For my Unarmed playthrough I didn't use Necromage. It's a huge potential factor so I had to include it in any discussion on the subject but you absolutely don't need it to make the style viable.

Interesting, can't wait to see what you've got for us this time. I realized I mis-calculated my total Fortify Alchemy, so I think I actually can get it to an even 100%. I'm using a fairly similar setup to yours: Krosis, Muiri's Ring, Bracers of Major Alchemy, Necklace of Alchemy = 20 + 15 + 17 + 15 = 67%. I prefer the even 100% (well, actually probably around 100.6 or something) to the extra 5%.

Your MFD discussion was a perfect reason for me to revamp and eventually repost my old Smiter build. He is slowly getting there in the background... Soon!

I look forward to it. I played a Bash build for a week and it was so ridiculously overpowered the most difficult part was finding a challenge.

If my hunch is correct, Dual casting is affecting the 'Taper' of the spell which is making it do far more damage than expected. Still need to mess around with Alchemy to see how far I can push it. Last night I 1-shot a Deathlord with one of the spells...and they cost something like 9 magicka to cast!
Stendarr's Aura is very interesting to use with Alchemy and I haven't even started testing out Auriel's Bow. This all started with a question I had regarding Henson's 'Sun Priest' build and it's snowballed way out of controll

This is great! I'm currently knee deep in testing out a concept build of mine, focusing primarily around a free main-hand and a Shield in the off-hand. Now, in the span of a few days, you've literally taken my idea and propelled it forward into something I would have never otherwise achieved.
That being said, it looks as though a few people are working on similar builds - yourself included, if i'm not mistaken. I hope I don't severely encroach on anyone's pre-established ideas, and that you don't mind me using, and referencing, bits out of your works.
Anyway, keep up the great work! Hope to see some more game-changing discoveries from you, if it's not too much to ask of course.
