The Silver Slayer
Skyrim
Crossbow / Two-Handed Undead Hunter
build
Published

Inspired by BADCompanySarge, the Silver Slayer is a hunter of the undead, vampires, daedrea, and werewolves

This build focuses on everything silver from weapons, armor, and jewelry, fully enchanted to give an edge over the dead

This build does not use any magic and is susceptible to magic to give some healthy challenge against mages and vampires

This is not a stealth archer build as wielding heavy armor and a two-handed sword compliments the crossbow
