    So doggone awesome not to have to rely on a crafting skill. Might you also use a fortify restoration potion to increase the effectiveness of your equipment and the recovery perks (Someone researched it which perks/stones were affected by fort. rest. potions...Mason?)? I don't know if that would make the build OP, though. When I get around to this, I'd probably just become a vamp only for the Ring of the Erudite. I feel like necromage is becoming a bit of a crutch that doesn't always support rp.

    With 200% weakness to magic, this build will not be OP

    Thanks for your support Elendil. The ring of Erudite is a very good choice. Also I don't only take necromage here for the vampire boosts, I also take it to deal more damage to the undead.

    Thanks Mr Cuddles. Grinding crafting skills can be very dull so it's nice to play something that can be effective without them. At the moment I'm play testing a new non-crafting build I hope to post in the near future.

    Lol, Feeney. 

    No prob Twisted, and I forget sometimes that necromage is useful w/o becoming a vamp.

    You got lucky at 9:20 in the video! That Chaurus would have ended you!

    It did get pretty close looking back on it. Being so vulnerable makes for fun gameplay.

    Amwesome build Twisted! I love pure mages and played a very similar build my first time through Skyrim. +1 from me!

    Thanks, I always focused on cost reduction when I first started playing Skyrim. When I started using magicka regen instead I found it to be much more valuable, especially when you max it out.
