Nice one, Casey. It's great to see another build from you -- you really like to spread them out, huh?
And a Redguard to boot? I'm tickled pink! The lore here is intriguing; I love me some Yokudan influence ... I'm not 100% sold on the criminal aspect; there's a bit of dissonance between becoming a thug/assassin vs. following the Way of the Sword.
Gameplay is interesting, though I must say, it seems too overpowered. Coming from me, that's probably saying something. But I mean, you're using a couple significant glitches/exploits, the most overpowered, broken weapon in the game (times two), the most powerful shout(s), and arguably the second-most powerful weapon too. Obviously it makes for a fun and effective combat experience, but there is such a thing as overkill, I think.
For ethereal faint, is that constant crouching/standing done automatically when you hold block? Or is it a product of a specific button combo or something? Sounds like a pretty cool tactic either way! Definitely something I'm gonna try to check out in-game.
Also, maybe I missed it, but how exactly did you get two copies of Windshear? Just the standard follower drop+dupe trick?
Overall, it's a nice build. I'm not familiar with the source material, and you did a great job keeping that from hampering my ability to enjoy the build. Perhaps some of the concerns I mentioned above would make more sense if I did know more about the inspiration. Either way, well done, Casey!
