Nice. Glad that stuff I said was of help.

The one I did (after watching the magnificient gif Boeroer presented) was a Pale Elf for more Per & Dex, Helwalker, with 5 Con & Res (after Berath). Still worked as a charm (in a full party). Used Aloth (Battlemage) for the Pull of Eora and Pallegina (Herald) for aura buffing.
