    While we're listing wintery builds, found these:

    The Cryomancer by Vargr

    The Winter Warrior by Anubis

    The Winterborn by Garthar

    The Winter Bear by Long Chapper

    The Kamal by Henson

    The King of Winter by Ebony blade

    And Noodle's Potent Blizzard Glitch

     

    Probably plenty more but the site is acting up and not cooperating...enjoy!

    Site has been acting up at the moment and can't search for a build but I 'll tell you what I played last time as a bruiser build which was an orc mystic type of build. I used Bound Battleaxe from conjuration (no summons though), Destruction Cloaks (trained with Faralda and used ocato's recital spell from Apocalypse mod to cast it also you can find flame cloak in a fixed location), Alteration - armor and some other minor spells, Alchemy and a bit of Restoration for the oh shit gotta run and heal situation. If you play with mods I suggest Ordinator, Imperious Races, Andromeda standing stones, Complete alchemy and cooking overhaul, Apocalypse Spells. The general idea is buff yourself up with spells potions, poisons and then go in for the fun.

    After about a year away from Skyrim, I  decided to run a "SnowCat" (khajiit) version of Vargr's Cryomancer, with the Blizzard path. Having fun with my snow white kitty mage. Just about to snuff out Ancano and become Arch Mage around level 21. I forget how fast you can level up in Skyrim if you know the drill. Level 70 Alteration (stability perk) in no time using detect life in Whiterun for example :)

    Now...about that master level destruction spell...

    Hi there o/

    Wondering if anyone could direct me to a modded Pyromancer style build? Secondary skills don't bother me too much, but would like to avoid alchemy if possible as i'm not really a fan.

    Any suggestions are great, thanks!

    I don’t necessarily know of an outright MODDED pyromancer build on the site. Vargyr has a really good vanilla Pyromancer build which is sneakily-named “The Pyromancer”. It should work perfectly with spell mods. It would be a great one to try the Spell Research mod with: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/20983

    Don't like Spell Research honestly, takes too long and I don't have a huge amount of time, but i'll take a look the The Pyromancer build, thanks!

    Hello all, does anyone know a good alchemist build for Ordinator?  I am thinking it could be useful to try out a new build.

    I've not quite finished it yet but my Witch Arrow build is heavily based around alchemy and poison use. I've done enough of it that you should be able to get a good measure of the build. I have a full perk spread detailing all odinator skills etc. Check it out if you like. As far as other Ordinator alchemy builds go nothing comes to my mind, I can only think of vanilla builds. Let me know if you like it , if you check it out anyway man ! :)
