It actually takes around 900 Dwemer ingots, 450 iron ingots and 200 extra iron ore to go from 20 to 100 smithing while using the warrior stone and well rested bonus. Here is a video I made, just skip to the last minute or so for proof. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iG9h0Gyy3CA&feature=plcp

Zephyr has the highest base damage/second of any archeryweapons in the game, firing 1 arrow every 1.58 seconds, compared to the fastest non-unique bow in the game, the Long Bow, which fires 1 arrow every 1.81 seconds.

Just tested on my assassin: Zephyr fires faster than a long bow in my experience. I noticed long bow doesn't take as long to pull the string back as Zephyr, there appear to be actually nocking the arrow( affected by quick draw and Zephyr) and pulling the string back( not affected by quick draw and zephyr, though maybe it helped a little and I didn't notice), heavier bows take longer to pull the string, each bow( save Zephyr) takes the same amount of time to nock the arrow. So Dragonbone is still pretty viable when it comes to speed, it just takes an extra second or so to pull the string back. I'll stick to Zephyr for the faster firing rate and I don't want to craft that much( not even sure I'll try to get to Arcane Smithing). So both should certainly be taken into consideration :] *Note: I tested this on Xbox and pure observation, I tested with a long bow, Zephyr, Dwarven, and Dragon. I can't dispute any DPS stuff but I think Zephyr dropped weaker enemies quicker than the others but Dragon dropped heavy bitters quicker than the rest.

I think I'm going to try a modified version of this, using the bound bow instead though. Zero weight makes you move faster (use less stamina) and fire faster - with Quick Shot you're a veritable machine-gun. The bound/mystic bow is actually quite a bit faster than Zephyr. If you down to fort Amol with Lydia or Faendal, you can pick it up as early as level 4 or 5.
Food for thought... again, great build!

That pic reminds me of Green Arrow and Green Arrow rocks ! +1 for the build. I am going to play this with bow and go with some enchanting and use absorb stamina. I have to (sadly) as I'm a ps3 player
