    Any tips or tricks for a 2 handed playthrough?  I have yet to get to far on a build focusing on it and I was wondering if I missed anything?

    The only tip I can offer is that there is a guaranteed two-handed ebony weapon in Lost Valkyg (not sure on spelling, it's near Shalidor's Maze) always ends up a hammer for me.  Don't be fooled though this is a super tough dungeon at low levels, even on Novice.

    Does Sailor's Repose increase the magnitude of sun damage spells, or just the healing spells in the Restoration school?

    @ Mitch, Sailor's Repose has no affect on sun damage spells (Sun Fire, Vampire's Bane, Stendaar's Aura).

    Are there any situations where conjuring a Frost Atronach would be preferable to conjuring a Wrathman?

    So I've asked this before, but I'd like a fresh opinion on it. How many skill trees can I invest in without being spread too thin?

    I personally would say 4 is about the normal value, perhaps you could go up to 3 major & 2 minor skills.

    This is really hard to answer as it depends on the character.  I've seen stellar builds with only one perked skill, and I've seen equally great builds with 12 perked skills.  It all depends on what you are doing with the character and if the skill choices and perk choices make sense.  So without knowing exactly what character you are building and what skills you are using there really isn't an answer.

    Thanks guys, I appreciate the advice.

    When I start the quest A New Order, there's a map marker for Sorine, but not one for Gunmar. The last time this happened, Gunmar's marker appeared in Skyrim after I recruited Sorine, but I remember having both their markers on the map in a past playthrough.

    He's on Solstheim.  Travel to Solstheim and activate the quest marker and it will show up.  His location is randomly determined and somes times he ends up on Solstheim.  In this case his quest marker will not show up on your map until you travel to Solstheim.
