    Great build Zach! Shame on me for not reading/liking this yet!

    There is definitely something intoxicating about absorb health weaponry, I envy every build that uses it well!

    Thank Mason, yeah, there is just something about absorb health that feels "right" when used well.

    I want to play both this and The Demonhunter but they seem to similar and therefore I think it'll be too repetitive to try and play both. What is it that sets these two builds apart?

    You know what I'm starting to hate about people like you? Its when you make extremely awesome builds like this and i get the unstoppable urge to start a brand new character. I swear i have probably created 40+ builds on Skyrim since I came to this site. Great job, I really like the idea of an armored war-loving archer. Keep making more awesome builds. Just give me time to enjoy this one for a while okay?

    For one thing this build "starts" at a much lower level. Some of the best stuff on the Demonhunter, like it's great  use of the circle of protection (or whatever that master spell is called) is great, but it is an endgame thing. If you are looking to be able to play the build from an earlier level I would say that the Sternguard is a better fit. Also the roleplaying is different on the builds, it depends who you want to play as.

    Well since I'm a fan of roleplaying and I hate having to be like level 30 to achieve to potential of the character, Sternguard will be one of the next builds I play! +1 from me Zach
