    I don't think he was being a smartass, he's a pretty sincere dude.

    Actually, that image kind of does help break it up though. Good call!

    It may have come off that way but I've worked extensively with Wicked and can say that he was being sincere about it. You can tell because he legitimately put an image in there to break the section up lol. He thought it was a good idea and was asking for feedback (which I think did help Wicked). I don't disagree with your lengthy comment except that first bit. Rolling with the punches is a key part of CB and can often help your build more than hurt it. You're definitely right about that but your Spidey senses were off this time ;)

    Sincerest apologies if I have offended anyone with that last comment. It truly was not meant to be harmful whatsoever. My joking manner, I can see, could easily be confused with sarcasm, which it was not intended to be. As Alastor stated, I did throw a pic in there to break up the sections, in hopes it would make the potions/poisons list a bit easier on the eyes of the reader.

    I may have come off a bit defensive in my reaction to the critiques. but I only mean to explain myself, so that the critics may better understand my reasoning, and possibly even change some hearts in the process.

    I am fully open to all comments and constructive criticism, and don't wish to turn anyone off from commenting. I am new at this and dream of being one of the best!

    Thank you Ben C for the compliment! It means a lot coming from a builder I admire. I hope to meet your expectations. I'll be sure to mind my p's and q's from now on.

    Thanks for the compliment, I'm glad you like it! Comparing my build to your favorite? I couldn't ask for much more. Thanks again. :)

    Really glad you like it ShinJin! You are one of the ones I knew I had to impress from back in the crossworld comments. Stoked I did the job!

    Made those adjustments. Simple mistakes on my part. Thanks for the heads up!

    This is very, very intriguing.  I've been wanting to do a werewolf build for a while now, and this is absolutely excellent -- enough to where I deleted my mage/werewolf build to instead make this instead.  I think I'm going to enjoy this very much indeed.  +1

    Actually, now that I think of it, I have a question:  I'm assuming you're using the Atronach Forge underneath the College of Winterhold for creating "monsters" as you put it -- I am curious, however, as to what "essence of the creator" is supposed to be.  About the only thing I can see that would work to get atronach's and the like that don't attack you is to make the various staves, or perhaps making the spell tomes themselves.  Could you (or anyone else who could) explain how exactly that works?

    Thank you so much for the compliment! Really glad you like it!

    I'm glad to clear that up for you. The idea of creating the summons through Alchemy is purely a roleplay concept. It is true, the ingredients for the Atronarch Forge were my inspiration, but the lesser daedra are actually summoned by their respective Conjuration spells.

    The idea is that instead of casting the spell, you throw out a flask containing the ingredients I have listed, which explodes to unleash the desired summon.
