    I don't think I've ever come across another builder like you Jake. Definitely a unique way of presenting things and I think one day you'll find that golden format if you keep trying...

    It's just reading a little too clinical still, very 'listy'. You open the build and talk about potion stacking but then it's never mentioned again, I've still got no idea how it ties into the build(s)...

    It's 90% stats and 10% content. I disagree with people who say that your build has to be unique (although that does help), you can make a simple barbarian and still talk and present your build in an exciting way.

    But you really should try to talk about something! (your gameplay preferably) All you do here is list how each skill works (the uesp can do that) but a reader will want to know how they tie in with the character. People who look for a build already know about the skills, they need a strong concept to make those skills worth taking on a fresh playthrough...

    90% stats and 10% content. Try to balance this out and maybe try your hand at a nice perk spread rather than linking to the calculator.

    I think the build is laid out well and it's a good concept I I have to disagree with your alignment choice for Molag Bal's Vessal. Morag Bal is the Daedric prince or Domination,Enslavement and Rape where as Merhunes Dagon is the Daedric lord of Change,Energy and Destruction. Personally Molag Bal seems much worse and I believe the Vessals should be Chaotic Evil. But other then that great build +1 from me.
    Also for the Vessel of Molag Bal how high were the Stamina and Health Regen.

    Aye, but the alignment would have to classify each class, in that case wouldn't Mehrunes Dagon be more fitting with Chaotic Evil?

    Molag bal is mainly deals with the aspect of domination and enslavement, if you look at the world today, isn't that what the corporate world is today? HR and employment is just another way of viewing domination and enslavement and when looked in that way it fits more along the lines of Lawful Evil. Just in this case Molag Bal is the head honcho that wants to bend you to his/her will.

    I used the base vessel to enchant my gear (mainly because I didn't have much Daedric hearts to craft more than 2 sets of boots/gauntlets) so my stamina and health regen was sitting at 55% purely from the Lady, I'd reckon it could be taken far far higher if I taken the liberty and waited and enchanted it at full enchanting.

    Thanks I'll take that as a compliment I suppose, and as with most my other builds I'll continue to refine them when time allows it.

    I'm sorry if I haven't made myself clear. This to me is my unique take on a build that encompasses 2 variations of an unarmed conjurer that encompasses around a unique premise of being a literal vessel for a specific Daedric prince to become a figurative Daedric Deus Ex Machina.

    As for the build in question, it was written in an abridged format.. all the necessary information and what have you are listed there in an orderly fashion. I apologize if the format happens to be foreign to you, it seems to be the case with the blog so you aren't the only one.

    One last thing, the build in question isn't at all mage, you're basically an acolyte which is nothing more than an unarmed fighter with fluency in magic (think Spellsword only replace "sword" with "fist").

    Do you base the chart of the Dungeons and Dragons Alignment System or your own system.

    Just a thought, How well could you fit Illusion into the Vessel of Molag Bal Path? His dominance over others could be expressed through Illusion and just to me seems to fit.
