konst33

Hey guys can someone plz help me? I'm new to this game and I made a high elf dragonknight..I'm level 10 and till now I was playing with dual wield, but I want to change my weapon to an inferno staff! Is that worth? And if yes can anyone suggest me any skill my weapon?

With the passives in DK (more fire damage) and also the racial passives of High Elf (elemental damage), definitely a good start to your build.

Yep- It's good. Should be able to easily pull 15-20k DPS with the right gear at VR14.

I recommend... let me find it...

I can't find it anymore, but, it's destro staff / destro staff with an AOE and a ST bar synergized around fire damage w/ 2 peice (chest / staff) Torug's pact and the rest pretty much light Martial Knowledge and then Balance / Spell Symmetry to recover magika.

ah! found it:

Thanx buddy really appreciated for your held xD

Yes, definitely go Inferno staff for a DK, ALWAYS, if you're going to be a magicka build. Since you chose Altmer, you may as well stay Magicka build because (believe me) being an Altmer makes it rough to play stamina.

Yes, sounds like a really good choice, go for it.

Here is a link to a great DK leveling guide. I do things slightly different than outlined here but for the sake of not having to draw out every little detail this is still a great leveling guide.

This is the endgame build. A goal to shoot for.

Destro/destro is the way to go yes. From a min/max perspective Altmer is 2nd best race for DK so your good there as long as you build towards magicka. The magicka build is best suited for PvE.

I'd recommend levelling up other weapons as you go, just for variety's sake. DW and Resto aren't bad choices being a magicka build. But Destro will be your go-to weapon for sure.

As the others said you are on the right track. If you get tired of destroy staff you can also do one hander and shield. The DK class abilities have plenty of offensive skills for a Magika build that in some builds you won't even have a weapon skill slotted (Talons, Flame whip, scales, dragon blood, inhale, etc...)

Don't pigeon hole yourself into using just destroy staff, make sure you level up other weapons too so you don't get bored and have more options for different builds.

Fire ring then force pulse is a great combo. 1or 2 hits from fire ring will turn force pulse into an aoe.
