Should I complete Dawnguard or Dragonborn first?

Technically and story-wise you can do them in either order. However, the Dragonborn DLC is significantly harder/requires a higher level than the Dawnguard DLC - even though you are introduced to the Dragonborn DLC earlier. You get the Dragonborn quest right after you speak to the Greybeards.

Should you do Dragonborn or Dawnguard first?

Main quest, and in between, do Dawnguard, (and then Hearthfire) and lastly, Dragonborn after Main Quest. This is how Bethesda likely intended it and it makes the most sense. You can tell based on the release dates for each DLC. Dragonborn goes after Alduin and while doing so, gets involved with the vampire/dawnguard.

Should I complete Dawnguard before the main quest?

It shouldn't matter. The only change will be how you get the Dragon Elder Scroll. You'll need it for both questlines, so you'll have to get it back if you got rid of it after completing one of the questlines.

Which is better Dragonborn or Dawnguard?

No contest. Dragonborn. Dragonborn is far more interesting than Dawnguard, as you get to explore a new island with two wildly different cultures (the Dunmer and the Skaal), plus make side trips to the creepy plane of Oblivion called Apocrypha.

Can you finish Dawnguard without being Dragonborn?

You can do Dawnguard as non-Dragonborn, because I've done it (my first time to Blackreach, in fact!), BUT you will need to be prepared to cast a spell to gain access to the College (and join it), i.e. you can't use the 'I'm the Dragonborn, pal, can't you make an exception?'

What race is the Last Dragonborn canonically?

Is Serana still essential after Dawnguard?

10 Serana Is Always Essential

Regardless of whether or not you finish the Dawnguard questline, Serana will always be an essential character, and as such, you can't kill her. This is great if you want to keep Serana as a companion for the rest of the game because she can't get killed by enemies you're fighting.

What level should you join the Dawnguard?

Again, we recommend you wait until Level 10 - the game naturally builds up to the Dawnguard content by having vampires appear from level 7 up, and rumours of the Dawnguard will appear from Level 10 on, thus helping you to get wind of the quest line.
