  What I was saying is that you can get gear with up to 40% Fortify Two-Handed without enchanting. You can find these items in chests, dragon loot etc. Also, since the loot you find is based on your level, it can allow for a natural progression in dealt damage.

  I never thought about it that way, your right, enchanting is not necessary to this builds viability. I guess it's just a personal preference of mine. I will admit this build was a little boring until around lvl 40. Wth the enchants for two-handed and a ebony blade with the 30 drain health per hit effect, even on master the game was pretty easy

  The random drops will help for that too. See, that 40% equipment starts to appear from level 40. Before that there is 35, 30 etc. and for high quality items of each tier the requirement is also higher (for example, Glass Gauntlets of Major Sure Grip (25%) start to appear from level 37, while Scaled Bracers of Eminent Sure Grip (30%) - from level 25). You'll have to work to get the high level gear and it can be even roleplayed as Mephala rewarding you... Plus you won't need to craft at all which means that there will be much less interruptions in gameplay.

  So should I mark enchanting as optional, or just remove it from the build all together?

  Try it in-game, if you like that concept may as well remove it, but if you find enchanting more to your liking leave it. It's your build after all, I'm just suggesting options

  I believe you should include pictures of the light armor you suggest, instead of the heavy armored character in place (looks bad*** though)

  Swapped one of the pics for a guy in dragonscale. Though the top pic is too awesome to get rid off

  This is a great build, simple but effective. I've been meaning to use the Ebony Blade again for a long time but it looks like I've found the build to do it with.

  One thing I would suggest (although you don't have to change it) is to use Alchemy instead of Enchanting. With the five perks you put in Enchanting plus the three bladesman perks (the Ebony Blade has no critical multiplier) you could make potions to greatly increase the damage of the blade, and boost your defences.
