Update: As of Anniversary Edition, Bone Wolf's Revenge no longer affects player vampires. However, the Bloodworm Helm from the Gallows Hall creation has a new necromage-like effect that does work on player vampires. There were also many gauntlets added to the game with unarmed enchantments so the new maximum would undoubtedly be higher. But how much higher? That remains to be seen.
@@Sickliff I sadly do not know who that is, I just found your videos at random suddenly. Also, the few path of exile videos I did see were either builds or lore videos. So if it is a poe youtube I most likely haven't encountered them yet.
You start to realize that you had some pretty strange choices in your life when you watch videos like this and know most of the glitches and methods used, lol. But I had absolutely no idea about argonian-vampire unarmed damage boost, that’s amazing! Thank you for all this content.
It honestly surprises me that no one found out about Argonian Vampires' unarmed power attack. I discovered it on accident looking through the creation kit.
@@cal5964 it will boost all physically damage, archery is included, he just means it excludes magical attacks. I dont know exactly but i know that bow damage is calculated by (equation of bow damage) + (base damage of arrow). so im assuming the calculation effects the first half of the calculation rather than the total with the arrow as well. which is still great, lets say you have no perks and no levels in archery, using ebony tier. the bow does 17 dam, the arrow 20 dam. usually your damage would be 37 but if you drink the potion, it would be 17x1.5= 25.5 + 20 = 45.5 not 55.5 you would expect. with perks and levels in archery idk, but im pretty sure the mult applies to the base damage only? i could be wrong on that dont quote me. But you gain more benefit from having a better bow rather than better arrows. but arrows are where a lot of your additional damage comes from when using bows.

Damn I’m really glad I found your channel. Your presentation style is both clear and entertaining and your understanding of the game makes you seem like a deadpan mad scientist.
Interesting stuff. Are you familiar with multipunching? I think that would give orcs back their edge, maybe not for the highest damage per punch, but the highest DPS as you can land 4-5 punches per attack and they'd all be doing two times the damage compared to a single punch with a x5 and x1.25 modifier.
@@Kirokill1 It’s when you spam attack and movement keys to land multiple punches during one animation which increases your dps substantially. You can find it near the end of my unarmed guide.
fun fact: Khajit dont have that much of a extra fisting damage compared to Argonians, mostly due to an oversight regarding the Claws perk not displaying the actual damage number it adds. Instead they only add a rather small number, only putting them at 12 unarmed damage instead of 15 like its displayed they do, putting them only doing 2 points more damage than Argonians
Khajiit and Argonians both have 10 base unarmed damage, but Khajiit gain 12 damage from their ability. So Khajiit have 22 unarmed damage and Argonians have 10, without any upgrades.
I never thought i'd sub to another skyrim channel in 2021, 10 years after its release, but i stand corrected. Love your vids, finding out about new stuff is damn good content!
What a coincidence; I was actually working on a female Argonian/werewolf hybrid unarmed build. Guess the Nine Divines have answered my prayers on a video to help me realize my dream. XD
ebony and daedric armor is way easier to come by than you show, you can just: - go to the bandit camp next to whiterun - acquire transmutation - transmute iron into gold - dupe gold ingots with the follower dupe - 100 smithing by crafting 3000 rings - get ebony from the orcish ebony mine - get daedra hearts for free from the merhunes dagon quest, dupe them or buy them from a merchant and reset their stock now you have access to craft every single piece of heavy armor in the game that is craftable, even ancient nord at the skyforge and stalhrim in solstheim or you can just summon daedric armor from the midden forge if you are lazy i guess
Normally, that would be a decent method, but smithing wasn't allowed in this video. I did consider using the atronach forge for Daedric gauntlets, but I wanted to show off the Ancient Nord Gauntlet bug.
@@ehotblch9602 yeah i dont really care about his rules, its more directed to the people who actually play the game without ymfah like restrictions, powerleveling smithing is way better than a 1/600 chance for dragonplate gauntlets
Well: Without crafting, but with every inch of available glitches and cheating. There were times in my life when i was fascinated by such features, but nowadays... well: Lame.
And meanwhile I just used the Vokrii perk pack, which comes with a short line of unarmed perks in the light armor tree. At level 10 and without any racial bonus, not an enemy in bleak falls could match me until the final boss. Wasn't even meant to be a brawler build.
I knew all of this about unarmed besides the argonians being stinger than cats. How much stronger are Aragonians is it that significant? Do I need to delete my build or make a argonian version? Also yes I have liked and subscribed obviously. Even hit that bell notification. You know it.
An argonian vampire's power attack is over 2 times stronger than a khajiit's with all of these buffs applied. The normal attack damage is about 150 extra with a khajiit though. I'd say if you were to change races, an orc would be more ideal because of Berserker Rage providing higher DPS potential. The argonian vampire is good specifically for dealing the highest single punch damage. Not that it isn't viable in its own right, of course
can you also make a video about strongest build possible in skyrim ? like most powerful possible build we can create in this game according to stats that would make us like a walking god.
@@Sickliff 22 base dmg +18 from gauntlets +20 from the enchantment for more unarmed dmg on the gauntlets (i think it was 20) +20% unarmed damage from the ring of the beast =72,5
yeah about bonewolf perk it not working anymore because they patch it out and let the necromage stay there. that absurd ps: Maybe you want the Fearsome Fist CC cause those new bracer/gaunlet had absurbly high base armor
god damn it.. every time I read or hear the word "knowledge" I instantly hear in my mind that asshole scammer who snuck in to someones carage to film himself in front of someone elses lamborghini yelling "knowledge"..
Someone make an overhaul to the creation club or whatever so it's "official/canon" in the game at that point since it's provided by Bethesda to fix their fuckups of deleting viable unarmed from the game. What if I want to play another race or not be a vampire at all? Am I SOL, Todd?
I understand most of the tricks and multipliers in the video, but is there a limit to how many times you can stack gauntlets? You can go into Forelhost and fight several ghosts that drop draugr armor sets. If there is no limit on how many times you could stack gauntlets then your damage could just scale limitlessly. Haven’t tackled this glitch yet so Idk for sure what limits apply. If you play a male argonian, I assume you would lose about 1500 damage when subtracting agent of dibella and the lover perk
@@Sickliff among glitches, seems a bit on the exploit side. I was thinking of making an argonian tribal character, so I want to see how far I can get with hth as well as certain primitive looking weapons
It's kinda sad that you need to break Skyrim over the knee and exploit it to hell and back to make something other than stealth archer build viable( Well, this build is much more than just "viable", it's literally game-breaking, but i think my point still stands. Also idk if it was done with Unofficial patch, but note that with it, the necromage perk is fixed so it doesn't affect you, only your summoned minions. Frankly, i think every build should be done with the Unofficial patch.
@@Sickliff Oh yeah i did. Argonians' *5 unarmed but ONLY when they are vampires is hilarious XD Imagine if you need to justify it with lore. What, are all their nails now vampire fangs? To they drink hist by feeding it to their victims first and then impaling them on their fang-scale-nails? Now that's some head-canon. Thanks for the vid, it was fun to watch!
Is it still available to do the hybrid when i am already started as a vamp lord before i turn into q werewolf? Or do i have to cure myself witha black soulgem before reconverting?
@@Sickliff no, like what if i side with harkon and he has already turned me into a vampire lord? Im guessing the option for serana to turn me to avamp lord wknt show up right?
@@gluxetv8327 It will because you won't be properly flagged as a vampire. Just make sure you've transformed into the vampire lord form at least once beforehand.

The amount of bug abusing and cheating is unbearable lol Although now I know that argonians get 5 multiplier on unarmed damage when becoming a vampire, that's new, but is probably fixed by unofficial patch
