    A lot of these high level perks are taken because 1, I'm only using 5 skills, so I need to fill them up, and 2, because sweep and paralyzing strike are still moves that open up with the perk, the backwards power attack and the sideways power attack. Plus, I think the Ebony Blade heals 30 pts per person hit with Sweep!

    Sneak was a no-brainer to me. It's all in-game, on-screen, controller-based mechanics that flow naturally with most playstyles, and especially this one. Flow was my main concern, and taking redundant perks only reinforces it.

    And as far as taking all these perks, I wasn't looking to budget. With only 5 skills, I can waste 2 perks for Block Runner, or use 3 in Deep Wounds.

    Nobody forces you to put the highest possible perk spread. In fact would've been better if you posted say level 30 one, because many people don't play that far and tend to stop at around level 30-35.

    That's true, but leveling up happened very easily, too. There was almost always one relevant perk available every time I leveled up. And this is very much the same character at level 30 as he is at level 50.

    I can see how it'll work that way and it shows how good is your character. And you also mentioned key perks in the build... Still I think having level 30/35 perk spread will only benefit the overall presentation :)

    Cool, can I use that? I'm very open to suggestions for the name and story. I am poorly versed in ES and samurai lore.

    I don't see any reason why not. It's not my place to tell you whether you can or can't use certain names for your own build. xD

    So long as there isn't another build on here using the name ronin. Might be something to check.

    Here's an image I planned on using in my own Orc Samurai, but you can use it if you'd like to.
