  I'm liking this with the updates! There are a few more things I can think of though:

  • Regardless of whether or not you can enchant it, you can wear the Jagged Crown with any Dragon Priest Mask, so for aesthetic reasons, you may want to keep that on.
  • Dunmer's innate fire resistance combined with that of Ahzidal's already puts you past the fire resistance cap, making the fire resistance enchantment on the boots useless. I'd swap it out for a Fortify Stamina enchantment.
  • This didn't occur to me earlier, but since you're using Smithing and a very high quality armor, taking all the ranks in Juggernaut is probably unnecessary, considering that you can hit the armor cap with this build with just one rank in it. Maybe consider taking some ranks out of Juggernaut for Destruction Dual Casting/Impact, Fire Enchanter, and/or Intense Flames? Just a thought.

  I too like the updates! This build deserves more likes. The only thing that would be good to add is a gameplay section detailing how to play the Balrog, like when and how to summon, use fire spells, and your sword.

  There, you're out of the Bloodworks. Be free!

  While some of the data is incorrect, I can certainly see where it's coming from and can think of some ways around it. This is an epic style to play and I'm seriously considering trying it out for myself. I hope this can be updated more in the future.

  Great build. I think it would be best to use the perk Fire enchanter to improve your fire resistance. How do you get the Jagged Crown and duplicate it? Is there any early game equipment that would be best to use will building up to Daedric? What weapon would be best to use for this build out of a axe, sword or a mace? And you could add a way to level Conjuration is to buy the spell tome 'Raise Zombie' to easily level Conjuration. Is there any other Dragon Priests Masks I could use if I don't have Dragonborn? Restoration may help heal yourself and your allies in battle. And could you help me make a build? I was going to do something similar like this with shock and frost but I need help and I don't know who to ask. Thanks
