won’t go amiss because it will allow you to deal six times normal damage with a one-handed weapon from a hidden position. As for utility perks, you’ll need a decent Alchemy stat so that you can craft potions to keep your health up, as you likely won’t have time to switch to Restoration magic very often. That way, you’ll have a much bigger pool of Magicka to work with. The next thing to do is kit yourself out in light armour enchanted with buffs to Magicka regeneration and spell costs. While Destruction is brilliant for exploiting elemental weaknesses, your one-handed weapon will be your main damage dealer, so it’s probably best to level One-Handed up on its own before adding Destruction into the mix. If you’re planning on running this combo, you’ll likely be wielding a weapon in one hand and Destruction magic in the other.
