The Whiteskull Captain [Skyrim Vanilla Pirate Build] S5E1

[@Skypothesis]

Welcome back! Just FYI, this is a pure vanilla season - when it’s over we’ll go back to AE builds :)

[@easternsheep6995]

Happy switch noises! (I didn't expect the switch version to get the Anniversary Edition. It was a pleasant surprise for sure!)

[@NaveSutlef]

That's fine, but could you maybe add a quick "if you have CC, this would go well with it" kinda section? Like how you were talking about going over older builds with CC content.

[@MarioRocket]

Thank you friends, just what I needed to come back to skyrkm

[@hippos_rock3855]

Oh, great! I'm really excited for more vanilla builds. I'm secretly hoping for another alchemy-focused build, those are my favorite but they're very few and far between haha

[@jaspercurtisfry]

Been loving all the builds you guys have shown to us keep up the great work, the whiteskull clan builds have been fun and using the ship home from the creation club helps me with the roleplay for them.

I can see the call of storms mixing well with this build as he calls forth the torrential hurricanes he and his crew fought through, now at his command

[@ryhi5]

Just like the maelstrom that was summoned in the Climax of the third Pirates Movie!

[@chrisanders713]

I would like roleplaying the Bear helmet as trophies of victory over a rival pack of Werebears.

[@AngelicImp8641]

For those with Anniversary Edition, you have a good few options for homes. There's Shadowfoot Sanctum in the Ratway of Riften, works well to show off all his treasures. There's also Dead Man's Dread, a pirate ship which fits perfectly, but unfortunately has less utility. The Ebony Scimitars would look great, but I would stick with Bloodscythe and Soulrender. You could still add the Ebony Scimitars to your collection of treasure though.

[@pancakes4193]

Ahhh, so another Whiteskull did escape! So glad to have you guys back!

[@ryhi5]

Would be nice to headcanon that the captain and the Warlock eventually reunite.

The atmosphere you seem to capture in your videos and builds is just my vibe. Excited for season 5!

[@Skypothesis]

Thank you so much!!

[@mikelang717]

Yesss. More vanilla content. As someone sadly still stuck on the Xbox 360(temporarily), builds like these are greatly appreciated.

[@thepriorstone4064]

You guys single-handedly made me rethink how I play Skyrim. Thank you guys for giving this game a breath of fresh air that it very much needed

[@jokerdust4298]

I like the exploding crossbow bolts because they remind me of the old flintlock pistols .

[@CastleGoCrash]

The whiteskull warlock might be my favourite of your characters, can't wait to see what you did with this one!

[@doctorvoid2998]

I've seen... so many builds in my time None of them capture the essence of skyrim's roleplay aspect as much as YOURS, skypothesis, keep making builds that YOU enjoy, and may Talos guard you.

[@theelderscrolls_area]

I was waiting for it, thanks 😁

[@jvmoony]

King Of Ghost special move is awesome ! The animations and the transformation is immersively pleasing. Well done and good job.

[@donho8484]

First thing I see waking up, couldn't be happier

[@Cronoo]

Ooo dead man's dread ship from ae makes a perfect home base for this guy.

[@easternsheep6995]

THE LEGENDS HAVE RETURNED!!

[@nikki-writes2685]

AHH this build looks like so much fun!!! I can't wait to play it; I've always collected the death brand armor just for the sake of displaying it, but I'm excited to have a reason now to actually use it functionally! Thank you guys for your awesome ideas

[@fitokingsalem7414]

OH WOW, the first build of this season is a Pirate Build, what a treat. I'm excited to see the rest

[@midnightcas9995]

Ooooh some expanded lore for this build!!!! So excited!

[@MasterThief009]

My favorite thing about all of these builds are when you guys are able to mention one of your other builds. The idea that of every character potentially happening at once while all interchangeably being the Dragonborn or a side character met in passing is so dang cool.

[@zimattack9994]

Build idea a khajiit alchemist who uses his knowledge of plants to cast spells with zero investment in magika. Iv done this and you can cast flame cloak at lv 1 if you know what your doing

[@pablito8497]

Hell yeah ! Great stuff, cant wait for the rest of the season.

[@Skypothesis]

Thanks man!! 🙏

[@andrewcraney1532]

It's here!

[@TakingTheMick1008]

Nice, so excited to see what you guys have cooked up this time!

[@jamesmeachin3941]

This build feels so fresh

[@beckthedeck1883]

It’s been a long 10 months without a Skyrim build, missed it!! 🤘🏻

[@glowingsquib9380]

My favorite backstory so far. Glad to see a new one of these!

[@LikeGamesfamilia]

these videos are amazing

[@edwardmeyers4466]

Just wanted to point out that the ebony and nordic crossbows would look great for a pirate build.

[@AngelicImp8641]

Understatement and a half, friend. I think I'd go for the Nordic Crossbow, personally.

[@m.a.t.6841]

Wow. It has been a while since I watched your last video of this series. Glad to see the quality of your builds is still on point. This build already is strong enough but in case you’d need more damage this build perfectly synergizes with the fortify archery potion as it boosts your unarmed damage as a werewolf, your damage with weapons and of course your crossbow damage. Anyway I wonder why I feel like I know this particular blaster Argonian ?

[@TheVirtuoso_AB]

Definitely wanna set him up with a home out by the water

[@ASTROLXGHT]

YEEE THE CAPTAIN OF THE WHITE SKULL LESS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SKYPOTHESIS , Oh I love this channel

[@Akatsukimember6]

Time to stare at the Skyrim CD for a while and say: “I’m home old friend”

[@adamb4140]

Incredible video as always, so happy to see you guys back

[@MeanAndPristine]

It’s so good to have you guys back! A character that’s a worshipper in a cult for dragons or daedra would be really cool in the future; Anniversary Edition added a lot of content for Clavicus Vile in particular

[@diteamiciedentrate]

I'm late, one must love youtube not notifying the subscribed channels... too bad we can't sail in Skyrim, this pirate is quite a pedestrian :))

[@Nexus-X001]

[@HeavyDutyDetailing]

Another banger in the Skypothesis Cinematic Universe!

[@NaveSutlef]

I don't know how you keep coming up with these builds, every one of them are absolutely amazing!

[@GailOlm]

It's great to see you back! I love his backstory and the tie-in to the Whiteskull Warlock. I liked his character development and story arc. I look forward to the upcoming Season 5 builds. :)

[@zephyr835]

From the teaser, I thought this would be the Deadeye Phantom, also thinking the other Whiteskulls would still be on the cutting room floor. I may actually prefer this build to the Warlock since it's a bit more focused in playstyle and factions. I love the use of Deathbrand as the Captain's ultimate goal, like Miraak for the Oblivion Sentinel. Coincidentally, I had considered the Sentinel switching to Deathbrand's scimitars but it's a much stronger roleplay element for this guy. The particular use of the Deathbrand armor is interesting, and as another comparison, it's similar to the way I've been using the Nightingale set for the Imperial Spectre. I'm super excited to see what else is coming for this season!

[@DariusAI]

Hope there’s a sneak preview for each video, guessing a pirate build was kinda fun. Great video!

[@chrisanders713]

This is the perfect mix of the White Skull Warlock and The Saxhleel Vagabond! I would love to do this playthrough!!

[@eliasrichardson130]

Omg the captain

[@leocossey6190]

You guys should put a section in your vanilla builds that say how you can add anniversary edition content that fits the build. Great Video by the way

[@stephenbesley3177]

Great to see you guys back. You give great ideas not just for builds, but for ways of adapting other builds also. I have been side tracking into other games but I know the pull of Skyrim is always strong. I guess we are all mostly fed up waiting for Hammerfell and I sometimes think well.... just exand Skyrim into Hammerfell or whatever. Heaven knows, Bathesda takes long enough anyway. Get more staff Bathesda if you want to survive

[@grl7753]

Beautiful presentation and detail, as always. So glad you're back with a new season, I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us.

Great build! One build I'd like to suggest is Pelinal Whitestrake build using wepons and armor from Divine Crusader, which comes in anniversary edition.

[@Fembell]

yay, welcome back probably needed the break im sure even if not ready elden ring videos took over for a bit there.

[@Infinitystar225]

It's great to see you hit the ground running with such a cool build.

[@computer__eyez]

Good to see you guys back. I’ve been overdosing these last two weeks on your vids. Running some of your builds on my switch. Request: Necromancer that raises dead nearby as zombie only? • No conjuring spectral minions, drauger, etc.. this would be a straight up, raise zombies from nearby dead build. I would love to see where your creativity takes this kind of build. I am aware of your auromancer build, but it’s not raise read only.

[@Skypothesis]

Hmm, we posted a build on the Sky Forge called the Phantom Deadeye that raises one minion, and then uses the other minion for whatever summon is needed. It would be a fun challenge to switch up that build so it's only raised summons.

[@garybirch2520]

Awesome comeback

[@wookieschnitzel7595]

I have been anxiously awaiting this!! The Thor build is the strongest there is but I'm thirsty for another Skypothesis playthrough!

[@johnrotio3862]

Just found your channel and subbed...started on this season but I'm definitely gonna binge all you Skyrim content... Thx for making these videos all the best to you and yours

[@Skypothesis]

Thanks for dropping by, hope you enjoy :)

[@robertpolk6596]

Welcome back guys! Cool build too. I was hoping for an interesting werewolf build and you did not disappoint! Cool special moves to boot! Since seeing him take on the aspect and armor of the legendary pirate, I was wondering... could you make a character build around taking on the aspects of elemental warriors? Say the character has simple robes like a monk or something, and when he activates the elemental aspects, his armor transforms into elemental armor of fire, ice, or lightning. That would be so cool if you guys could make that work. Thanks again for all your awesome content!

[@Skypothesis]

There's an old build on the Tamriel Vault called "The Salamander" that does the elemental form transformations, but stays with the same armor. That would be fun to shake it up and swap out the armor with the forms. Edit: Found it: www.tamrielvault.com/groups/topic/view/group_id/3/topic_id/1292

[@johnherrera5261]

It's really cool having you guys fish out a faction of your own

[@paladinheadquarters7776]

That’s creative. 👍

[@chilufyachimfwembe9149]

🎉AMAZING🎉 love the build so much I am using it in my play through with a twist….seeing as you have more than one White Skull character I thought why not make one too. This character is a redguard pirate and happens to be the first mate of the White Skull Pirates. Changed somethings so he isn’t the same like adding blocking and becoming the wielder of Windshear and Targe of the Bloodied. Thanks for the inspiration…heck maybe I will see that build or another White Skull pirate build.

[@Fierygundam3325]

for a home for this guy I suggest the dead man dread house from the creation club it would fit the character very well plus it just cool just having your own ship
