*Update* After the amount of helpful replies I was able to edit the build a bit. Thanks for the help guys!
This is my first build: The Balrog. This build is based off of the Balrog from the Lord of The Rings series.
The Balrog
Deep within the Red Mountain lies the Balrog, wielding his power of fire to destroy everything in his path.
Race: Dunmer (Dark Elf)
Stone: The Atronach
Main Skils: Destruction, One-Handed, Heavy Armor
Minor Skills: Smithing, Conjuration, Enchanting
Thu'um: Fire Breath with Dragonborn Flame ability
Weapon: Balrog's Whip (Fiery Soul Trap/Fire Damage)
The Build
I chose Dunmer because of their 'Ancestor's Wrath' racial ability. It allows them to charge into battle and burn enemies. Dunmer also are 50% to fire. With the armor enchants, the Balrog has the ability to resist most fire damage.
The Atronach Stone fortifies magicka by 50 points and grants 50% spell absorption. We need the magicka to use higher level destruction spells in order to defeat tougher enemies. The spell absorption helps the Balrog survive against mages.
The Balrog uses conjuration to summon Flame Atronachs to fight along his side in battle. Once you have a level 100 conjuration, you will be able to summon two stronger atronachs to fight with you.
Dragonborn Flame will create a Fire Wyrm from the corpse of a foe killed by the Fire Breath shout.
Level 50 Perk Placement
Stat Placement - 2/3/2
We are going to be using Daedric as our main category for weapons and armor. Once you receive the quest the Horn of Jurgen Windcaller, travel to Solstheim and speak with Ralis Sedarys to get the Unearthed quest. You may follow the build or use Ahzidal's armor, which has its own enchants. We will be using Ahzidal as our helmet. I know you may say that the daedric helmet is better but Ahzidal's helm gives 50% Resist Fire and Fire spells do 25% more damage..
Abilities
Fire Up
You ignite yourself and rush into battle, burning all in your path. All targets on fire take extra damage. All of your dead enemies are sent to the Red Mountain to be reborn as Ash Spawn.
Requires: Ancestor's Wrath, Balrog's Whip, Conjure Ash Spawn
Searing Flames
You inhale air and exhale flame, incinerating all enemies that stand before the mighty Balrog. Your adrenaline increases forcing you to create multiple fire balls to hurl at your foes.
Requires: Fire Breath, Apprentice-Expert Fire Spell
Double Demon
You summon two of the best demons in all of Skyrim and allow them to fight at your side. They arise at your feet and follow the commands of their master.
Requires: Twin Souls Perk, Conjure Flame Atronach
True Form
You harness the power of a true demon, absorbing the souls of all of the dead and making the ultimate spell to vanquish all living. The fire ravages their viens which weakens their power.
Requires: Fire Storm, Ancestor's Wrath, Balrog's Whip
Hope you guys enjoyed the build! Be sure to leave recommendations on how I can improve the build! Thanks!
