  • Thanks for watching my Dragonknight DPS Guide for both Magicka and Stamina DKs. This is for PvE purposes though there is a small bit of PvP commentary when applicable. Made for Update 37 Scribes of Fate and should be good for Update 38 Necrom as well.

    Hey skinny! Just wanted to say it's good to see you again. I left ESO a little over a year ago, I just came back. I am SO happy to see you're still putting out awesome content. So much has changed, when I left melee weapons on mag toons was still rare-ish to see. When it came to DPS you were the idol to copy. Never could fully copy you but not for lack of trying. I'm looking forward to your assistance through this journey again. Thanks!

    Wings's most iconic use before was that it reflects projectiles and then stuns the enemies that were hit by that reflect. This used to be super useful against ranged magsorcs before throwing crystal frags. Then again, sorcs had a limitless scaling shield that lasted 20sec. They took those off sometime ago.

    For my second active ability I use the Lava Whip morph called Flame Lash III which has all of the same stats but deals 4404 flame damage. Targeting an off balance or immobilized enemy changes this ability into Power Lash, allowing you to lash an enemy at half cost to deal 5177 flame damage and healing you for 5177 health. Though I'm not sure if it deals more damage than Molten Whip IV.

    Would definitely love to see similar videos for different classes and even weapon/guild skill lines!
    I'm already a huge fan of how you do build videos, as they tend to be less rigid than other guides, with more gear and skill varieties presented. I think covering class, weapon and guild skill lines (and perhaps even werewolf/vampire skill lines) outside of the context of a specific build video would really help people such as myself who sometimes want to deviate from the "standard", as it were, get a better understanding of what it takes to put together a good build. Videos such as this would also synergize super well with your previous videos on DPS sets for this reason, imo.

    Also curious if you run anything different for RND's where all the fights are so short that you don't even have time to get through a rotation.

    Before they nerfed DoT damage and increased DoT duration a pretty cool set-up was to have Elfbane on the back bar.
    Burning Talons hit like a truck with its duration more than doubled and other DoTs got a very nice damage boost too.

      more medium pieces can definitely help with that. but if you need to swap noxious to engulfing, that may help out. also, if you aren't using talons, that helps a ton with stam sustain since you are casting that every 4s so whip is draining less stamina

    20:35 great reminder that some of the base game class passives are super outdated. Actually just lazy to begin with. The game design has always been that you have enough skill points accessible to take every class passive, so why not just make the skills last longer and add a more interesting passive? Sadly, I don't have any hope in zos to do anything about it now.

    • @mikehazel9991
      @mikehazel9991 Рік тому +1

      Dawnbreaker will be good ultimate before PVP as it has a really nice stun attached to it. But for PVE you want the other more for the extra 300 weapon and spell damage upon cast you never really used that ultimate although if you don't have a standard up and you're getting into execute it is still strong.

    • @initmj
      @initmj Рік тому +1

      It depends on the situation. Since Standard costs so much, sometimes you'll end up in a situation where you know you would not have time to get enough ultimate before the boss dies or teleports away or anything like that, so it might be worth it to cast Dawnbreaker instead.

    • @BirdShutterbug
      @BirdShutterbug Рік тому

      @@skinnycheeks so one build that's different doesn't make me wrong but if this build is as powerful as you say this will be the norm and every DK will be the same. Having a unique setup is a frowned upon concept in this game which is funny for a game sold around the idea of making whatever character you want. It's like oh you wanna make a big Nord warrior. Well you have to use all these skills that don't fit with what you want or sell you won't be viable. Can't even be a straight melee build it's embarrassing.

      ​@@CaptainSkylocke So to add on about the concept of having unique set-up is something most mmo rpg games tend to cast aside. It's really bad on the Destiny 2 too, but even WoW as well as Ff14 can have the same situation as you are describing. Honestly it comes down in how much sn individual really knows what they want to do on ESO after they get some great understanding to actually play with more than one setup, and just enjoy the game in general. To each their own, and maybe have more options be more viable would be great, but when it comes to live action games it really is gamble on how much s player is willing to take before moving on.
