This build is designed to follow the lore and give the elf a more agile set-up from the more traditional heavy tank.  He focuses on agility gear, parry skills, and sword damage to keep threat.  He is comfortable using both two-handed and one-handed sword/shield styles.  He uses his ability to evade and parry more to mitigate damage rather than raw armor and his bodies constitution.  Class skills focus on quick attacks, parries, and recovering power quickly.  Legendary traits follow the same pattern.  This isn't your typical tank build, but it is just as effective as the more traditional meat-shield model.
