I am considering a new build: an Argonian stealth dagger / Illusion build.
I would like to know if the Armsman perks (gives bonuses when fighting with one-handed weapons) stack with the Backstab and Assassin's Blade bonuses in Stealth.
If so...
Her two weapons will be the Razor of Mehrunes Dagon (right hand) and an Elven or Glass Dagger (left hand.)
The "Skyrim Math" is as follows:
The Razor of Mehrunes Dagon + a Glass Dagger has a combined base damage of 20 (the Razor has 11 and a Glass Dagger has 9)
Armsman rank 1 gives a 20% bonus to all one-handed weapons
9 times 1.20 = 10.8
Dual Savagery gives a 50% bonus to all dual wielding power attacks
10.8 times 1.5 = 16.2
Backstab causes sneak attacks with one-handed weapons to do six times damage
16.2 times 6 = 97.2
Assassin's Blade causes sneak attacls with daggers to do fifteen times normal damage
97.2 times 15 = 1,458
1,458 damage on a single dual dagger strike.
If my math is right, then these two weapons combined are killers!
