A long time ago, when I was doing a bunch of Vanilla builds, I had one named Bearcatwolf... basically just a Khajiit werewolf who wears the Stormcloak officer helmet. The problem is, it's mostly an unarmed build, and as we all know, Vanilla unarmed just...well, it's lame. Some choice mods, especially what I've been reading about Ordinator and some stuff you mentioned here, would definitely make that build more viable. Good stuff.
@carn114 Жыл бұрын
Yeah, for vanilla, you need to lean heavily on enchanting for the unarmed damage boost, and armor rating boost on the gauntlets. But when you transform, you lose both armor and enchantments. So, you have to rely solely on long lasting potions, alteration spells, conjuration, and destruction cloaks. Not as fun as having stuff available through perks

So you could be potentially stuck in Slow Time for quite a while, which could become tiresome, lol. Still really good for frenzied boss fights, like Harkon, though.

Since you like more game breaking build options, here are some things you can consider: - Replacing Frost with Fire due to its amazing synergy with flame cloak, conflagrate and war of the elements. Free 40% attack damage to any enemy hit by the flame cloak. A dead enemy is better than a frozen one (in the case for glacial prison). - Alchemy is a MUST for this build. Since you already invest in Alteration and have access to the Fabricate Object spell, it would be a waste not to make use of perks like Lab Skeever and the Fortify Potions enchantment from summermyst. You can use any potion that fortifies stamina, health or even elemental resistances (imo is preferable since you already hit the magic resistance cap with being a high level werewolf and agent of mara). Let's not forget perks like Stimulants, Crimson Haze and Maenad. - Human form gear. This isn't mentioned explicitly so my recommendations are robes with a focus on Fortify Alchemy, Fortify Potions, Amplify Alteration (for longer ebonyflesh/dragonhide since you don't want to always be reverting to human form to recast these spells, or to be limited by a timer like ocato's recital). Use robes for Regalia and also take all the enchanting strength perks. - Since crafting can now transfer some of its power over onto beast form as mentioned, you might want to look at races/deities that boost crafting. Or movement speed/stamina if you want to avoid crafting altogether.

I would agree about Alchemy. However, I'd say Alchemy could break the game with any build, especially if Destruction is involved in any way. FWIW, Alchemy is low-key the best skill in the game, modded or vanilla. I just have to be careful not to dominate every build guide with it. I had actually meant to give an honorable mention to Crimson Haze for the movement speed buff synergy, but had forgotten about it by the time I got there. Good pointer there! I was actually super close to picking Fire as my element as well, but Ice Storm in Spellscribe was just too good. Cutting through swaths of enemies felt really good. Though, there is plenty to be said for the scorched earth playstyle too. Thanks for the pointers, I love this stuff!
@lul61242 жыл бұрын
@@carn114 no worries! You're right about Alchemy. The potion magnitudes are crazy high and the scaling is just broken. I guess using ingame elixirs could be a good counter-balance? When choosing elements I found shock to be really good as well since shaving 25% of their hp means an effective 33% boost in dps. Also stops dragons from breathing fire, which growl werewolves have a weakness to. Anything works as you said, even a sun damage werewolf with hallowed burial is great.

Instead of making enemies easier to kill it makes them much harder to kill which is a huge let down for me. So, I'd probably play this as an Orc , Khajiit, Dunmer, or even a nord. Berserker rage plus worship of Malacath takes this build to the next level, and since you'll be spending most of your time in beast form making unarmed attacks you won't have to worry about the reduced enchantment strength. Alternatively, dunmer can also worship malacath, boost your armor rating, patch up your weakness to fire, and let you summon spirits.

The first build I have is an alchemy based build. The necessary mods are ordinator/vokrii, imperious races, andromeda standing stones, summermyst, and wintersun with immersive armors for the look. Additional mods you can add are alchemy overhauls, honed metal, and spell mods which add poison/disease spells. The build is a wood elf specifically for the harrier ability reducing enemy resistances which is a theme for this build, and the skills are two handed, heavy armor, and alchemy. For wintersun you are going to worship Namira or Z’en. Namira will reduce enemy poison resistance based on favor, and as a devotee when you poison an enemy you reduce their armor rating and deal additional poison and disease damage. For Z’en when you pray beneficial potions, and food you eat last twice as long, and are more powerful based on your favor and devotees get access to an extra dimensional storage space. Additional skills you can add are restoration for poison spells and further resistance shred, and speech to sell all your potions and for an animal companion. So, the build is a simple two handed warrior except with extremely deadly poisons, and powerful potions providing insane damage output and powerful long lasting buffs. By completion you’ll be reducing enemy armor rating by 550 plus your devotee power from Namira, and you’ll be reducing poison resistance of enemies by up over 100% in my experience allowing you to even poison undead. Your potions will give you something like 300% two handed, and other insane effects. With summermyst you are going to want to enchant your weapon with poison and disease damage, and enchant your armor with fortify potion duration and fortify potion strength if you have it. Other than that swing for the fences or blast away with spells and your set.
