Played this build before it was legendary, but I didn't have an account back then so I'm liking it now, loved the speed of the build. This build deals with damage by avoiding it and dodging rather than tanking or blocking, using magic spells and shouts to give you oppurtunities to burst out allot of damage in between.
One of the best spellsword builds on the blog
I actaully had an extra special move on my Skystrider playthrough:
If you have all three words in Slow Time shout and you cast Ice Storm at an enemy you can actually move allot faster than the Ice Storm, so fast that you can cast atleast 3 storms while running towards an opponent and reaching him/her/it before the storms reach the opponent. So basically if I engaged a battle with a group of enemies I would slow time equip Ice Storm in both hands (I had the daul-casting perk) and cast multiple ice storms at enemies as I charge into battle then I had the oppurtunity of 3 or 4 staggers which all happen in slow motion and super speed daul wield attacks that also stagger the opponent your focusing on. This move worked great for elliminating the mage or archer in a group, or taking out one strong opponent in a group while the rest are staggered and take damage from your cloak and ice storms. It brings the numbers to 1vs1 for the duration of the Slow Time staggers, and since this build already uses Alteration the Stability perk wasn't far out of reach to increased my Slow Time duration. Great move for initiating a fight. Oh, and I forgot to mention I used throw voice while crouched sometimes to pull the eniemies together before doing this. Felt like casting an avalanche every time, and just felt fitting to the build. So I wanted to share it
