So I am sitting here trying to think of how I want to set up my 2 new characters for Dawnguard, and I don't have a clue as to what I want to have. So perhaps if you guys tell me what your using I can better make a decision?

For the Dawnguard side I kind of wanted to go heavy armor warrior but then I thought about the crossbows, and how when facing a vampire it would be better to stay away from them... but to counter that I could carry lots of cure potions I guess or go werewolf... but RP wise, I have always thought being a werewolf/dragonborn hybrid as a little weird. So I'm conflicted there as to the best character for that. I also wanted to make this my new "main" character that does the civil war quest and MQ.

As for vampires, with the new spells and stuff... I can't really tell how much I should put into magic or where to level/add perks at. I'm not use to the vampire character as I always hated the way they were implemented in TES.

Any ideas or perhaps share your builds?

For Dawnguard : Archery, Light Armor, Alchemy, Destruction, Restoration,Sneak.

For Vampire : Mage Skills. (Restoration just for the necomage perk)
