    There is something about this build that i just plain LOVE

    I will admit, two handed combined with shield mage is something ive certainly never tried before, but it sounds like an excellent idea!! I dont try lots of builds, but i think i might just try this one!

    Nice one, Tim, as always. I heard Ahizdal's Gauntlets don't proc with Spellbreaker. Can you verify that combo works, absolutely?

    Sorry for startling you with my music! Glad you like it though, Wardruna is the group and they are excellent for Skyrim background music.

    Thanks for your positive comments, I am glad people are enjoying the concept because I felt that Bethesda unfairly portrayed Nords as HATING magic for the most part. I think we needed more examples of how a Nord would do magic, so that was the inspiration for this

    Sorry, I release these so infrequently I forgot how to do it for a sec. Thanks for the reminder!

    Thanks Vazgen, I know how you don't care for Nords, so that is high praise indeed =p

    And thanks for your help on this project, you were really helpful for bouncing ideas off of!

    Haha thanks for the shoutout Tim. +1 Great build. Never knew about the Spellbreaker + Gauntlets combo :0 "Special thanks to Vazgen, Ponty, Henson, Snacks and the rest of my friends here on the blog for helping me brainstorm, letting me bounce ideas off them, supporting my efforts and miscellaneous fagnetry! You guys are awesome =]" Haha our fagnetry knows no bounds! Thanks Tim :3

    Very, very nice work here, Tim. This is an absolute clinic on how to run a hybrid build. I love the combination of shield-mage and barbarian gameplay styles. One of my favorite playthroughs was a Bowknight who switched between crossbow archery for offense and a shield-Mage crowd control (whirlwind cloak primarily) for defense, and I envision this being a more close range, balls to the wall version of that, and equally as seamless as that gameplay turned out to be. So long story short is I know how enjoyable this build must be before even playing it. Great job.

    Thanks James, as an artist I am also a lover of artwork and I spend a lot of time searching for useful images. By now I have a pretty robust folder of character building pics that give me more than enough options to choose from, but I also search in various sites around the internet, and Google Image search is actually very productive at times. This is one I go to a lot, check it out http://digital-art-gallery.com/
