    There were a couple of other minor typos I saw, Matt.  "They're" under Race should be "their"; and you spell "Durnehviir" incorrectly throughout (two "i"s, not two "r"s); and in the last paragraph under The Build, you put an "s" where it doesn't belong: "It doesn't looks wholly good or evil"

    Alright, think I got all of them.

    Nice build dude! Especially good for your second!

    I'd like to see this and the Keerilith battle it out together!

    +1, of course.

    OK now that I am home and packed away, I can finally like this build! Awesome ideas here and it was great to just see how you work, Matt. You play test like crazy and the whole CB group thanks you for it as it shows what a true builder does! Poison rune, targe, summons ... Bringing on some serious pain with this one! Huge +1 for this monster

    Very cool Matt! I like the Altmer+Orcish Armour aesthetic and seeing Summon Durnehviir used in a tactical way to compliment the build. 

    Did you find that you were maybe a little over-powered? By level 25 it looks as though you can already stand toe with most enemies thanks to heavy armour and two handed and control the flow of battle with illusion and conjuration. Surely Durnehviir and enchantments are overkill?  

    Having said that, the lack of restoration or alchemy for healing would mean you retain a weakness and rely on battlefield domination, so I take that back.

    What was your stat spread Matt?

    I love this build, great work Mr Feeney

    Thanks, everyone :) @Phil~ Stat spread was probably 2/1 health:magicka. Yeah, I would actually say the Puppeteer was more powerful with summons and constant shield bashes, but he has the weakness of barely doing any upfront damage. So I never found myself too overly powerful, but I certainly wasn't week. @Henson~ Thanks, dude. Yeah, I tend to playtest pretty hardcore. Think I'm around level 40 right now, and I could still keep playing (might turn the Berzerker into a Sword-And-Board.

    This is still a damn fine build Matt  The Puppeteer form is something I definitely need to try for myself.

    You could try Puppeteer+Werewolf Form instead of the Berzerker Form. Less skill/equipment juggling. In hindsight, that may have been a better way to go :(

    You mean summon Durnheviir before going into werewolf form? That sounds pretty epic too: the undead dragon and his spectral allies fighting alongside the wolf! Would the summon werewolf howl dismiss all other summons?

    I don't believe so.
