So Mag DK's are the Champ

I do pretty well against magDKs on my magplar if I feed first. It's rough if I'm stage 4.

Also vamp mist > soul assault. It's not too hard to block on a S&B bar either even with 9k max stam.

I find soul assault most effective against medium armor builds who do not have S&B - the 2h/bow guys mostly. I get better results against most other builds using meteor, bat swarm or destro ult, then laying on the pressure while it's up. With meteor you gotta combine it with a CC that takes a while to break like Javelin so they eat it without blocking. It's not consistent but often works. Even DBoS can be strong if you combine it with other burst.

That last post kinda missed the point of the thread.

IMO a good stam DK using lingering health pots is probably the strongest overall duelist. You need to find the sweet spot between survivability, sustain, and damage to deal with the huge burst some builds can deal, but with sets like Reactive, Draugr Hulk, Spriggan, Viper, Black Rose, the options are there. The ones I see actually killing people (not just stalemating) usually run 2h/bow.

Pretty sure lingering pots are in most dueling tourneys on the grounds on being stupidly broken.

Not sure tourneys are the main point of discussion here. Dude was talking about a regular dueling circle where anything goes. I see people using immovable and lingering health pots all the time.

Well it's hard to say whats good and bad in there if anything games.

Most stam builds just spam OP trap.

If you find a sorc using imov your not going to kill them.

The CC immunity on immovable pot lasts 15 seconds. You just need to last that long before you can CC them.

Rules are the exception... and are only upheld in gentlemen's agreements and tournaments. Certainly not something to expect or count on in an every day duel in rawl.
