I love the idea about tracking the dead thralls  really cool build.

Is everything here that you do to set up this build still intact? Like are there no patches that prevent the exploits?

You know, like duplicating the Blades armor sets as an example, and the compensation of gold for the "death" of your undead follower thralls.

He published this build less than two months ago. The last official patch was a year ago. Any method in this build will work as of the current official patch.

Also, armor duping isn't really a staple of the build. If you are unable or unwilling to duplicate the armor set, you could just leave your Blades Armor unenchanted and use a substitute set until you hit level 100 — or just grind your way there ASAP.

I suppose so. But since the armor set the follower was born with cannot be replaced (at least until they are recruited into the blades), I'll just stick with playing normally, reviving enemies with the standard zombie spells until both Conjuration and Enchanting are both level 100.

But wait, I was able to have Lydia equip Orcish Armor after smithing it while she was still alive... I just have it to her and she wore it. So the only reason the duping is necessary for the Blades armor set is because you can't get them anywhere else.

And you duplicate the armor by simply removing it from your thrall (alive or dead?) and fast travel? How does that work?

If you take armor off of a Thrall they'll revert back to their default armor. That's why he uses Blades Armor. Once they're inducted the Blades Armor becomes their default armor. Even if you tried to do it with regular armor, they would just revert back to their standard set from when they were alive.

Sick build! +1

Wait, what about character levels? Do you have to be Level 40 in order for your soon-to-be thralls level 40? Or do your thralls level with you anyway (meaning can I kill them without having to level up to 40 first)?

You, sir, are a legend.
