Dawnguard
00:05 - For this walkthrough I will be using my pre-existing character: Bortina the Orc. She's level 45 and mostly uses Conjuration, One-Handed Weapons, Restoration, Heavy Armor and Shields.
You will be seeing a lot of use of several weapons, items, and spells: Dead Thrall (And the use of two summons), Summon Flame Atronach, Close Wounds, Call Valor, Call Dragon, The Mace of Molag Bal, Mehrunes Razor, Dawnbreaker, Shield of Ysgramor, Morokei, Volsung, Ebony Mail, and Archmage's Robe. My main follower is Eola the Cannibal whom uses summoning.
Because of my set of skills most every strategy will involve brute force, melee damage, and defensive casting. There will be very little sneaking, talking, or archery involved.
00:25 - Some people may be confused about how to even start Dawnguard. First off, make sure that you are at least 10 or the first quest will not open up. Now, you can simply head to any town and listen to a guard. I headed to Riften, but all cities will work. After listening to a guard's rant you can head to the Dawnguard base in south-eastern Skyrim.
00:50 - Forelhost was my closest known location to the Dawnguard's headquarters. A short ride is enough to make it to the destination.
02:10 - A bear goes hostile as we entered, but my follower and thralls take care of it quickly.
02:30 - Ah, fellow recruit Agmaer. Yes, I was going to bash his brains in until he opened his soft lips. Together we head to the keep.
4:40 - Blade, er, Isran gives me a new crossbow. It's too heavy and I'm not much of a marksman, so that means Eola gets to carry it for now.
