     I love this build! I was looking for a good vampire lord archer build for a while and I think I may have found the one! +1 for sure, keep up the good work.

    I'm pleased to add the 100th like. Especially enjoyed reading about those unique weapons. My playthrough will probably have to wait untill i can pick up dawnguard though. Anyways, good job on the build

    Thank you very much :D This means it's LEGENDARY :D I'm really glad so many people like this build, especially cause it's my  first build I ever wrote and posted here. If you like, check out my other build linked from here. Personally I think it's even better than this build ;)

    This looks like a really great build, and I'm looking forward to giving it a go very shortly, although without the mods, as my PC is only capable of running Skyrim on low, and the last time I added mods they did strange to the graphics, and I had to uninstall them all.  Anyway, I digress...

    I'm curious about your comment about the Whispering Door quest.  It's certainly a good idea to do this from the point of view of roleplay, but 'good reward with good enchantment' suggests to me that you used the Ebony Blade, which seems a bit odd when One-Handed is preferred to Two-Handed.  What am I missing?

    Thank you for the kind words, you will enjoy the play through :) About the mods: these mods really just add new armor or make already available armor craftable, but it is totally playable and enjoyable without mods ;)

    Damn, you just uncovered a huge mistake from my side. It shouldn't be 'Whispering Door' at all ! How I came to write this, is beyond me. I'm really sorry for the confusion. At the moment I can't remember exactly what quest it should be, but I think it should be 'Pieces of the past'.

    I can't believe I didn't notice this mistake...

    Pieces of the Past is also available at level 20, and Mehrunes Razor can be used quite well by this character I suspect, so I also think that you meant this quest ;).

    Not a bad build by any stretch of the imagination. It looks solid and you have a lot of images and tips, which is always great. One thing, though - I don't like Auriel's Shadow. It doesn't make a lot of sense to me that an Aedra would have created that kind of weapon, especially one with such a run-of-the-mill ability. Aedric and Daedric artifacts are powerful and strange, so it just feels... off for it to just be a Fear and Magicka Damage elven bow.
