Oh, I wasn't suggesting you were, but that will be why the bound weapon damage is so low I would imagine.

Or you have rockjoint :D

... mage hiding behind 2 dremora and put him in full heavy armor thats enchanted and fortified and upgraded and everything else.
It's called a Sorcerer. So class system makes no difference at all.

I use a dual wielding warrior. So most of my stats are built up around Health, Stamina and of course combat skills. But I have levelled my magic and Conjuration enough to summon a Flame Atronach. Makes a fantastic tag team. I can wade into melee while I've got heavy fire support from my six. (no pun intended)

Bound Sword and the like also benfit from perks that you have in archery/one handed and two handed as well as enchants that increase damage so its perfectly viable to be a warrior or assassin who only uses bound weapons.

On master difficulty a summoned Dremora Lord is worthless at high levels. They get killed in 2 hits while barely scratching anything you fight.

I was going to say.. for fun I took my build that has 100 alchemy, smithing, and enchanting and wanted to go conjuration for fun... they all get their butts kicked and are fairly useless at higher levels on expert and master difficulty... this is with 100 skill in conjuration, at a bandit camp not far from whiterun... they just don't do enough damage. Going to go back to the save before I started enchanting the armor with conjuration stuff and before it was leveled up and instead deck out a companion with my master gear instead... and put the conjuration stuff into one handed or other stuff. Wanted to like it, but it's meh.

I built my character entirely around smithing/enchanting/alchemy with heavy armor, shields, one-handed, and bows. Trying to squeeze in sneak perks, and I'm happy to hear that we can indeed have more than 50 perks. :)

That said, I ONLY put points into my health attribute. I have no room for casting spells, so what do I do? I found a summon flame atronach staff for a minute. Recently I found a frost staff, and I'm looking for dremora/storm summoning staffs. Once I do, I'll truly not be missing out on all the summoning fun. Still, it would be nice to have 2 dremora following you around, so I'll save that for a second character. ;) AOE destruction staffs are also fun.

All i know is that the only thing that beats having one summoned Frost Atronach is having a companion NPC that also summon a Frost Atronach = 4 in your party. Having the ability to summon one more...

Also, sneaking around with a companion NPC that summons stuff while you're sneaking isn't the best of ideas. You may want to leave them at home at that point.

Can you summon two permantley?
Frost, Flame Storm Thrall spells. Where you can summon Frost, Storm, and Flame Atronachs permanently(no timer).

Dremora Lords and the lower ones though still have timers and no spell to make it permanent.
