I'm doing the "A new order" quest for the dawnguard and some girl is asking for some dwemer Gyros does anyone know where I can find them?

» Sat Nov 17, 2012 2:47 pm

yup, but your offensive spells are more than enough to stave that off

The only fire you really have to worry about is Dragon fire, but that can be easily mitigated a well.

What style is she suited for? Can she sneak without waking the (un)dead?

Now this is a difficult question... I haven't given her muffled boots and I really have only snuck past falmer. She seems to be a decent sneak. But if your in bruad daylight she get's spotted easily. Falmer take a tiny bit of time to get spotted. Generally in tight space where you walk skin to skin. Undeed I tend to snipe from a distance... But there have been occasions where I look back to loot them and they wake up... So I say she can do most things you need her to do. But don't make her pick up stacked items! I found this out yesterday. I dropped a stack of ten solid dwemer metal and when I went to trade she had one. She seems to turn stacks of an item into just one.

Can we smith new weapons/armor (aside from Dragonbone and arrows/bolts)?

A crown, shield, and staff. All sixy looking.

Is the weakness amplified or lessened or does it stay the same?

Oddly enough I came across bone hawk rings in larkons room. You can wear them as well.

Not sure, lessened i think. Especially since (For me at least) my meter will recharge in broad daylight while in VL form

You do not gain an extra weakness to fire in Vampire Lord form.

Oh I remember this. Just grab one from any ruin. At mzulft the armory has one hanging around in the armory so you wont have to fight/ go far to get it. I remember I took the mudcrab thing as something legitament and began murding mudcrabs. I loved that bit... Brilliant writing this time around.

How can you tell since you cant open your menu while in VL form?

An ugly Chiton Helmet

Lol just did "Awakening" Is it just me or are the vigilantes complete badasses?
For one, while being horribly tortured one of the vigilantes refused to give the vampires information.
Another one, Fought 4 vampires BY HIMSELF before going down, and taking 2 with him.
And to top it all off you go to there hall, its destroyed and there's like 3 vigilant bodies in a destroyed shack, with like 12 vampire and death hound corpses, How the hell does the dawnguard leader think there soft?!

its.... different?
Also, theres a Hawk Skull necklace or something. Im guessing this is connected to the FV?

Damage ratios. It's still the same 50% weakness. you can tell easier with a VL who doesn't have the Power of the Grave perk yet because there is no bonus to Health. The damage from a fire spell will do just as much damage as when your character is in normal vampire form.

I performed this test with a Dunmer Vamp at Stage 4, that way the weakness/resistance to fire negated each other to an even zero. The damage is the same in both forms.

Yup, giant ugly bugs hidden in secret areas...bring a pickaxe
The Bone hawks are flying above the Volkihar castle
