    Here you can find exactly how many XP you get for which spell :) And really, Raise Zombie and Bound Sword grant more XP than anything on low level.

    By the way, if you don't have smithing/enchanting, what is your armor rate? Does it hit the level cap this way? And if yes, when? :)

    I don't know why I didn't think to read that page when testing rather than taking photographs of exp chunks to send to Ben C...

    Armor capped by about level 44 for me but I was also running ancient knowledge by then so I'm unsure if it caps with just the perks.

    Man tanking is easier with ancient knowledge! Armor jumped from 270 to 347! this guy is a fucking dread tank.

    Yeah, I'd better add that to the build. Capping armor is usually when I start to feel 'done' with a character actually, I think it's a subliminal goal with me...

    Checked GAmulet with Amulet of Talos last night, Worked!

    Ahh ok, Ancient knowledge's in-game text is not true and grants 25% bonus armor for any matching armor set. So you don't need smithing at all to reach 567 armor? good to know :P To be honest, I never bothered about the atronach forge. Till today :D

    It's worse than that. Ancient Knowledge works on everything EXCEPT dwarven armor, it's a pretty unforgiveable mistake by Beth in my opinion...

    My kingslayers armor is at about 540+ with all the perks and AK. My HA skill is at about 85 so he may just about nip the cap...

    Why did you choose a Vampire for this build; the 25% better sneak or is there something else that I do not understand?

  • December 17, 2013

    For me it was purely a faction thing Volkan...

    Daedric just doesn't fit in with many of the factions because of its alien look. It works nice with the Volkihar and is passable with the Brotherhood.

    Being a vampire keeps you out of the daylight as well and daedric looks great at night with the red glow animations.

    If i'd wrote "Go join the companions..." I think this build would have been ruined...

    I have a question about the galdur amulet bug. Does being a vamp negate it? I can't find an amulet to work with it.
