Excellent.
The most appealing thing about this build, for me, is not having to ever go into a menu screen in the middle of a battle. I just finished playing a mage, and I must not have built him very well because I spent half the time in the favourites menu.

If I recall correctly, this build has been legendary for quite awhile... But since playing it (and later a couple of other Henson's builds) finally encouraged me to become first a regular follower and now a member of this site, I felt I had to give it another +1 as the first thing I write here.
I have actually played it both as a hammer-wielding old fogey, as well as a mace-and-board equipped, otherwise similar guy. Both ways were extremely enjoyable, Henson is a true master when it comes to coming up with immersive roleplay ideas. Like someone (Mason or Ponty?) said earlier, this build gets people to crank difficulty up to Master and tread carefully

I made a character like this several weeks ago, it as fun, making a old orc pass his prime who wants to find a good death. My goal was to get to at least level 32 without dying, During Level 31 I was fighting several draugr deathlords and a Hulking, I was wearing Orcish armor, a Ebony War hammer of absorb health and chaos damage, I was in a Solsteim ruin, and as a killed everything the undead threw at such as several incarnations of Frost Astronach, I was killed finally by the Dragon Preist Ahzidal.
I did many quest, was able to finish the main questline, the companions, The Dawnguard Questline, and the Dragonborn questline, I found this crypt not far from and started the quest for it. I had to fight a preist...and after several blows to of magic I died...right as I was leveling up. ): so sad...I then made an Orc Assassin :D Best fun I had yet.
Also I used Berzerker Rage on Alduin...it worked great...and used the Dwarven Crossbow against Harkon as well as the Auri-El Bow. lol
I play on xbox but have several profiles just for skyrim.
I made a warrior Orc before this one... and I gotta say...this was more fun. lol I love the build my friend...so did Erogur The Old

Im currently using this build. It's really enjoyable actually. However, there is one combo/special move that works very well. Using the Elemental Fury shout along with Berserker Rage is a really powerful combo. Doubling your attack with Berserker and with the DPS increase with Elemental Fury will destroy just about everything. I realize that this takes away from enchanted weapons but still a worth tactic to consider.

This is a truly great build taken from a surprisingly tough NPC. But I have yet to see the old orc wear anything other than leather armour with a low-level sword, but I realise that that would be stupid and that you didn't try to copy the old orc character. Also it wouldn't fit the role play to use the same quipment as him.
