Build Recommendations

    @BlueDremora:  The help thread for mechanics questions about the game can be found in the Tips & Tricks group Questions/Requests Discussions POST QUESTIONS HERE  However David is correct the reason is because all cloak and rune spells aren't affected by the elemental effect perks (Intense Flames, Deep Freeze, Disintegrate) in the case of Aspect of Terror the perk looks at the fear effect of fire spells and boosts their damage however the cloak and rune don't have the fear effect so they miss out.  Also note that you don't need the Intense Flames perk to get the Aspect of Terror boost however for best effect you should take both Augmented Flames Perks before you take Aspect of Terror.  If you are interested I would suggest checking out my Pyromancer build which makes heavy use of this.

    Couldt find the help thread so asking here:

    Does the "Aspect of Terror" perk from the illusion tree work with flamecloak? I'm working on a build and I want to know if this would be viable...

    No, Aspect of Terror only affects flame spells like Flames and such forth, but not Flame Cloak and Fire Rune.

    Thanks David! A bummer though... had a really good idea there. Ohh well, back to the working table.

    Thanks for the advice Vargr. I belive I already read that build but I think it was back on the .ning homepage. But if cloak and runes dont work, will firewall then? I really hope spells besides flames work with this.

    @BlueDremora:  The AoT bug/glitch/exploit whatever you want to call it will work on all fire spells except Fire Rune and Flame Cloak.  So yes it will work with Firewall.

    Hello  everyone.
    I need some suggestions about a build i'm looking to play. I like builds that use a lot of skills like The Heretic from Mason or the Order of judgment from Oneness. I don't know if these builds are considered "Jack of all trades" but i'm looking for something like that. Any reccomendations are appreciated.
    *edit* I also adore mixed armor sets.

    Thank you.

    Hey there! You might like the Shao'kai. It's a warrior jack of all trades with a pretty badass mixed ninja armor combo.

    The other way to achieve unlimited concentration casting is displayed by Mason's Hall of Fame Seraphim using the atronach stone. Sometimes referred to as the "ultimate atronach". 

    One other option (sort of) is creating and "endless" magicka pool using equilibriium / blood magic as displayed by Noodles and friends in The Twilight of Meridia

     

    Close but not quite. I think the build Im looking for did something funky with circle of protection to get back insta recharge magicka as long as you stood in the circle. 

    The build you're looking for is The Force Adept by Curse Never Dying but I don't think it is on here anymore. I can't seem to find it. It used the circle of protection as a battery of sorts

    Though it's no longer on the Vault, a Google search turned it up on The Skyrim Calculator:

    The Force Adept

    Hello all, I was just wondering if anyone knows of an archery build, that uses the unlimited stamina trick?  I don't know of any real reason to go that route instead of shields but it seems like there might be an interesting build there :)
