    Such an amazing build! There are so many ways to play the character, which is refreshing when you start to get bored of a single combat style. It doesn't limit you to a button mashing brute or a stealth user praying the first shot kills. Nothing like a stealth kill-cam from behind with a two handed sword, pushing your blade through their back and out the other side! Favorite build on the site Henson, still on my play-through and loving every minute of it =)

    Awesome! Glad to hear it! When I first came upon learning about the race, I felt that I wanted to stay true to a sense I got from reading that could only be described as "strong, calculated stealth" and this mixed play style is what came out of it. I was trying to imagine what a frontline Ka Po' Tun would be acting as a frontline soldier, and two handers just felt right for their immense tiger dragon strength. If any lore or storyline comes about showing they have different sub-species like the Khajiit, I am sure other tactics would be great to use including dual wielding, archery, or even some magic.

    For this build, investment in enchanting or magic or illusion perks would take away from the ferocity of the build, meaning less stamina for power attacks and such. A less magicka focused build was more appropriate for what I was going for.

    Oh forgot that question! No I did not. I think I used Faendal for like two dungeons when I was getting my character concept in view and didn't know where I was going yet, then sent him packing.

    Henson, would you be offended if i were to make a build that is a Ka Po' Tun? One that happens to be the son of Tosh Raka?

    I WOULD BE SO OFFENDED. Just kidding Cam. I would love to see another Tiger Dragon build!
