Just forged a bunch of Ebony weapon sets and upped them to Epic. Two maces, two war axes, and two bastard swords.
I've completed the two maces so far. 81 points of damage each base, one with an additional 20 of frost and 26 points of magicka damage and the other with 20 of fire and 24 of shock damage. Running after a dragon on a hill yesterday and so into it I didn't see a troll couple running up on me from their lair. Then I did. Two dual wielded compound spinning mace attacks and there were two dead trolls. Didn't even have time to Fus Roh Dah either of them off the cliff like I wanted to. I don't know if I ever bothered to take my eyes off the dragon.
Things have definitely changed since I was running from one troll after unleashing my entire magicka and stamina supply with no effect. Can't wait until I actually have one of the dual wield perks to go with my single weapon double damage and maces ignore 50% armor perks. YA! Bring it!!
