    Bloody hell, let's not get into an argument here.

    I made the second video to show how Dawnguard content could be used in the build, and then created the two 'base' paths around my existing build videos. You could really argue either way, it doesn't really matter; it's not like it really means anything anyway

    Sadly no its heavy, but if you want the Regen from the perk Wind Walker, you'll have to favourite a light equivalent and then simply equip the Vizage when you want to use the move.

    Correction: There's two videos, only one is embedded; the other is in a link below to save space

    Thanks MF, I think the Stalhrim just looks perfect for this build, if I had Dragonborn before I had made this build it probably would of been tier 2 but I like how it panned out.

    An that is too bad.

    Did you use the same "build-frame" for the new edition? I mean, Did u use the same char in tier three, or did you do a new char overall?

    Same one, I just levelled him up further to get the new perks/points. 

    I used un-enchanted gear however to make some fights last longer. Like the one with the 3 bandits near the end of the video.

    The only prob with that is that so many talents are already in the Light Armor tree that would become redundant if I just use heavy armor and then place points in that tree.

    The Dwarven armor is great and all as well as the crossbow, but to fit the Aether style ( a bluish liquid ) the Stalhrim armor set fit this perfectly, also came in light armor.

    People can choose heavy armor from the start and go with dwarven armor and then get the Visage of Mzund to match, but for those who already made a Aether Engineer and used tier 1 then tier 2, this tier 3 is a natural progression of armor.

    Ultimately you can use the dwarven xbow instead of the stalhrim bow, the great thing about this build is you can mix and match any of the armor from tier1,2,3 to suit what you like.
