Feel free to ask questions, also if i missed any let me know but i think i covered everything

I's waiting fo dis.

umm...i dont quite understand...elaborate perhaps?

I think he's waiting for this DLC.. Maybe..

A question: Can you wear all the vampire amulets at the same time? (I'm on PS3)

1 amulet and 1 ring at a time

Unfamiliar with ebonics I see.
Translation:I was waiting for this.

Aight das fine

-Falmer Heavy or Hardened Armor, Heavy, Full Set

That is what i said, what of it?

I'm glad they added the new falmernarmor the old one was ugly.

You're right haha

Edit: BTW no craftable Bone Hawk Ring?!? Really Beth?

No but one of the amulets becomes useless after you get the attack bats perk so that narrows down the choice its just deciding what ring to wear

Actually the Bats amulet also affects the Bat swarm power, making it where you drain a ton of most enemies health when you swarm past them

Thank you, now I'll have to decide which ones are better for my vampires

The Ancient Falmer looks soo good

- Locket of Saint Jiub: Stamina +50 and weight capacity +50, also is light armor. My Light armor skill is 44 with 3 perks in Agile Defender, and the locket has armor rating of 8.

Thnx, updated

If you want you can duplicate it with The Ritual Stone sinds the mannequin duplication is out past 1.6... just raise Arch-Curate Vyrthur and go through the portal.

so, call my clueless but i've only just started DG. Did i miss something while i was in the fort? I've found Dawnguard helm, boots & shield but no armor???? I know my xbox has been weird lately, occasionally not rendering items & only finding them by either tripping over them or by sweeping searches of areas but i would have thought you were presented the whole set of armor to go off & hunt vamps? Can ya help out a L51 Nord with close to 400 loving hours played. (reading all the gripes about DG are causing me worry now... did i just blow my cash?)

The DG chest piece is not lying around the fort ever, but after yu recruit Gunmar and Sourine you can speak to Gunmar and he will give you a full set AND he can sell you all of the armor variants as well

thanks so much. i thought i was going crazy looking for it. sort of felt like it was supposed to be presented at the beginning like the TG stuff. thought it was weird that they would give you incomplete armor with a great perk that only applies if you have all of it but can't obtain it. i was beginning to think i had to wait until i found a dead DG & take it from them.

Despite all the gripeing i've read in the forums & the annoying glitches & hiccups i've experienced on my 360 i still prefer to live in the TES world hoping that Beth hears our pleas for a fully functioning product. I may even shell out & get Skyrim for my laptop.
