    What about the other replies after? =P

    Simple quick replies that no one got angry over and was solved simply by saying use something different... That's what they were. I've been having a bad time and I want this to die before an argument starts

    I've been meaning to take another crack at a Defender build I had in mind when Skyrim was still in its youth, and this pretty much being the evil version of that gets an insta +1 from me! Cool shit!

    This is really cool, that video is awesome and demonstrates the unique playstyle nicely. I'm so getting the Staff of Hag's Wrath when I try this build!

    Love it, +1

    I've been looking for a 'support' build for a while now and think this it is, Just sponge the damage help your team get the kills. GJ Man. Having a hound, serana, and 2 conjurered sounds awesome but would the shout you get from the dark brotherhood also work? Or would it just cancel out one of the 'Followers'?

    Came back to ask a quick question. Where is the weakness in this build?

  • May 19, 2013

    There are 2 weaknesses. First, the Apprentice stone makes magic damage 100% more powerful; an extra 50% on fire damage for being a vampire. You use your wards to combat this, but as you will be trying your hardest to make enemies attack you, one wrong move and you're dead.

    The second weakness is you need to pay attention to your followers. If they die, the amount of damage you do goes down, but at the same time, you need to drop your shield while being attacked in order to heal them, which makes you more likely to die. You just have to find the right balance.

    I just took a look and Lachance will cancel out one of your soul carin summons. If you wanted to, you could use Lachance as a replacement for one of the summons. On UESP it says that he will follow you until his death, meaning less time recasting summon spells.

    Love the aesthetic! Also really enjoyed the video for this one Twisted, only bit I didn't enjoy was the 'pulsing' with healing between bashes...that looks horribly repetitive! Sometimes it's worth swallowing pride and downing a soup...

    I think around level 31, it'd be a lot smoother to use fast healing instead of novice healing to refill your stamina.
