    I would definitely actually include Spellbreaker, which you mentioned earlier, as a part of this build. Its free Ward on Block could be a real lifesaver if your only means of recovering Magicka are rest, alchemicals, and Ward spells.

    Eh, it is technically a really awesome addition to the character (The more or less free wards are great, especially when your Magicka is low) from a gameplay standpoint but I don't think it really fits that well with the rest of the character. I mean it would turn it into a Shield Mage but in my eyes it would severly diminish the point of using Ward Spells (beause ultimitely you aren't using anywhere near as much Magicka if you have the Shield and thus don't really need the regen Wards give you) which is a huge focus of this build from what I can see.

    Just my opinion there, purely looking at it as what would benefit a character more I would definitely say that Spellbreaker is the way to go but for this character I think it'd take away a little bit of what's making it really unique at this point.

    I agree with DB. I was thinkingof adding Spellbreaker into the build but then I thought "That would take away from the uniqueness of the build." I would not have to focus on wards anywhere near as much if I took on Spellbreaker.
