Once the third word of power is obtained, the effects of the Dragon Aspect shout are quite staggering and impressive. It should be noted that using Equilibrium to lower your health to the necessary 50 percent will not cause the Ancient Dragonborn to be summoned the damage must come from an enemy. The Ancient Dragonborn is capable of using multiple shouts such as Unrelenting Force and Frost Breath and is garbed in a full set of ethereal Dragonplate Armor.
Once the second word of power for this shout is acquired, an Ancient Dragonborn will be summoned to assist the Dragonborn should their health fall below 50 percent. Each word of power also adds more to the visual appearance of the abstract dragon armor. With every word of power obtained, these effects rise greatly. When Dragon Aspect is active (with all three words of power) the Dragonborn is enveloped in an ethereal set of dragon armor for a short time, along with a huge bonus to power attacks, a massive armor rating increase, increased fire resistance and frost resistance, more powerful shouts and a decrease in shout recharge time. As the name implies, the Dragon Aspect shout allows the Dragonborn to take on the aspect and power of a dragon.
