I love how you go through each skill and it's morph and say why one or the other should be used. It gives a much better understanding of what's going on instead of just throwing out a template and say "use this because I say it works". Thank you!
As a new ESO player searched for about a week for an info or guide for dk tank and this popped up today thank you a lot for your hard work for so in depth guide really appreciate it!
As a New Tank make sure to avoid Alcast and definitely avoid "The Tank Club" because ones a meme builder and Tank CLub likes to steal builds, Their Icyheart build was a nefas build their ice staff tank was originally Xynodes Nature bounty build and their Olo Tank build which started Olo Tanking was a copy of my Day 1 summerset Tank build.
Xynode is a bad resource for tank information as well. He’ll tell you to do something one way but his tank is set up the exact opposite(like wrong traits and enchants). Also his tank builds just have way too much health 50k+ which you don’t need in this game or want in some fights(ones with max hp dots).
Xynodes level of expertise is on the same level as about 90% of every Trial Prog guild. I tend to avoid listening to them it's best for people to make up their own minds, but that's from my own personal experience. But I was playing long enough to have the knowledge needed to create a meta that changed how the whole player base does Tanking. @@o0mystogan0o
@@lewismcbride8465 tank club might recommend some wonky stuff, but the idea of an effective build being "stolen" in a game where there is often a clear, most effective build is idiotic.

Genuinely appreciate the amount of work and knowledge that went into this video. I just finished my first trial trifecta as DK tank and still learned a lot. Always reminds me of the immensely high skill ceiling for tanking. Any time I'm asked how to tank I give my own take on it and in the end refer to your videos. Really hope for more in-depth guides, especially for necro and sorc tanks. Keep it up, this is a necessary and amazing format!
Very nice to see you making videos for a broader audience. There's something in here for everyone. You show the basics that we can read from the tooltips, but also tell us from your extensive experience what really works and when you may need it. The video editing is also great! Your tempo has also slowed down to fit us who don't go for world records, but just want to learn more.
You have the best tank guides in the game! I always recommend them to everyone trying to get into tanking or wanting to improve their tanking knowledge and ability. They’ve helped me a ton!
I’ve been wanting to tank for so long, but has no idea how to do it, I just made a DK and this is everything I needed. What skills are needed when, now I just need to work on blocking and managing my stamina. Thank you!!!!!!!
I seriously appreciate your content. I can't think of another game that has a content creator that's at your level of game play AND has the in depth knowledge/understanding AND produces quality, well delivered content. 👑
Another great video! I was thinking about deleting one of my toons to make an arcanist tank but now that I know that maybe just using some Nirnhoned pieces and maybe a protective jewelry piece I can make my khajit stamarc work. Even though the subject was Dragonknight.
Im building my dk to be tank dps, two handed for when I'm tanking and dual wield axes for when im in your face dps. Its very fun to be the one leading the charge everytime
Just wanted to add that despite there being better ultimates to slot for passives, the snb ultimate can be quite handy in pugs when you need to ressurect someone
Nice video. I love my DK. Im running the old faithful set yolnahkriin. With powerful assault. For monster set im rockin the Magma incarnate helm with the Spaulder of Ruin shoulder.
Is there ever a time that max stat good is better than the recovery? I know it wasn’t talked about much but it seems a lot of tanks that I’ve spoken to prefer max stat over the triple recovery. Is there ever a time max stat (sugar skulls) would be better than the recovery food depending on dungeon/trials?
The only fight where I could see Bewitched Sugar Skulls being better is Roksa the Warped, since you have to block for a very long time and outside of that long blocking phase the fight is rather easy so you can heavy attack to make up for the lack of stamina recovery.
I thought resistance cap shouldn't be a big factor since when blocking, resistances do not apply. I learned this from Tank Club. Resistances only matter when you're not holding block. So I'm guessing people perma blocking shouldn't invest to the resistance cap while more experienced tanks that use their block when it counts should prioritize the resistance cap? Is this correct? I'm a returning player that mains tank for the past 2 years in vet content/trials after switching from a DPS main.
Resistances do apply when blocking, although they don't matter that much because combined with the block mitigation you can reduce the attack's damage to a pretty low value even with low armor. But you can't ignore armor even if you're going to permablock because not every attack can be blocked. Even if you hold your block up all the time you're going to take a lot of damage from DoTs, some AoEs, etc.
Great video, very informative and well articulated. Since your video was so well done I have a question for you that I can't seem to find a proper answer for anywhere. It's a 1 bar question actually. FTR: I'm rather new to ESO and just recently started tanking and to make life easiest for me I'd like to try 1 bar tanking first. So I was wondering if you knew exactly how the Oakensoul ring affects the back bar enchants, skills and gear? Specifically when dealing with the possible still usefulness of such things as passives, weapons enchants, and traits. In other words, does the ring completely negate everything from the back bar, or do somethings like passives, weapon enchants and/or traits still work? I realize you can't switch to and activate anything manually, but I've heard somethings still take effect. Thanks.
Thanks for the very informative video. Do you count the armor buff from puncturing remedy ser towards armor cap? I noticed that your merged skill setup for console players doesn't have a source of major resolve. Is that because you get some armor from puncturing remedy?
No, the armor from Puncturing Remedy isn't reliable enough so you'll always need a Major Resolve skill. I must've made a mistake while editing the video, the skills that should've been shown at the moment when I'm talking about console setups are the same ones as for example at 1:02:00, so look at them instead
Not that it really matters, as this won't apply to most tanks, but for beginner crafted sets, I would probably go with Daring Corsair and Spectre's Eye. As I said, though, it doesn't really matter. Obviously, I am assuming no space for heroic slash. Love the video. Point a lot of people this way.
*Armor Cap* -> Resistances are hard capped at 33,000 so once you reach 33k Spell or Physical, anything extra that you have does nothing to benefit your character. At 33k you gain 50% mitigation and for each 660 resistances, it's equivalent to 1% mitigation.
Awesome video! I dont know if someone has mentiones it but your generic dungeons setup didnt have a major resolve skill.....i swapped out altar for it in my setup :D
The Poison glyph is the only way to proc it at the moment, but next patch the stamina restoring from Combustion will also proc on Burning which is something you'll proc a lot just from your skills
in dungeon trash is there still a reason to play puncture since you already have caltrops and wall that have the same debuffs ? I was thinking of replacing it by a fighters guild skill for ulti gen or charging manoeuver or even heroic slash for minor heroism
You're right, Puncture isn't completely necessary in dungeon trash fights, you can replace it. Fighter's guild skill won't get you much ulti though since it only procs on your killing blows
How to restore stamina when using 2 ice staves? Not only on DKs, but on any class. For example, I am on boss fight, boss hits me a lot so I use block, stamina goes down to zero, but boss still hit me, what should I do? If there are heavy attacks that kill me if it not blocked?
You shouldn't be using double ice staff setup in fights where you're struggling, start off with one handed and shield and switch to ice staves only once you know the mechanics well enough to manage stamina
I was just thinking about making my first tank and this video came out! Also how would you rate dragonknight, warden and arcanist tanks in terms of easiness for a beginner?
For the weapon types section you mention that sword and board is the more defensive option - but if im at armour cap already, ice staff give me ancient knowledge passive for reduce block cost and block damage mitigation of 20% as a passive. I lose a damage shield but im already spending stamina on blocking and castinf stone giant - so keeping ice staff up for me feels more defensive?
Can anybody please tell me what armour style he is using at the start of the video? I know it’s mostly Annihilarch’s but I can’t work out the chest piece? Thanks in advance!!
It's mostly up to date, I recommend using these gear setups combined with Horn even on a Necro since it's easier to manage, Colo is great when used properly but that isn't gonna happen in pugs
I guess sax and colo aren't suitable enough for pug 4 mans? Obviously anything in pugs is "suitable" insofar that they're shit shows but it's noticeably less efficient than just horn and these sets? @@Hyperioxes

Hi me and a friend recently got back into the game and we wanna do all hm dungeons 2man. You have any experience with this ? Seems right up your alley 😂. If so what would you recommend for the tank setup and are there any dungeons that just aren't doable
Can you use a poison ( not enchant ) for your front bar weapon even if using decisive on a dk ( i want to proc combustion but still want to be on decisive trait )
It's only Poison enchant that has a higher chance to proc Poisoned status effect and proc Combustion, alchemy poisons will simply deal some poison type damage which has a very low chance to proc the Poisoned status effect since it's a DoT
Hi, I play for dc tank, there are 4 of us and we go to the dungeons. Tank, heal and 2 dd - stamina and mana, one dd has problems with penetration. And he often talks about it, I can't decide on the sets for the group, if I take a set to break through, then it will be useless to another dd. Can you help me with advice on which set to take? Find a middle ground so that everyone is happy.
I don't think reduce cost works correctly with cinder storm, I notice my magicka ticking down as normal when I cast it even with 3x infused magicka cost pieces. Bug or not idk but I tested it out of combat to check and it definitely was costing magicka to cast still.
It should cost like 50 mag/sec with 1 mag reduce cost infused, and straight up nothing with 2. Maybe its a bug . Do you have vamp on the character (maybe a cost increase)
@@ItzGenesis I remember running into something similar a while back. When using 1 glyph, it reduced it to that, but when you use 2nd one to reduce it to 0, it would simply start ticking by the old original value. Idk if that got fixed, but I remember being the only one who had that issue.
@@ItzGenesis Straight up no vamp 3x infused reduce magicka. I'm thinking it's a bug because the cost is shown as 0 but in practice it is still costing me magicka.
It’s not really worth it. At cap it’s only 673 damage. And it’s only on direct damage. If it was like 5 or 10 times that it would be nice but then it would be busted in pvp.
No, it'd be even worse in trash pulls because it'll proc on the first thing that hits you and then your enchant goes on cooldown so it gives you less control
very detailed ultra well explained guide but I still have to hard disagree, making regen tanks is just stupid as you can't regen stamina while blocking and with your own logic, "good tanks know not to perma block" - even tho again I wanna disagree, there are literal dungeon bosses on HM that light attack you for 20-25k even at full cap armor and even protections up, so again perma blocking (sadly) is the way to go, not even going to mention lags (server side, my internet is good) or bugs where a boss would do animations without you even noticing them and in fast succession so if you aren't blocking and get double tapped 20k LA you will generally die; and to circle back cause I made a huge detour, if you know not to perma block, then you can heavy attack and just get all those resources in one hit rather than waiting 6 seconds for your stupid regen to do it's job. Unless you go in prog teams that are like 0.01% of the content and players out there, doing trifectas, doing the build like that is bad, since you will end up being a "pro" tank in some pug or helping a friend and you die cause "oh no my healer didn't send me orbs" or "the other tank died and I have to tank 2 bosses and 3 ads and I don't have all sturdy so I will be out of stamina in 5 seconds". So I would stick to sturdy in most situations. I mean sure you can have like 3 sets if you are rich or crazy and just swap them around but if something happens mid fight you will probably just call a wipe rather than recover, from my perspective I came back from being solo alive in pugs and ressing everyone back up cause the "MT" died (we were on the fire dragon in vSS) in many cases. If the game would work perfectly (we even had a block bug ffs) and people played like top tier guilds, I agree with you, but saying "you're still learning the game so you use sturdy and block cost" is so wrong and elitist. Which proves me right when I join prog teams and I own even tho I've probably never done that HM before. As long as you keep your buffs and debuffs up, there is no right or wrong way to tank, unless you die which for me doesn't happen.
I don’t think the Dragonite tank is the best. Honestly, I think the Templar is the number one best right now, except for the one buff that the Templar does not get that the Dragonite pink gift to the group that’s the only thing, but if you want survivability and resource management that is 1000% Templar Templar I’ll stay in the game way longer than Dragonite by far.

Unless you go in prog teams that are like 0.01% of the content and players out there, doing trifectas, doing the build like that is bad, since you will end up being a "pro" tank in some pug or helping a friend and you die cause "oh no my healer didn't send me orbs" or "the other tank died and I have to tank 2 bosses and 3 ads and I don't have all sturdy so I will be out of stamina in 5 seconds".
So I would stick to sturdy in most situations. I mean sure you can have like 3 sets if you are rich or crazy and just swap them around but if something happens mid fight you will probably just call a wipe rather than recover, from my perspective I came back from being solo alive in pugs and ressing everyone back up cause the "MT" died (we were on the fire dragon in vSS) in many cases.
If the game would work perfectly (we even had a block bug ffs) and people played like top tier guilds, I agree with you, but saying "you're still learning the game so you use sturdy and block cost" is so wrong and elitist. Which proves me right when I join prog teams and I own even tho I've probably never done that HM before. As long as you keep your buffs and debuffs up, there is no right or wrong way to tank, unless you die which for me doesn't happen.
Skill issue
WTFrick! This doesn`t say unkillable in the title so I am not interested!
Does this guide really need to be an hour plus?

where templar
There's already a Templar guide updated for this patch
How tf do people afford the consumables lmao... The prices on PC NA are crazy af bruh.. returning, and everything is so expensive lmao.
I don’t think the Dragonite tank is the best. Honestly, I think the Templar is the number one best right now, except for the one buff that the Templar does not get that the Dragonite pink gift to the group that’s the only thing, but if you want survivability and resource management that is 1000% Templar Templar I’ll stay in the game way longer than Dragonite by far.
Everyone can’t play an Templar though
Templar one of the worst
