Dawnguard DLC Discussion - Thread #36 : V - Skyrim

This is all wild speculation and I am sure it will work out in the game

Are character perks such as Twin Souls going to affect you when you are a vampire lord, will you be able to summon two Gargoyles? If so what other character perks will affect you while you are a Vampire Lord?

Was just wondering because I want to make the strongest Vampire Lord I possibly can.

I am thinking that we will get to summon two Gargoyles. I will be upset if we don't.... I would imagine that all perks work the same in both Forms.

but no magic for mounted combat. at least officially. a mod allows this, but Bethesda did not.

I am unsure, however, are also "standard" vampires revamped for this release? in appearance and powers?

So there are going to be different powers an etc as a regular Vampire post dawnguard DLC?

As far as we know, yes. But no one has said a great deal on the subject.

"Additionally, all of the vampires we have in the game we went back and added a new look to them, new abilities, we mixed in some new creatures. So this is an overhaul to vampires in general, even if they aren't on part of the story on Dawnguard."

I guess so.

Expect Vampire Covens to be very, very scary...

AHA! so I was not drunk! vamps are getting a facelift AND a revamp (excuse the pun) of gameplay!

Fresh news (at least I think so) !

Soul Cairn will be merely one of at least two new large landmasses added by Dawnguard. There will be rivalries among vampire clans (another vampiric clan being the Daughters of Coldharbor). There'll be at least one very good quest and a very nice dungeon totally unrelated to the Vampire vs Dawnguard stuff.

I'm a bit perturbed by the fact that both Todd Howard and the bald bearded guy at E3 seemed to skirt the question when they were asked how long after the xbox exclusivity for Dawnguard would it take for it to come to pc/ps3. We've been told 30 days already, so why would they both dodge this question a couple times in various E3 videos?

My favourite hypothesis? Cause they'll need more time to offer us pc guys a Dawnguard High resolution texture pack, and an Dawnguard 1.1 update with paswwalling through ice and real bats you can interact with... Let's stay optimistic ! :banana:

confirmed that as vampire lord one can only use vampire lord abilities. predictable, but dammit! a mod is in order!

I wonder whether Lamae Beolfag will be one of the Coldharbor Daughters... There is still hope to hear the mourning cries of the Shrieking Winds! :celebration:

Awesome! Pureblooded vampires! Nice! I love how this ties in with the fanfiction I wrote! And no a single lore piece was broken!

Has any one heard or gotten there codes for the beta yet or no I'm kind of chilling to see if I get one any one else with me

Nice find. I'll add it to the OP.

It does not say the Daughters of Coldhabour are a different vampire clan. Just that they are pure and followed Molag Bal. It could be pureborn vampires that worship Molag.

Disappointed about forced 3rd person and being unable to use vampiric abilities at will (in human form I mean), but this is getting me more excited.

Also, did anyone else have to copy paste the text into this window to be able to read it?

this DLC sounds amazing...i really hope mods come to console, but wasn't dawnguard meant to come with dragon mounts?

I wonder if they carry a different infection than standard vampires?

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 2:59 pm

First I've heard of that.

It was found in the patch files of the game. So we may get Dragonmounts.
