    Really nice work here, Albino! Fits the theme perfectly for dragon week.

    Thanks Rogue! Yeah, this is a good time for this build to pop up on the radar again. :)

    Mind if I add a link to this to the 100% Fortify Shouts guide over in T&T? I've been meaning to update it for a while, and it could definitely use new reference builds when I get around to that.

    Shameless self-promotion: I made a video a while back that shows specifically how to do the chat glitch with Amulets of Talos -- it doesn't work quite the same way as in the video you linked to (or at least, it didn't for me). I found I had to give the five amulets to my follower, then equip them one by one from his inventory, because they wouldn't stack if I tried to equip them directly from my own inventory. The video uses Vampire Lord form, but it works the exact same way in either case.

    Regarding the earlier comments about the temple priest robes, another option for killing a temple priest without actually "killing" him would be to temporarily fortify his health (e.g., via an illusion spell or a poison with a secondary Fortify Health effect). Then damage him any way you like until his remaining Health is less than the Fortify Health effect you applied. When the effect wears off, he'll die, but it won't be credited as a kill to you.

    I've always wanted to investigate the idea of a level 1 build (future event?  :p ), but I think this has to be the definitive one. Nice build for sure, sorry I overlooked it till now.

    Of course I don't mind free advertising for my build in your T&T discussion, so long as you don't mind free advertising for your T&T discussion in my build. :P

    Good video, I'll add a link to that in the build too.

    Personally, I'm still not a fan of killing the Temple Priest that way since you're still attacking him and (even though the game doesn't recognize it) killing him. That being said, it's a good method for those who'd want to use the Temple Priest Robes with this build.

    I wouldn't suggest it for an event, but further exploring the idea of a level 1 build would be interesting. Glad you like the build Teccam. :)
