ESO PvP: StamDK EASY High Armor SHRED Build Tutorial | Update 40 "The Proc-DK"

[@IDONTEVERAFRAID]

I like how you put the resources needed for things i knew them but, thought it was a nice touch you a real one G

[@cameronbachman8161]

Yeah shattered feels good on dk, but i swear penetration doesnt affect shields anymore and its less bursty than something like crit or high weapon damage. I seriously think spriggons/spinners might be better over all, not to mention shattered does 0 for heals sustain or tankiness

[@tuigg8]

Oooeehh did you just unequiped bloodspawn on a dragonknight oh my days 😳

[@Flatzn]

shattering the meta and we knew what was coming :D rly glad i catched that recommendation months ago from you in another dk video, such a good set ty.

[@prisonmykee2595]

You know what’s funny the small buffs dks got got overshadowed by corrosive nerf. The people that focused on the corrosive nerf and didn’t notice the buffs were the same players that were relying on the ult to play the class.

[@zartron1]

You did a good job explaining the theory and use of the skills and gear.

[@kalender4176]

Thank you for the video. It's a good build, easy to use and pretty strong. Also very defensive, even in BG you sit in res cap with just two skill. And I have to say, it seems very practical for beginners to throw buffs in the back bar and fight only in the front bar. Also if you want, you can prolong or lock down any fight by just standing in the back bar, spamming coag and making a heavy attack sometimes. Thanks to resto staff. But don't expect it to be as strong as the actual meta builds in the game. This build has no burst damage or strong dots. Maybe master weapons would go well. Mythic items don't make much sense either.

[@tusanity]

Stuhns is same thing as Shattered except it gives 260 w/s dmg to your healing... Traditionally Xers don't run Pene sets because they don't help healing. Second... Any class with Dot's should run All BT and what you said is not accurate... BT does not proc at Low Health or Exe like you say... It procs immeditaely under 90% Health... So 1150 w/s dmg AT exe. You lose less than 300 up front w/s for healing in exchange for ramping w/s that starts instantly. I try to tell people Infused is literally for Recovery if you are in deficit. Friend wanted me to check your build video out... Looks really good... I give it a 10 still.

[@WMonster54]

Thank you for the video! I'm a returning player that decided this is the game I want to stick to, and am trying to stick with just one character to do most of the aspects of the game and will definitely give this build a shot. I was wondering if you had a werewolf build by chance? I know its nerfed dramatically compared to its old glory, but can one still be viable for the end game content or would I be handicapping myself too much? Never was a fan of vampire, but WW seemed fun. If not, thank you anyways and will definitely try out this DK. Thank you for your time!

[@gamevids7814]

Well I got a ww but I only use it if there is other ww around. Can be fun. Honestly tho vamp is kinda PvP meta for the undead passive. You either stage 3 vamp or extremely tanky. Little tip save your ww build on the armory station then get cured and take vamp curse and save it on the second slot of the armory station. Now you can just swap between both curses as you like 😊

[@Hexapug]

Unfortunately I don’t have a WW Build at the moment I have thought of setting up a Cheese DoT build for it one day, so maybe there’s hope As I never played WW in PvP because you have to specifically build and have different skills for WW in PvP unlike Vamp where it’s just slapped on for the passives and maybe one skill WW isn’t bad at all though, it can cause some high pressure and survivability if built right

[@LokiPestilence]

It's so funny to see and older build i made still stupid strong today. I made it back when wretched vitality came out before leaving. Only I use warior mundas and dont seem to have that high of pen with sword n shield back bar EDIT: Way of fire not shattered

[@Brimst0ne_XB]

Dude, your builds are great for a new player. I'm just getting into hardcore PvP so I'm not super familiar with all the buffs and what they do, how/ when to use certain abilities, rotations etc. You do a great job explaining all that to noobs like me. 😅 Not only am i getting a great build but also learning a lot about the game. 👏

[@_AMF_32]

I love the build and it shreds. Just curious why you put so much into health and not more into Stam? I had mine at 59 Stam and 5 health. Just wanting to understand it a little better.

[@RaTaTscHinG]

I'm a bit lost... the trainee does count into the markyn bonus even though it's just 1 item ? And not 3? And how do you fit 5p. Of vitality and 5 shattered plus 2 monster, 1 trainee aaand the markyn ring onto it.. or am I just stupid..?

[@MinionLeBanana]

The wretched vitality is purely on the back bar, meaning his staff. So he goes to back bar and casts either his armor buffs or igneous weapons to proc WV and goes back

[@johnebell99]

​@@MinionLeBanana How can you proc a set if you don't have the 5th piece? Sorry, trying to learn

[@MinionLeBanana]

@@johnebell99 He does have the fifth piece but only while switched to the backbar. It says he only has 3/5 WV because he is on his front bar with his shattered fate maces. If he switched to his staff it would be 5/5 WV and 3/5 Shattered fate.

Why Untamed Agression over Wrathful Strikes in Blue CP? Im just curious if there was a specifc reason there. Thanks for the video! Hope to see you on PCNA someday, really like your stuff

[@Ryu_Kage.]

Untamed Aggresion buffs your healing and is only 50 weapon damage less than the 200 you get from Wrathful Strikes and Wrathful Strikes does not contribute to your healing at all

[@YoungHumble1]

Wraithful is 4.5% Dmg done to all dmg. Untamed Agression is 3% Increased Healing and Damage. Now if you have any W/S Dmg Multipliers than it easily can become 4% Healing and 4% Dmg in terms of Base and only helps raise the free dmg and healing scaling the more you have overall.

Same exact set as yours just purple, almost same exact stats as well but I have 0 stars on my equipment bonus ?

[@gamerelated3887]

just curious, how does the lover not benefit you on your back bar?

[@Hexapug]

I’m sorry I should have worded it differently, what I meant is that our back bar is primarily used as our defensive bar so the lover doesn’t provide us any defensive benefit unlike the Thief would make our heals crit more often the Warrior would increase our heals on our back bar, while the Lover is still there when on the back bar but it doesn’t increase our heals or give us any Tankiness if that makes sense

watched whole video and liked - would love to know how you would run this but with oakensoul - obviously you would have to drop 1 set.

[@nyankatkitten3192]

So after trying this build almost strictly in cyro the sustain is great and resource management is perfect but these things are easy on a DK. However it seems to lack a he burst to kill today’s higher end players. It also lacks a very important execute that really is required to even begin to kill the better players in cyro

[@benstephens187]

Sorry if I missed it, but why the resto staff instead of Frost staff?

Would mist form be better then protective plate??

I don’t recommend it because you do move a distance however it doesn’t cleanse or grant immunity to roots and slows which is a major no for me personally However if you don’t mind that and mist works for you, it could provide you with some unique buffs and flavor

[@Hexapug]

DoT them up and just spam Flame of Oblivion and CC spam on cooldown, see them drop to about half HP Leap into a fully proc whip But at the end of the day you can’t kill everyone in PvP, people build unbelievable tanky and just Zerg you down

I forgot to mention it in the video, I personally run Resto because I prefer the passives from Resto, better heals at low health, higher Mag back from heavies, on demand Major Mending and the heavies just feel so smooth Because we don’t exactly need an Ice Staff for Ele Sus since we get access to Major Breach from Noxious, so it opens up the back bar for almost anything, but Ice Staff is definitely still good for defense

@hexapug have you compared shattered and stuhns? i run a toppling charge templar to proc off balance seems to be about 8-10 seconds of downtime. is the full uptime of 8k pen better then 6.8 with the the 2 lines of weapon damage? my thought was no but im really curious to hear your opinion?

[@Hexapug]

Ah this one, one of Life’s Greatest Questions :P I’ve spent many hours multiple days comparing and testing In short term I prefer Shattered Fate because it’s ready to go straight off the rip, not worrying about any conditions In Long term, the problem I see with Stuhn’s is that you need them Off Balance which not all classes can easily do, second sometimes you don’t have much time to burst players sometimes you only have time for 2 or 3 skills before they start roll dodge, cloak or heal spamming which can also prevent you from setting them Off Balance, because I strictly play solo so I have to use my GCD’s meticulously But that’s my Opinion, Stuhn’s is a great set if it works for your play style and preference But for the Templar that’s an extra skill you have to slot which wouldn’t work for “my play style” but if it works for you great, that’s what I love about builds, we fit to our play style

[@Hexapug]

Now that would be some true damage, Burning Spellweave is a great set, but I would highly recommend going a pen set with another w/s damage to just spike the damage to whole other level However you are sacrificing survivability with no sustain so that’s the only problem I have, because having a sustain set gives you so much tankiness with the amount of heals you can spam
