User blog comment:Bork-The-Ork/Ups and Downs about Dawnguard DLC/@comment-5264386-20120712041007

Being a vampire lord was a great part of the DLC. I'm glad they reduced how much the sun weakens you as a Vampire Lord. It was ridiculous in the vanilla game how once you got to Stage 4, you'd get a large amount of damage, or even die, from a Novice Pyromancer throwing a Firebolt at you. Going through the Dawnguard side now to see how different it is from the Vampire side. Dawnguard is a good way to start off the DLC for Skyrim, even if it could be a little longer.
