    Gaenor is now a permanent fixture in Mournhold. His regeneration prevents his death from hunger, but his strength never recovers. He lacks the power to even speak at this point.
    All refer to him as the Ebony Statue now

    An Altmer Battlemage has been my go to for both Oblivion and Morrowind since I first played one on Skyrim. I used a similar strategy to defeat Gaenor, except for using hungers instead of bonewalkers to bypass his incredibly high evasion rate (along with a crap ton of other daedra to maximize DPS). Great video as always :D

    I made a Breton Battlemage as well. I use long swords though. I just got the boots of blinding speed and made a 1 pt levitate for 60 secs spell so i just zoom around in the air slaying cliff racers before they can blink and slinging spells at rats. It's pretty sick, I gotta think of some new spells to make.

    In Morrowind, you do the exact inversion of me with my Breton, I choose Combat as specialization then for favorite attributes Agility and Intelligence. Agility to I hit more and get knocked down more and intelligence for more magicka.
    Major Skills: Long Sword, Mysticism, Conjuration, Destruction, Restoration
    Minor Skills: Light Armor, Short Blade, Alteration, Block, Heavy Armor
    Birth Sign depending on my mood: Mage or Atronach
    Restoration levels slow and is good against undead so it really helps to have it in the major skills group. Restoration allows you to heal between fights allows you to carry far less potions. I never use enchanting skill, I only use the enchanted items I find.

    Custom spells and conjuration are such a dream. You can walk around in your finest garments, but once an enemy appears on the horizon, a single spells decks you out in weightless Daedra gear and puts a gank squad at your side. That will teach those damn cave rats!

    Here's a video idea: Propylons explained/ guide.
    There's plenty of short little guides that show you where to get all the indexes, but none of them are narrated and voiced as to explain any of the lore or the why to them? If I remember right I think they are an additional Fast Travel network but for obvious reasons left unused? I'm too lazy to do the research and just want to listen to you talk about it! Lmao! I've always just used Mark and recall to Scamp Trader in Caldera and then go to the various routes from the Mage Guild guide, but I'm curious if Propylons might be able to add a benefit to a fast travel Network, or if it's just a wild goose chase?

    Man, Morrowind's magic system is so much cooler than Oblivion's and Skyrim's.

Remember those boots that would give the ability to permanently fly, but turned you completely blind at the same time?

    I personally wouldn't go Conjuration for a Battlemage. Maybe the exception would be "Bound item" spells. Something about using minions is just not Battlemage / Bloodrager etc enough. Such a character should have focus on combat(Weapon + Heavy Armor ... ideally Axe or Blunt + HA), Destruction spells(well, ofc) and Enchant. And, TWO HANDED WEAPONS! That's what a BM is to me.
    Then again, it could run afoul of being kinda similar to a Spellsword. I tend to go more Magic heavy on a BM(it is a mage with a help of combat) while a Sword is the other way around(combatant with a help from spells).

    you know, i think an amazing race that people dont consider for battlemages is the NORD.
    think about it, with a nord, with the lady birthsign, and endurance as one of your starting attributes, you will start the game with 85 endurance. that's almost maxed health gains from the start of the game.
    add to that their natural immunity to cold, resistance to shock. and the dragon cuirass giving immunity to fire, you can make yourself incredibly resilient against elemental damage.
    the best part is, the lady also gives 25 to personality, which is one of the bigger drawbacks of picking nord. and it invert you from starting with the 30, to 55.
    of course, there's a big reason people dont think of the nord as a good option, since they are too melee focused. but i genuinely think, that's not as much of a drawback as people think. outside ofthe low inteligence, that does really suck.
