I just started by joining the dawn guard and they gave me a crossbow. Which is better bow or crossbow? Where do I get bolts.. or the armor that they wear?
Also I was just turned werewolf.. I thought Dawnguard had new perk trees for wolf and vamp but I don't see one..
!.) My legendary crossbow actually does the same amount as my Daedric bow. Crossbows are cool and they look awesome on your back, but I've been a huge fan of regular bows since I first played TES so many years ago. So it would be hard for me to choose a crossbow over my beloved bow! I use both of them anyway.
2.) Crossbow bolts can be crafted at smithing forges just like you can make arrows now with Dawnguard. You can also find stronger Dwarven bolts in Dwemer ruins. I have over 200 Dwarven bolts now just from searching.
3.) Talk to the armorer and he can set you up with your set of Dawnguard armor.
4.) As for perk trees for Werewolves and Vampire Lords, you have to turn into one then hit the inventory button and it will bring up the perk tree. You don't use the usual perks earned from raising levels. You earn perks by killing enemies, feeding on them, etc.
Hope that helps!
