So, you want to be an Argonian. Good choice. Why play a regular human when you can be a lizard who breathes underwater and shrugs off diseases like they're mild inconveniences?
Here’s everything you need to know about choosing the Argonian race in Oblivion Remastered.
What's New for Argonians in Oblivion Remastered?

Why Pick an Argonian?
Water Breathing – Swim forever. Lakes, rivers, creepy underwater ruins—go nuts.
Disease Immunity – Everyone else is catching illnesses left and right. You? Not even a sniffle.
Resist Poison (75%) – Poison? Barely a scratch. Spiders and assassins will be disappointed.
In short, Argonians are built for survival. If you like exploring every swampy corner of Cyrodiil without worrying about what's in the water—or your bloodstream—this is your race.
Best Playstyle for Argonians
Argonians aren’t your classic sword-and-board types. Sure, you can swing a sword, but they shine when you lean into stealth, magic, or just being really annoying to kill.
Stealth Builds – Perfect for Thieves Guild or Dark Brotherhood runs. Sneak, steal, and swim away from your problems.
Mage Builds – Their balanced stats make them decent spellcasters. Plus, magic pairs well with not dying from poison.
Explorers – If you’re the “I wonder what’s underwater” type, this is basically easy mode.
Final Blurb
If you’ve ever wanted to roleplay as a disease-proof, underwater-breathing lizard who can rob you blind or blast you with spells, the Argonian is calling your name.
